Ayir Asante

Heard from someone reliable that there’s a good shot he may make the team as the last WR
Maybe not a wild thought

That he can actually make the team, anything is possible to be sure.

Absolute locks (3)
Nabers
Hyatt
Robinson

Near Locks or Trade:
Slayton (only tradeable, practically uncuttable)
Olszewski (450k dead)
Hodgins (375k dead)

So those are the likely first 6, if Asante is potentially 7th

Notable Cuts:
Miles Boykin (120k dead)
Isaiah McKenzie (75k dead)
Allen Robinson (25k dead)

IMO they have to keep 7 in order for this to work, whereas they kept 6 last year.

To figure Asante's biggest competition is McKenzie and to a point, Gunner.

I feel like Hodgins is battling but I'm not sure who, since he doesn't offer much as a ST'er. Same goes for Allen Robinson.

Boykin and Ford-Wheaton are fighting for one spot themselves.

Nabers, Wan'Dale, Hyatt, Slayton, open competition after
Slayton is a lock

It’s wide open after that. Any of the other receivers could take the last couple of spots.

he's a talent -- but he's a raw talent that needs work -- he's practice squad material
Asante also

Ford Wheaton is my dark horse

Something about him just seems special

my position reviews, I've been plugging him as a dark horse.

PS seems like a given at this point per the source.

^This. I wouldn't be surprised to see Asante and BFW as the last two WRs.

people listen….as that old commercial ran (prolly way before your time, ajr)

People weren’t too high on him. Thought it was more of a local guy / camp body that they were giving a shot. Would be a great story. Watching hi film , he certainly has some twitch and ability to make guys miss.
