With the Green Bay Packers rookies reporting to training camp on Friday, veterans will report on Tuesday and practice begins Wednesday. From there, we are only a few weeks away from games as the preseason kicks off.
The coaching staff and front office will keep a close eye on the players, as they try to narrow their roster from 90 to 53 before the regular season begins. All the cuts come at one time again this season which gives fringe roster players more time to make an impact (positive or negative).
To prepare for training camp, let’s rank every player based on the likelihood they will make the initial roster. Since Green Bay released their PUP list on Friday, I kept those players in that category while acknowledging that they can come off that list and begin practicing any time between now and the end of the preseason. Let’s place each current Packer in a tier based on the probability they make the roster using five other categories from least likely to most likely.
Here is a ranking of every player on the Green Bay Packers and their chances of making the initial 53-man roster heading into training camp.
