Over the past few weeks since the Green Bay Packers started training camp, a few players have come and gone and some position battles have started to take shape. Just before camp started, we gave you our projected depth chart based on the players we predicted would make the 53-man roster for Week one.
Today, we take a look at how we think the Packers' depth chart currently stands. This is based on snaps in the first preseason game against Arizona and in practice, as well as comments from Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson in their press conferences.
Position | Starter | 2nd String | 3rd String | Reserves |
QB | Aaron Rodgers | Graham Harrell | Vince Young | B.J. Coleman |
HB | DuJuan Harris | Eddie Lacy | James Starks | Johnathan Franklin, Alex Green, Angelo Pease |
FB | John Kuhn | Jonathan Amosa | ||
Wide Receiver | James Jones | Jordy Nelson | Jarrett Boykin | Alex Gillett, Omarius Hines, Justin Wilson, |
Slot Receiver | Randall Cobb | Tyrone Walker | Jeremy Ross | Myles White |
TE | Jermichael Finley | Matthew Mulligan | Andrew Quarless | D.J. Williams, Brandon Bostick, Ryan Taylor, Jake Stoneburner |
LT | David Bakhtiari | Marshall Newhouse | Andrew Datko | Kevin Hughes |
LG | Josh Sitton | Greg Van Roten | Lane Taylor | Patrick Lewis |
C | Evan Dietrich-Smith | Greg Van Roten | Don Barclay | Patrick Lewis, Garth Gerhart |
RG | T.J. Lang | Don Barclay | Greg Van Roten | Lane Taylor |
RT | Marshall Newhouse | Don Barclay | Greg Van Roten | |
LDE | Ryan Pickett | Mike Daniels | Johnny Jolly | |
NT | B.J. Raji | Ryan Pickett | Gilbert Pena | |
RDE | C.J. Wilson | Datone Jones | Mike Neal | Josh Boyd, Jordan Miller |
LOLB | Nick Perry | Mike Neal | Andy Mulumba | Nate Palmer |
LILB | A.J. Hawk | Rob Francois | Sam Barrington | |
RILB | Brad Jones | Jamari Lattimore | Terrell Manning | |
ROLB | Clay Matthews | Dezman Moses | Donte Savage | Jarvis Reed |
LCB | Tramon Williams* | Micah Hyde | Davon House | Jarrett Bush |
RCB | Sam Shields | Casey Hayward* | Brandon Smith | James Nixon, Loyce Means |
FS | Morgan Burnett | David Fulton | ||
SS | Jerron McMillian | M.D. Jennings | Chaz Powell | Chris Banjo |
K | Giorgio Tavecchio | Mason Crosby | ||
P | Tim Masthay | |||
LS | Brett Goode |
As far as we can tell, that's where things stand at this point. Obviously, the kicking competition is just getting going, and how the two players perform in actual games will be a determining factor in that race, but for now we think that Tavecchio has the edge based on Crosby's poor performance at Family Night.
Do you agree or disagree with the way we see things currently? Let us know in the comments.
