Mark Tyler’s Washington Commanders 53-Man Roster Projection

The Washington Commanders final preseason game is on Sunday night against the New England Patriots. Cut-down day is two days later.

This has been a fun training camp to monitor as there has been plenty of competition and new faces for this staff to evaluate. The areas I have been watching most this preseason have been wide receiver, offensive line, cornerback and safety.

As the offseason comes to an end, and the start of the regular season approaches, there still remains a few spots that are up for grabs. I have to imagine that Adam Peters and Dan Quinn have a pretty good idea of what the beef of this 53-man roster is going to look like, but questions still remain – who will claim WR6 (if they do indeed opt to keep six), whether they keep nine or ten offensive linemen, if three tight ends will be adequate, who will get the final two cornerback spots and will they opt for five or six safeties.

Below is my 53-man roster prediction. I do believe we’ll see more movement after teams cut down their rosters, so I expect this to remain pretty fluid until the end of next week.
