We've added some players. Somebody from last season won't make it.

I see Raji, Worthy, Brad Jones and Nate Palmer as having the toughest times hanging on. Maybe even Mulumba.

What do you think?

Am I wrong to include Raji?

I also don't see Jones being cut. He's far from being as bad as everyone seems to claim here. Next to that, they gave Bradford an OLB number and they haven't announced a position switch. While I asumed they'd make him an ILB, because he has all the tools and it is a position of need - somewhat -, it seems he's playing OLB for as far as I know at the moment.

In that case, I don't see who beats him out. There's only Lattimore and special teamers behind him.

I see Guion, Worthy, Palmer, Mulumba and one of Lattimore/Barrington as the most at risk. Mulumba only if he fails to make a decent 2nd year jump.

It's a weird thing. I like Raji and I understand the concepts of a space eating NT in a 3-4. I've thought he's been misused since the 2010 season. He was a last second inclusion on that list.

Thompson does not part with 1st round picks without a lot of chances at redemption, which I think is smart. But, I wonder if this staff and a changing emphasis in our D won't make him expendable with all the youth that was recently drafted and signed.

I'm a Raji fan, and I hope he can recapture some of his 2010 season magic.

I totally disagree on Brad Jones. He has few instincts for the LB position. Inside or outside. He is a 4-3 edge rusher, and completely out of position in GB. That's my view anyway.

We're not going to have to cut too many from the front 7. We carried 17 guys on our front 7 after final cutdown last year. 8 DL and 9 LB.

After waiving Chase Thomas, today, we have 19 spots allocated to the front 7. 8 DL and 11 LB. (counting Neal as DE and Peppers as LB)

So, if we keep the same number only 2 guys need to go... one likely from DL and one from LB. This isn't counting any UDFA's who may crash the party and cause more cuts. Could keep all DL and waive 2 LB's.

Guion is likely on DL... Palmer from LB.

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."

Palmer doesn't have much of a chance in my opinion. Perhaps a candidate to move inside. I have been thinking about this season carrying more LBs and cross training them to move them around. I know the coaches are cooking up something. I just don't know what it is.

Palmer was Kevin Greene's guy... He lobbied hard for us to draft him. He's showed little and Greene is gone so Palmer better explode or he's done.

We don't mind cutting guys we added in FA like Anthony Hargrove from the Saints. Guion isn't one of ours so he's likely to be the DL unless he's terrific and someone else is brutal.
Ted Thompson would LOVE to get rid of Raji's 4 million. 500k in signing bonus...so we'd take that as a hit if we let him go. I could see it happening if he's as brutal as he was last year. Why keep him and waste 3.5 million if you can get similar from Boyd/Thornton/Guion? Hopefully 2 of those guys show they can handle nose. I'd rather cut BJ for the $. Guion would cost nearly 300k to ditch. So, only about 200k between letting him go vs. Raji, but Guion only costs us a little over a mil. BJ better show he's as or more effective than Guion or he'll be the guy on the street.

Hawk is getting closer to being able to move on from financially speaking...he should squeeze one more year out of us, but I'll bet this is his last in Green Bay.

OT: If we can get a young CB to show something, Tramon is finished this year. We're going to eat 9.5 million of our cap on him? I can't wait to move on from him. I'll eat the 2 million and gladly move on.

Count as me as someone who will miss Tramon and his leadership in the DB room. Who takes his place I wonder?

I cannot see Tramon leaving this season. No way. But, this is just front 7... Maybe it shouldn't be...

I changed the thread title. Who from 2013 roster do you not see making this Packers team?
