OL (9)

Alejandro Villanueva, Matt Feiler, Maurkice Pouncy, David DeCastro, Chukwuma Okorafor, Zach Banner, Stefen Wisniewski, Kevin Dotson, Derwin Grey

Like many of the earlier positions, the top eight are set here, as they are either returning from last year or moderate investments from the offseason. With the new practice squad rules as well, it isn’t unlikely that the team only carries eight guys, but I’m in the Derwin Grey camp and think he should pop at camp.

As of now, the biggest question is RT (assuming Matt Feiler shifts inside). While Zach Banner saw work as the eligible blocking TE, he wasn’t a constant fixture on the line. Even worse, Chukwuma Okorafor seemed to regress last year as he was a constant inactive. Hopefully one of these guys can prove themselves this year, but it is a question mark heading into camp.
