With NFL teams mandated to get down from 90 to 75 men by 3 p.m. Tuesday, here’s my 53-man roster prediction. Also, please keep in mind that suspended players, like cornerback Sean Smith, don’t count against the 53-man roster.
Quarterbacks (3)
u25aa Alex Smith, Chase Daniel, Aaron Murray. Smith is the clear starter, and Daniel is the clear No. 2 — and a very good option if Smith goes down at any point. Murray has made some strides as a passer the last few camps and remains an interesting developmental option. Tyler Bray has not participated in organized team activities or training camp and could once again be ticketed for injured reserve.
