A 53-man roster under the salary cap using actual cap numbers with certain parameters, which are below, was a sembled at the start of the season. The composition of the roster has changed dramatically in this midseason version because of a rash of injuries to the original selections and 2017 performances, which are a significant factor. is no longer the choice Sergei Boikov Women Jersey at quarterback because of his broken collarbone. The backfield was decimated by serious injuries to , and . The defense wasn't spared losing three-time Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt and five-time Pro Bowl safety .Parameters1. The salary cap for the roster is $175.1 million. The actual NFL salary cap is $167 million for this year. The number being used is the league's average adjusted salary cap according to NFLPA data. Each 's working salary cap varies largely because unused cap room can be carried over from one year to the next.2. The is an e sential element of roster building for NFL teams so it is here also. One player from each round of 2017 draft must be on the roster. All rookies are eligible to be backups regardle s of their role with their respective teams. The number requirement drops by one player for each year of the preceding three drafts (2014-16). There's also a limit of one player per round. Thus, only four 2014 draft picks are required. The 2014 first round is particularly strong with Pro Bowlers , , Jr., , and . The round limitation forces a choice to be made between them. There's one other Bowen Byram Jersey draft pick constraint. Only one 2013 first round pick that signed a contract extension can be a selection although one isn't required. 3. The backups at each position are limited to players that aren't established starters. Young veterans, particularly second year players, solidifying a place in the lineup for the first time this season are no longer allowed to be backups. Players such as wide receiver ( ), tight end ( ), defensive lineman ( ) and defensive tackle ( ) can no longer be depth. They need to be starters in order to be included. 4. Players that aren't clear cut starters or where there's a "by committee approach" at a position, usually running back, are acceptable as reserves. A backfield containing and is prohibited since both are workhorse or every down running backs. Players only starting because of an injury are fair game as backups. There's one big allowance being made defensively. Three starting cornerbacks are acceptable without sacrificing a starter in a traditional base defense since five or more defensive backs are now used over 60% percent of the time in the NFL. The result is twelve defensive starters.5. Choosing a player that was given a franchise or transition designation in 2017 is optional. However, only one player receiving a 2017 designation can be selected. Here's the revamped team I a sembled with some of my thoughts behind the selections. The 2017 salary cap number for each player is in parentheses.STARTERSOFFENSE WAS QB #11 $6,069,684 A high quality quarterback on a rookie contract is the best value in the NFL. The roster flexibility the almost $8 million cap number difference between the 2016 second overall pick and quarterback couldn't be ignored. Wentz's dramatic improvement from his rookie year in leading the to an NFL best 7-1 record has put him squarely in the NFL MVP discu sion. He's tied for the NFL lead with 19 touchdown pa ses. CLE RB #27 Salary: $658,980 running back Le'Veon Bell was never a consideration because the $12.12 million franchise tag he's playing under this season makes him cost prohibitive. Hunt's NFL career is off to a historic start. The 2017 third round pick is the first player to ever have at least 100 scrimmage yards in each of his first seven career games. Hunt's 763 rushing yards in eight games are tops in the NFL. His 1,070 yards from scrimmage this season Anton Lindholm Jersey are also an NFL best. TB WR #81 Salary: $13,620,484 No wide receiver has come close to matching Brown's production over the previous four years. Brown is performing up to his usual standards this season. He's leading the NFL with 57 receptions and 834 receiving yards. Brown also has reached the end zone three times. ARI WR Joe Sakic Kids Jersey #18 Salary: $13 million Going with Wentz at quarterback makes it po sible to have another wide receiver with a big cap number. Green has benefitted from Cincinnati firing offensive coordinator Ken Zampese two games into the season and elevating quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor to the position. MIA WR #10 Salary: $589,260 Hill will operate out of the slot. He has validated Kansas City's confidence in him to take over number one wide receiver duties from , who was a surprise cut in June. Hill is on track to top 75 catches and 1,100 receiving yards. His excellent kick and punt return skills are a bonus. ARI TE #86 Salary: $3,026,880 Ertz isn't having a breakout season as some have suggested. He's picked up where he left off last year. Over the last 16 regular season games, Ertz has caught 98 pa ses for 1,097 yards with 10 touchdowns. The only other tight end that has comparable production during this span is (Chiefs). A first Pro Bowl berth appears to be on the horizon for Ertz. LAR T #77 Salary: $9,173,116 Whitworth has helped solidify an offensive line that ranked 31st in sacks allowed last season with 49. He's been a catalyst to the ' surprising 5-2 start. The Rams have given up 10 sacks this season, which is tied for third best in the NFL.LG: Josh Sitton-Bears ($6,791,666)Sitton has been worth every penny since signing a three-year, $21 million deal after his unexpected release from the right before the start of the 2016 season. A participant in the last three Pro Bowls, Sitton has been his usual consistent self this season. SF C Joonas Donskoi Jersey #50 Salary: 8,306,665 Mack was one of the best free agent signings of 2016. There may not be a more complete center in the NFL than Mack.RG: Shaq Mason-Patriots ($732,976)Mason has been outstanding in New England's run game. His prowe s as a run blocker overshadows any deficiencies he may have in pa s protection.RT: Demar Dotson-Buccaneers ($4,306,235)Dotson has been a bright spot on a disappointing 2-5 squad. He has done an excellent job keeping opposing pa s rushers from getting close to quarterback . DEFENSE BAL DE #93 Salary: $10,506,020 Campbell couldn't have had a better debut with the . His career high and franchise record four sacks against the led to him being named the initial AFC Defensive Player of the Week this season. It only took Campbell seven games to establish a new single season high of 10 sacks. Campbell will spend considerable time as an interior rusher on obvious p
