He did have a good tryout...

Good prediction. I would disagree only on a few:

Offensive side:
1. Green is cut. Ted Thompson goes with 4 RBs plus Kuhn. Adds Jeremy Ross as WR #6, PR#2, KR. (Ross or Walker are cut before end of season, though)
2. Tretter ends up on IR, position is replaced by someone Ted finds in final cuts or in trade (see below).
3. D J Williams is cut, replaced by Ryan Taylor.

Defensive side:
4. Lattimore and Palmer are both cut. Francois and Manning take their places.
5. Shocker of the year: B J Raji is traded to a team expected to draft in the top 10, for their first and third next year and 2015's 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. (This reverse Lawrence Welk trade may also involve one of the other team's OL.) Place is taken on Packer roster by Jordan Miller.

While Francois might have the least althetic of the back-up ILBs, looks like he's been playing as the top back-up in if either need a breather and big plays on ST coverage. I think he makes it.

I don't think moving Hyde away from CB (yet).

But I've thought about maybe putting Bush at S... but the Banjo kid has also been getting better and might make it.

Also I think Barrington makes it... I thought he was working with #1 STs a good bit.


As my mock guess have shown, I want more of the defensive players to stay but the Packers are probably be more balence like this one is.

I say cut a OL or TE and keep Banjo as well.

I think one of the other ILBers and one OLB willl be cut and Francois and Barrinton will be kept.

Brandon Smith had one of those games v. STL like House did v. AZ. Everything went wrong. He made some nice plays v. SEA and apparently made an awesome play on Cobb in the EZ today to break up a TD. You can see he knows how to play the ball in space, with some good timing to disrupt plays in defending the pass. You see the natural talent the kid has when he plays, just going to take some time to gain experience playing DB in the NFL. I'm pretty sure he is a converted WR.

Yup he is. Seems like the better players are usually the converted recievers.. Mostly because of ball skills. Even though they might of been bad it helps them at CB.

Shields was the same way. Now he's one of the best on our team.

Hmmm. You might be needing to update your prediction, if DuJuan did seek a second opinion on his knee... 🤦

I think Starks makes the roster before Harris. Just a hunch.

---

Just a hunch huh?

Too bad for Harris, injuries are a bitch.

---

I don't really see Walker making the team. He's made a couple plays in preseason but hasn't really done anything special and Ross seems to be ahead of him because of special teams (and he gets pulled when the starters/2nd teamers get pulled while Walker keeps playing). I doubt they keep 6 WR and even if they do I think they would give the last spot to someone with more potential like Johnson since that player won't even be active to contribute on game days anyway.
