This. But Justyn is the current love affair so it wont be seen that way.

- Toney
- MVS
- Skyy
- Rice
- James
- Watson

If we carry 7 WR's and keep one of the Ross's, who gets cut from one of the other position groups?

Yes - he is just so sneaky under the radar I forgot about him

What if both ross just share one jersey and swap out behind the gatorade cooler?

I'll go with cut one of the Ross just to clean up the confusion.

It's an either or option.

If he's healthy and actually looks competent? Another talented WR to add to the WR room. Why did people want Hyatt when we already have MVS?

If Ross shows that he's at least good at what he does, then it doesn't hurt this team to have another option along with Rice.

These things seem to work themselves out. Someone will get hurt and go on the IR. If not all of those guys are pretty established. If one or both of the Ross's is better in the preseason it is also pretty easy to deal one of those guys. Probably James or Watson, not like those contracts had a lot of years nor were over priced.

Chiefs also seem to open up a roster spot by not carrying a fullback and plan on using TE's for those play packages.

I think Justyn Ross has about a .5% chance of making the team, he probably sits on the PS for a year and gets another look next year after MVS is gone.

John Ross has about a 5% chance of making the team and the only reason I give him that is because his one skill is something the rest of the guys don't have, pure elite, world class speed.

And for the money thing this team ate money last year to cut Jermaine Carter after signing him.

It would either be RB or TE

We're not keeping a FB, so we've got an extra roster spot to work with.

The big question is if they do anything in preseason will they be able to stash them on the practice squad. Lot of rebuilding teams that should be looking to take a shot with young talented guys.

This makes me happy. I like Burton and didn't necessarily want to see him gone, but I never understood why they didn't use Blake Bell in that role. We use him for QB sneaks, we could use him as a lead blocker for the RBs (not that we did that much outside of that throwback sweep play in the Superbowl, but you get what I'm saying).

With this news, I'd say Justyn Ross likely has an early hold on the #7 spot. I'm assuming he'd be a better special teams player than John Ross, though.

If you don't see Justyn Ross in PS games that'd be why...a guy like John Ross is well known around the league and honestly no one is running to steal him.

MVS is in his last year though and will need replaced.

Rice kinda makes Ross redundant unless he's just too good to let go.

Ross is 6'4 Rice is 6' I'd like to think they aren't exactly the same thing.
