D.C. Sports Bog - Vinny Cerrato Helps 53-Man Roster Guessers (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2009/09/vinny_cerrato_helps_53-man_ros.html?wprss=dcsportsbog)

A couple things of note from the article:
* He said "there's a good chance" of the team keeping a fifth running back. His radio voice made it seem like a very good chance.

"I would say that's probably, there's a good chance of that," he said. "Because what you want to do Kevin, it'll probably be 25 on offense, 25 on defense and three specialists. So it's just how you want to divide your numbers.

I think that indicates that Mason and/or Aldridge will make the team. Lots of buzz out of Redskins Park that he's very high on Aldridge.

* He was fairly definitive when asked if he thought the team would add an offensive lineman after other teams make cuts.

"No, no," was his exact response. "And I think this, I think with the Montgomerys and Rineharts and Mike Williams and Bridges and stuff, I think you've got experienced guys there that'll, I think, be productive."

Congratulations, Mike Williams. Welcome back to the NFL.

Pretty clear he was making the team anyways but this basically makes it official.

Actually this was the best quote, from Cerrato, when asked what Denver is asking for Brandon Marshall.

"I don't have the faintest idea," Cerrato said. "We like our locker room."

Maybe he's not a freaking idiot after all!

If there is a 5th back I'm betting it's Aldridge

Really, you guys don't think Mason will make it. Or are you including Mason?

"I don't have the faintest idea,"

Good...I think we've all seen enough potential out of our WR corps this off-season to give it a season to see how good it can become. It isn't the wasteland we thought it might be.

Who else would it be?

Dorsey, but very unlikely. My assumption is you are looking at Portis, Betts, Cartwright, Mason, and Aldridge. 5 running backs seem alot to me, especially if Mason does not play special teams.

Do the fullbacks count? I'm not sure about the math here? If he says we're keeping 5 backs, I'm thinking CP, LB, Rock, Sellers, and then Mason or Aldridge?

Yeah FB's count. You can't keep five tailbacks.
