Previlon and Lovett are elevated just for the game (unless they're signed to the 53 man roster).

So St. Brown's spot is currently unfilled (though if they keep elevating Lovett up, they might just call him upto the 53, as they can only protect them from waivers for so many waivers).

Also if reports are true and Lane Taylor's season is over, why hasn't he been placed on the IR as well?

So basically two spots open on the 53 man roster, wonder who'll they sign to fill them.

Of course ILB Martin could fill one, after missing two more more games and returning from IR.

I had high hopes for ESB this year but it doesn't look like he's going to pan out.
Perhaps it's time to come to an injury settlement with him and move on.
What has he done for us lately?
The short answer is:
nothing!

Lane Taylor hasn't been put on IR yet has he?

And because of the ability to elevate players from the PS to the 53 giving aid, I wouldn't be totally shocked if they just held onto Taylor until week 4 or 5, this is assuming ILB Martin surely will be healthy and available to return at the time.

But how will they fill St. Brown's spot? I'm thinking veteran OL, veteran DL or TE Lovett call up from the practice squad as they have elevated him twice.

We get Raven Greene back today baby!!! Lions gonna get pounded into kitty snarf!

There is a 53 permanent main roster, with 2 additional call up spots from the PS per week that must go back to the PS after the game.

They get some many free passes where they don't have to go through waivers when returning to PS, but once those are up, they must go through waivers. I'm not sure the number of free passes there are, I thought it was four, but I'm not sure that's correct now.

If you have at least 8 OL active, there are 48 gameday roster spots, if less than 8 OL then 47 gameday roster spots active (which I still think some coach might label a blocking TE as an OL to get around that someday).

Hope Linsley and Adams are ok.

This is pure speculation, but I'm thinking he might be healthy in 3 weeks, as they sorta rushed to put him on the IR (which suggest they wanted to make sure he was on the IR before this game, so he can get back ASAP)... where like Lane Taylor, they're in no rush, because reportedly his season is done, so they have no need to rush moving him to the IR until they're ready to sign someone to the dotted line to join the 53 man roster.

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
