Pete Robertson

For the second week in a row, Robertson makes this list.  He has to be in consideration for making the 53-man roster.  It would be a slight shock if he doesn’t make it.

Robertson continues to make plays in the middle of the defense.  He was also credited with half a sack against the Vikings.  He had a total of three tackles.

Robertson again is a player that has some people to hurdle on the depth chart.  He is behind Terrell Suggs at his position but overall is in a spot where there are seven or eight guys in addition that could make the team.

For now, he should be projected to make the 53-man roster but there is a a lot of players to choose from.  With his preseason play if he were to not make the team, it wouldn’t be long before he is picked up by another.  Hopefully the Cardinals do not allow that to happen.
