If you follow training camp, you will hear he is one of the more aggressive defenders in camp. Got into a couple fights, I think he even laid a guy out in camp and got an earful from McCarthy. I like that.

I think he'll make the team. If he has speed, and can tackle, he's got a pretty good shot. Forget about being an amazing coverer, I'm pretty sure his other ability's can cancel out that, and that raw ability will improve as the year progresses.

So at ILB we got:

Hawk, Jones, Francois, Lattimore & Manning

Then Barrington as our newbie.

Lets assume we keep 8 LBs in total as a 3-4 defensive team. Who goes to make room for Barrington? I think Francois is an odd man out. Who else?

I still think 8 is a low number for lbr's.

9-10 has been the norm since going to the 3-4.

I hate to bring it up, but with the Packers injury history lately at lbr's, He may end up starting!!!!

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Yeah, buckeye, I kind of figured. We do have a lot of bodies there.

I'm thinking we go with 9 or 10 LBs too. Probably these 10:
Perry, Hawk, Jones, Matthews
Barrington, Manning, Palmer, Malumba, Moses.

The odd man out if they keep 9 is a battle between Palmer, Manning and Malumba. That's what I am thinking anyway. Seems Francois and Lattimore fell into much the same category as Walden: we have to do better.

If they keep 10, it will probably mean one less TE to maintain a similar size/athleticism on STs. I'm hoping the competition is truly open for starting positions, as I would prefer we have a better player starting at Jones' spot. I think it is crucial that we have better performance there. I think Perry, Hawk and Matthews have firm holds on their starting spots.

Hawk's conditioning coming in this year is pretty impressive. He looks good, and I hope he has a year much like 2010.

Again, this unit's success will be pretty dependent on sound DL play, which would be an improvement over last year.

You're right. Forgot about him. He has looked good, and is probably battling with all of Barrington, Palmer, Manning, Malumba, Moses. Savage. Thanks bro! He has looked good.

These are the guys I keep for my LBs

I'll keep it Even 5 MLBs 5 OLBs

MLB:
Hawk
Jones
Francois
Manning
Barrington

OLB:
Matthews
Perry
Moses
Palmer
Mulumba

PS:
Savage

Lattimore will be fighting with Manning, Barrington for a roster spot. I think we keep Francois, cause he's a good Special Teamer plus a serviceable backup.

If we keep ten then I think I completely agree with your post GCB.

I forgot to mention that Lattimore is my current dark horse though. His name gets brought up a lot at practice, but in game, I have yet to see it translate.

Zero2Cool (2h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (2h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (2h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (2h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (2h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (2h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (2h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (3h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (3h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (3h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (3h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (3h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

beast (3h) : Packers will get in

beast (3h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (3h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (3h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (5h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (6h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (7h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (16h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (17h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Or ties, but let's be real here

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (20h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?
