Examining the Green Bay Packers' roster:

QUARTERBACKS (3)

Aaron Rodgers
Matt Flynn
Scott Tolzien

This might be the hardest call of them all, whether to keep both Flynn and Tolzien. And if the answer is no, then which to keep? Flynn is a proven winner as a backup, although he lacks some of Tolzien's physical attributes. There's just something about the Flynn-Packers marriage that seems to work, but Tolzien is making it a tough call. This one is going right down to the end.

This projection comes very very close to what I would do - an excellent job for a media type - usually only Packer posters come that close to nailing it.

I say: Add Adrian Hubbard and delete Nate Palmer; Add Stoneburner and delete either Flynn or Banjo.

Other than that, stamp of approval.

Packers have been down right killed in the past because of injuries lead to lack of a rotation on the DL and the DL got wore down and by the end of the game the other team just had their way with the winded DL. Need to keep a rotation... and at their weights Peppers and Neal aren't full time inside linemen...


I like Stoneburner and he has a very good knack for finding the soft spots in zone defense which the Packers have used in the past with Bubba Franks, Spencer Havner and maybe some others to be red zone specialist. And I believe Quarless and Bostick have struggled at times in the red zone so it might be the perfect role for Stoneburner. Though I think Banjo could be a ST stud... though I'm find with going with only 2 QBs.

Pretty good list by Demovsky, but I dump Tolzien to carry another defensive lineman. I'd also want to dump a tight end, but McCarthy loves these guys for special teams and versatility so I guess we'll keep 4 when 3 would suffice. Most of the backup linebackers really don't do much for me except for Barrington a real thumper and Jayrone - who looks like he just may have the goods to make Perry expendable.

I honestly think if you put another OLB (not named Bradford) on those same OTs they would of won as well and Hubbard even proved that against the Saints OT beating him easily as well when he got his shot.

Perry ain't going anywhere this year. How has Elliot looked in special teams? You have to be able to execute there to make the 53 this year with the numbers we have at the OLB position.

Seems like they cut some of the borderline cases earlier than some of the obvious cuts. I wonder if that is to give the guys a better chance to sign with some other teams or what. It seems like it worsens our chances of retaining players like Rolle and Perillo and Neal on the practice squad.

Then sign Hill or Perkins to the practice squad and they should be set at RB.
