really thought dupre or mc would make it. oh well...

Dupre wasn't ready to play in the NFL, he should be available to sign on the PS if the Packers like his potential. I would prefer McCaffrey, but I am going to predict he gets claimed by someone else.

That is a surprise and must mean they are keeping Fackrell?
Fackrell is garbage.. but I'm sure they are they need a back up lineman I bet they keep all 3 rbs I wonder if Kerridge got cut I know they liked him on special teams...

I predict both Mays and Kerridge get cut. Mays should be available to sign to the PS. Keeping 2 FB's would be a luxury.

Steelers traded CB Ross Cockrell to the Giants in exchange for a conditional pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Cockrell is a name some of us kicked around as an upgrade to the CB position back in the FA period.

So far price and Gilbert are the biggest surprise. The whole batch of wrs is a surprise too...

I definitely would have kept price.... crapola!

3:00 deadline is past. Guess the Packers know who they have kept. I still see some shuffling with maybe 1-2 guys coming from other teams castoffs.

Price surprises me a bit. The thing is with the WR's cut, I think the Packers have a good shot at resigning any of them, except maybe McCaffrey, to their PS. In any case, 2 of that group should probably still be there. McCaffrey is probably the only one that is ready to play in a real game.

It seems like CB Lenzy Pipkins has made the roster.

I am only counting 24 players cut so far, so I think more will be trickling out, after TT sends his list to the NFL. Not to mention, they still can make moves by picking up guys and releasing someone like Pipkins.

Gilbert was my big surprise as well. I thought he had a good final game.

According to his agent Pipkins didn't hear from the Packers before the deadline, meaning he has made the team.

For now ;)

Pipkins agent talking to him......"I swear Lenzy, my phone was ringing off the hook all day too, but I didn't answer it, you are safe!"

I hope Michael Clark finds his way to our practice squad along with max mccaffrey
those would be my 2 picks as well. One for immediate help if needed and one with a ton of potential but too raw and unpolished right now. I think Clark will be available to sign and since he already chose the Packers once as an UDFA and is familiar with the players, QB's, coaches, etc., if he likes Green Bay, he will be back if asked.

McCaffrey is all but gone is my gut feeling.

Is it just me, I don't follow the Vikings THAT close, but they seem to have a lot of 1st round busts? Sharrif Floyd was put on IR, he still hasn't made it back from a knee injury.
