If he wanted to, he had their judgement in the Force so clouded, he could've killed any one of them (Yoda included) any time he wanted. He actually wanted to give them a false sense of invincibility. I think he purposely commisioned "dummy" droids that would help him overcome the weak but give the Jedi just enough of a fight so they wouldn't suspect anything. Lol I tell myself the only reason they have Special Forces, etc versions is due to Grevious's constant complaints. I could see him walking the ship during an after battle assesment like "Seriously....there were like 50 of you dudes and only TWO of them!"

That's a really interesting idea- that Sideous wanted to make a statement wiping them out.
I think he had to degrade the Jedi Order through warfare- making them war weary and stretched so thin that when Order 66 got sent, each Jedi was outnumbered 10-1 by the clones, with no two Jedi working together, always leading their clone troops solo.
It also made setting the Jedi up easy- no Jedi were left to dispute the charges after Sideous was done with them.
