Thank you... also looking at the list, they're missing QB, RB, TE and CB with two spots left.

QB: It will be interesting to see if they sign another QB or not... since they have 3 on the 53 man roster.

RB: It's been reported that despite making the 53 man roster (for a day), that the Packers don't plan on signing RB Brandon Burks to the practice squad (man, I feel bad for the kid... one day you made the 53 man roster... the next... we're completely moving on). This might be crazy... but I'm kind of with nerdmann on wanting to develop FB Alstevis Squirewell. Squirewell was a college DL just last year... and yet he was playing FB better than some college FBs/RBs when they come to the pros... and he seemed to be quickly improving even though he was so raw and has a lot of catching up to do. But if he gets a chance to develop, I think he could grow to become better than Quinn Johnson as physical sledgehammer.

TE: Again, many fans have thought WR Cajuste would be a receiving TE in the NFL... so maybe the Packers are signing him to switch him to H-back, which would cover the TE spot.

CB: No idea.... but maybe Robertson Daniel or someone new/athletic.

Cajuste is a guy I remember being bandied about by fans (Packers) regarding being a TE conversion project. I hope he's not another Tory Humphrey or David Martin.

That does suck for Burks. He was just a pawn for us but you do what you need to do to get better as a team not releasing Sitton withstanding.

I think they'll add another QB to the PS. Joe Callahan. 🤣

Look at this PS squad closely. We'll be releasing our pro bowl players to insert some of them down the road.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

That happens every so often. I find it interesting that fans take it so hard sometimes, like WR Myles White not wanting to resign to the Packers PS after being on the 53 man roster for a very short time, before they resign James Jones and released Jones.

But honestly, I thought WR Geronimo Allison might want to go elsewhere as they kept 7 WRs over him and he might be able to make another roster with less depth (like a roster that only kept 5).

As of right now of course he's another Tory Humphrey and David Martin, as he's a project just like them.

Four members of the Green Bay Packers practice squad eventually got promoted to the active roster last season.

All four -- receiver Jared Abbrederis, running back John Crockett, cornerback Robertson Daniel and tight end Justin Perillo -- were on the initial practice squad for Week 1.

That bodes well for the group assembled by general manager Ted Thompson on Sunday, one day after the final cuts. He filled nine of the 10 allotted spots.

Here’s a look at those who were signed, according to the NFL’s daily transaction notice. The Packers did not announce any practice-squad moves.

WR Geronimo Allison: The undrafted rookie might have made the Packers’ 53 in most other years. But with seven receivers already on the roster, Allison was caught in a numbers crunch.

LB Carl Bradford: This is the second straight year on the practice squad for the 2014 fourth-round pick, who spent all of his rookie season on the roster but inactive for every game. Bradford had easily his best camp and might be the closest to getting called up considering there are only three natural inside linebackers on the roster.

LB Beniquez Brown: The undrafted rookie finished fifth on the team with 12 tackles in the preseason.

OLB Reggie Gilbert: The undrafted rookie posted 1.5 sacks in the preseason.

G Blake Muir: The only one of the signings who wasn’t with the Packers in training camp. The Australian played college football at Baylor and was in camp with the 49ers.

G Lucas Patrick: The undrafted rookie played most of training camp with a club cast on his broken right hand. Still, nobody took more reps in the one-on-one pass blocking drill than he did.

DT Brian Price: The undrafted rookie had to be one of the last cuts on Saturday. He probably lost out to Christian Ringo, who spent all of his rookie year last season on the practice squad.

WR Herb Waters: The undrafted rookie didn’t catch a pass in any of the four preseason games and averaged 23.5 yards on two kickoff returns.

CB Jermaine Whitehead: The undrafted rookie gives the Packers a whopping 13 defensive backs between the roster and practice squad.

One other player, former Stanford receiver Devon Cajuste, tweeted that he was being signed to the Packers’ practice squad. He was with the 49ers in the preseason. However, he was not listed on Sunday’s NFL transactions.

Fan Shout
Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.
beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
