      I thought Nixon was a special teams guy who never did much on defense. Maybe that Kiondre Thomas is legit. Or maybe Rodgers said 4 or 5 but meant 4. I don’t know. Shemar seemed on top of it in the games. Hes competitive.

      • All three of those guys have played well in the preseason games. SJC has apparently has made a nice second year leap.

          Rico Gafford started out gangbusters- I haven’t heard much about him lately, though, so I wonder if he faded.

          • I didn't like what I saw of SJC last year, he's much better this year.
            Gafford has faded somewhat. Kiondre Thomas has picked it up a bit. SJC and Nixon are near-locks to make it as CBs 4 & 5 for their play on D and ST.

            That Enagbare rush made me lol with the duck and slide. I think he's a lock at this point as OLB3 or 4 at worst. A 260 pound OLB is not undersized, 240 would be though. I think Pettine (and Berry) both like the OLBs a little bigger to hold up in the run game and set the edge. Bigger OLBs are also more likely to bull rush, which is something Enagbare can do. Dude is strong and has really long arms.

            • Conversely, Tariq Carpenter - a physical specimen - appears to be struggling to make the team, even as a ST guy. I think maybe he needs a year of seasoning on the PS to get his sea legs.

                Agree. Problem is, if you can't make the Packers ST, how good are you?
                All the same, I'm rooting for the kid. Gute likes his R7 picks, but this year he might not roster a single one from this year's draft. I think 2-3 of them get PS spots though.

                Really like Toure. I don't think he makes the 53 but I hope he makes the PS.

                    • Wow. Getting a pick for a guy you probably would've had to cut is an accomplishment.

                        Look around the league at the number of OL injuries and shaky rosters. I will not be surprised if any of the promising OL we have get scooped up immediately if cut.

                          Yep...and we still have the top 10 guys. I saw an article that said Gutes never kept 10. I just can't see who to cut. It almost has to be Hansen. Or Caleb Jones will suffer a mysterious injury tonight and be placed on the IR. What are the odds we end up trading a DL for a pick as well. The other Slayton has balled out during garbage time. We kinda have 5 guys locked in. I always believed you win in the trenches, and this team is stacked to do just that. Guys like Campbell look great when they stay clean. Guys like Goodson look great when they get 4 yards untouched.

                          • What was odd about what Jax did was that if Packers cut CVL, they had 1st pick on the waiver wire. Maybe they did the trade so they would have him under contract for 3 more years. Or maybe they thought Packers might keep him.

                              Or they thought another team would trade for him.

                              • His contract would've been on waivers along with him, so they have all three years trade or waivers. So maybe not that rationale.
