OFFENSIVE LINE:

  1. Russell Okung
  2. Justin Britt
  3. J.R. Sweezy
  4. Alvin Bailey
  5. Patrick Lewis
  6. Lemuel Jeanpierre
  7. Terry Poole (R)
  8. Mark Glowinski (R)
  9. Kristjan Sokoli (R)
  10. Garry Gilliam

MY TAKE:

Okung, Britt and Sweezy are entrenched as starters.  Lewis and Bailey will get first crack at C and G, respectively.  Poole and Gilliam can swing to both tackles, while Bailey, Jeanpierre and Glowinski give you depth at Guard.  But if Bailey doesn’t show up in shape (he’s reportedly lost 25 lbs this offseason) or has a bad camp, one of the rookies may get an early chance.

They usually keep 9 or 10 OL on the roster, but with the influx of youth I think you have to keep 10.  The Sokoli-to-Center project may take some time, but his elite athleticism is so intriguing he may not make it through waivers, so stashing him on the practice squad might not be an option.
