This list of 22 would be a true bitch if Abby, Barclay, Raji, Neal, and Joe Thomas were all healthy.
Talk about dropping some talent in the Rick Spielman supplemental 2.0 draft.
**** this roster is deep.

Do we start the season with Tretter on the roster and go with 7 healthy OL?
If they do IR w/ return who is the 8th OL?
Think GB has to keep Tretter on the roster and trust he's good to go by week 5. Don't need him to start immediately. Just need him to be ready if needed.
If all goes well he's starting at C after the bye and Linsley is trusted depth at G or C.
Football is easy if everyone stays healthy.
I would keep Richardson as well.
I'm starting to think they go with 5 WR's and keep the 6th stashed on the PS. This gives them another roster spot to keep a 4th TE until Bostic comes back or possibly 3rd QB.

I agree, Adams and Janis both make the roster, after that there isn't any WR that the Packers couldn't afford to lose on a waiver claim.
I'll go with H5's list except I cut Flynn and keep Richardson. I don't likre doing that but I think that is what TT & MM do.
Man, it's going to be really tough this year with the DB group
Shields
Hayward
Tramon
Hyde
Ha Ha Dix
Burnett
Richardson
Banjo
Bush
Rolle
That's 10 guys that should be on the active roster but they can't keep everyone. Banjo and Bush are great special teams guys and you need them. It's possible Richardson might be the odd man out
Divide the threads into before and after we beat Seattle with special teams.
Still really have no idea how the TE position will shake out. I've got Perillo to the PS and Bostick and Rodgers in, but I can see Quarless, Stoneburner and Taylor as being either in or out.
Still see the team only going with two quarterbacks with Flynn the odd man out.

I can envision a situation where Tretter comes back and sits on the bench because Linsley has proven himself to be effective.

That's only 21, but I bet we see 1 or 2 additional players go on IR. Just my guess.
Can't TT put a few more guys on IR before the cut down?
EDIT: I like GD's list, except TolZZZZZZZZZZZZien won't make it to the PS IMO.
Otherwise the Packers don't need any of the guys in your cut list.
And other teams are not going to be fighting to sign the guys on your PS list to their 53 man active rosters.

Tretter already won the job and will get the job when he heals. I think if Linsley performs well then there will be competition, but it's Tretter's job to lose.
Not sure why Tolzien would be a hot commodity? Everyone who needs a backup QB probably has one at this point. And it's not a good idea, as Mike McCarthy learned, to sign your backup QB the week before your first game. There aren't many teams that still keep 3 QBs either so the team that picks him up is either desperate for a #2 or will want him on their PS...and why would he leave GB to go to someone else's PS? Not happening.
I thought Linsley was already in the HOF right next to Sherrod.
Sound logic on Tolzien, GD. You may be right on that.
We keep three QBs.
CUT TRETTER!!

You don't think Davon House is making the roster?
Jayrone Elliott, an UDFA OLB playing in a week 4 preseason game was drawing double teams. DOUBLE TEAMS!!!
Change to my cuts... keeping Richardson and cutting Rolle. Then Rolle to PS.
I don't see keeping 3 QB's. If we have to go to the third QB, the season is probably lost anyway. Flynn is ready now, but Tolzein might be the back up of the future. So, they question is "develop" the future backup or have a ready to go backup.
GD is right in regards to Tolzein and the PS.
From all the praise Rolle has been getting, tough to see him making it through waivers?

After the QB guru's experience with Graham Harrell he has to be thrilled to have a QB with some actual talent like Tolzein. You don't try and sneak a player onto the PS unless you're completely prepared to lose them in the waiver process. That's a risk I can't see the Packers taking.
Good with ChumpyJon's list just switch zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz with Flynn if a QB is cut.
I also imagine there will be a cut OL big DL fatty or MLB on another team that will cause someone else to get bounced.
I can see uncle Ted working some ROTTTen magic with a trade or two.
Glad it's TT's problem to make these cuts. Tough job.
This would be a great year, to see the Packers on Hard Knocks. Tough job, but interesting to see how cuts are made.
Crazy to think that 6 days before the season starts, there are only 8 guys I would safely consider goners.
CB Ryan White
LB Jake Doughty
RB LeDarius Perkins
S Tanner Miller

G Jordan McCray
RB Michael Hill
I've got some guesses how some positions will shake out, but these are really the only guys I would be surprised to see on the final 53. You can probably make a case for anyone else on the bubble.
