According to the Packers writers (via twitter)

OL Barclay has been told they're keeping him.

WR Boykins hasn't heard "anything from anybody" so no news yet other than he hasn't been told anything yet.

LB Manning. Rob Demovsky is "Hearing there's a strong chance #Packers LB Terrell Manning will stick"

S Richardson made the team according to college (and pro) teammate Hayward.

According to the Packers writers (via twitter) players are being cut. So far they're naming

C Genus
S Levine
C Draheim
T Datko
TE Bostick
OG Wells
WR Gurley
WR Borel
FB Cooper
OG Van Roten
OT Allard
WR Moss
DE Guy
WR Smithson (from the IR)
WR Gilleylen
C Draheim
RB Marc Tyler
DT Muir (probably means good things for Merling, Muir couldn't handle double teams)

CB/KR Merrill (they didn't say Merill was cut, but they said he was told to stick around for possible PS, which you can't get to the PS with out being cut so I'm making an assumption he was cut)


Articles that are being updated to announce the cuts are

Really surprised at the Gurley cut...had high hopes for him making the team this year.

Wonder why Datko was cut...

So far, only Levine is mildly surprising.. but with Richardson and McMillian I can see him being the odd man out.

I think he will latch on elsewhere.

I expected Brad Jones to be cut in the first wave..

Levine was looking really good. But, I'm glad for Richardson, who I think has a bit more potential. With any luck Levine sticks on our PS.

I don't see Gurley mentioned anywhere as being cut.

I believe Levine has been on your PS for two years now.. I think that to be the case anyway.

Levine has reached the peak of his playing ability. The younger guys still have untapped potential. If they don't they will have new rookies next year.

That far down the roster it is not that big a gamble.

I thought Levine played well enough to be kept, but the numbers game got him with McMillian and Jennings playing just as well or better and Richardson playing slightly worst a rookie learning the system and getting the close to a guy that should of already know the system, I think says something about his potential which puts him over.


I think the writers are reporting them as they get them, and they're not getting them from the packers but from the agents and others... so they might not be reported in waves that they were cut in, but how fast the agents leak it/how well the writers know the agents and call them.


One thing I'm a bit worried about is what is the game plan with back-up ILB. On my mock roster I didn't think the position deserved 5 spots (Hawk and Smith getting 2) but there is Lattimore is probably next but has an ankle injury, Francois who is solid as ILB and looked special in one game on special teams next but has a hamstring injury. If healthy I think those would be the four...

After that is rookie Manning who flashes some potential but also looks lost/easy to block at times and I'd like to sneak to the PS, and I think it'd be easier to sneak a guy to PS now than a week from now because there is an overload of players being cut from all teams.

And then Jones, who hasn't look great but he knows the system and is healthy. (and with Walden on the Suspension list for a week, might hold Walden spot for a week)

Well, here that is:

Rob Demovsky ‏@RobDemovsky
Source confirmed the Packers have indeed waived WR Tori Gurley.

Really surprising. I am kind of shocked that this was done so early, with no work on a trade. Makes little sense to me.

RD also reporting via Twitter Moss and Guy have been waived.

Good thread. A little surprised on Levine but Richardson has a lot of potential, so I am excited about that for sure.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
