That D line does not insipire a lot of hope....

Like I noticed today the RB Neal, ILB Thomas and OL Tiller were sent to IR during the 75 man cut downs... but on Packers.com I don't see them listed on the IR on the updated roster...

Maybe a mistake on Packers.com's part? Or maybe they got injury settlements and released like TE Lyerla?

I think we are very thin in the OL. If something happens to Linsley we have to put Sitton at Center and isert Taylor at G.

And if something happens to Bulaga or Bakteria our options are to give up or put Sherrod (in that specific order)

Just to follow up on this, even though those players are not listed on the roster if you click on the transaction link they are all still listed there as being placed on IR. No furthur mention of any injury settlement.

One thing with OL though is it's a thin group leaguewide. Especially at the T position, there just aren't really any good back ups. I think we are still in a good position depth wise compared to a lot of teams. We've lost a starter and our top swing back up so far so you have to expect some depth issues but I think we are still pretty good overall considering those circumstances.

We've still got a G back up who has always looked competent when he's gotten his chances. Sherrod is still unknown but he got more criticism for mistakes he made in preseason than normal just because of his draft position. He gave up a couple sacks/pressure throughout the preseason but that was just 4 or 5 plays or whatever, on the other 200 plays he was solid.
