BearFan PHX Posted yesterday at 02:28 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:28 AM Ok, so here's my swing at a 53 man roster right now. The ??????? slots will be filled either by guys currently on the roster (in parenthesis) or by grabbing someone else's cast off. All this assuming no trades that take guys from our roster too. So lets talk - did I put anyone on that isnt gonna make the 53? Are any of the guys in parenthesis locks? Closest I see to that is Amagadje, but I left that one open in case anyone wants to promote someone else. 2025 Bears 53 Man Roster QB (2) Caleb WIlliams Tyson Bagent RB (4) D'Andre Swift Kyle Monongai Roschon Johnson ??????? (Brittain Brown, Royce Freeman, Travis Homer, Ian Wheeler) WR (6) Rome Odunze DJ Moore Olamide Zacchaeus Luther Burden Devin Duvernay ??????? (Maurice Alexander, JP Richardson, Samori Toure, Jahdae Walker) OL (10) Joe Thuney Drew Dalman Darnell Right Jonah Jackson Braxton Jones Theo Benedet Ozzy Trapilo Ryan Bates Luke Newman ??????? (Kiran Amagadje, Bill Murray, Jordan McFadden, Doug Kramer, Chris Glaser, Joshua Miles, Ricky Stromberg) TE (3) Colston Loveland Cole Kmet Durham Smythe DL (10) Montez Sweat Grady Jarrett Andrew Billings Dayo Odeyingbo Gervon Dexter Austin Booker Chris WIlliams Shemar Turner Dominique Robinson ??????? (Daniel Hardy, Zacch Pickens, Xavier Carlton, Jonathan Ford, Taroh Kpassagnon, Jamree Kromah) LB (5) Tremaine Edmunds TJ Edwards Noah Sewell ??????? ??????? (Ruben Hyppolite, Amen Ogbongbemiga, Swayze Bozeman, Power Echols, Carl Jones) S (4) Kevin Byard Jaquan Brisker ??????? ??????? (Elijah Hicks, Jonathan Owens, Alex Cook, Millard Bradford, Tysheem Johnson, Mark Perry, CB (6) Jaylon Johnson Kyler Gordon Tyrique Stevenson Nashon Wright Josh Blackwell ??????? (Tre Flowers, Zah Frazier, Mekhi Garner, Kaleb Hayes, Nick McCloud, Jeremiah Walker) ST (3) Cairo Santos Tory Taylor Scott Daly Some Practice Squad guesses, many of which could make the 53: Kiran Amagadje JP Richardson Jordan McFadden Ruben Hyppolite Zah Frasier Austin Reed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted yesterday at 10:00 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 10:00 AM I think they only keep 5 WRs because of the ability to move Loveland to the outside and running a lot of 12 personal. Kiran will be on the roster, I dont think they expose him to waivers. Ruben and Amen will be last 2 LBers. Blackwell hasnt practiced for a few weeks, so I think Nick McCloud could slide in there. The majority of final roster spots will be controlled by who is healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted yesterday at 06:59 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 06:59 PM I think Hyppolite, Ogbongbemiga, Hicks and Owens are all but locks. Then probably Frazier and Homer. Ogbongbemiga and Hicks are core special teamers, as is Owens and Hicks. I think the last OL, DL, and WR will probably be the toss ups with Amegadje, Pickens/Ford as the leaders. Poles mentioned Jahdae Walker by name which was surprising to me in regards to camp standouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think that the bottom few spots might be filled by camp cuts from other teams Youre probably right about the 2nd string safeties too, but i kind of feel like there might be more shakeup there than we are expecting.

RE: Hippolyte so it'd be Hippolyte vs Sewell as a starter? Cool. I didnt assume anyone doesnt make the squad, just left the slots open for debate. I dunno if Hippolyte is quite ready for prime time, but he certainly has attributes and will stick around this team one way or another. I think LB is one of only two positions I had two slots open for (safety is the other), and i was just wondering whether Hippolyte would go to the practice squad if he isnt a starter to gain experience before we bring him up - its not a knock on him at all. Thats why I put him where he was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If on the practice squad, his speed will attract attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If on the practice squad, his speed will attract attention. I simply think the Bears are too high on him to give up this early. Who else do we have as the 4th LB? Ogbon? Hippolyte is just relying on his old habits of watching the plays and then running faster than everyone else to get there. He needs to improve his ability to read plays and react sooner, then he can stand out. It obvious on film, he knows it too and said as much in his most recent press conference. In the meantime he needs to become a core special teams player. Let's coach him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the things on all the other stuff that's harder to assess: special teams/meeting rooms, assignment-sound, intangibles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I'm curious whose returning kicks. I sure don't think it's Maurice Alexander. I thought Dueveny was the guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is breaking news to me. Did they say why Zah missed most of camp? To me he should be a ps player since he is so far behind the curve.
