Packers final 53-man roster predictions after preseason
- Two undrafted rookies make 53-man roster
- Multiple draft picks miss out
- How many wide receivers?
Offensive line (9)
David Bakhtiari, Elgton Jenkins, Josh Myers, Jon Runyan, Zach Tom, Rasheed Walker, Yosh Nijman, Caleb Jones, Sean Rhyan
Despite struggling this summer, all signs point toward Josh Myers keeping his starting job at center. However, the Packers have given Zach Tom and Jon Runyan Jr. plenty of preseason snaps there, so a switch could take place if Myers struggles in the opening games of the regular season.
Interestingly, Rasheed Walker seems to have moved ahead of Yosh Nijman as the backup tackle. With the Packers' excellent depth at the position, could they look to trade Nijman and create cap space?
Defensive line (6)
Kenny Clark, Devonte Wyatt, T.J. Slaton, Colby Wooden, Karl Brooks, Jonathan Ford
The Packers have a much-improved defensive line this year. Colby Wooden and Karl Brooks have impressed throughout the summer, and both rookies will have an important role to play this season. It's hard to believe Brooks fell to the sixth round of the draft.
Green Bay may only keep five defensive linemen, but we have Jonathan Ford making the 53 after a good training camp. He deserves a spot and provides cover at nose tackle.
The Packers could keep five and create a roster spot at another position. Time will tell.
