OK ... I'm not naming the obvious ones but here's a few

QB - I think David Fales stays as back-up and Bryce Petty makes the practice squad.
K- I think Jason Sanders stays
RB - I think both Ballage and Perry stay and possibly Howell on the PT.
WR - I think Isiah Ford stays but Leonte Caroo is gone

On defense the only two "names" I think are on the bubble are Tony Lippett and Kendall Langford. I think Lippett will get a pass coming off an injury but could be wrong.

On another note we may have three rookie starters in game one. Our 1, 2 and 3 picks or Minkah Fitzpatrick, Mike Gesicki and Jerome Baker are all on pace to be starters. That would have to make this one of the best drafts in forever!

Not to derail but I read the same article in the Sun Sentinel talking about the first 3 draft picks from this year being starters.  My take on it worries me.  My first thought was "Does this mean their first 3 draft picks are that good or does it mean the team is so bad that the first 3 draft picks are starting?"

I still don't know why we didn't retain Moore. I'd feel a lot more comfortable with him over Fales or Osweiler backing up Tannehill.

With Moore you know what you have. If Fales keeps getting better he may have a higher ceiling. The Bills got rid of Tyrod Taylor ... not because he was a bad QB but because they knew he would never be good enough to take them to the top.

Guess it's a moot point. Until the O line crumbles and Tannehill gets mangled. Then they probably go and resign Moore, hahaha. Unless someone already picked him up.
