Matty:
To tell the truth, I like Royster better than Torrain - - someone on whom I cannot depend.
I like the rotation of Hightower, Helu and Royster. Each brings something a bit different to the game meaning the running game would have different dimensions based on which TB is in there.
With Williams getting a lot of minutes in practice at RB and Sellers at FB. I wonder if it's Hightower, Helu, and Williams and Young and Sellers at FB. Royster on the PS and Torain gone or more likely out for the first few weeks

True, put Torain on PUP?

I can see either Torain or Royster making it, but it makes more sense to keep Torain and stash Royster on the PS. That way if something happens to Torain you can just sign Royster to the active roster.
If Helu is to be the primary backup to Hightower, Torain, if he survives would be #3 on the DC. Since he does not play teams, I'm wondering what role he plays on Sunday unless he makes the 53 and is rendered inactive on game days.

He's not eligible for the PUP list

He would have to be on it already? Even then we would lose him for the first 6 weeks, probably not worth it.

You can't be on it if you're on the active roster at the start of training camp and he was

It looks like Darrel Young will end Sellers' tenure and that makes me happy. Nothing against Sellers but we've needed an upgrade.

I see something like this. I can't see them cutting Williams, he has proven his value in a few different roles. Sellers is more likely to get cut, but I see him making it for the same reasons; he can play a couple positions plus spec. teams.
Royster hasn't looked great to me, definitely PS material & Torain may have to go simply due to his injuries.

Neither Torain or Royster clears the waiver wire. Arizona with the injury and Miami with the Johnson will gladly land one of those two backs.
