Roster "Locks" as of today

This is just the list of guys with virtually no chance (barring injury) of being cut and not being on the opening day 53 man roster. There are plenty of guys not included who are close to being locks, but I have not included them because I cannot say with 100% certainty.
QB: Brees
RB: Ingram, Sproles, Thomas
WR: Colston, Moore, Morgan
TE: Graham, Watson
OT: Streif, Brown, Armstead
OG: Evans, Grubbs
C: DLP
DL: Smith, Jordan, Hicks, Bunkley, Jenkins
LB: Butler, Gallete, Wilson, Lofton, Hawthorne
CB: Greer, Lewis, Robinson, White
S: Vaccaro, Jenkins, Quddus
LS: Drescher
K: Hartley
P: Morstead
I did not include guys like Vilma, Cadet, Harper, Jed Collins, Stills, Toon, and Coleman even though I am about 95% sure that those guys will make the roster.
So I have 35 roster "Locks". Then 7 more guys who I think are near locks.
Anyone I am leaving off that you would consider a lock or near lock?

Between Harper and Jenkins, Harper is a better bet to make the team. We have some serious cash tied up win him.

Looking at our defensive players, if they grasp and buy in to Ryan's defense and a couple players pan out, the D could actually be pretty good. At the very least it will be markedly better than last year.

I wouldn't call Jenkins a lock, especially since they can cut him and save over $2mil.

Lock in Rufus Johnson bruh
Posted on 4/29/13 at 11:09 am to Fun Bunch
I wouldn't put Vilma at 95%
Posted on 4/29/13 at 11:23 am to Fun Bunch
Harper is a lock. He is 100% guaranteed (contract wise), theyd be a fool to release him. Vilma is a lock, he restructured and I want to say they wrote him a check when he did. I believe Stills or Toon is a lock, not sure which one. Collins is also a lock, they will use a FB.

I don't think Charlie Brown is a lock. He definitely could win the LT spot or the backup role, but we have 2 guys that could beat him out and I think they'd keep Armstead as a backup over Brown.
I'll say the same thing about Strief. We have guys that could beat him out and are much cheaper. Strief is around 3rd or 4th in saving us
against the cap($2.25 mil). I think he stays over Brown as veteran depth if he doesn't win the starting job.
I don't think Malcom Jenkins is a lock by any means. He's tied for saving us the most against the cap if cut($2.5 mil) and we have a couple of youngsters that could replace him along with a vet backup in Leonhard.
PRob is only a lock because he would cost us money against the cap if cut.
I would add Coleman as a DE lock(I know you have him as 95%). Doesn't cost us anything to keep(vet minimum player) and he knows the system and followed Ryan from Cleveland to Dallas to here. He's the new Prioleau.
Also add Collins as a lock at FB(I know you have him at 95% but imo it's a 100%).
I would agree with all the other guys you have as 95%ers
I'd put Brown and Jenkins at slightly about 50%. I'd put Strief about 75% unless we cut him to sign a better RT.

I would remove Strief Smith Jenkins Armstead Wilson Hartly and add Collins and as much as it pains me....harper

I wouldn't consider Malcolm Jenkins a "lock"
Posted on 4/29/13 at 1:46 pm to Fun Bunch
I don't think will smith is a lock personally
Posted on 4/29/13 at 1:54 pm to Fun Bunch
Kenyon Coleman at DE is probably a lock, at least for this year.
Posted on 4/29/13 at 2:16 pm to Fun Bunch
I question whether Hartley is a lock...they need to bring in some serious competition
Posted on 4/29/13 at 4:29 pm to Fun Bunch
I think they'll for sure keep all 3 safeties if only because Harper plays a significant role in the scheme and Jenkins is on the end of a pretty reasonably cheap deal.
Now, after this year, all bets are off. Especially if Vaccaro turns out to be as solid a player as I think he will.

Kenyon Coleman and Jim Leonard?

Dear god, I really hope Armstead is legit, because reading the depth at T is making me nauseous.
