Let's see:

The following are LOCKS:

Offense (19)
QB (2): Rodgers, Tolzien
RB (2): Lacy, Starks
FB (1): Kuhn
TE (2): Rodgers, Quarless
WR (4): Nelson, Cobb, Adams, Montgomery
OT (3): Bulaga, Bakhitiari, Barclay
OG (3): Sitton, Lang, Taylor
OC (2): Linsley, Tretter

Defense (20)
NT (2): Raji, Pennel
DE (2): Daniels, Boyd
OLB (5): Matthews, Peppers, Perry, Mulumba, Elliott
ILB (3): Barrington, Palmer, Ryan
S (3): Burnett, Clinton-Dix, Hyde
CB (5): Shields, Hayward, Randall, Rollins, Gunter

So I have 6 spots in offense and 5 spots in defense (the 3 specialists are always in)

Offense:

* It's clear we'll add a TE and maybe 2 if Quarless is suspended so I think Perillo is an almost lock and either Henry or Backman have a chance. I want to see Henry play without the club and Backman is a draft pick so he always has some extra chances.
* I only have 3 RBs, I think we'll add a 3rd RB either Crocket, Harris or Neal, I see the 3 of them very close. I don't think we'll cut Ripkowski because he is the next John Kuhn (I suposse) but he is also very stashable in the PS. I guess he is in.
* I think we'll use 5 or 6 WRs. It's either White or Janis or both.
* I'll add Rotheram or Walker to the OL staff. I might point out that Vujnovich is not playing bad and we are very thin at tackle with Bakthiari and Barclay not in top shape.

Defense:
* Either Ringo or Thornton or both will make the team. I'm not sold on Gaston yet.
* At LB I have Hubbard ahead of Vaughters at this moment and Joe Thomas is close behind.
* I need a couple more DBs. Goodson , Banjo, Richardson are in the bubble. I think Richardson is probably a lock he plays STs. Between Banjo and Goodson I think Banjo is closer.

Good job!

Some tough calls to be made in a couple of weeks.
The only real question I have with your locks is....

What about Hundley?

I don't think Ted risks Losing him through waivers.

You might have to sacrifice a lineman hoping to get him through waivers and onto The practice squad.

This is what Ted is paid to do.

Make the tough calls.

Glad it's him not me.

I believe he is in even if Blanchard outplays him a little in the next weeks. They can even control that with reps.

The QB position gets interesting if a desperate team throws in a 1st pick offer for Tolzien. Tolzien might (might!) be too good to be just Rodgers' backup and only play mop-up duty.

There is a near 0% chance Hundley gets cut. I'd say 0 but anything is possible.

If Hundley plays lights out the last 3 games the tough call will be to hold onto Scott and go with 3 QB's as Hot Rod Hundley is going nowhere.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I will say if Ripkowski keeps playing well, I think this may be Kuhn's last year in Green Bay. He didn't sign until late and it was pretty much a veterans minimum deal.

Fan Shout
beast (16h) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
Zero2Cool (17h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
Zero2Cool (18h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
dfosterf (18h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
dfosterf (18h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
Zero2Cool (18h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
Zero2Cool (18h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷
Zero2Cool (18h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before
dfosterf (18h) : Hats off to the Beast
dfosterf (18h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season
beast (19h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games
Zero2Cool (19h) : BTW, not serious.
Zero2Cool (19h) : You don't care about it either!!!!
Zero2Cool (19h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.
Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision
beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan
beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan
Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed
beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
