Pretty good list.  I think Jordan may be in trouble, particularly if they see someone they like on the waiver wire. 

 

Spence or Sample will get cut.  They will keep Ossai on roster so they have a chance to activate him later in the season.  He'll go to IR later.

Yeah, those and a few other "issues" could change things a bit.  Not knowing how bad his knee really is, I just pushed Ossai straight to IR for this list.

I thought they said he was done for the year?

I like this list, though if they are going to keep that many WRs/TEs I think I'd go with an extra TE as I've been more impressed with Wilcox or Schreck than I have Taylor.

I think the question is..., if there's any chance Ossai can be around at the end of the season do you cut and resign someone like Noah Spence or another veteran that will work with you.  If there's no chance, then just move him straight to IR.

At minimum they can PUP him and make that call later.

Yes, yes you do.  Bottom of the roster DEs are all over the place.  It's worth a shot.

I'm sure Wilcox will go on some sort of IR.  Didn't show on TV but he was really in la la land after being beheaded, wandering around, Miami player picked up his helmet and handed it to another Bengal.  Led off the field and straight to the tent.

However, he held on to the ball unlike others I can think of.

Thaddius Moss is really small for a tight end.

Now that you mention it, they did show it on TV, I'm guessing a concussion?

Most likely a concussion. 

 

I think a 4th TE comes down to what happens with the back end of the offensive line. If they cut Jordan, then add a 4th tight end.  Also curious if the rookie center showed enough to trade Price (probably not though).  Jacques Patrick is another question mark.  Did he do enough to make at least the initial roster or do you cut him and hope you can get him moved to the PS.

I would say he is short, but pretty thick.  Looks like he can take a lick.  Doesn't look very fast either.  If he runs good routes he could be very effective vs. zone defenses.

And he catches the ball extremely well

6’ 3” is small?  Wow!  Sample is only 1 inch taller.  Do you mean his body is and has not developed in growth? 

 

 

Thaddius Moss - 6'3, 249 lbs

 

Drew Sample - 6'4, 258 lbs

 

 

9lbs different. No idea if Moss has the frame to add 9lbs of muscle 

 

 

For reference Travis Kelce is 6'5, 260

I would agree with the OP that Moss appears shorter than 6’3”.  Wouldn’t be the first time an athlete’s measurements were stretched a bit. None the less, who cares if he can play?
