assuming the rest of the WR corps stays healthy....who do you make inactive? copper seems like a give in right now, but do they roll with 5 active wr's? i don't think so

how many were active against the 9ers?

They'll definitely be keeping five. Payton does run a pretty good amount of four wide sets, so it would make sense to have five WR's on the active roster.

Colston
Patten
Moore
Henderson
Meachem

i know they'll keep 5, but i don't think they'll activate all 5 with how thin they are at TE and DB due to injuries (i certainly don't think anything is definite)

if you have 4 healthy WR's, you may need to beef up other numbers at other positions

how many were active this week?

i wonder if that was due to stecker still missing time?

if stecker was healthy, would copper have been active?

i think it poses an interesting problem for payton....if you activate all 5 wr's, you could end up taking depth from another position (mainly TE) and if you have a healthy colston, patten, moore, meachem and henderson....do you need 5?

They started the year with 6 active, with the 5 that are being listed and Copper. I'm not sure exactly what he should do, but I think they like Copper on ST and with the way Meach has been playing, its likely he'll be active from here on out.

Copper returned a kick in the 2nd half, he played.

I think you keep 6 active. At least 5.

I agree, they'll probably keep 6. Copper will be the sixth WR, at least just for his ST play
