Safety isn't looking so hot either. Tramon better be ready to go there. 

Wouldn't be surprised to see one of the IR guys added at both spots. 

I thought Redmond would make it there too. 

Edit: I should have read your whole post...

Just back from my Indian. Had absolutely no signal so could not use my phone to keep up with updates! at least my chicken tikka saag madras was very nice! xD

I'm very surprised we chose Sullivan over Redmond. I knew it was one or another. Not a fan of that decision.

With Fadol Brown making the 53 someone gotta make way. I suspect it'will be Bolton going on IR to create that roster spot. There's still that possibility of cutting Lewis and bringing him back after we put the guys we want on IR.

Don't forget guys, Crawford making the 53 ensures we will have 3 healthy ILB for the Bears game. Had we cut him we would be down to Martinez and Summers.

Seems like Redmond, Bolton and Kizer are probably the 3 most "surprising" but no huge surprises. EQ to IR puts us at 52 tomorrow.

Sullivan, Madison, Fadol Brown I imagine were the last 3 in and in danger of being cut for additional claims.

I thought Sullivan was a pretty safe and easy yes.  

Madison and Fadol, and ST-Crawford, were more bubbly to me.

Possible that Bolton was IR'd for the season? He was having second opinions on his knee...

Sullivan looked more like a nickel/slot corner to me. Savvy, tough, maybe not fast enough to play on the outside. This has to be Tramons last year. I imagine Sullivan or Jackson, whoever develops better, would be a good future replacement inside. 

 

Alexander, King, Brown and Hollman look like outside corners to me. Alexander could do anything of course.

Here are some noteworthy items:

The initial roster consists of 25 offensive players, 25 defensive players, and three specialists.
Only one undrafted rookie made the roster, WR Darrius Shepherd. At least one undrafted rookie has made the roster every year dating back to 2005. Shepherd originally came to Green Bay for a tryout during rookie minicamp, and he’s the first rookie tryout participant to make the initial 53 since Jarrett Boykin in 2012.
All told, 16 former college free agents currently are on the Packers’ 53.
The Packers kept four tight ends for the second straight year and for the seventh time in the last 10 seasons, dating back to 2010.
Rookie LB Ty Summers, who is on the roster as a seventh-round draft pick from TCU, led the entire NFL in tackles over the four preseason games, with 30.
The Packers released 30 players, placed one on injured reserve and two on PUP, waived/injured two, and made two trades for draft picks to reduce the roster to 53.
The roster is not necessarily final. Waiver claims can be made through Sunday late morning, and room must be made on the 53-man roster for any player claimed on waivers. The Packers are 12th in the waiver claim order, the highest they’ve been at roster-reduction time since 2009.
Also, players placed on injured reserve after this time are eligible to return during the season (missing minimum six weeks of practices, eight weeks of games).
Once the waiver period expires, teams can begin establishing their 10-man practice squads.
