Where the Saints 90 man roster stands: locks, bubble guys and camp bodies

With training camp nearing I figured I’d put together a quick summary of where everyone stands going in. I’ve listed five different categories below: locks, probables, bubble guys, outside looking in and longshots. This is where I view the 90 guys on the team so far. Injuries, form and luck will of course influence many changes but this is where we stand going into camp in my mind:

LOCKS (24)

C Max Unger, CB Delvin Breaux, CB Keenan Lewis, CB Damian Swann, DE Cameron Jordan, DT Nick Fairley, DT Sheldon Rankins, LB Stephone Anthony, LB Kasim Edebali, LB James Laurinaitis, LB Craig Robertson, LS Justin Drescher, P Thomas Morstead, QB Drew Brees, RB Mark Ingram, S Vonn Bell, S Jairus Byrd, S Kenny Vaccaro, T Terron Armstead, G/T Andrus Peat, TE Coby Fleener, WR Brandin Cooks, WR Willie Snead, WR Michael Thomas

PROBABLES (19)

G Senio Kelemete, CB Brian Dixon, CB P. J. Williams, DE Obum Gwacham, DE Bobby Richardson, DT Tyeler Davison, DT John Jenkins, DT David Onyemata, G Tim Lelito, LB Dannell Ellerbe, LB Nathan Stupar, QB Luke McCown, RB Tim Hightower, RB C. J. Spiller, S Roman Harper, T Zach Strief, TE Josh Hill, TE Michael Hoomanawanui, WR Brandon Coleman

BUBBLE GUYS (16)

CB Tony Carter, CB Brandon Dixon, S Erik Harris, DE Darryl Tapp, DT Ashaad Mabry, FB Austin Johnson, K Connor Barth, K Kai Forbath, LB Michael Mauti, LB/DE Davis Tull, G Landon Turner, QB Garrett Grayson, RB Travaris Cadet, RB Daniel Lasco, RB Marcus Murphy, WR R. J. Harris

OUTSIDE LOOKING IN (17)

DL C. J. Wilson, S Trae Elston, CB De’Vante Harris, DT Lawrence Virgil, G Kaleb Eulls, G Cyril Lemon, LB Tony Steward, C Jack Allen, G/T Joe Cheek, OL Ryker Mathews, FB Sione Houma, S Alden Darby, T Tyrus Thompson, T Avery Young, TE Chris Manhertz, WR Reggie Bell, WR Vincent Brown

LONGSHOTS (14)

CB Ken Crawley, CB Jimmy Pruitt, DL D. J. Pettway, LB Hau’oli Kikaha (IR likely), LB Dillon Lee, LB Jeff Schoettmer, OL Marcus Henry, TE RaShaun Allen, TE Garrett Griffin, WR Jared Dangerfield, WR Jared Lampman, WR Tommylee Lewis, WR Kyle Prater, WR Jordan Williams-Lambert

Assuming everyone in the “locks” and “probables” categories made the team, that would leave 10 roster spots for the rest. But as we know training camp always has some surprises up it’s sleeve. Anyone you’d move up or down a category?
