Uffdaswede Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I had McCray on my list of 9 OL. If Patrick stays we have to cut a CB or a RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Ryan was an OLB in college, they just moved him inside right away (OLB in a 3-3 stack, so it's not directly comparable, but still.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'm glad we kept Pipkins. Shields, Williams, Gunter, Pipkins plus all the ones I can't think of right now... We are pretty much going to have our pick with whichever undrafted cornerbacks there are out there due to how frequently they make the team. That's one thing that Ted Thompson doesn't get enough credit for. Constantly keeping undrafted free agents on the 53 man roster makes every undrafted free agent want to sign with us over other teams.

He's showed potential each of the past 2 seasons and is ultra athletic. Good to keep him around and develop him under Joe Whitt. I'm assuming GB is keeping 7 CB's with Pipkins supposedly making the 53-man roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Wow. GB keeping all 4 of their RB's....and maybe both FB's too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squire12 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Too many unproven players at the RB position to only keep 3 RB and 1 FB. Surprised by both FB's, maybe special teams situation there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just doesn't transition well unless you got athleticism/play recognition like Clay has, Palmer/Jones/Bradford didn't last long after they switched.

Packer_ESP Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Out of 10 picks, 3 cut and 2 potentially on IR / PUP. Tough start for the 2017 class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read it before you see it. Not sure that Clay is that good in that regard, but he is aggressive and makes some plays by guessing/being aggressive, but can also get himself out of position at times with that process.
