Saturday open thread: Which ‘bubble’ player are you hoping makes the Lions’ final roster?

It’s the worst day on the NFL calendar.

By 4 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon, all NFL teams will have to cut down their roster to 53 players. While many teams got a head start earlier in the week, the Detroit Lions are making essentially all of their moves on cutdown day. Thus far, only one player—wide receiver Chris Lacyhas been waived, meaning Detroit will have to make 26 more moves to reduce their roster to the league maximum.

For many players, there’s no reason to worry. Their roster spots have been safe since the beginning of camp.
