Packers: Predicting last 5 in, first 5 out of final 53-man roster
Following the Green Bay Packers‘ 0-3 preseason–games they didn’t really care about winning or losing–they have a number of difficult decisions to make about their final roster.
The majority of the roster spots are already decided, with only about six or seven up in the air following Green Bay’s preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. They must make tough choices at the following positions including quarterback, tight end, offensive line, defensive line, and each of the positions in the secondary.
The Green Bay Packers have a number of difficult decisions to make about their final roster, leaving some players elated while others will be disappointed.
Final cuts are due on Tuesday when Green Bay must cut their roster from 80 all the way down to 53. There are a couple of ways the Packers can create roster space like with Jace Sternberger beginning the season on a two-game suspension or placing players on the Physically Unable to Perform list (I.E. David Bakhtiari).
Given all we know from training camp and the three preseason games, here’s a prediction about the five players who will just miss the cut and five guys who will just sneak onto the roster.
