No_Matter_What Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Our draft is over, so here is my first look at 2024 roster. I included 9 rookies, I guess all of them have a good chance. I know a lot will change; this is just a projection for fun/discussion. 51 players already on the roster. I am pretty sure we add veteran WR through FA or trade, and I also think we will sign some cheap vet CB. I listed some other relevant players who did not make it. Edit: After Cephus signing I don't expect FA WR soon, so I put Hamler in. What do you guys think? Rookies are in green. Offense (25) QB: Allen, Trubisky (2) OT: Dawkins, Brown, Van Demark, Collins, Grable (5) IOL: McGovern, Torrence, Edwards, Van Pran, Anderson (5) WR: Coleman, Samuel, Shakir, Hollins, Shorter, Hamler (6) TE: Kincaid, Knox, Morris, Gilliam (4) RB: Cook, Davis, Johnson (3) Not included – Doyle, Clapp, Clayton, Shorter, Isabella, Cephus Defense (25) DE: Miller, Rousseau, Epenesa, Solomon, Toohill (5) DT: Oliver, Jones, Carter, Johnson, Williams (5) LB: Milano, Bernard, Williams, Ulofoshio, Spector (5) CB: Douglas, Benford, Elam, Johnson, Hardy, FA (6) S: Bishop, Edwards, Rapp, Lewis (4) Not included – Jonathan, Ankou, Morrow, Hamlin, Ingram ST: Bass, Martin/Haack, Ferguson (3) Edited: Hamler, Williams, Toohill in, Morrow, Jonathan out Edited April 28 by No_Matter_What 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YodaMan79 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) I hope K.J. Hamler can get his hamstrings healthy and fill that WR void. He can play in the NFL, but is he available? Edited April 27 by YodaMan79 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) If we still had diggs or trade for a Metcalf/Aiyuk after June 1, the outlook looks totally different. The only question mark would be Von giving us what Floyd did. Coleman/samuel are upgrades over Gabe and Harty/Sherfield. Van Pran will be better than Morse sooner than later. Bishop/KC safety are upgrades over over 33 year old Poyer and Hyde. Got younger at RB and DT. Edited April 27 by BuffaloRebound 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Y’all are way too down on this roster… (I say this under the belief we add/trade for another legit WR) Elite QB Good OL Good RB’s Good TE’s (TBD) WR Room Strong DT Rotation Von-Dependent DE Rotation Good LB’s Good CB’s Solid Vet Safeties + Bishop 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alg Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 This lineup is stronger than last year. We are rid of WR drops and bad attitudes. Our safeties will outperform our old heroes. We will get better IOL play. And Coleman will make more highlight reels and game-winning catches than anyone in the 1st round. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 WR needs help. Edge will be an issue if Miller is last years version. another edition of every draft pick makes the team or starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can say that. All you can say is that the WR room is inexperienced. Also to only discuss the WR room is to ignore two other key players in the passing game Kincaid and Cook. I wonder how Packers fans and the media ranked the Packers WR/TE group entering last season that featured 6 1st and 2nd year players. That seemed to work out ok as they hauled in 255 catches for 3177 yards and 28 TDs, with no player having more than 96 targets or 793 yards. Talk about a balanced attack. David and Diggs are the past, and they stunk last year. Time to move forward with Samuel and the kids.

GoBills808 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 ^^i think we'd all feel a lot better about the WRs if they were getting coached up by someone from the shanahan tree 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFan Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) I think the quality of this roster is about the same last year, but with more youth and therefore more upside. QB is Allen The RB room is better with Cook, Johnson and Davis The TEs are the same, except Kincaid is poised to become a bigger piece of the offense. The O line lost the aging Morse, but has better depth now with the addition of Van Pran who could challenge for a start job this season. I actually think the WR room is less proven but has significantly more upside. Don't forget that Diggs after week 6, Davis, Sherfield and Harty all sucked last year. Only Shakir's breakout saved the group from truly being terrible. I'm coming around on Coleman after reading his gauntlet drill speed (20 mph+) and I was astonished at Shakir's improvement last season, especially when the stats after week 6 showed that he was our most effective pass catcher in terms of yard (total), yard/att and explosive plays. On defense The DT's are the same in Jones and Oliver, but with better depth. The Edge rushers are possibly worse on paper because of the loss of Floyd, but could be better as Rousseau returns to his natural position and Miller is health again The LB room is as deep as it's ever been and has Milano back and ascending pros Benard and Williams The CB starters all return in Douglas, all-pro Taron Johnson and emerging star Benford The safeties are a question with Edwards and Rapp now starters, but Hyde and Poyer were not exactly what they once were and Beane added a possible starter in Bishop in the draft. 14 minutes ago, Mikie2times said: Last year Houston was largely considered to have the worst WR core in the NFL. I don't think people are saying that any longer with Collins, Dell and Dalton Schultz. I wonder how our friend Stef is going to feel playing 4th fiddle to those 3?
