Will Bakhtiari lose his job?

On the Packers.com website they have JC Tretter listed as the backup LT.

David Bakhtiari is 6'4" and 310 lbs with 34 inch arms

JC Tretter is 6'4" and 307 lbs with 33 3/8 inch arms

ProFootballFocus has Bakhtiari ranked 38th Tackle and credits him with 5 penalties, 5 sacks, 2 hits and 6 hurries of the QB.

For comparison sake, Bryan Bulaga is ranked 32nd with a penalty, 3 sacks, 1 hit and 11 hurries of the QB.

The Depth Chart on the Packers site is far from official. That being said, they released their backup Tackle in favor of Tretter. I wouldn't mind seeing what Tretter can do at LT.

I don't like Bakhtiari, but I see no indication that the Packers are about to dump him. I had hopes previously that Sherrod would replace him, but that ship has now sailed away big time. Tretter might have a chance to unseat Bakhtiari by next season, but now? No Chance.

The draft or free agency (yeah, fat chance of that happening) are the only real hope of upgrading things.

For comparison sake, Bryan Bulaga is ranked 32nd with half a penalty, 3 sacks, 1 hit and 11 hurries of the QB.

If our two tackles are ranked 32 and 38 among tackles, IMO NEITHER should be safe in their starting position at the end of the year.

-Bakhtiari is ranked 38th overall at T but 14th overall for pass pro. Meanwhile Bulaga is way down at 46th for pass pro. Seems to me the problem is the same problem they've had in the past: They have two RTs but have to play one of them at LT and it shows.
-Bakhtiari is ranked higher at pass pro than Giants 2013 first rounder Justin Pugh who's playing RT. Not even seeing 2013 #1 overall pick Eric Fisher on the same list
-According to PFF, we have fantastic interior run blocking...yet we always go with deep pitches to the outside behind our Ts
-The Packers will weigh pass pro over run blocking if I had to guess

Bulaga has been hampered with knee injuries. Bakhtiari needs to get better at run blocking. We'll see how he develops.
