With all the competition on the O-line, I would expect a 7th round pick to have a hard time making the team. Williams will be fighting it out with Monk, Glover, Telfort, and Donovan Jennings for the last three roster spots, if they keep 10.

Agreed. How do you cut a versatile Aerospace Engineer?

The best 5 may be Morgan, Banks, Jenks, Belton, and Tom. Walker and Rhyan as quality depth. Monk should make it given his C/G ability. Same rationale for Williams. He practiced at T, G and C at Cincinnati...Packers love to draft Tackles who can also play inside. Same rationale for the last spot to Jennings with G/T talent.

I don't have any objections to this roster. Of course those last few OL spots and last two CB spots are up for grabs, and Enagbare or Wooden could edge out the rookies for roster spots, but this should be close to the final roster.

I said after the draft that Enagbare would need a great camp to make the roster due to his contract status but Cox could also have a bad one. I think they could get something for Enagbare prior to the cuts. Not much, maybe a player for player swap or a 6th for a 7th but something. He's played in both fronts, dropped into coverage 30 times on sim pressures last year, so teams with an Edge shortage should have interest.

There's a lot of agreement here, but there are two assumptions that I'm not sure are going to hold up.

One is that Enagbare will be cut so we can save a couple of million. He's due to be paid a little over $3M, and his replacement will also be paid, so the net savings is probably around $2M, and I don't think that cutting a dependable vet who played well for to save $2M is the best path to the playoffs.

For those of you who've forgotten, he's never missed a game in three years. That's dependability. He was 3rd in sacks, despite playing slightly less than half the snaps, and dropping into coverage on a fair proportion of them. He also played a buttload of special teams snaps. If you think you're a legit playoff team with Super Bowl aspirations, I don't think the $2M you save is going to seem like a bargain. This is being penny wise and pound foolish.

Another guy is Wooden. Again, he's stayed healthy, he's dependable, he has some versatility, he's cheap. And he probably won a game for us last year by blocking a FG. We're sure that Warren Brinson is going to be better? Why?

The pads won't go on for another 3 months, so there's no way of knowing. I just think that getting rid of a guy who you KNOW can do it in favor of a guy that you THINK is better is taking chances you don't have to, and it will eventually backfire on you.

Didn't Ted keep a whole herd of TEs one year? McCarthy was enamored with the position for STs and TT obliged.

After Savion Williams was picked, it occurred to me he could play in a hybrid "12" personnel with Kraft as long as the rookie improves his blocking, maybe even add 10-15 lbs. He's a willing blocker, but not very effective yet doing it.

Don't believe he has been asked to focus on it. Still, he's probably as good a blocker as Musgrave now, who seems to be at a fork on his career road.

I can see Johnson on the PS. He’s lighter but similar to Lloyd in style and attributes and a decent blocker at a lower level. He’d be good depth behind Lloyd as Wilson is behind Jacobs, allowing the O to remain unchanged if the first choice is out.

I doubt we have too much trouble stashing Johnson on the PS. It’s not often teams pounce on RBs at cut downs, even drafted ones.
