So what will be the Eagles' 53-man roster on opening day next year?

[PhillyandBCEagles]

1 pt. per correct pick.

I'll start off:

QB: Donovan McNabb, Koy Detmer, Sage Rosenfels
RB: Brian Westbrook, Ciatrick Fason, Correll Buckhalter
FB: Jon Ritchie, Thomas Tapeh
WR: Terrell Owens, Derrick Mason, Greg Lewis, Todd Pinkston, Vincent Jackson
TE: LJ Smith, Dave Kashetta, Mike Bartrum
OT: Tra Thomas, Jon Runyan, Trey Darilek, Michael Munoz, Rob Pettiti
OG: Shawn Andrews, Artis Hicks, Steve Sciullo, Dave Baas
C: Hank Fraley, Alonzo Ephraim

DT: Corey Simon, Darwin Walker, Sam Rayburn, Hollis Thomas, Luis Castillo
DE: Jevon Kearse, Derrick Burgess, ND Kalu, Jerome McDougle
LB: Jeremiah Trotter, Dhani Jones, Keith Adams, Mark Simoneau, Mike Labinjo, Ryan Claridge
CB: Lito Sheppard, Sheldon Brown, Rod Hood, Matt Ware, Dexter Wynn
S: Brian Dawkins, Michael Lewis, JR Reed, Quintin Mikell

K: David Akers
P: Dirk Johnson

I thought of doing this contest too, but with each day that passes, more information is added.  For example, you're already wrong about Derrick Mason and missing Hugh Douglas.  Also, I would allow people to just put "2005 draft pick" in, because it's not a mock draft contest.

Anyway, I started to make up a 53-man team, and my head hurts.  Farg it.

Including the rooks is part of the challenge IMO...moot at this point I guess tho.

I think this can be done now with only a few players of "give".  Only the numbers that will count on the 53-man roster are in parentheses.

QB (3):  McNabb, Detmer, McMahon, Hall*
HB (3):  Westbrook, Buckhalter**, Moats, Mahe/Levens, Perry*
FB (1):  Ritchie, Tapeh**  Parry
WR (5):  Owens, Pinkston**, G. Lewis, R. Brown, McMullen, Jenkins**, Perez, Redd*
TE (3):  Smith, Spach, Bartrum, Whalen*
OL (9):  Thomas, Hicks, Fraley, Andrews, Runyan, Herremans, Clarke, Jackson*, Young*, Armstrong, Darilek
DL (10):  Kearse, Kalu, McDougle***, J. Thomas, Cole, Douglas, Walker, Rayburn, Patterson, Thomas, Grasmanis, Marshall*
LB (7):  Trotter, Jones, Adams, Simoneau, McCoy, Labinjo, Short, Ma. Patterson*
CB (5):  Sheppard, S. Brown, Hood, Wynn, Ware
S (4):  Dawkins, M. Lewis, Mikell, Considine, Reed**
ST (2):  Akers, Johnson

Notes:  Obviously, there will be a few seemingly less important decisions for the Eagles to make, but I think this is largely how it will go.  I believe the Eagles will add another RB (probably Levens) after week 1 and drop Mahe.. I hope.

Everyone should notice that back in may I predicted that Simon wouldn't be on the team. Some might call it luck. I call, well luck I guess, so what?

You just copied my list and replaced Bergeron with Buckhalter.  Biter.

There are other differences just on first glance but suffice to say, my list is money and yours is poop.
