    CUT DOWN DAY, AUG. 29th. EARLY PROJECTION.

    Per NFL rules, teams must be down to 75 players on their active roster by Aug. 29th. Currently, there are 90 players on the roster (give or take 1 or 2), which means 15 cuts need to be made on Aug. 29th. Here is my list.

    1. Brian Wrobel
    2. Dave Rayner
    3. Arliss Beach
    4. Atari Bigby - IR
    5. Therrian "Toast" Fontenot
    6. Antonio Malone
    7. Jeremy Modkins
    8. Kevin Schimmelmann
    9. Kurt Campbell
    10. Jerome Nichols
    11. Chad Lucas
    12. Jerome Wishom
    13. Montez Murphy
    14. Vince Butler
    15. Pete Traynor


    FYI - The next cut day will be on Sept. 2. This will trim the roster down to 53. On Sept. 3 the team can form an 8 man practice squad.

    I would replace Lucas with Sander. Its time to move on.

      Do they have to cut Bigby if he's on IR? Does he count if he's on IR?

        As far as I know, he doesn't take up a roster spot, so they don't have to cut him.

          I notice there are no '06 draft choices there. Think they all hold on for a while yet?

          I'd be surprised to see Kurt Cambell go, but I guess they've got a pile of LB's in camp, and the starting, as well as most of the backup positions are sewn up.

            Ted likes to allow people like Kurt Campbell, a real chance to catch on elsewhere. He's one of those borderline types and could have a future in another Organization but he's not been very visable this off season with us.

            He made a splash - early last season, then the injury. I thought he might do better, but we have such strength at LBer.

              I didn't mean to confuse anyone with the Bigby selection. He will most likely be put on IR meaning he won't count against the roster. So it will be LIKE cutting him but we will still have him for next season.

              Campbell may have a future in the NFL, but probably not with the Packers. Hawk, Hodge, Barnett, Taylor, Popps, and most likely Manning are all ahead of him at this point. I just dont see him sticking.

              As for the 2006 draft picks, I suspect if they are going to be cut, the will be cut in the second round on Aug. 2nd. That way, we will have a better chance of adding them to our practice squad.
