Bad Bob's 53: Packers look Deep, Settled

WR   6

TE    3

OL    8

QB    3

RB    4

DL    7

LB    9

DB   10

ST    3

 

Total  53

WR  6

TE  3

OL  8

QB  2 (not keeping 3 QB's )

RB  4

DL  7

LB 10 (MM likes this body type for special teams)

DB  10

ST  3

Have to agree on the TE's. I think TT goes with 4 because of MM's love of TE's and those TE sets. With Lacy in the backfield, he could run an all TE set and confuse the defense quite nicely.

Offense

QB - Rodgers, Flynn (2)
HB - Lacy, Starks, Harris (3)
FB - Kuhn (1)
WR - Nelson, Cobb, Boykin, Adams, Jannis, Dorsey (6)
TE - Bostic, AQ, Rodgers, Taylor (4)
T - Bahk, Bulaga, Sherrod (3)
G - Sitton, Lang, Taylor (3)
C - Tretter, Linsey (2)

 

Defense

S - Dix, Hyde, Burnett, Richardson (4)
CB - Williams, Shields, Hayward, House, Goodson, Bush (6)
ILB - Hawk, Jones, Barrington, Lattimore (4)
OLB - Mathews, Peppers, Neal, Perry, Mulamba, Bradford (6)
DL - Daniels, Raji, Jones, Thorton, Boyd, Pennel{Guion on PUP} (6)

 

Specialists

K - Crosby (1)
P - Ginger (1)
LS - Goode (1)

 

The only place I struggled was with the 6th WR and the 6th OLB. If Guion isn't on PUP i think he takes that 6th OLD roster spot.

 Looks about right to me.  Though, the majority of the X4 crew may not think there are enough Badgers on the team for the Packers to be a contender.

Looks about right.  The only spot I'd question is Dorsey, who I consider to be the last guy to make the roster.  I think that spot comes more down to talent, not position.  IMO, Tolzien has more NFL talent than Dorsey, so you keep Tolzien (and Dorsey probably slips through waivers to the PS).  

I think they're keeping three QBs. Probably at the expense of Dorsey or Taylor/Quarless.

But if we only keep 3 TE's, 2 will go IR at some point.

Yeah.. 6th WR and last OLB are the position battles IMO.

"the great" Tolzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzien

That's just the sound Iowa makes when he fantasizes about him.

I predict that the Packers will retain 53 players.  The identities of whom are all up in the air.  How is that for going out on a limb?

I wish GB would have inserted Bradford in at MLB right off the bat... He doesn't appear to be showing much at OLB.  

He'll show even less at MLB. Maybe safety?

Not many 6'1, 250lb safeties...but ok.

2 years in a row Another LB bust from Arduhzona or Arduhzona state

Is Arduhzona in the same conference as Ioduh? 

Is it me or over the last few years has kworst inhabited iowacheese in a whoopi goldberg ghost kind of way?

 

Nice one DH13

keep me out of your fantasies

Ricky Elmore was drafted in 2011 dumdum.

shut up cog

Deep thinkers unite.

Abdul Hodge was a stud though.

Notes: CYA Flynn. If Rodgers goes down we'll give ya a call. Thanks!

 

Sherrod = 1 foot out the door

 

Welcome Mr. Elliott & Mr. Pwnnell!!

Keep an eye on Hubbard vs Mulamba. Hubbard's gotten some late playing time and he's making an impact. 

 

Pennell/Elliot definitely opening eyes.

 

His new name "Pwnnell"

Janis is a lock.

Good lord, instant acceleration.

I'd like to see Janis earn the starting PR job. If he does that, I put him in the "lock" category

He's already a LOCK.

If you haven't read Tom Oates' column, I highly recommend it:

I agree with him.   While McCarthy says this may be the deepest WR corp, I don't think that's accurate.  They have the POTENTIAL to be the best WR corp, but most have very little experience, and Jordy seems to be having hammy problems more often than not.

 

Therefore, I firmly believe we should keep 6 on the roster.

 

My picks:

 

1.  Jordy

2.  Cobb

3.  Boykin

4.  Adams

5.  Janis.  I wouldn't be shocked if he moved higher during the season if he gets a chance and enough reps with Rodgers.

6.  This is really tough.  I think both Myles White and Kevin Dorsey have shown tremendous effort and some really good skills.  I'd say it's a toss-up.

 

How about the rest of you guys?

I can't see keeping 6 WR unless one is a gunner, punt returner extraordinaire 

He looked very sure of himself tonight. Hyde is nice fall back option - 12.3 average as a rookie - but if he's going to be playing starter minutes he's probably too valuable to put in that position if there are other good options.

 

Thanks, Adbracadumdum.

Janis!

 

Or possibly Myles White?
