    Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    Please post your final roster in this thread. You may include an optional write-up, but all I really ask for is your full roster with your offense and defense depth chart with a brief philosophy explanation. Deadline is 4/23 at 12:00 PM ET.

    Reminder: All teams must have 53 players. No more, no less.

    KR/PR- Adam Jones/Tyler Lockett


    Balanced Offense, relying on the run to set up "big plays" down the field on play action.... Matthews and Hill are bruiser type RB's controlling the clock and tempo... AJGreen, Jones, Sanu and Lockett make for a formidable WR core... while Bernard offers a 3rd down back capable of blocking, running or going out for a swing pass... Te's are block first guys with different Offensive arsenals.. Chandler is a Goal Line terror, Eifert is a vertical TE capable of stretching the field and Henry ran a 4.62 40 at his pro day at 250 lbs so he is a speedster at the position who is also suited for an HB role... will be used similar to Ladaruius Green of the Chargers....

    Defense- front four are a sack machine with great girth inside to stop opponents running lanes... Hardy/Dunlop/Hunt and Dupree form a fearsome foursome on the outside as pass rushers.... with such depth fatigue will not be a factor --- LB are big and steady thumpers... and the DB's are blanket cover guys on the outside and leathal Thumpers in the middle

    Re: Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    Miami Dolphins


    Work in Progress

    Rookie
    Trade
    Free Agent Signing

    QB

    1. Ryan Tannehill $4,030,887
    2. Austin Davis $510,000
    Tannehill showed alot of progression last year posting career highs with 4,000 yards and a 28/12 TD/INT ratio. This year we have beefed up the offensive line and added a top 5 WR. We believe he is set to establish himself as a top 10 QB this season. Davis showed some potential starting 8 games and finishing with a positive 12/9 TD ratio

    RB
    1. Lamar Miller $781,500
    2. Steven Jackson $510,000
    3. Bobby Rainey $510,000
    4. Damien Williams $510,000
    5. Mike Davis $479,529

    Miller is fresh off his first 1,000 yard season. He excelled posting a career highs 5.1 YPC and 38 receptions as the lead back. Jackson was brought in to be a veteran presence and may get some short yardage carries. Rainey showed promise at times in Tampa. Davis is a guy we are very high on as an all around back out of South Carolina

    WR
    1. Julio Jones $10,176,000
    2. Mike Wallace $12,100,000
    3. Jarvis Landry $789,752
    4. Eddie Royal $5,000,000
    5. Rishard Matthews $673,403
    6. Leonard Hankerson $510,000

    We are providing Tannehill with the best and deepest WR unit in the league. Julio will provide Tannehill with a dominant WR presence that he hasn't had yet in his young career. Wallace will continue to stretch the field opposite of Julio, but proved to be more than just a deep threat, tying a career high 10 TDs last year. Landry excelled as a rookie with 84 catches and should continue to grow, especially with the attention that Jones/Wallace will demand. Royal provides excellent depth. Matthews and Hankerson are young guys that we will continue to develop.

    TE
    1. Jordan Cameron $3,000,000
    2. Dion Sims $701,888
    3. Jeff Cumberland $510,000
    4. Arthur Lynch $482,825

    Cameron replaces Clay and gives Tannehill a big redzone target that was missing in previous seasons. Sims really grew as an all around TE last year, and is among the best blocking TEs already. Cumberland will provide a receiving threat and depth. Lynch was promising rookie in 2014, but was placed on IR all year.

    OL
    1. Branden Albert $10,725,000
    2. Ja'Wuan James $1,914,545
    3. Rodger Saffold $8,250,000
    4. Clint Boling $4,000,000
    5. Brian De La Puenta $510,000
    6. Billy Turner $723,000
    7. Joe Berger $510,000
    8. Marshall Newhouse $510,000

    Albert and James provides the OL stability at the Tackles position and should be Tannehill plenty of time to throw. Saffold and Boling were brought in to upgrade the interior OL and gives us the best OL we've had in some time. De La Puenta provides a good veteran presence at Center. Berger has the flexibility to backup both G and C. Turner has major upside at both guard and RT.

    DE
    1. Cameron Wake $10,450,000
    2. Kroy Biermann $1,000,000
    3. Adrian Clayborn $1,000,000
    4. Cedric Reed $477,870

    Wake had another typical season, notching another pro bowl appearance with 11.5 sacks. Clayborn and Biermann will compete to start opposite Wake. Biermann led the Falcons in sacks last season and Clayborn showed alot of promise in 2013 before missing most of 2014 with injury.

    DT
    1. Marcell Dareus $8,060,000
    2. Earl Mitchell $4,500,000
    3. Anthony Johnson $510,000
    4. AJ Francis $585,000
    5. CJ Mosley $510,000

    Dareus was arguably our biggest offseason addition. Dareus is one of the best all around DT in the league. Just entering his prime at the age of 25, he recorded 10 sacks while also doubling as one of the best run blockers in the league. Mitchell provides some additional interior pass rush opposite Dareus. Mosley, Francis, and Johnson are all young guys you have flashed at points in their career

    LB
    1. Alec Ogletree $1,917,279
    2. Akeem Ayers $1,500,000
    3. Jelani Jenkins $703,172
    4. Chad Greenway $1,000,000
    5. Sean Spence $816,345
    6. Jordan Tripp $550,700
    7. Chris McCain $510,000

    Jenkins suprised alot of people last year and stepped up to lead the team in tackles (110) and providing 3.5 sacks and 2 FF. He showed good ability in coverage will be counted on alot in our nickel package. Ogletree is a guy that we are very high on and believe he has the ability to play both WLB and MLB. He had a great season with 111 tackles, 4 FF (10 in 2 seasons) and 2 INT. Jenkins and Ogletree will give us alot of speed and coverage ability in the middle of the field. Ayers will be the other starter in our base defense. He really came on after a trade to NE, totaling 4 sacks in 9 games. He finally showed the potential that made him a 1st round pick a few years ago. Greenway provides the unit with a veteran presence. Tripp, McCain and Spence are all young guys that upside that we will continue to develop.

    CB
    1. Brent Grimes $10,000,000
    2. Aqib Talib $6,968,750
    3. Ronald Darby $573,450
    4. Jamar Taylor $988,950
    5. Will Davis $722,800

    Grimes and Talib will make up an excellent 1-2 duo. We were surprised when Darby fell to the 3rd round and was to good of a value to pass up. He should compete with Taylor for nickel duties with the loser providing a great presence as the #4

    S
    1. Reshad Jones $7,760,000
    2. Da'Norris Searcy $4,000,000
    3. Stevie Brown $510,000
    4. Michael Thomas $585,000
    5. Walt Aikens $613,977

    Jones played at a pro bowl level after missing the first 4 games due to suspension. He is an in the box safety with playmaking ability. Searcy broke out last year and will provide a ball hawking presence (3 int) in the back end of the secondary. Brown has the flexibility to play both safety spots. Thomas and Aikens are both young guys that we are going to continue in invest in.

    Spec
    1. Caleb Sturgis $621,140
    2. Mat McBriar $510,000

    2015 KC Chiefs Roster

    Salary Total

    $125,815,045.00

    (Dead Money = $10,950,370)

    Offensive Spending - $49,782,876
    Defensive Spending - $74,639,756
    Special Teams - $1,392,413

    * The remainder of my salary has been set aside for snacks for the Offense and Defensive Lines (Specifically AM Cruchwraps).

    All starters in bold

    West Coast Offense

    • The Chiefs offense will utilize Smith’s ability to be efficient with high percentage short and intermediate routes to manage the clock in order to control the game. The passing attack will set up a running game utilizing a stable of backs that will be rotated in based on the down and situation. We traded away Jamal Charles because we got a starting Striker out of the deal as well as an up and coming receiver and we believe the low priced backs we brought in have a lot to prove which should translate into good competition at the position which we hope equates to good production and fresher legs. David Fales was also brought in to learn behind Smith and hopefully some day take over. We think Crowder will have an immediate impact as a kick returner and will get an chance to start in the slot right away. Bringing in Raiola gives us that tenacity we like up front. Donnell adds some versatility to the TE position and mau open up some duel TE sets and give us an advantage in the red zone.

    FINAL ROSTER

    Re: Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    2015 Steelers Final Roster

    FA Signing
    Received via Trade
    Draft Pick

    Quarterback
    Ben Roethlisberger QB $18,395,000
    Bruce Gradkowski QB $1,833,334

    Breaking from tradition, the Steelers only keep 2 QB's on the 53 man roster. (If we had a practice squad, you would see Landry Jones there). Jones has been on the roster for 2 years and is yet to dress for a game. At this point, he is probably safe to stash on the PS, to be called up in case of injury.

    Running Back
    Le'Veon Bell RB $1,123,800
    Dri Archer RB $644,504
    Shonn Greene RB $510,000
    Josh Harris RB $510,000
    Will Johnson FB $510,000

    As usual, Bell will be the workhorse. Archer will be the change of pace/gadget player who can line up at RB or WR. Greene was a nice reliable FA pickup who can back up Bell and start the first 2-3 games while he is suspended. Johnson is an underrated FB/"H Back" who is a great blocker and pass catcher in the flat.

    Wide Receiver
    Antonio Brown WR $9,787,500
    Markus Wheaton WR $752,844
    Martavis Bryant WR $619,805
    Cecil ShortsWR$1,000,000
    Titus Davis WR $447,720

    Nothing to see here. The top 3 were already clicking at the end of last year and they stay the same. Free agent Shorts comes in as WR4, and the 7th round draft pick Davis becomes WR5.

    Tight End
    Heath Miller TE $5,666,666
    Owen Daniels TE $2,500,000
    Maxx Williams TE $1,514,745

    The tight end position has been upgraded significantly, and players have been added in case Miller begins to decline at 32. Miller remains TE1, while Daniels was a key offseason addition and comes in as TE2. Williams was a bit of a surprise pick in round 1.22 after the Steelers top targets at other positions went off the board, but the only top talent in the TE class comes in as TE3, with a chance to get on the field over Heath in passing situations. He also has a chance to jump to TE1 next year if he develops as expected.

    Offensive Line
    Maurkice Pouncey C $4,296,000
    Cody Wallace C $1,250,000
    David DeCastro OG $2,486,240
    Ramon Foster OG $2,150,000
    Chris Hubbard OG $510,000
    Marcus Gilbert OT $3,256,000
    Mike Adams OT $1,127,525
    Kelvin Beachum OT $671,474
    Jamil Douglas OT/OG $460,418

    Pouncey, DeCastro, Foster, Gilbert, and Beachum will start - the same 5 as last year. Beachum has vastly outplayed his 7th round draft stock as the starting LT, and will probably be offered a contract extension during training camp. Wallace will be the primary backup at all 3 interior positions, with Hubbard behind him. Adams will be the primary backup at OT. A tough decision had to be made for the last spot, as former Army Ranger Alejandro Villanueva has huge size, talent, and of course work ethic. But he is very raw, and it's believed that draftee Douglas can play both OG and OT, so he will practice both in the preseason, to be available for emergencies throughout the season. Villanueva would have been another practice squad player.

    Defensive Line
    Cameron Heyward 34DE $6,969,000
    Stephon Tuitt 34DE $1,047,601
    Brett Keisel 34DE $1,750,000
    Henry Anderson 34DE $541,301
    Steve McLendon 34DT $2,808,334
    Daniel McCullers 34DT $529,670

    The young talent, Heyward and Tuitt will start at DE, with Keisel in place as #3/rotational player/mentor for the young guys. Anderson comes in as #4, training up to be #3 in 2016 when Keisel retires. McLendon and McCullers remain #1 and #2 Nose Tackles.

    Linebackers
    Lawrence Timmons ILB $12,566,250
    Ryan Shazier ILB $2,160,728
    Vince Williams ILB $604,670
    Terence Garvin ILB $585,000
    James Harrison 34OLB $2,750,000
    Arthur Moats34OLB$510,000$0
    Jarvis Jones 34OLB $2,374,228 $5,144,161
    Nate Orchard 34OLB $689,300 Draft 2
    Shawn Lemon 34OLB $437,500 $7,500

    The ILB's are pretty self-explanatory, with Williams backing up Timmons as the "Buck" LB (generally the thumper) and Garvin backing up Shazier as the "Mack" (more likely to drop into coverage). OLB is more interesting, as Harrison and Moats will actually enter the year as starters over former 1st rounder Jones and new 2nd rounder Orchard. Moats did a solid job as a rotational guy and spot starter in his first year with the Steelers last year, and for that he earns a starting nod...for now. Jones hasn't impressed his first 2 years, but that is largely because he has dealt with multiple injuries. He will be rotating with Harrison and trying to become the starter there by midseason. Orchard will back up Moats and get some rotational snaps as well, with the chance to also jump into the starting role if he proves himself. Lemon won the last LB spot in a tight race with trade acquisition Dontay Moch (a decent backup that's really better suited for a 4-3) and last year's preseason/practice squad darling Howard Jones. Lemon set the CFL on fire last year as both a pass rusher and special teamer, and in the end, this production won out.

    Secondary
    Jason McCourty CB $8,600,000
    Cortez Allen CB $6,981,000
    William Gay CB $1,666,668
    Brice McCain CB $1,000,000
    Antwon Blake CB $750,000
    Alex Carter CB $572,278
    Mike Mitchell S $2,508,750
    Shamarko Thomas S $698,288
    Quintin Demps S $510,000
    Kurtis Drummond S $480,413
    Ross Ventrone S $585,000

    This was an area of need for the Steelers, and we have responded. We will be keeping a whopping 11 DB's this year, with plenty of new talent. Jason McCourty was our biggest trade acquisition and immediately becomes CB1. Cortez Allen will start the year as CB2, with Gay in the slot. But if Cortez struggles as he did last year, Gay will move up to CB2, with McCain and Blake battling for slot duties. Carter was a solid 3rd round draft pick who will look to move his way up the pecking order as the season progresses. At safety, Thomas and Mitchell will start, with new acquisitions Demps and Drummond backing them up. Thomas has been studying behind Polamalu for 2 years, so it's time now to apply everything he has learned. Ventrone won the last safety spot over Jordan Dangerfield because of his special teams prowess.

    Specialists
    Shaun Suisham K $3,665,000
    Sam Koch P $1,250,000
    Greg Warren LS $510,000

    Reliable vets Suisham and Warren return. The big upgrade here is at punter, where the Steelers have had below average play the past few years. Landing one of the league's top punters at a bargain price will help the field position game considerably.

    Grand total Cap Number, including just over $1M dead money = $128,124,554. Do I get to roll my unused space over into next year? ;-)

    2015 MINNESOTA VIKINGS (AKA 2018 Superbowl champions)

    Rookie
    Trade
    Free Agent Signing


    OFFENSE:
    Our offense will be based on "11" personnel, 3WR, 1TE, 1RB, with lots of formations available. Rhett Ellison or Chase Ford would relieve Tre McBride for a two-TE set, biased toward either run or pass. We'll spread the field, as NORV! likes to do, and make sure AP has space to work in, either as a runner or as a receiver. (yes, AP can catch, look up 2009) If defenses stack 9 or 10 in the box as they often are forced to do for AP, Teddy can burn them in ways Cassel and Ponder never could. We'll run a lot, but have a lot of flexibility, being well set up for a 5-wide set or a power set with an extra OL or TE.

    We don't have superstars at OL or WR, but they're solid and deep, and we have top-5 talent at RB, QB, and TE, which seemed to work pretty well for NE and SEA last year.


    QB:
    1. Teddy Bridgewater $1,556,705 ($4,250,115) - PFF's #15 QB overall last year, ended with one of the highest completion percentages ever for a rookie, and #3 QB in the NFL over the last nine weeks of the year. Aaron Rogers is his ceiling, Drew Brees is his floor.
    2. Shaun Hill $510,000 ($0) - Capable backup with a strong understanding of Norv Turner's offense.

    RB:
    1. Adrian Peterson $15,400,000 ($2,400,000) - The best running back in the NFL.
    2. Jerick McKinnon $648,750 ($386,250) - With just Jerick and Matt Asiata, the Vikings were the #10 running team in the league last year. He's a physical freak who is still learning the RB position.
    3. Fred Jackson $2,000,000 ($2,000,000) - PFF's #22 RB with a +3.9 rating in 2014

    FB:
    1. Zach Line $585,000 ($0) - Former running back who should be a versatile fullback and emergency backup RB.


    LT:
    1. Matt Kalil $6,290,644 ($6,290,644) - Terrible last year, but league average toward the end of the year as his knee injury healed. We think he'll get back to his 2012 Pro Bowl form once fully healthy.
    2. Donovan Smith $563,750 ($563,750) - Capable, if a bit inconsistent OT with good measurables, he's likely to be our primary swing tackle and insurance in case Kalil implodes again.

    LG:
    1. Andrew Norwell $510,000 ($0) - PFF's 15th graded G with a +8.5
    2. David Yankey $561,725 ($155,175) - Fell to the 5th round in the '14 draft, working to add strength

    C:
    1. John Sullivan $5,750,000 ($1,000,000) - PFF's #12 center with a +5.6. Better run blocker than pass blocker.
    2. AQ Shipley $510,000 ($0) - PFF's #14 center in 2014 with a +4.5. Started for the Colts last year. Could also back up at LG if Norwell or Yankey are injured or struggle.

    RG:
    1. Brandon Fusco $3,550,000 ($3,200,000) - Coming back from a torn pectoral muscle, Fusco is a capable run blocker, and part of the unit that blocked for AP's 2000+ yard season.
    2. Austin Wentworth $510,000 ($0) - Swing backup G/T, had a -1.4 rating from PFF last year in limited backup snaps.

    RT:
    1. Phil Loadholt $6,750,000 ($3,500,000) - 6'8" 343 lbs of absolute mauler. Also injured last year, also a big part of paving the way for AP's 2000+ year.


    TE:
    1. Kyle Rudolph $6,550,000 ($15,750,000) - Pro Bowler in 2012, dealt with multiple injuries in '13/'14
    2. Chase Ford $585,000 ($0) - Surprisingly capable backup to Rudolph, +4.6 grade from PFF, #15 TE
    3. Rhett Ellison $735,146 ($75,146) - FB/TE hybrid, great blocker, showed off acceptable hands in '14 as a periodic surprise receiver. -0.2 from PFF


    WR:
    1. DeVante Parker $2,103,182 ($2,103,182) - Teddy's go-to receiver in college. He has the speed, the route running, incredible ball-tracking and catch radius. Some have compared him to Alshon Jeffrey.
    2. Kenny Britt $4,000,000 ($4,000,000) - Capable possession receiver, PFF's #35 WR
    3. Tre McBride $594,375 ($594,375) - Flexible, smart receiver good at reading coverages and getting open. Also a good kick/punt returner option.
    4. Jarius Wright $765,027 ($105,027) - Flanker/slot guy with good hands who owns Richard Sherman.
    5. Dwayne Harris $510,000 ($0) - Played well with limited snaps, 33rd ranked WR in the passing game
    6. Adam Thielen $510,000 ($0) - Great blocking WR and well rounded, standout ST guy, rated #40 WR overall by PFF w/ +1.7 (mostly for his blocking)


    DEFENSE:

    Zimmer runs a 4-3 over with the "will" side LB ready to blitz, press the TE, drop back into coverage, or sniff out screens, as Barr showed he was capable of doing repeatedly last year. Everyone knows a Zimmer Defense is a force to be reckoned with, and we've given him both superstar talent and depth at all three levels.

    Our defensive line will set the tone. Talented and deep, this group will stifle the running game and give QBs virtually no time to find open receivers. Our LBs need only be able to clean up behind them, and our corners will be able to focus on the 5-yd press zone. Our FS will roam deep and Smith can cover TEs/RBs, blitz, or drop to cover the middle.

    If their O line can handle a pass rush from Charles Johnson, Sharrif Floyd, Michael Johnson, and Everson Griffen, (they can't) we can still send Anthony Barr or Harrison Smith. They'll never know who's coming.


    RE:
    1. Charles Johnson $20,020,000 ($14,040,000) - PFF's #4 pass rusher, and #11 DE overall
    2. Michael Johnson $4,500,000 ($4,500,000) - Terrible with TB while injured, reunited with Zimmer

    LE:
    1. Everson Griffen $8,200,000 ($11,700,000) - PFF's #8 DE, equally capable against the pass and run.
    2. Scott Crichton $705,507 ($492,243) - 3rd round pick in 2014, was still learning last year

    NT:
    1. Linval Joseph $4,600,000 ($6,000,000) - Capable run plugger, #22 against the run in '14
    2. Kenrick Ellis $510,000 ($0) - Capable rotational guy against the run - #27 against the run in limited duty

    3-Tech:
    1. Sharrif Floyd $2,202,600 ($3,266,000) - PFF's #5 overall DT in 2014, he's the next Geno Atkins.
    2. Marcus Hardison $483,613 ($0) - Explosive athlete with 10 sacks in his senior year
    3. Jonathan Babineaux $510,000 ($0) - Capable pass rushing rotational guy still, PFF's #19 pass rusher


    SLB:
    1. Anthony Barr $2,896,272 ($10,426,578) - PFF's #8 OLB, looks like Vonn Miller in the making, #3 pass rushing 4-3 OLB
    2. Akeem Dent $510,000 ($0) - #10 pass rushing ILB in 2014, solid backup for Barr

    MLB:
    1. Eric Kendricks $1,449,364 ($1,449,364) - Standout UCLA MLB, good against both the run and the pass, reunited with Anthony Barr.
    2. Rey Maualuga $510,000 ($0) - League average ILB all around, knows Zimmer's scheme
    3. Audie Cole $660,000 ($0) - PFF's #9 overall OLB in limited backup duty in '14, probably better as ILB, not the fastest guy.

    WLB:
    1. Gerald Hodges $690,027 ($210,054) - PFF's #10 overall OLB in '14, good in coverage and against the run, not great as a pass rusher. (we have plenty of those!)
    2. Phillip Wheeler $510,000 ($0) - PFF's #21 OLB in '14, much more of a run stopper


    Kendricks is the defensive field marshall the Vikings have needed for a long time, and won't leave the field. If we want to emphasize the pass rush we can leave Barr out there in the Nickel, and keep Smith in coverage. If the four-man rush is working well, (and dear god how could it not?) we can pull Barr for Hodges, and have two versatile coverage LBs, plus smith covering TEs or blitzing.


    Outside Corner:
    1. Xavier Rhodes $2,129,046 ($3,143,410) - Follows #1 WR - PFF's #14 CB in coverage, near-shutdown ability, great in press-man
    2. Kareem Jackson $6,500,000 ($6,500,000) - Shifts to slot in Nickel - PFF's #7 CB in coverage, can also play the slot
    3. Josh Norman $709,750 ($49,750) - #2 outside in Nickel - PFF's #21 CB in coverage, better as the year progressed

    Inside Corner:
    1. Captain Munnerlyn $3,833,333 ($666,667) - Dime - PFF's #48 CB in coverage as he learned Zimmer's scheme, looking for a bounce back year
    2. Jabari Price $525,455 ($46,365) - Late round pick in '14 who has experience in the slot

    Free Safety:
    1. Jeromy Miles $510,000 ($0) - PFF's #14 S in coverage, runs a 4.46 40, he's the rangy deep safety who allows Harrison Smith to be the jack of all trades that he is and allows aggressive press-man coverage from our CBs. He's likely replaced by Sendejo on running downs.
    2. Cedric Thompson $450,150 ($0) - Fast, productive leader of a very capable Gophers D, could develop into our starting deep safety of the future.
    3. Andrew Sendejo $1,066,668 ($66,668) - capable backup at both safety spots, graded +2.7

    Strong Safety:
    1. Harrison Smith $2,271,355 ($907,918) - all-around swiss army knife Safety, ranked #2 overall by PFF. He can cover in zone or man, he can punish RBs, and he can blitz.
    3. Antone Exum $538,947 ($86,841) - late round rookie working to transition from CB

    SPECIAL TEAMS:
    LS Cullen Loeffler $510,000 ($0) - He snaps.
    K Blair Walsh $689,483 ($29,483) - PFF's #11 kicker, set a franchise record for 50+ yd FGs
    P Ryan Quigley $600,000 ($600,000) - PFF's #10 punter

    KR/PR:
    1. Dwayne Harris - PFF's #14 return man, can return both punts and kickoffs
    2. Tre McBride - 23.1 avg KR yards, 11.1 avg punt return yards in college


    Cap Charge: $136,641,320 ($116,908,914)


    DRAFT PICKS
    1.11 - WR DeVante Parker, Louisville
    1.25 - ILB Eric Kendricks, UCLA
    3.76 - WR Tre McBride, William & Mary
    3.96 - OT Donovan Smith, Penn State

    Re: Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    CHICAGO BEARS
    The Bears plan this offseason was to jettison some bad contracts and completely dismantle and rebuild their defence to bring back the monsters of the midway and once again instill fear in offensive coordinators across the league. In doing so we freed up enough money to also drastically improve our offence. Most of our D have played in 3-4s and 4-3s and allow us to switch in and out without changing personnel to create different looks. Houston can drop to OLB, Casey kick in to DT and Hughes jump up and plant while Bostic slides out. Very versatile group when you have a secondary as solid as Fuller-Trufant-Byrd-Pollard.

    ROSTER
    Starter bold Free Agent blue Via Trade orange Rookie red

    QB
    1. Sam Bradford QB 8,500,000
    2.
    Brock Osweiler 1,118,943
    3. Ryan Mallett 2,000,000
    It was time to move on at QB. The job is Bradfords to lose but it would not surprise us in the least to see Osweiler or Mallett step up and wow us in OTAs and preseason. We are carrying three talented QBs as insurance against past injury issues.

    RB
    1. Matt Forte RB 9,200,000
    2. DeAngelo Williams 775,000

    3. Jacquizz Rodgers 510,000
    4. Tyler Clutts FB 510,000
    Glad to have Clutts back and some quality depth behind stalwart Forte.

    WR
    1.
    Vincent Jackson WR1 12,209,777
    2. Alshon Jeffery WR2 1,447,036
    3. Andre Johnson 4,500,000
    4. Andre Holmes 1,405,215

    5. Stephen Hill 675,000
    6. Jamarcus Nelson PR/KR 450,933
    Giant receivers, speed to blow the top off, very talented group. Johnson came too cheap to not sign him. If you think he's lost a step watch him in the slot with Jeffery and VJax on the outside. Nelson should get us a couple scores as our returner.

    TE
    1. Martellus Bennett TE 6,125,000
    2. Zach Miller of Neb/Omaha 510,000
    3. Matt Spaeth 510,000
    Bennett rarely comes off field, Miller hopefully can stay healthy and show the league his ability, and like Clutts very happy to have uber tough Spaeth back.

    OL
    1. Kyle Long LT 2,263,896

    2. Logan Mankins LG 7,000,000
    3. Rodney Hudson C 7,250,000
    4. Willie Colon RG 510,000
    5. Orlando Franklin RT 7,850,000

    6. Demar Dotson T 2,500,000
    7. Jordan Mills G/T 626,200
    8. Chaz Green OL 435,000
    9. Gabe Ikard C 510,000

    Long is ready to dominate at LT. Very strong line to protect our QB and set Forte loose. Quality depth and versatile rookie Chaz Green learning and waiting in the wings. We spent some money here and will be rewarded.

    ST
    1. Robbie Gould K 3,600,000
    2. Pat O'Donnell P 536,327
    3. John Denney LS 510,000
    We welcome talented LS Denney (in the shoes of Pat Mannelly) who instantly solidifies our ST who struggled recently despite our fantastic K Gould and impressive young P O'Donnell.

    DE
    1. LaMarr Houston LE 6,990,000
    2. Jurrell Casey RE 6,720,000
    3. Jarvis Jenkins 650,000
    4. Corey Peters 510,000
    5. Leterrius Walton 536,367
    6. David Irving 435,000
    Ecstatic to have brought Casey in to work opposite Houston. Great depth with Jenkins and Peters and very exciting rookies Walton, who was a top draft target, and David Irving who needs to prove himself as a person to stay with our team, but has the skill set of an elite pass rusher. We carried eight DL to let these two have the time they'll need to develop.

    NT
    1.
    Danny Shelton NT 2,675,273
    2. Al Woods 560,000
    Landing Danny was our no. 1 goal going in to the offseason and most of our trades and signings were based on him being brought here to anchor our D for the next 10-12 years. He will rarely leave the field despite what you hear from some of the pundits. He eats up blockers and makes every other player on the field better.

    LB
    1. Tamba Hali OLB 5,500,000
    2. Jerry Hughes OLB 9,000,000

    3. Sean Weatherspoon ILB 3,750,000
    4. Jon Bostic ILB 1,074,763
    5. David Harris ILB 3,200,000
    6. Jacquies Smith OLB 510,000
    7.
    Max Valles OLB 435,000
    8. Christian Jones LB 512,333
    Jerry Hughes was our main priority in FA as a pass rusher while Hali fell into our laps at a fantastic price. Weatherspoon and Harris shore up our middle along with holdovers Bostic and Jones. Valles is exciting but will need time to develop. Jacquies Smith will give us solid depth in chasing down QBs after having an amazing showing last year with the Bucs.

    CB
    1. Kyle Fuller RCB 2,201,591
    2.
    Desmond Trufant LCB 2,227,117
    3. Imoan Claiborne 435,000
    4.
    Tarell Brown 510,000
    5. Delvin Breaux 950,000

    We signed Breaux as our number 2 after he had a great couple years in the CFL. Then Brown a sure starter came to us on the league min. We then managed to trade for Trufant and now have two impressive young corners and great depth. Rookie Claiborne will take the slot and will amaze he went undrafted.

    S
    1.
    Jairus Byrd FS 5,500,000
    2.
    Bernard Pollard SS 3,625,000
    3. Brock Vereen 607,875

    4. Clayton Geathers 482,790
    5. Nate Allen 510,000
    Very excited to bring in Byrd to hold the back 30 of the field while Pollard comes in and destroys some runners. Allen is very affordable depth and will backup the slot if needed. We traded up to ensure we landed Geathers who will take over for Pollard in the years to come. He has very fast feet and will be able to grow into his abilities. Vereen has shown potential and will provide some great depth.

    Re: Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers



    -QB-
    1. Jameis Winston $4,064,636
    2. Michael Vick $600,000 (600,000)
    3. Tyrod Taylor $750,000 (750,000)

    After 6 wins in the last 2 seasons, Tampa went all in this offseason. Finding a "Franchise" QB was obviously a priority. And in a league that has only few true Franchise QB's, we opted to look towards the draft with the number 1 overall pick. I feel Mr Winston gives us the best chance to win now. He is the most pro ready QB the draft had to offer. His football IQ and winning track record was very appealing to Tampa. Obviously we have concerns with his off field issues. Which is what brings us to his back up, Michael Vick. A seasoned Vet who is a very capable backup, who has also had off field issues of his own. Who better than Vick can mentor Winston on things to do and not do. And if there is a complete break down, Tyrod Taylor is our 3rd QB. If he's good enough to back up Flacco on the way to championship, then he will be just fine as a 3rd option in Tampa.

    -RB-
    1. Arian Foster $8,906,250 (5,000,000)
    2. Joique Bell $3,500,000 (2,000,000)
    3. Charles Sims $726,023 (513,069)
    4. Darren McFadden $510,000 (0)

    Tampa's Rush attack has been no where to be found since 2012. So this prompted Tampa to move on from one hit wonder Doug Martin. We looked to replace him with a top back, and that's just what we did. Arian Foster is just the guy to bring a dangerous rush attack back to Tampa. Just an all round dual threat stud running and catching the ball. But you can't have lightning without thunder. Which brings me to our number 2 option Joique Bell. A bruising back that also has some finesse. Foster will be the bell cow, but Bell will get some touches, and will be our goal line back. In the event of wear and tear we feel last years 3rd round pick Charles Sims is very capable of coming in on 3rd down situations. With McFadden being solid depth, We are very pleased with this group of backs.

    -FB-
    1. James Wilder Jr $510,000 (0)

    We won't be using a FB much, but when we do it will be the Big bruising former RB and Son of Tampa great, Wilder.

    -WR-
    1. Brandon Marshall $9,575,000 (5,625,000)
    2. Mike Evans $3,325,341 (11,971,229)
    3. Percy Harvin $10,500,000 (0) (Slot)
    4. Harry Douglas $1,000,000 (1,000,000)
    5. Ryan Broyles $1,170,432 (278,818)
    6. Robert Herron $538,000 (84,000)

    I feel we have the best group of WR's in the game. With Vincent Jackson giving us the impression he is on his last leg, we made the move to swap him out with another huge WR in Brandon Marshall. At the 2 spot we have Mike Evans. And absolute stud who shattered Tampa records as a rookie. A huge concern for Tampa in the last several years has been our 3rd WR aka the slot. So we went after who we think if healthy is one of the most dangerous guys in the business. With how many freak injury's occur in this league we felt the need to go after quality depth. We were thrilled to land a proven back up for a division rival for so cheap in Harry Douglas. This guy has stepped up and showed he can be a quality starter when a guy goes down. Numbers don't lie.

    -TE-
    1. Vernon Davis $6,967,920 (2,067,920)
    2. Jacob Tamme $510,000 (0)
    3. Trey Burton $510,000 (0)

    After not getting much production out of this position in many years, we chose to go after a speedy threat in Vernon Davis. Jacob Tamme is another solid veteran who we couldn't pass on for the price. And last but no least, Trey Burton. This is a guy who can play anywhere (RB,FB,WR,TE, and even a former QB) who will be a huge asset on special teams as well.

    -LT-
    1. Jermon Bushrod $8,050,000 (6,600,000)
    2. Jamon Meredith $510,000 (0)

    -LG-
    1. Matt Slauson $3,267,500 (1,252,500)

    2. Kevin Pamphile $559,625 (0)

    No need to church it up, Tampa's oline sucked last year. This was one of our biggest offseason missions. We completely rid our selves of last years train wreck and replaced them with very capable veterans. Half of our line came from Chicago where Forte has run for many 1,000 yard seasons (including last year). We hope they can serve the same for Foster and Rookie signal caller Winston. Might not be the best line in the league, but a huge upgrade from last years group.

    -LDE-
    1. Jadeveon Clowney $5,062,045 (18,223,362)
    2. William Gholston $685,136 (200,272)

    -RDE-
    1. Jared Allen $12,500,000 (12,500,000)
    2. Wallace Gilberry $1,200,000 (1,200,000)

    Tampa's pass rush was at the bottom of the ranks last year in sacks. So to fix that issue, we brought in last years number 1 overall pick in Clowney and sack master Jared Allen. We also feel we have good back ups in the event of an injury. We can assure you that with these two pass rush specialists (Clowney and Allen) getting to the QB will no longer be an issue in Tampa.

    -DT-
    1. Gerald McCoy $14,595,000 (4,595,000)
    2. Henry Melton $6,000,000 (6,000,000)
    3. Akeem Spence $706,106 (242,212)
    4. Amobi Okoye $510,000 (0)

    We feel McCoy is the best 3 technique in the league. And to get even more production out of him, we added Henry Melton to play beside him. With these two playing inside and Clowney and Allen coming off the edge, i wouldn't want to be an opposing QB. This Dline will be a force to recon with!!

    -WLB-
    1. Lavonte David $1,104,642 (241,224)
    2. Geno Hayes $510,000 (0)

    -MLB-
    1. Mason Foster $6,500,000 (6,500,000)
    2. Dane Fletcher $510,000 (0)

    -SLB-
    1. Zach Brown $1,227,640 (311,509)
    2. Danny Lansanah $510,000 (0)

    Lavonte Davis is one of the best WLB in the league if not the best. We originally traded for Patrick Willis to play the middle until his out of no where retirement. At that point we opted to bring back the guy who has held that spot down for us, for the last several years, Mason Foster. With Tampa playing in nickle more than 60% of the time, SLB wasn't the biggest hole we needed to fill but still opted to go after a quality starter in Zach Brown to rounder out our LB crew. We are also thrilled with the Depth we have. Bringing back guys who are all familiar with our system In Hayes and Fletcher as well as having a guy who stepped up and had a breakout year last season, Lansanah.

    -CB-
    1. Janoris Jenkins $1,587,829 (517,331)
    2. Jonathan Banks $1,288,997 (908,662)
    3. Tim Jennings $5,250,000 (6,650,000) (Nickle)
    4. Mike Jenkins $510,000 (0)
    5. Cody Riggs $435,000 (0)

    Last years big free agent signing Verner didn't perform to the standards we expected. So we opted to replace him with a better cheaper option in Janoris Jenkins. Banks improved alot last season and proved he earned a starting spot on this defense. Tim Jennings is a pricey guy for the nickle, but Ronde Barber proved it is a key position in this Tampa two defense. And being a former Lovie guy in Chicago , he has proved he is more than capable to perform at a high level in this defense.

    -SS-
    1. Mark Barron $2,362,704 (2,362,704)
    2. Major Wright $510,000 (0)
    3. Bradley McDougald $510,000 (0)

    -FS-
    1. Kenny Vaccaro $2,570,374 (5,569,144)
    2. Chris Conte $1,250,000 (1,250,000)

    After the previous GM felt the need to get rid of Barron instead of Goldson, it was a priority to bring him back (but at a cheaper price than we gave him up for) Barron is a young former first rounder with a ton of potential. Resigning Wright to back him up was a must as well. Familiar with this defense as a former Lovie guy in Chicago as well. McDougald was a no brainer to keep on the roster. He stepped huge after trading Barron away last year as the new starter and was one of the only bright spots on this defense. Getting rid of Dashon Goldson was something that needed to be done. Over priced and under preformed. We chose to replace him with former first rounder and division rival, Kenny Vaccaro. We went after Vaccaro because of his ability to play all over the field. Capable of playing strong safety or free, as well as playing some slot in college. Conte is a guy we were happy to get. Having him gives us the ability to move Vaccaro in the slot on Dime situations and put him up top.

    -ST-
    K. Steven Hauschka $650,000 (650,000)
    P. Michael Koenen $510,000 (0)
    KR/PR. Percy Harvin

    This is a silent but deadly group for us. Bringing back a guy like Koenen at a reduced rate was huge, as well as signing a quality kicker like Hauschka. The most exciting member of this group is, return specialist Percy Harvin. This guy proved how dangerous he is in the return game in the super bowl two years ago. A dangerous return man is something Tampa has never had. So it was a must to go after our guy.


    Total- $144,808,526
    Cap- $145,000,000

    This team was 2-14 last year, and 4-12 the season before that. We didn't have a ton of money to work with, or the best roster on the planet. But we feel this is much improved team across the board who is ready to make a playoff run this season. On offense we have upgraded every position, as well as quality depth. If Winston can stay out of trouble and be the player he was in college, and surrounding him with weapons like Foster, Marshall, Evans, Harvin and Vernon Davis this offense will be very hard to stop. On the defensive side of the ball pass rush was a huge factor last season. Now that is no longer an issue. Having Clowney, McCoy, Melton and Jared Allen up front putting pressure on the QB will make the rest of the defenses job a whole lot easier. Lavonte anchoring the LB crew with Foster and Brown gives us a good front 7 all around. And on the back end with the edition of Janoris Jenkins and Kenny Vaccao we feel like this will be a very solid and much improved Defense!

    (2) Corey Robinson $563,750 ($563,750)

    I feel pretty good about all our starters' potential except at RT. Our team will be based on a power running game behind our strong interior line with a staple of talented runners (Newton, Stewart, Patterson and Karlos Williams with some development). Nick O'Leary adds a good run-blocking TE to our offense to run out of two TE sets as well as pass (much like the success we had with Olsen and Shockey). Having Patterson on the team as our jack-of-all-trades allows us a lot of flexibility to go deep with him as a boundary WR, play option games and screens with him in the slot or backfield, and have a very diverse offense. Robert Woods gives Newton a young technician at WR. This offense should be able to compete with anyone and has the players to shift from I-formation, 2-TE, shotgun, multiple wide receivers and run or pass out of any of these formations. The offensive line is one injury away from catastrophe, but these starters (except RT) are all talented and can play well as long as they can avoid getting hurt.

    SS:

    (2) Robert Lester $585,000 $0

    I love this defense. Shaq Thompson, Brandon Graham, and TJ McDonald are three young guys I think will be / are stars. Thompson and Alexander give us credible depth at LB from the draft. Thompson will start at LB, but like Patterson on offense he'll be used as a missile all over the field wherever he's needed. McDonald completes what is a young secondary but has the talent to become one of the league's best. Graham and Cole give us two true speed rushers that we've lacked since Julius Peppers. And I'm happy with the depth everywhere on this defense. This defense got a major boost in speed this offseason. The secondary is a bit unproven, and Kony Ealy is still developing, but I think all these guys are talented and will step up to form one of the league's best defenses. We’ll continue to roll with the Cover-3 Zones the team has used in the past couple years, although our upgrades in the secondary allow us to play some more man-based coverage schemes.

    SPECIAL TEAMS:
    Graham Gano K $3,100,000 ($2,250,000)
    Jeffrey Jansen LS $995,000 ($125,000)
    Brad Nortman P $679,670 ($19,670)
    KR/PR Cordarelle Patterson $1,969,376 ($2,877,294)
    Graham Gano is fantastic on kickoffs, Nortman is an average punter, hopefully some of the depth on defense will bring about better coverage on punts. Cordarelle Patterson, even if he fails on offense (which we don't think he will), will be a dynamite returner on special teams that we've been lacking since Steve Smith in his younger days.

    CAROLINA SALARY CAP TOTAL
    = $127,768,478
    (Dead money = $9,022,834 included in above total)

    Flexibility on both sides of the ball is key. As the league moves to more up-tempo, no-huddle schemes, a focus must be placed on players who can play multiple positions and have multiple roles on offense or defense. Because of their versatility, Shaq Thompson and Cordarelle Patterson were hugely important to our offseason (Thompson can fill in at safety if either of our young guys fail, and has the ability to fill in for Thomas Davis at LB if he gets hurt again). Patterson allows us to run even more options and gimmicks out of our base offense as well as giving us a credible speed/deep-threat in the passing game. Graham was probably our best free agent signing. The offensive line is still a scary group and clearly the team's weakness. Really wish I could take back that Mike Tolber trade. I initially thought I'd need cap space in a big way, but I still have almost $20 million left and could've hung on to some players or taken on more salary for better deals (also should've targeted a better right tackle in free agency like Barksdale or Bulaga).

    RG - 1. Oday Aboushi | 2. Ben Heenan
    RT - 1. Breno Giacomini | 2. Anthony Collins

    - Single back, two tight end base offense. We put a premium on finding top tier talent around last chance QB Geno Smith, and we feel his fit in Chan Gailey's offense trumped that of any other quarterback on the market. Moving Jimmy Graham to the slot in 3 WR packages should maximize matchups nicely on opposing safeties and nickle corners. Dunbar will be the change of pace back to give Marshawn a small rest in obvious passing situations.

    SS 1. Dewan Landry | 2. Marcus Gilcrist
    FS 1. Calvin Pryor | 2. Jaiqwan Jarrett

    - With Ray Horton's multiple defensive fronts, we targetted a myriad of players that played in both 3-4 and 4-3 fronts. Pass rushers Derrick Morgan and Junior Galette can slide down to the line, to give different looks to Richardson and Wilkerson. Buster Skrine isn't an ideal starter on the outside, but taking pressure off of Milliner as he returns from injury is key.

    Special Teams

    LS Tanner Purdum
    PR 1. Akeem Hunt | 2. Brandon Tate | 3. Lance Dunbar
    KR 1. Akeem Hunt | 2. Brandon Tate | 3. Lance Dubnar

    - Electric return man Akeem Hunt was brought in as an UDFA to take the job from veteran gunner Brandon Tate at the last minute and attempt to shore up a less than stellar unit last year. Nick Folk was relieved of duties due to cap reasons, and former Jet second round Mike Nugent was brought back to replace him.

    Re: Post Final Rosters/Depth Charts Here

    The Tennessee Titans

    Intro: The real Tennessee Titans are awful. There's really not much going for that team, so there was no need to being a boring ninny and sit on a roster of crap. Talent was a necessity, and it was needed everywhere. We also had money, tons of money, by the start of free agency and we targeted a handful of individuals once we had acquired a good QB. Fortunately, we landed all of our top targets. After it was all said and done, 17 trades and a billion FA moves, I'm left with only 6 original guys from the original team I took over (Lewan, Warmack, Levitre, Williamson, Woodyard, and Huff). I'll lay out my roster and coaching staff and then my depth chart accompanied with narration (by Morgan Freeman, of course).

    Commentary on Offense: I've never had a legit QB in GML. In fact, my best might have been Thad Lewis or Chase Daniel. So I was not leaving this GML without one. Acquiring Nick Foles was a game changer for the direction of this team. I truly had no interest in Mariota or Winston, and if I had never moved #2, I would have gone with Leonard Williams. With him in place, I quickly surrounded him with talent to throw to. If there's anything Jason Michael can do, it's getting major production from a tight end. So I gave him 3 downfield targets at that position. We'll be able to effectively deploy two TE formations at the mercy of opposing defenses. We synced Foles up with his former #1 in Philly in Jeremy Maclin. Then we added the dynamic duo from Morgantown in Stedman and Tavon. Dwayne Bowe will have a chance to actually be a wide receiver again with a real passing attack. The wildcard is the lanky and fast Marquess Wilson. We made it a priority to have running backs capable of catching the ball and Bush and Vereen are two of the best. It'll be a committee as neither are every down backs. They'll be backed by battering rams in Robinson, Matt Jones, and Tolbert. Tolbert is also an effective pass catcher. We'll be spreading things out quite a bit. The OLine stayed mostly the same, except we upgraded at C (Lewis) and T (Armstead) and also upgraded our depth along the line with Barclay and Schwartz. This offense is designed to take advantage of Foles' arm. We're aware of the potential injury prone history with Foles and secured a quality backup in Mike Glennon.

    Commentary on Defense: Yeah we weren't interested much in continuing a failed 3-4 system. Since Jim Schwartz was booted after turning the Bills into a remarkable defense, hell yeah we were jumping on that opportunity. And that's good because our glaring weakness is the unknown on our front line and the inexperience despite the potential of the secondary. Fortunately we were able to land Preston Smith in the draft and he will be tasked to start on one side. Opposite will be Quinton Coples, as we end the tragedy of him trying to be a 3-4 LB. Sims has been a fairly productive backup to the vaunted St. Louis front line and will likely have a larger role than normal. Crawford and Clarke will also have plenty of opportunity as we try to figure out a decent mix. Ferguson and Williams will be the unquestioned starting DTs and both have shown potential in their young careers, with Ferguson only being a second year man and Williams being a former 1st rounder. The strength of our defense and the key to our rushing attack will be the combined powers of Justin Houston and Connor Barwin. They combined for 36.5 sacks in 2014. Providing depth will be college pass rush artist rookie Hau'oli Kikaha, who had over 30 sacks in his final two years. Manning the middle will be second year man Avery Williamson, who enjoyed an underrated rookie year. Malcolm X. Smith, former super bowl MVP, will provide relief all across the board. This unit will be key to the success on defense. The secondary is young and unproven, led by three second year guys, a rookie, and a career reserve at corner. Marcus Peters was our first round pick and despite off the field troubles in his past, we are willing to take the chance given that he grades as the best cover corner in the draft. Starting opposite of him will be Stanley Jean-Baptiste. Pierre Desir and Marcus Burley are next in line and figure to see plenty of action. Tyler..NA NA NA NA NA.. Patmon! was brought in late to provide depth in the secondary and to be the nickel corner. Safety will be a mix bag for now, with veteran Kendrick Lewis and rookie Anthony Harris getting the first cracks. Bacarri Rambo, Marqueston Huff, and Patmon will provide immediate depth. We are gambling with 3 rookies starting on defense but believe in their talent.


    SPECIAL TEAMS

    Place Kicking/Kick Off
    1. Justin Tucker

    Punting
    1. Brad Wing

    Long Snapping
    1. Don Barclay
    2. Jordan Zumwalt

    Kick Return:
    1. Stedman Bailey
    2. Ka'Deem Carey
    3. Reggie Bush

    Punt Return:
    1. Tavon Austin
    2. Reggie Bush
    3. Stedman Bailey


    Commentary on Special Teams: We started out with no kickers and an overpaid return man. Not exactly an encouraging beginning. Wing was about the only thing worthwhile on the market. Perhaps we'll run a Madden offense and go for it on 4th down every time. No, Wing will manage and wing it for now. The big get was one of the top legs in the NFL in Justin Tucker. Very consistent, clutch, and primed with a big leg, he'll be a weapon for us. Long snapping, meh, we'll run with one of the backup linemen or someone like Zumwalt. Returning the ball, we'll take Bush back to his roots and utilize the Morgantown duo. Carey may get looks too since he'll begin the year buried on the depth chart at RB.



    Outro: I believe the offense has been vastly upgraded and will present as a power given the type of spread system we'll run. Our tight ends will be nearly impossible to defense in conjunction with everything else. The offensive line is also a lot better, given the upgrades + development of Lewan. The special teams will also be a lot better with Tucker and Austin involved. The question marks will be on defense with several rookies starting and likely having a large role to play. Many players will be counted on to be more than just a part time role player. The linebacking corp will be dynamic and ultimately the difference maker. The defense being good rests solely on whatever we get out of the DLine and secondary. Marcus Peters has a chance to be really special if he keeps his head straight. We're confident we will be highly competitive and have a chance given the state of the division.
