Janis is still a good returner and a very good gunner. Even if he doesn't improve much as a WR he's still probably got a spot locked up because of ST.

IMO the only locks are Nelson, Cobb, and Montgomery if his injury heals and even then he will make the team and be placed on IR.

This isn't hyperbolic by any means. Jeff Janis was huge on Special Teams last season, I mean huge. That there will have him locked on the 53 alone. If anyone questions that, think Jarrett Bush, lol.

Let's not forget there are now 2 spots available on the PS for veteran players.
Not exactly sure who qualifies, but am almost certain Abbey would.
They will find a way to keep all 7 to start the season if needed.
The Packer roster will only be stronger if that happens.
Another team will get a very good player if one of the 7 is released.

If Abby is cut he will land on another team's 53.

Cutting him is not TeddyT's style. He will keep him for the full contract and if he doesn't show signs of improvement, not offer him an 2nd one. (perhaps the toe-sprain will play into how they can justify keeping him. They certainly have enough cap space.)

But if he really struggles this offseason and the other receivers look good, there's precedent for Ted to ship him out.

I didn't say Ted has never cut a 2nd round pick. I said it's not his style. He has carried more than 2 players through out the full term of their contract.

He was always on IR so hardly got a chance to show what he could do but maybe him. Brandon Jackson? We were thin at running back to the point he was getting significant snaps.

The overwhelming majority of his second round draft picks have been productive players, a good number have been pro bowlers even. The second round players Ted Thompson has kept have largely been worth keeping.

dfosterf (22h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (22h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???
Zero2Cool (22h) : Ugh... kids these days!

dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
