I kept R. Rodgers, Thomas and Elliot due to numbers they normally keep at their positions and I don't see a strong challenge to be had...

- R. Rodgers - I never said Ted Thompson was satisfied. I think the Packers will be keeping at least 3 TEs, and I think R. Rodgers is a lock to be within the top 3 TEs on the Packers rosters. I don't see Sandland or Peck beating out Rodgers.

Fair enough.  His familiarity with Aaron Rodgers and the game plan gives him the edge over any other TE3.  I've heard good things about Sandland which should make it interesting.


- Thomas - The involvement of the Safeties at ILB is most likely going to take the 4th ILB spot... but Thomas seemed to be clearly in the top 3 ILB last year... of course maybe I'm over rating Thomas and underrating someone like Jordan Tripp, Cody Heiman, or David Talley. So I'll take Thomas off the locked list, and put him on my inside bubble list.

- Elliot - At OLBers they normally keep 6. Matthews, Perry, Fackrell and Biegel take up four spots, leaving two spots open... and Elliot is also a ST stud so clearly he's got the tie breaker... what two other OLBers could clearly beat him out? I don't see it, so I believe a healthy Elliot is a clearly a lock.

- Edited: Safety Evans, I also need to take him off the locked list, because while I think it's a good chance they keep 5 Safeties (with 3 ILBers)... that's not a lock, and he's not a lock if another UDFA like Brice comes around. There is also Jermaine Whitehead (if he can play ST correctly) and I've heard that rookies Aaron Taylor's change of direction and quickness stood out in shorts.


Elliot will probably make it just because of a numbers game.  Don't think he's a lock though, anymore than Janis or Allison in that regard.

My biggest shocker, only two RBs? The Packers made that mistake last year... and with injuries two RBs went to none. RBs get injured a lot... and they drafted 3... I think at least two will stick. Also they might not be a sure thing to make it to the PS.

I think Jordan Tripp is an ILB in the Packers system... he's about 15 pounds lighter than all the other OLBers (since Fackrell has gained weight), and he's right in line with the ILBers.

I chose Kerridge over 1 of the 7th round picks because he performed well on ST's last year.

Don't forget Randall Cobb.
Mike's package with him being a rb hasn't been thrown out .
I see Ripkowski getting more touches this season.
Stash 2 rb's on the PS and have them ready to go.

Some people are saying there is a ton of competition at WR, and while that may true for the last 2 spots, it does not mean anyone but the top 3 will matter. The way I see it, we are thinner at WR than we have been in years (not accounting for injury). Aside from our top 3 we don't have shit. And 1 of those 3 is getting old while another is on the verge of being a cap casualty if he doesn't get his game right soon. If we don't reload ASAP we may be really hurting at WR a year or 2 from now. We have to extend Adams ASAp or we're super screwed. It's a good thing we signed those Tight Ends.

I expect 6 of the 8 will still be there after the Practice Squad is created.
2 years from now there will probably at least 2 new draft picks.
Not sure what you expect.
Janis has probably hit his peak, someone beats him out at gunner, he will be gone.
We still have no clue how good the rest can be.
Davis and Allison flashed last year, the rest will all be competing to show they belong.

Reloading at WR is all Ted has been doing.

If there is one position I'll never doubt Ted on its WR, he knows how to pick them.

Then add in the injury factor for all the teams, GB will keep 3 on the 53. That's the only sure way to protect them from being stolen.

Here's something else we have not had a chance to factor in- With so many QBs coming out in the draft next year, the odds of trading Hundley for any significant draft pick has dropped to almost zero. Unless it's a dire emergency like a TC injury no one will want to give up a draft pick when they can get a QB without doing so. There is no guarantee that Hundley will be good enough to start for anyone this year. Last year MN didn't make the playoffs after they acquired Bradford.

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 (17h) : 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
