Who of last years 53 don't make it this year?

[seabowl]

Gonna be some interesting decisions this year.

Gonna be some interesting decisions this year.

At a guess, BJ Daniels, Tukuafu, Norwood, Lewis, Milton for the offence
King or Dobbs on D. Taken from final roster on Wiki

 

[NewJerseyHawk]

Simon or Tye Smith or Mohamed Sensai

Norwood or Kevin Smith

Will Blackmon or eventually Jeremy Lane/Marcus Burley

Tukafu or Derrick Coleman

I sense another trade coming and feel better about Jesse Williams and King on Practice Squad after release of Tony McDaniel.....having McDaniel essentially looks like a huge loss, but after last night, feel better about Williams filling in if there is depth needed.

If there is a way to trade for an offensive lineman or sign Samson Satele, we'll do it after Week 1....after week one is when contracts aren't guaranteed for anyone on the roster, so Nowak likely starts the opener and if he struggles with the Rams, we'll see Satale after that.

Obervations on Terry Poole need to be made at RT, he looked overmatched at left tackle....Garry Gilliam is next years left tackle folks, whomever steps up at the RT is the question. Gilliam played all night and looked pretty mobile and improved. Seattle essentially played 3 playoff teams in the preseason, so all things considered, pretty positive outlook, even without the safeties.

Another observation was the aggressive D called by Richard, which was a welcome sight....it created some sacks, but gave up the 70 yard TD to Oliver on the missed tackle by Murphy.

Not a snowball's chance in hell Tharold Simon gets cut. He may well start over Cary Williams.

I think Norwood's toast. Kevin Smith brings decent return capabilities as a backup to Lockett though not sure he survives the cut to 53 either.

Blackmon looked poor last night. No surprise to me if he gets the ax. A healthy Lane ain't goin' anywhere either.

You beat me to it, there is no way Simon goes especially after he looked very good last night. If Cary Williams doesn't start I would expect him to get cut if it gives them any cap relief, his contract is way to big for a back up. I agree that Norwood is done and I hope they either keep Smith or Kasen Williams. I like Daniels but way more potential as a WR in the other 2 guys.

I don't think after last years success Tukuafu gets cut.

 

[Seafan]

Tukuafu, Norwood, Lewis, King, Milton, Allen.

I will probably take flack for this one but imho, Kearse,Lockette, and coleman shouldn't make the final 53.

 

[nanomoz]

Lockette. His ST abilities look to have been replaced by players that are also better at their primary position.

 

[Sports Hernia]

I think Norwood will be gone unless he is injured. Blackmon might be on that list too.

 

[bigDhawk]

Lockette. His ST abilities look to have been replaced by players that are also better at their primary position.

ST is Lockette's only real cotribution, and he has been invisible on ST so far this preseason. He likely won't be missed if we move on.

 

[MORGULON]

It appeared to me that Cary Williams was getting abused by the Chargers.

This might be nitpicking but half the players you mentioned weren't on the team last year...Will Blackmon, Seisay, Poole, and Tye Smith to be exact. The question posed was which of last years 53 players don't make the team.

 

[Overseasfan]

Reshaun Allen and David King are locks for not making the roster. Dobbs, Helfet, Jackson, Lewis, Lockette, Milton, Terrell and Tukuafu are definitely on the bubble.

...and yet

at the biggest moment in Seahawk History, we count on him, not Lynch, Not Wilson, .. No, Lockette to make the winning catch in the SB.

amazing.
