The Packers made some changes to their roster after holding their rookie minicamp the last few days.

The team announced that they have signed long snapper Broughton Hatcher, cornerback William Hooper, and defensive lineman Antonio Moultrie. The team also officially announced the previously reported signing of seventh-round wideout Grant DuBose.

Hatcher played in 35 games at Old Dominion while Hooper had 100 tackles, 21 passes defensed, two sacks, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and two blocked kicks at Northwestern State. Moultrie transferred from UAB to Miami last year and had 14 tackles, a half-sack, and a forced fumble for the Hurricanes.

In addition to the signings, the Packers announced that they have waived long snapper Jack Coco. Coco played in all 17 games last season.

  3. The new-look Packers taking shape. Green Bay always takes the long view. I like what I see .. so far. Reminds me of when Brett came on board under then-new coach Holmgren. The team got better and better every year. That works for me.

  4. If Love plays great this season, there will not be a hold-out — the Packers will gladly tear up the last year and sign a further extension — like maybe three years this time — to get him tied up because now they have a better idea what they have. The Packers can make that very attractive by paying a big signing bonus on signing the three year extension — more money for Love, certainty for Green Bay — win-win.

  5. With the lack of depth and skill levels throughtout the packer roster…the three tryout players should have a solid chance to make the 53 man roster.

  6. If Cousins were capable of playing like Mahomes or if Jared Goff were capable of playing like Drew Brees, and if Justin Fields would finally get off his pedestrian plateau and show us something, I’d be worried in Green Bay.

    But, nobody is.

    If all those things were true last year, why didn't Green Bay make the playoffs? You think losing your 4 time MVP is going to put you back into contention?

    Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    I think the too-late admission from Rodgers of a broken thumb made a lot of difference. He wasn’t the same. Personally, I’m glad. If the Packers had slipped past Detroit the Packers may have wanted to keep Rodgers around. Not me. As far as getting back into contention, that remains to be seen. I’m just saying nobody in the NFCN appears to be light years ahead of Green Bay with Love under-center instead of Rodgers. Not worried.
