For the most part I like it, but I'm not sure they're going to be quick about getting rid of STers TE Taylor and ILB/S Carpenter, especially since you need some bigger sized guys on STs too.
TE Taylor lead the Packers in ST snaps last year, playing 80% of the ST snaps, being only one of four players to go over 47%. Plus they only have 23 on offense, that's seems to low, usually it's at least 24 for both O and D.
Safety normally has 4 or 5... 6 seems a bit too heavy, especially since all of them (except Johnson) are in contract years. Carpenter whom is a LB/S tweener, can fill in ST duties of whomever is last on the depth chart (though Leavitt was #2 in ST snaps for the Packers last year). I don't love going with 5 ILBers, especially when only two usually see the field, but Packers have been doing it for STs the last 3 years or so.
And I think they release another S, CB or OL to get TE Taylor in there. Number wise, I also want to add OLB in there, but the Cox kid sounds really talented (when not pissing coaches and getting kicked out of SEC programs)... and Hollins is a good veteran depth guy.
