Ted has never had issues cutting late rounders. It's a number game and when you have a bunch of draft picks later rounders will often get cut. One might argue the early rounders...1-3 should get a few years even if hey are outplayed. Agree with it or not, that is a value argument you agree or disagree with.
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Why draft two WR's if you're going to turn around and cut them?
Assuming TT thought they were BPA with a good shot at making the team. I think both end up on the practice squad.
TT can't cut Janis due to his Special Team play. Neither of these WR's excelled there. And Davis might offer something on ST too.

HOFer
we were already deep at WR, it was a waste of two picks IMO
just like spending 3 picks on running backs
this is were going BPA really fucks the team in the ass
I'm not defending TT: I agree with you.
But I'd guess that's what he was thinking
Surprised one of the tree was not kept over some of those guys

The injury really screwed Dupree but you are right he should have went after OL or OLB with those picks.
So to summarize:
Somebody has to go when they sign Brooks. I would think either Pipkens or McCray.QB (2): Aaron Rodgers, Brett Hundley
RB (4): Ty Montgomery, Jamaal Williams, Aaron Jones, Devante Mays
FB (1): Aaron Ripkowski
WR (5): Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams, Randall Cobb, Jeff Janis, Trevor Davis
*Geronimo Allison must serve a one-game suspension
TE (3): Martellus Bennett, Lance Kendricks, Richard Rodgers
OL (10): Corey Linsley, Lane Taylor, Jahri Evans, David Bakhtiari, Bryan Bulaga, Don Barclay, Kyle Murphy, Jason Spriggs, Lucas Patrick, Justin McCray
DL (6): Mike Daniels, Dean Lowry, Kenny Clark, Ricky Jean Francois, Christian Ringo, Montravius Adams
LB (7): Clay Matthews, Nick Perry, Jake Ryan, Blake Martinez, Joe Thomas, Kyler Fackrell, Jayrone Elliott
*Vince Biegel to physically-unable-to-perform (PUP) list
CB (7): Davon House, Damarius Randall, Quentin Rollins, Kevin King, Josh Hawkins, LaDarius Gunter, Lenzy Pipkins
S (5): Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix, Morgan Burnett, Josh Jones, Kentrell Brice, Marwin Evans
ST (3): Mason Crosby, Justin Vogel, Brett Goode

Who gets drops with Allison comes back? Mays?
I think Pipkens or Patrick/McCray.

Adam's to IR
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
I suspect we'll put M. Adams on IR-designated to return and then add Brooks.
A player has to start the season on the active roster to be eligible to return from IR. Packers only have 4 OLB's right now, so they'll probably want Brooks active Week 1.

That might be where Adams goes (IR-DTR) so it has to be CB or OL.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Draft picks go in certain rounds because they meet certain criteria. Personnel guys don't forget that until you put up a large amount of film.
Fackrell might very well end up on an active roster if someone else rated him as highly as the Packer. And before you claim this is impossible, remember every other time you have made this claim and we got details later, you were wrong.
Gilbert was cut before Fackrell because they figure they can get him to the PS. I suspect they hope neither has to see the field on Defense right now. Gilbert looked good at times against backups and 3rd stringers, but he never made a move to get starting snaps.
And after the PS additions, Ted will change the roster again during Week 1. It never stays the same as on cutdown day.

I am happy to see a new Punter in Justin Vogel.
I'm surprised that Brett Hundley was kept; but he could be TT Trade bait !? I'm not impressed with his passing style and Hill grew in TC.
LaDarius Gunter must be wearing 'Sticky'. Please TT, find any decent CB to replace him !

I'm curious to see Gunter play the slot. His speed is less of a liability when there is a safety behind him. His instincts and savvy are more on display inside. Again, I'm interested to see him play in there. If he flops at that, yeah, wtf is going on? Why is he here? But I want to see first.I am happy to see a new Punter in Justin Vogel.

I like it, hope they bring in another OL though.
Hope they sign Ahtyba Rubin from Seattle after they got Richardson and place Adams on IR.
I think Dupre in the 7th round was too good to pass up. I was never crazy about the Yancey pick .
