OK, let's dream. This Packer Buddy is NOW the GM. What is my game plan? My plan involves 4 strategies for building the roster:
1 - Packer Players presently Under Contract
2 - Packer Free Agents
3 - League Free Agents
4 - Possible Draft Picks
Here we go:
#1 - Packer Players presently Under Contract
I will keep it simple, last name & positions: (59 active players)
(3)QB's - Rodgers, Kizer, Boyle
(5)RB - Jones, Williams, Bibbs, Carson, Coleman
(2)FB - Vitale, Johnson
(7)WR - Adams, Davis, Moore, Valdes-Scantling, St. Brown, Lazard, Redding
(2)TE - Graham, Baylis
(10)OL - Bakhtiari, Bulaga, Linsley, Taylor, Spriggs, Madison, Light, Siragusa, Coyle, de Beer
(6)CB - Williams. Alexander, King, Jackson, Brown, Redmond
(5)S - Jones, Greene, Jamerson, Matthews, Thompson
(3)ILB - Martinez, Morrison, Crawford
(5)OLB - Perry, Fackrell, Burks, Donnerson, Shelson
(8)DL - Daniels, Clark, Lowry, Adams, Simon, Lancaster, Looney, Cotton
(3)ST - Crosby(K), Bradley(LS), Scott(P)
To me, this a weak roster & many of these players are expendable! So, much of this discussion will center around a salary cap hit! For example, Perry at outside linebacker would be VERY difficult to cut, that would be a very large salary cut hit for someone not playing!
#2 - Packer Free Agents (20 free agents)
(0)QB's -
(0)RB -
(0)FB -
(3)WR -Cobb, Allison, Kumerow
(3)TE -Lewis, Kendricks, Tonyan
(4)OL -Bell, Patrick, McCray, Pankey
(2)CB -House, Breeland
(3)S -Pleasant, Campbell, Brice
(1)ILB -Ryan
(1)OLB - Matthews
(3)DL - Wilkerson, Gilbert, Brown
(0)ST -
The reality is, no one on this list is REALLY NEEDED! Sure, we have some tears to shed with Matthews & Cobb. BUT, they are making too much MONEY for the production we are getting!
#3 - League Free Agents - My Choices! (Name/Age/Team)
QB's -(Fitzpatrick/36/Bucs), (Shaub/38/Falcons)
RB - (Coleman/26/Falcons), (Yeldon/25/Jags)
FB -
WR - (Humphries/26/Bucs), (Patterson/28/Patriots)
TE -(Eifert/28/Bengals), (Cook/32/Raiders)
OL -(Safford/30/Rams), (Williams/27/Panthers), (Miller/26/Bills)
CB -(Darby/25/Eagles), (Nelson/26/Chiefs)
S - (Thomas/30/Seahawks), (Amos,25/Bears), (Collins/25/Giants)
ILB -(Hicks/26/Eagles), Mosley/26/Ravens), (Perryman/25/Chargers)
OLB - (Ford/28/Chiefs), (Smith/26/Redskins), (Wright/30/Seahawks)
DL - (Lawrence/27/Cowboys), (Richardson/28/Vikings), (Flowers/25/Patriots)
ST -
First, we NEED game changers on defense! Will will EVER have a dominate pass rusher??? And, we NEED help at safety! Last year, 2018 was crazy. First we let Morgan Burnett walk & then we get rid of Ha Ha Clinton Dixx early in the season! On offense, a good & healthy offensive lineman would be good! And, last, but not least, a veteran back-up quarterback! Difficult to watch Rodgers go down & the QB is terrible!!!!!
#4 - Possible Draft Picks
QB's -(Lock, Missouri), (Jones/Duke)
RB - (Montgomery/ Iowa St), (Snell/Kentucky)
FB -
WR - (Harman/NC State), (Ridley/Georgia)
TE -(Hockenson/Iowa), (Lawrence/Clemson), (Smith/Stanford)
OL -(Ford/Okla), (McCoy/Texas&A&M)
CB -(Mullen/Clemson), (Johnson/Kentucky)
S -(Thornhill/Virginia), (Bell/Fresno St)
ILB -(Wilson/Alabama), (Pratt/ NC St), (Edwards/Wisconsin)
OLB - (Sweat/Miss St), (Ferguson/Lou Tech), (Jackson/Miami)
DL -(Gary/Mich), (Tillery/Notre Dame), (Granderson/Wyoming)
ST -
This list needs work! Watching the upcoming combine will probably change my list!!!
So, General Manager Albright is READY!!!!
