Man what is with this roster? Think I saw they are keeping 13 DB's and only 3 ILB. Gotta assume one of those Safeties, maybe even 2 will be one of those S/ILB hybrids?

They actually kept friggin Joe Callahan and Brandon Burks on the roster. They need to find a new LS to since they cut Lovato

Yes - and by my count 7 WRs - remember when some said TT would never do that?  Not knocking anyone - just saying.  By my count there are really 3 moves that need to be made.  The LS cut is a wash since we will need one.  I think S Whitehead could go, CB Dealorant could be cut, and WR Trevor could be IR'd.  That would do it. 

But as I stated earlier, 2 of the WRs can play RB.  It's a 'same difference' wash.

Cowboys may be in hot water with league for signing Sanchez before NFL issued official transaction report for the day, source tells PFT.

It's not as if the Vikings were going to get the picks in to the commissioner on time, anyway.

Isn't it punishment enough that they, you know, signed Sanchez?

Lose draft picks for signing Sanchez, That would be funnier than signing Sanchez.

So I guess this the FINAL* 53 man roster

*Who knows what will happen in 2 days

The Packers have 13 rookies who made the team. 13.

Ted likes 'em young. And cheap.

I think one of the DBs will get cut, possibly someone put on IR, just not sure who, to replace the LS. Heard Goode worked out today and if he clears medically he gets his job back.

And he likes his UDFAs, as that gives him leverage in the aftermath of the draft when his minions are trying to sign them. They know in Green Bay they're not just gonna be a camp body.

The Packers are expected to re-sign Brett Goode on Sunday, per a league source. Goode worked out for the team... http://es.pn/2bUsPdo

Here's a shocker:

Packers are the 3rd youngest team in the NFL.

Only the rebuilding Browns and relocated Rams are younger.

They wouldn't have had that problem if they'd just signed Johnny Football

The apple don't fall far from the tree...

Ed Werder @Edwerderespn

By my count, the Seahawks have 14 rookies, including six new undrafted free agents on their 53-man roster....

The obsession has gone too far now.   

Better tell that to John Schneider too.

Take a pill....Roster isn't complete yet

Bobby McGinn makes the same point in this nice wrap-up of the day's moves, boss.

You don't like young players? What's wrong with you? 

I'm assuming Janis or Davis go on IR to make room for a long snapper.

None of these guys plays Oline. You know that, right? Are you really just whining?

Yes. Exclusively whining.

#Packers will sign DT Brian Price to their practice squad, per league source. They like his potential to develop down the road.

Nine more to go.

Devin Hester signs a 1 year deal with the Ravens. 

Packers claimed RB Jhurell Presley (Vikings).

Pressley clocked a 4.38 40-yard dash at New Mexico’s Pro Day, a time that would have been the second-fastest by a back at the NFL Scouting Combine (Keith Marshall, 4.31).

I'm assuming this means Burks is gone.

Chiefs claimed former Packers LB Sam Barrington on waivers, per source.

Draft profile, a most interesting read.

KC apparently cut Mulumba to make room for Barrington.

shocker

#Packers also signed ILB Carl Bradford to practice squad for second straight year. Came close to cracking 53-man roster this year.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
Can confirm #Packers signed OLB Reggie Gilbert to practice squad.

And in other breaking Packer News, Packers have signed Patrick as a guard on the PS! I wonder if he has a Jersey out yet?

(Replacement for Sitton?)~

Good. I think he deserved one more chance, and he seems to be well liked in the afternoon.

 Really like his size. Hope he is able to replace Elliott at some point.
