I've done this the last couple of years for a UK based NFL site I'm active on, as I'm new here I thought I'd give it a go. Any comments are welcome.

Offense (24.5):

Quarterbacks (3): Rodgers, Flynn, Brohm
Wide receivers (5): Jennings, Driver, Jones, Nelson, Martin
Running backs (3): Grant, Jackson, Sutton
Fullbacks (2): Hall, Johnson
Tight ends (2.5): Lee, Finley, Havner
Offensive line (9): Clifton, Colledge, Spitz, Sitton, Barbre, Wells, Giacomini, Lang, Meredith

The quarterback and receiver groups take care of themselves. As for running back Sutton looks a good bet to make it over Wynn who's perpetually injured, if Jackson's injury is more serious than first thought I could see the Packers keeping 4 RBs, possibly at the expense of Underwood the corner who I have making the roster below, but my gut tells me only 3 will make it. One of the fullbacks has to miss out and it won't be 5th round pick Johnson, I'm guessing it'll be Kuhn. Havner is a two-way player at TE and LB, so he's worth keeping around, hence the half-point. As for the offensive line I hope the Packers finally cut ties with Moll and go with youth as Meredith and Lang won't make it through waivers.

Defense (25.5):

Defensive line (6): Raji, Pickett, Jenkins, Jolly, Wynn, Montgomery
Linebackers (8.5): Barnett, Hawk, Kampman, Poppinga, Thompson, Matthews, Bishop, Chillar,
Cornerbacks (6): Woodson, Harris, Williams, Blackmon, Lee, Underwood
Safeties: (5) Collins, Bigby, Smith, Rouse, Bush

I'm assuming Harrell is going to be put on injured reserve, and the rest of the D-line picks itself. Brad Jones is a tough cut at linebacker, it's probably between him and Underwood (CB) for the final roster spot (or if the Packers want to use it on offense, between Jones, Underwood and DeShawn Wynn), Jones has more chance of making it through waivers to the practice squad so I've cut him. The penalty prone Jarrett Bush gives the Packers depth at safety and corner so he stays, especially with the injuries to Lee, Blackmon, Underwood and Rouse. Obviously the Packers have the inside track on the injury situation, I wouldn't be surprised to see any of those four put on IR.

Special teams (3):

Kicker: Crosby
Punter: Kapinos
Long-snapper: Goode

I like the list masseyattack ... my latest list is a lot likes yours... I did two things differently....

I cut Havner and kept Kuhn. Yes Havner add STs but so does Kuhn so I say they're even on that put. Havner can play TE and LB but IMO not to well and I don't think Kuhn plays FB too well.... the difference for me is that Kuhn can be a FB or power RB in the red zone and he gives something that no one else can (other than FB Johnson but Johnson is very raw and I don't think is ready for game time yet)... but Kuhn adds something no one else (that's ready) can. Havner doesn't really add anything that Finley and Lee can't and Hall can also be a 3rd TE (though not to well but Havner isn't too well ether). Now that being said I realize that this probably won't happen but I see it as the best choice IMO.

The other move I did was I IRed Rouse and kept OLB Jones. Rouse even when on the field hasn't played well enough to earn a spot in my opinion and he's injured so why not IR him?

On my list I kept CB Lee and cut Lansanah... but I could also seeing Lee IRed and keeping Lansanah on the active 53 man roster.

But good list IMO masseyattack

Nice list ...

my thoughts -

I have a feeling there will be a difference between what I want and what will happen.

- ie I want all 3 FBs to have a job; have a feeling well trade one or cut one
- I didnt like underwoods play; have a feeling he could be on our team
- Id like to get rid of rouse and peprah
- I like wynn over sutton ...
- Rather keep 3 FBs instead of havner; not that hes bad but like our FBs more

Thought the rumors were that Wells will be traded to Seahawks? And Underwood is injury prone why keep him?
