Count as me as someone who will miss Tramon and his leadership in the DB room. Who takes his place I wonder?

He never really came back after that pinched nerve vs. the Saints in the season opener a few years ago. His money would be very helpful to extending Cobb and or Nelson. We'll have to see how that plays out in TC and pre-season. Hopefully, one of our young bucks plays really well. Hayward lacks the great speed but he's so instinctive and smart it would interesting to see if he could play on the outside. Hyde is also a possibility out there. I have my eye on Nixon and I guess the new guy, Goodson.

I definitely will think more about this once mini camps are done. With the influx of all this drafted and undrafted players it is insanity right now. Maybe we find some gems in there. That is where my focus is as a fan right now. I just want our backups to show better this pre-season. Last year I just wasn't feeling it which was why I skipped my usual yearly trip to green bay.

We've added some players. Somebody from last season won't make it.

I see Raji, Worthy, Brad Jones and Nate Palmer as having the toughest times hanging on. Maybe even Mulumba.

What do you think?

Am I wrong to include Raji?

I hope Bush finally sees the axe.

I also see MD Jennings and McMillan out.

I don't see any really difficult cuts to make and that means our depth is not very good.
I'm totally energized by having Julius in the team we don't have depth but we do have talent so we need a lucky break from injuries.

I've read more than one person say they think Worthy is in danger of being cut? Why? He's barely had an opportunity after ripping up his knee. He will get a long long look before we move on from him. Not many 2nd rounders are just jettisoned especially due to injury so early in their careers. Give Jerel a chance...he was non descript his rookie year but that position takes time.

Agreed. Unless he's just absolutely stinking up the joint in preseason and TC he's not going anywhere. Another thing to remember is he got injured late in the season and this year will be his first time he gets offseason training from the staff.

I see Boykin, White and possibly Dorsey being gone on offense. Ryan Taylor, maybe Stoneburner if he doesn't show he can play.

On D, I'd like to see House take a step forward. He played tough last year, but also gave up some plays. He's got good size, but he's a little stiff. Chris Banjo and Sean Richardson could go too. I expect Hyde to back up S and then a Ted Thompson gem to backup the 4th S spot.

Dline will be competitive. It's not looking like Pickett or Jolly will be back. I still like Worthy. He needs to make the team, but he gets the benefit of the doubt at least this year. Probably next year too, because the knee will need a year (as they say) before it's "right" again.

Palmer could be moved inside. That's probably his best shot to make the team, imo.

I'm as much against Raji as anybody, and I don't expect to see him cut. They've seen him at his worst and still re-signed him. I actually hold out hope for a slight improvement if he is asked to do more than occupy space.

I wish Brad Jones would be cut, but I really don't expect that either. I think Bradford moves inside and takes his spot, but he hangs on another season.

I also think Tramon stays - he still is more than decent when healthy.

D-Line: Pickett (if he's not considered gone already), Guion, and maybe Jolly go.

LB: Palmer and maybe Lattimore

DB: Richardson and probably Banjo replaced by rookies

O-Line: Gerhart

TE: Finley (if he even counts), maybe Stoneburner, maybe even Bostick. I did NOT exoect a TE to be drafted, but since they did, Rodgers could steal the spot of one of those two.

WR: White, Dorsey, Harper, several others I can't even think of the name. I figured at least one of those would make the team and no WR would be drafted. Ted obviously saw that differently.

QB: I'm thinking Tolzien clearly emerges, and Flynn is let go.

Also, supposedly Linsley can long snap. I'd like to see him do good enough to replace Goode and free up a roster spot.
