Might catch heat from this but listening to Scone's last podcast he seems to think that 30 is the number. Those two players could be OL (both being Ole Miss linemen) and maybe possibly Longstreet.

I think 1 or 2 more WRs wouldn’t hurt

Great response.

Why? What is your reasoning. From the stickied thread there are 80ish players on rosters. The maximum number is 105 but from what I have seen some don't reach that number.

Just talked to Lane. 4 More WRs, 2 more QBs, and another Safety.

In all seriousness - probably another 2 or 3 OL, 1 more TE, 1 QB if we can get Longstreet or maybe a true back-up player, and maybe take Delane's brother at Safety and a LB.

Isn’t the roster scholarship limit now 105?

Wouldn’t surprise me if we took a few more flyers.

I think 30 is the minimum. I believe we are at 28 right now?

The fact we haven’t taken 1 LB and no LB has left means Baker must feel comfortable with what he has. That’s a good sign for developmental reasons. I’d like to see more development at Safety since Spears is the only non portal guy we have with meaningful snaps.

30-40 more

we have about 80 now and will probably have 110-130 total then cut down to 105 over the summer.

Also, there will be more players entering the portal. How many we add might slightly be effected by who enters. Have to Friday to enter.
