Projected 53 man roster

3

Jackson soon to be See You Later.

I remember seeing some talk from anonymous scouts that said Coy Cronk was the steal of UDFA. Haven’t heard anything about him yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a developmental guy they want to stash. Love those B10 linemen!

Uphoff beats out Redmond or Scott.

Think Jackson is done.

I think Cronk ends up on PS

He should make it on his name alone.  He got "Cronked"

This competition at RB will be interesting....

For bench warmer?? Jones is the starter. Dillon #2 and then.......

Dillon should have been USED in that Tampa Bay game after Jones went down, especially after he proved himself against Tennessee. Coaching blunder.

He was our third string back in that game.

I think Kylin Hill will get a little action. Probably about as much as Dillon did last year. Maybe more assuming no injuries or COVID.

I have a feeling Patrick Taylor makes the roster and they keep four RBs, with Taylor, Amari and Cobb all getting gadget plays and Taylor getting the chance to return kickoffs.

Yeah, I like Taylor too. Would hate to cut him or Hill.

I like Taylor as well but only so many roster spots and don't see them keeping more than three. Williams has had a strong camp as well and expect one or even both to be PS bound.

They are going to be light at least one roster spot to start the year with Sternberger suspended. Likely will go into the season with Bahk on the PUP unless he's ready to go soon. I think they will be able to overload a position or two if they choose to. If they can contribute somewhere on ST's that will help their chances.

Sternberger does not count against the 53 man roster while he is on the suspended list.

Yes, but if Jace wins a job on the 53 they'll have someone they cut in a couple weeks holding that down...

Did anyone else have this guy on the 53?

MLF has said he wants to run the ball so much having 4 ball carriers would be ideal.

Tipa the OLB is out there with the 1s today in the 2 minute drill.

After Hill, you've got Patrick Taylor on PS, plus Deguara can tote the rock and so can Amari Rodgers and his understudy, Cobb. They might keep Taylor on 53 till Sternberger comes back from suspension, but Hill looks like  he has RB3 locked up

Kylin is getting a lot of reps at RB.

Yep, and 2 weeks of an NFL schedule has this funny way of making tough roster decisions for you. Who will be this years Deguara?

Hopefully not Deguara

Very interesting article.

I agree with him on a few things.

I think Malik Taylor is now a lock for WR#6.

I think Sternberger is now very much on the bubble.

I think Lucas Patrick is also on the bubble.

I agree that Heflin has show something and may make the squad.

I was shocked (SHOCKED, I TELL YOU!) that Winslow was cut. And I just hope that the FO is looking for an upgrade from Opie.

I don’t see Begelton making this team, but it was nice seeing a decent kick return by him. Special teams is a mess. Nice tackle by Uphoff though.

Malik and Uphoff may make it due to special teams. Redmond and Patrick may be surprise cuts. Would love to see Heflin instead of Lancaster.

Wait, if Taylor is the lock at #6 WR then where is Funchess? I can't see them cutting Funchess. They would need to keep 7 WR to keep Taylor and that's not out of the question.

Here is my shitty take….

Funchess is more of a #3 than a 6 or 7. Cobb and Lazard fill that role in GB.

The problem is your lower tiered wrs have to play STs, Funchess doesn’t do that. While I think he is probably better than a guy like Taylor, he’s likely going to be the odd man out because he won’t be able to contribute from the bench.

Funchess and Patrick might be trade material.

The problem is when your ST are so beyond shitty, cutting a superior talent at a skill position is a self defeating IMO. 

You could put a 55 gallon drum of lard on ST and get the same results.

Keep the best receivers for their receiver skills. You know, their job.

Find someone to play Special Teams.  Seriously it’s running and tackling.

Unless, there’s no way you’re talking about Taylor as a returner, are you?  And who said Funchess can’t play ST’s?

I guess I agree it’s a shitty take.

I'll be shocked if Malik Taylor isn't on the final 53 (he's a local guy and I have an admitted bias).

Malik Taylor is a bottom of the roster scrub.   The only way he should make the roster is if you are able to trade one of your other WR's for DL help.   The  only candidate there is Funches.

Samsies. 

There are only 4 WR guaranteed to make the final 53...17, 83, 8 and 18

Everyone else is trade or waiver bait.

Disagree. 13 is a lock. 5 WR's are a sure thing.

Also disagree.  MLF wants enough WRs that block well so he can maximize options on run/pass.

I see five locks at WR and the question is if they keep six or possibly seven.

Heflin has had a nice camp and it wouldn't surprise me to see him make the cut over Lancaster.  Similar players but one is younger and cheaper.

Practice squad?

Packers cut LB Kamal Martin and trade CB Kadar Hollman to Houston for a 7th Round pick in 2022:

Another roster move: Packers released DT Josh Avery. Still one more move to make to get to 80 by 3 pm today.
