2. James Smith-Williams, OLB

During training camp, it quickly became obvious that James Smith-Williams would make the final roster. He hardly saw any action in the preseason which proved the confidence the coaching staff had in him.

However, this is a position that the front office will target as the trade deadline looms closer. They were aggressively pursuing Montez Sweat last year, they snagged Matt Judon a few weeks ago, and they won't stop there.

Finding a complement for Judon is important. If they can pull off a trade then James Smith-Williams will see his name off the roster.
