I kept R. Rodgers, Thomas and Elliot due to numbers they normally keep at their positions and I don't see a strong challenge to be had...

- R. Rodgers - I never said Ted Thompson was satisfied. I think the Packers will be keeping at least 3 TEs, and I think R. Rodgers is a lock to be within the top 3 TEs on the Packers rosters. I don't see Sandland or Peck beating out Rodgers.

- Thomas - The involvement of the Safeties at ILB is most likely going to take the 4th ILB spot... but Thomas seemed to be clearly in the top 3 ILB last year... of course maybe I'm over rating Thomas and underrating someone like Jordan Tripp, Cody Heiman, or David Talley. So I'll take Thomas off the locked list, and put him on my inside bubble list.

- Elliot - At OLBers they normally keep 6. Matthews, Perry, Fackrell and Biegel take up four spots, leaving two spots open... and Elliot is also a ST stud so clearly he's got the tie breaker... what two other OLBers could clearly beat him out? I don't see it, so I believe a healthy Elliot is a clearly a lock.

- Edited: Safety Evans, I also need to take him off the locked list, because while I think it's a good chance they keep 5 Safeties (with 3 ILBers)... that's not a lock, and he's not a lock if another UDFA like Brice comes around. There is also Jermaine Whitehead (if he can play ST correctly) and I've heard that rookies Aaron Taylor's change of direction and quickness stood out in shorts.

Elliot will probably make it just because of a numbers game. Don't think he's a lock though, anymore than Janis or Allison in that regard.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

I awoke this morning with a headache. I still went to work. She went back to sleep.

My biggest shocker, only two RBs? The Packers made that mistake last year... and with injuries two RBs went to none. RBs get injured a lot... and they drafted 3... I think at least two will stick. Also they might not be a sure thing to make it to the PS.

I think Jordan Tripp is an ILB in the Packers system... he's about 15 pounds lighter than all the other OLBers (since Fackrell has gained weight), and he's right in line with the ILBers.

Don't forget Randall Cobb.
Mike's package with him being a rb hasn't been thrown out .
I see Ripkowski getting more touches this season.
Stash 2 rb's on the PS and have them ready to go.

Some people are saying there is a ton of competition at WR, and while that may true for the last 2 spots, it does not mean anyone but the top 3 will matter. The way I see it, we are thinner at WR than we have been in years (not accounting for injury). Aside from our top 3 we don't have shit. And 1 of those 3 is getting old while another is on the verge of being a cap casualty if he doesn't get his game right soon. If we don't reload ASAP we may be really hurting at WR a year or 2 from now. We have to extend Adams ASAp or we're super screwed. It's a good thing we signed those Tight Ends.

I expect 6 of the 8 will still be there after the Practice Squad is created.
2 years from now there will probably at least 2 new draft picks.
Not sure what you expect.
Janis has probably hit his peak, someone beats him out at gunner, he will be gone.
We still have no clue how good the rest can be.
Davis and Allison flashed last year, the rest will all be competing to show they belong.

Reloading at WR is all Ted has been doing.

If there is one position I'll never doubt Ted on its WR, he knows how to pick them.

Then add in the injury factor for all the teams, GB will keep 3 on the 53. That's the only sure way to protect them from being stolen.

Here's something else we have not had a chance to factor in- With so many QBs coming out in the draft next year, the odds of trading Hundley for any significant draft pick has dropped to almost zero. Unless it's a dire emergency like a TC injury no one will want to give up a draft pick when they can get a QB without doing so. There is no guarantee that Hundley will be good enough to start for anyone this year. Last year MN didn't make the playoffs after they acquired Bradford.
