With less than a week to go before the first roster cuts and two weeks left until the final 53 Man roster is released, I decided it could be fun to argue (should be plenty of dissension about who will make the team and who will find themselves searching for another job) the potential opening day roster. The reason I call this an "early" look is because two weeks leaves a myriad of factors that could effect this (injuries, trades, etc). Players with a (*) next to their name denotes a lock.

Hit the Jump to see the rest of the roster. Leave your comments and let's get a debate going. I have actually changed my mind (pending injury) about Stovall and Clayton, which is only one of many areas in which you can take issue with.
