Edit, I forgot Rodgers.  I'll add him to DBs and remove Scott (from RBs)  who we'll instead have begin on the PS.

I’m guessing Sydney Brown will start the year on IR/PUP. I think we’ll have a veteran safety being signed with only 3 on the roster including SB. Unless they see Maddox/Dejean/Mek Garner as hybrids, there’s a handful of vets with a lot of experience that could contribute to a young DB room. Simmons, Tracy Walker, Hyde, Eddie Jackson, Maye come to mind. 

I predict that Jalen Hurts will be the starting QB 🙂 and the depth players roster will not be identical at the end of training camp, to where it is right now.

If I include Jason Kelce in my final 53, does he have to come back?

Yes

I think Oren Burks makes it at LB. He actually started a few games for SF last year.  He's more of a ST guy but he's a more proven NFL player than every LB on the roster outside of Devin White

QB

Hurts, Pickett, McKee

WR

Brown, Smith, Campbell, Parker, (A Smith and Covey compete for Return man / WR4/5)

RB

Saquon, Gainwell, Shipley,  (Davis-Price and Boston Scott compete to be stashed on PS as insurance)

OL

Lane, Mailata, Dickerson, Jurgens, Steen as starters, Hennessy, Keegan, Becton, F Johnson

TE

Goedert, Uzomah, Calcaterra, Okwuegbenam

DL

Carter, Davis, Williams, Tuipolotu, Ojomo, Graham, Sweat, Huff, Smith, Hunt

ILB

Dean, White, Trotter, Van Sumeren

CB

Slay, Mitchell, Ringo, Bradberry, Maddox, McPhearson, Rodgers, Ricks

Safety

CJGJ, Blankenship, Brown, DeJean

Then he's on it. 

I think there are 37 players that are roster locks. Neither Bradberry who I think will be cut  nor Sydney Brown, who will likely start the year on PUP, are included in that number. That means there are 17 roster spots up for grabs. Easier to first figure the positions they'll definitely keep and leave out the camp bodies:

38 TE2 - CJ Uzomah/Grant Caltacerra/Albert O 
39.TE3 
40. WR3  - Parris Campbell/Britain Covey/Devonta Parker/Ainias Smith/Johnny Wilson
41. WR4
42. WR5
43. OL9 - Trevor Keegan/Grant McMahon/Fred Johnson/LeRaven Clark/Darren Kinnard
44. DT4 (DL10) - Marlon Tuipulato/Moro Ojomo
45. LB3 -  Oren Burks/Ben Van Sumeren/Jerimiah Trotter, Jr./Brandon Smith
46. LB4
47. CB5* - Zech McPherson/Josh Jobe/Isaiah Rogers, Jr./Eli Ricks

Roster spots #48-53 go to 6 "electives" meaning they go heavier at whichever  of the above positions and/or keep one of the following
RB4 - Ty Davis-Price
S4** - Tristen McCollum/Mekhi Garner


*If Bradberry is not cut, this becomes CB6, and there would be not for certain be 6 CBs
** For positional purposes I'm counting Cooper DeJean as S, not a CB and assuming that Sydney Brown starts the year on PUP

I'd imagine that Zach Baun makes this team.  I saw that a few of you excluded him.

I hope Mr.T doesn't make the team.  He has either been awful or injured his three years in the league.  Whenever he is in the game I expect the opposing team to run up the middle for 8-9 yards.

You need to make 1 more cut

If he turns out to be a stud on ST, he'll have a shot. Right now, I feel like only a key injury to a defensive player would open up a spot for him to make the final 53.

The signed Baun for a fully guaranteed $3.5M. He’s making the team for sure.

It does add up to 53, I think we'll stash the 4th RB on the PS and only one of A Smith and Covey makes it.

That said that's the 53 if we were solely going on whats available right now, I hope and expect that we bring in a vet DT following roster cuts, we carried 6 last year and it wasn't enough. If Calais Campbell could be persuaded to take a rotational role at DT he was quietly pretty good in Atlanta running a hybrid scheme last year even at 37 and said he wanted to play another year, if we could get him to play 450 snaps (he played over 700 last year) he could be a solid pick up

Agreed. Until Carter and Davis prove they can sustain success over a full season, the interior DL cannot be considered a strength.
