In my defense, the top three CB group is good enough that some of those people should count as two people.

This is pretty much how mine would look. If they go back to the old rules were you need 6 years to be a free agent I would have some changes. I would replace Swain with JJ, Taylor (H-back) with BJac, and Battles with Colledge. Taylor goes to the practice squad instead.

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

Man if we go back to the old rules this year we should have a deep offense. Adding JJ, Bjac, and Colledge to that would be scary.

Lurk and MD there are 56 guys on your 53-man roster.

When I last fixed it, there were 54. I just cut Taylor.

Here's a stab at it.

QB: Rodgers, Flynn, Harrell
RB: Grant, Starks, Green
FB: Kuhn, Hall
TE: Finley, Williams, Crabtree, Taylor
WR: Jennings, Driver, Cobb, Nelson, Swain
OT: Clifton, Bulaga, Sherrod, Newhouse
OG: Lang, Sitton, McDonald
C: Wells, EDS
ST: Crosby, Masthay, Goode
DE: Pickett, Jenkins, Neal, Green, Wilson
NT: Raji
OLB: Matthews, Elmore, Zombo, Walden
ILB: Hawk, Bishop, Jones, Smith, Wilhelm
CB: Williams, Woodson, Shields, Lee, House
S: Collins, Burnett, Peprah, Bush

Man they've got to get training camp going, so the fun can begin.
This is pretty close to what I'd be thinking. Except, we haven't kept three QBs to start the season for awhile and I think Harrell is till PS eligible.
We should go back to two FBs. I think Johnson is finally going to beat out Hall, but that's a crapshoot.
There's no way both Crabtree and Taylor will beat out Quarless barring injury or hooker binge.
Cobb will make it and Jones will probably leave unless 2010 FA rules apply. I think Swain will lose his spot because they won't want to go with a receiver corps that's that small. They'll keep someone with more size as the fifth.
They're no going to pay Jenkins nine million a year that's going to have to be saved for CMIII. I think Jarius Wynn will beat out Guy.
Anyone who can predict what will happen at Linebacker should be working on their investment portfolio instead of wasting their time being the Nostradamus of the NFL, but here goes.
Brad Jones beats out Ricky Elmore at OLB. They love Chillar and his long hair, he stays.
That dime spot and fourth safety are going to be super competitive they might keep 10 DBs, but I'm guessing 10 LBs because of special teams.
Oh and lastly, McDonald takes over for EDS as backup center and Caleb "Brush Yo" Schlauderaff is the third guard, just so I can get dibs on the nickname.

QB: Rodgers, Flynn
RB: Grant, Starks, Green
FB: Kuhn, Johnson
TE: Finley, Quarless, Williams, Taylor
WR: Jennings, Driver, Nelson, Cobb, Chaistin West
OT: CLifton, Bulaga, Sherrod, Newhouse
OG: Sitton, Lang, Schlauderaff
C: Wells, MacDonald
ST: Crosby, Masthay, Goode
DE: Pickett, Neal, Green, Wilson, Wynn
NT: Raji
OLB: Matthews, Zombo, Walden, Jones, DJ Smith
ILB: Hawk, Bishop, Chillar, Wilhelm, Briggs
CB: Woodson, Williams, Shields, Lee, House
S: Collins, Burnett, Peprah, Bush

Of course ultimately doing this now is futile, since assuming there is an opportunity to sign college free agents, TT will sign a gaggle of them and invariably one or two will make the roster.

[Smeefers]

So no one thinks Spitz has a shot in hell in staying on the team? I suppose, he just seemed so very good to me not 2 years ago and now he's garbage. I do have a tendency to hang on to guys i like for way to long. I still thought Lee was a contributer until he flopped around last year.

This is a good guess. Colledge and Jenkins have a chance to stick, but this is a solid guess knowing what w know.

I think Spitz actually has a good shot. Both he and Lang really slid last year. Maybe it was injury, hard to tell. I mean at the center position we have Wells, Spitz, Evan Dietrich Smith, MacDonald, and Schlauderaff said he was told he'd take some snaps at center. We have no one dominant there, but Wells played great last year. Behind him who knows. Most everybody, including myself, really has no idea about Oline play.

Chances are good that Spitz will be a FA under a new CBA. I would expect him to look for a better opportunity than he now has in Green Bay. I don't expect him to even be in camp.

Wells is also starting to gain a reputation around the league of being a very underrated center. So I think they're okay for a starter there.

As for Spitz, I think his back did him in the same way it did Harrell's.

[Lurker64]

Oops, I caught my counting error. QB(2) should just be Rodgers and Flynn. I think we roll with 2 QBs again this year, as Harrell is precisely nothing special. TT and MM won't be afraid to go with a rookie backup to Rodgers the year after next when Flynn leaves.
