The key players who were on the bubble that made it:
- They carry 3 true TEs with Nowakowski as a FB / TE with Tonyan
- Eli Heidenreich appears to have won the RB3 job
- 9 OL, but very interior heavy. Probably need an OT in there

QBs: Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Will Howard, Drew Allar
RBs: Jaylen Warren, Rico Dowdle, Eli Heidenreich
