Suspect Dupre is headed for the PS if he clears.
PackerPatrick posted:I read that by waiting to sign Brooks until Sunday they can carry a man on the roster and then IR-DTR. I wonder who that guy is?
Montravius Adams?
Considering Hundley has never been asked to win regular season games I think that insight by Cohen is a big fat no duh. He played a lot this preseason and the Packers were 3-1. So I guess Cohen is correct, but it's one of those good problems to have. I hope Hundley never has to prove he can win games while Rodgers is around! If Hundley is strong in game prep and can help Rodgers in-game then that's good enough. That and Favre liked him are the only reasons Doug Pederson hung on for years.
#Packers have released offensive lineman Adam Pankey, according to a league source.

Now Max is released. Did not want that.
Seattle released Ahtyba Rubin. Casualty of Richardson trade. Rubin is going to get picked up fast.
#Packers released rookie WR DeAngelo Yancey, WR Max McCaffrey and WR Michael Clark, per source. Each is a PS candidate, along with Dupre.

Maybe they keep Clark after all?
The #Packers are releasing WR Max McCaffrey. That's a bit of a surprise. Will be interesting to see if he gets claimed.

So Janis and Davis it is I guess. Not the duo I would have picked, but maybe this is the year Janis breaks out! I predict McCaffrey will end up in NE like Welker, Amendola, Edelman, Hogan, etc. Belichick loves other teams undervalued white Slot receivers.

Thanks, I missed that one. I wonder how many WRs are kept on 53? And who lands on PS?
Not surprise. Janis is valuable on ST and this organization values that significantly.
I'd have kept McCaffrey.
But not really that broken up about the 6th or 7th WR.
Any chance the Packers take him back?
The #Vikings are placing DE Datone Jones (shoulder) on Injured Reserve, source said. Likely will reach an injury settlement to be free.

Not if he's injured. Sounds like he was on the way out anyway.

Please no.
Pistol GB posted:Bottom line has to be what the player is showing. Fackrell has shown nothing since day 1. To give him a spot on the 53 this year with some "next year" ultimatum is ridiculous. It's a wasted spot.
TT continues to outsmart other GMs on draft day by not being concerned with players' injury histories:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyler_Fackrell
[However, concerns were also brought up about his age, as he was one of the oldest players in the draft, and was coming back from an injury. One AFC scout mentioned that he was really talented but he can no longer play in space since his injury. Another AFC scout also mentioned that he had not been the same since the injury. During the NFL Combine, Fackrell commented that doctors were very interested in his knee. He also commented that scouts did not seem concerned about his age at first, but as the draft neared it became a larger concern.
Sounds like Donatello Brown has been released. Hope he sticks on the PS.
Looks like Dom is scrapping the Ninja Turtle Defense.
Now, do we pick up a backup olineman? A vet like John Greco?
Edit: Time is up and we still have McCray and Patrick, I guess the plan is to stick with what we have. But the numbers still don't add up yet.
Packers release OL Amichia. No surprise. Very raw. Longshot to make the PS.
Reggie Gilbert release is a little surprising. Looked like he had a shot to make the 53.
packerboi posted:Correct, why it's stupid reasoning.
And he's 27, when most developing guys have hit their prime.
Being reported all three rookie RBs have been told they made the roster. Same for Pipkins and McCray. McCray has to know he isn't safe depending on who's available.
If Pipkins makes it, that means either we are keeping 12 DBs or Gunter or Hawkins are being cut....I don't see Pipkins making it over either of them
Always remember.....the roster is a living breathing entity....Just because these are the cuts today, doesn't mean the roster is "set in stone" & we've arrived.
I think the top 35-40 were well documented. The bottom of the roster will ALWAYS be churned, even throughout the season.

yeah. surprised and a little disappointed he didnt make the cut
#Packers will keep 6 WRs once Geronimo Allison returns from his 1-game suspension, forcing them to make a roster move. But 5 WRs for Week 1. https://t.co/hyonbSizP9

Best guess is #Packers place Montravius Adams on IR so he can get return designation, then sign Ahmad Brooks to fill empty spot for 5 OLBs.
— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) September 2, 2017
So Is Biegel active now? Any word?
Pipkins confirmed he did not receive a call from GB before the deadline. So he's on the 53.... for now.
Its still going to be a lonnnnnng 24 hours for a lot of guys waiting to see if they stick on the roster after waiver signings start.
I cannot believe the Packers will stick with 10 OL, even 9. Many a year they've gone with 7, and just a couple seasons they went with 8. More moves have to be coming.
Raw predictions: Adams and Biegel to PUP or IR. Cut: Goodson, Tripp, Kerridge, McCray, Leff,
Allison suspended so he does not count towards the 53, add Brooks equals 53.

Maybe MM thinks that if he keeps 5 bad backups, he can find one to play if needed.
