Maybe semantics, but are you wanting to know who was on opening day roster in 2005 vs opening day roster 2007?

Only asking because I saw one of these comparisons that said the end of season roster vs X roster was totally different, yet they omitted the injured reserve players as if they were no longer on the team as part of a roster turnover.

I don't think so because McKenzie and Sullivan were part of the same trade, so they couldn't be on the Packers roster at the same time.

I dropped a line to the editors of PFR to inquire about the specifics of the roster listings on their website. Once I know more about their methodology, I'll let you know.

With the caveat that I don't fully understand PFR's methodology, here is the list of the 21 players from the 2005 roster who were still listed on the roster in 2007. Of these, 10 were acquired by Thompson sometime in 2005, while 11 were on the 2004 roster. All but four were still on the roster in 2008.

Aaron Kampman*
Aaron Rodgers
Al Harris*
Atari Bigby
Brady Poppinga
Brett Favre*^
Bubba Franks*^
Chad Clifton*
Colin Cole*
Corey Williams*^
Cullen Jenkins
Donald Driver*
Donald Lee
Junius Coston
Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila
Mark Tauscher*
Mike Montgomery
Nick Barnett*
Nick Collins
Rob Davis*^
Scott Wells*

*On the 2004 roster.
^Not on the 2008 roster.

Incidentally, does anyone know if Torey Humphrey was on injured reserve in 2007? He's listed on the rosters for 2005, 2006, and 2008 but not 2007. Similarly, Craig Nall is listed on the roster in 2004 and 2007, but not the years in between. Did he spend those seasons on the practice squad?

Not surprised by many of those names. 13 of the 21 were starters during that time, so it seems red must have swapped out every single depth guy we had. Also how do I not remember the name Mike Montgomery if he lasted on that list?

A glance at his stat line  will probably tell you why your memory of him is a little fuzzy. 😁

wiki 

In 2006, Craig Nall signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Buffalo Bills, where he competed for the starting quarterback position until a hamstring injury suffered on the second day of practice ended his involvement in the competition. In 2007, he fell on the team's depth chart behind J. P. Losman and Trent Edwards. At the end of pre-season, he was cut from the team's final roster. Early into the regular season he was re-signed by the Bills but was released shortly thereafter.

First stint with Texans
On October 29, 2007, Nall was signed by the Houston Texans as insurance when starter Matt Schaub was hurt against San Diego. He was released by the Texans on November 21, 2007.

Second stint with Packers
He signed a one-year deal with the Packers on December 1, 2007, after they released Marviel Underwood. He became a free agent in the 2008 offseason.

For past seasons, team rosters reflect anyone who appeared in at least one game for the team at any point in the season. For current season pages, we'll show anyone on the roster at that given time plus players who've appeared in a game for the team earlier in the season.

I feel like such an idiot now. I did wonder if that is possibly what they were doing, but I never took the time to count the rosters to make sure they only listed 53 players. If every player who appeared on the roster at any point during the season is listed, then of course turnover is going to look really high. 😊

I wish I knew of a source for NFL opening-day rosters by year.
