Goodson is coming off an ACL injury and might not compete in training camp, which I think helps other case, as if it was just STs, then Goodson might have it wrapped up.



I thought Mays would go undrafted because his Senior year was horrible due to injuries. That could be a possible reason he wasn't drafted until the 7th.

With that last comment, are you assuming RB Jones is a lock over RB Mays? Personally I think they could battle the 3rd RB and my way too early 53 roster prediction, I had 1 FB and 3 RBs, with the 4th RB going to the PS. (that was because I had the Packers also keeping 3 QBs, 7 WRs and 9 OL).




Amichia played Center as a freshman in college and at the NFL they announced his selection as a Center... so I think Amichia is the Packers future back-up Center (at worse), as Taylor, Linsley, Evans and Barcaly are all in contract years. But now they don't have to resign two Centers come FA time.

I had Patrick over Kofi in my prediction, but that was because Patrick looked pretty good last training camp even with a club on his broken hand... fully healthy and a full offseason, and he should look even better.



Gilbert and Calvin are both bigger OLBers and competing for the 6th OLB spot.



Dupre would of been on my list too if not for WR Davis.

Lowry was an honorary part of my group as the DL as a whole. Also Adams, to a degree, but it seems as if a lot of DTs struggle as rookies, which I've heard some explain as it takes them longer to adjust to the NFL quickness and power of the inside of NFL OL.

DL Price is an interesting selection, but the Packers normally only keep 5 or 6 DL, and with Daniels, Clark, Lowry, Jean-Francois, Adams... 5 spots seem to be locked up. And if they keep a 6th spot, then there is Ringo, Price, Lunsford and MAYBE... MAYBE... Guion for that 6th spot.

I didn't think about Allison for this list, but that's because I've heard a lot of people assuming that he's a lock for the 4th WR spot, and so from what I'm personally hearing, he's not under the radar. But if he's not on others radar then that's a great selection.

1. Yes Goodson is coming off ACL it kinda slipped my mind. I was thinking this is his last chance once again. But he was done so well on ST. PUP for him then who knows.

2. Mays did have a poor Sr yr. It's hard to define "Under the radar". If people are excited about him and think he will be able to step up is that really "under the radar" or not? Idunno. Depends on how you want to look at it. If he had been a UDFA that would have made him more under the radar to me than what he is. As you observed with Allison, I change my definition a little bit. As for Jones being a lock, I don't think he's a lock. I think he is ahead of Mays. Without putting on pads and running any plays my guess is his chances are 60-40 at worst, 70-30 at best. I hope they only keep 1 FB but I have his nagging feeling they will keep Kerridge too. If he sticks Mays or Jones is out. If he doesn't make it both Mays and Jones might. Or as you observed they may use that spot for for Callahan. If they were to keep only 6 WRs that would make it easier to keep an extra RB but there again I think Ted and Mike will go for the extra WR ad have him inactive so they don't risk losing him off he PS.

3. It's looking like Amichia very well may make the team even without practicing in pads so like so may others is he under the radar? Perhaps.

4 & 5. I think Davis as a lock. Or at least 80%. But i liked our pick because under the radar can mean players who need to make that next step. I don't see Allison as the #4. I think it is Davis. Allison is 5th or 6th. Thus he's on my list.

6 & 7. I know Lowry is a part of your HM-DL group and I have no issue with that. Once again I have him here because he needs to take that next step. I think he could, given enough snaps. With people looking at Clark to get more time on the field and Adams as a possible wunderkind, Jean-Francois' ability to play in multiple positions, that is, potentially, squeezing Lowry. I don't think people are looking to Lowry to take a larger role this year.
Price would also fall into your HM list. With so much attention to the others in the group he may not make it this year. He as one of the guys I thought could make it to the first 53 cut down last year and he didn't. He may well not make it this year either. I don't see GB keeping Guion after his 4 game susp.

One of the hardest parts of all this is- unless there are injuries, unless there are players falling on their faces and failing miserably to do what is expected of them, there are so few slots available for under the radar candidates. Kerriage for example can play his butt off and excel beyond anyone's imagination. he best he can hope for is #2 QB. Same for many other positions. The starters will be the starters we can name 99% of them right now. Most of the backups are also set. At the most, 2 or 3 UDFAs will make it as walk-ons. 3 being only due to injuries somewhere.

The good news is we are another day closer to finding out.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty
wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
