On Red Rain last week, I prefaced the list of my 53-man roster hopefuls by saying that the key to great roster decisions is determining which players to protect from waivers and which players would most likely pass through waivers.
The ultimate goal is not to lose any players you want to have on the 53 + 17 = 70-man team.
Yesterday, after the Cardinals’ initial 53-man roster was posted, I wrote this tweet:
On Red Rain last week, in my 53-man, I took Carter over Dallas, Chisena over Pascal, Hayes over Gaines, Stille over Collier, Barnes as 4th ILB, and Cameron Thomas over Dimukeje.
