Hoping to pick up Emanuel Hall if he isn't drafted.

I'd like us to bring in Gerald Willis if he is still available.

Hall, Hart, Coney, Benzschawel, Denis, Hanks, Holyfield, Granderson, Brailford, Edwards, Ozigbo... lot of intriguing players still out there. Hope we can get a couple good ones.

Maybe its the WI in me, but wouldn't mind TJ Edwards or Beau Benzschawel. Would provide some decent depth at both positions

I think we should just chuck money at slot receivers.

there is a reason Beau Benzschawel hasn't been drafted, he is an awful pass protector.

Guessing we sign Jeff Smith and DeAndre Thompkins.

I think Jeff Smith is a safe bet.

TE Andrew Beck (TEX), ILB Curtis Bolton (OK), G Nate Herbig (STAN), EDGE Randy Ramsey (ARK), EDGE Jesse Aniebonam (MARYLAND), and FB Alec Ingold (WISC) all had workouts for us pre draft and went unselected.

ETA: Ingold went to Oakland

Roster stands at 71 with an 8 man draft class. Need to get to 90. They usually get to about 86-87 going into rookie minicamp and make fringe changes around the edges after.

I don't think we have a lot of holes to fill on the offensive end that we didn't fill and possibly overfill. Tight end you could argue. We drafted, signed, and had returning players on the offensive line. We dropped a lot of picks on WR last year, and Kumerow placed himself on the roster, and Geronimo is returning. Williams made sense, but he is in line to be a 3rd string running back.

Defense certainly had the holes, and we pushed a lot of guys into those spots also. The entire season will depend on if Rodgers stays healthy, and if we can create real pass pressure with Za'darius and Prestion (now Gary and Fackrell).
