I really hope we keep Onobun and to a lesser degree Fells and I also like both Adeyanju and C.J. Ah You.

Easy cuts to me are: Chamberlain and Ogbonnaya. If the point of playing RB were to avoid the holes that your offensive line opens up for you, Ogbonnaya would be a pro-bowler.

Carpenter on the bubble? Should have kept Alex Barron.
