but we signed DeAndre Thompkins after he was released.

I was at 89 when this happened but I realised I forgot to add Funchess to the roster and that made 90. I went through the list of names again and we have exactly 90 and Campbell makes 91 so someone gotta go.

UPDATE: After a bit of investigation I think Amari Rodgers haven't yet signed. Once he does someone gotta be cut.

Yeah, I think Amari counts which does bring us to 90.  Remember we have 3 specialists who obviously won't be on the 53, with back up K seeming to be the most likely first to go.  We'll see if they've seen enough of any of those guys when the time comes.

I watched some news last night, listened to interviews by Bakh and Adams.

Bakh was great in his interview.  Said Rodgers would always be his friend.  Said that the team will go on with or without Rodgers.  Also mentioned that he would be crazy if he didn't add that he really wants #12 back, called him arguably the best quarterback to ever play.  Saw a lot of video of him doing drills.  He was moving nicely, but if I'm being fair, he is still pretty far away from playing speed.  Which was to be expected.

Adams was a very interesting interview.  He said that Rodger is his friend.  And that he has no idea what is going on, contrary to what the media thinks.  He talked contract extension and said that nothing is out there yet for him.  I'm forgetting a lot of what was said, but it seemed to me like he was waiting for an extension to sign.  It did not seem to me like he was dead set on leaving if Rodgers wasn't there.  He finished his interview saying that he's at camp just trying to improve every day to have an even better season.

He also said that given his origins, he wasnt going to be surrendering any money in order to hold out as a show of support. In other words, he declared: "Leave me out of this" - which is fine.

The player comment that I absolutely loved was Funchess - who's never played with AR - who probably doesn't know AR from Adam - and as a consequence could care less about ARs issues.

"You play with the guys that are here"

👍

Is camp open to reporters all week?  Training camp is going to be wild with the J Love reactions to every pass (whether Rodgers is there or not).

I thought about that and if Love does an interview they wouldn’t be able to help themselves asking questions he can’t answer or things like “Are you ready to replace a HOFer?” and  “Why do you suck at football?”

The media will do what they do. I don’t know if Jordan will be good at this level but he seems to have tuned out the noise which is great for any player but especially a young one in his position.

He is speaking today.

To me, Adams did not sound like a player whose future is tied to Aaron Rodgers.

The only thing left to do now is find out how much less Funchess could care...😉
