I already got one wrong prediction on my 53-man roster projection from after the draft, as the Green Bay Packers have already swapped out backup quarterback Desmond Ridder for Tyrod Taylor.

That got me thinking: How many roster spots are truly 100 percent safe on this team right now?

Here’s my best stab at it, but I’m willing to hear arguments one way or another.

  1. QB Jordan Love
  2. RB Josh Jacobs
  3. RB Chris Brooks
  4. WR Christian Watson
  5. WR Matthew Golden
  6. WR Jayden Reed
  7. WR Savion Williams
  8. TE Tucker Kraft
  9. TE Luke Musgrave
  10. TE Josh Whyle
  11. LT Jordan Morgan
  12. LG Aaron Banks
  13. C Sean Rhyan
  14. RG Anthony Belton
  15. RT Zach Tom
  16. T/G Darian Kinnard
  17. G/C Jager Burton
  18. DE Devonte Wyatt
  19. DE/NT Javon Hargrave
  20. DE/NT Chris McClellan
  21. DE/NT Warren Brinson
  22. ED Micah Parsons (when healthy)
  23. ED Lukas Van Ness
  24. ED Danie Dennis-Sutton
  25. ED Barryn Sorrell
  26. LB Zaire Franklin
  27. LB Edgerrin Cooper
  28. LB Isaiah McDuffie
  29. LB Ty’Ron Hopper
  30. CB Keisean Nixon
  31. CB Brandon Cisse
  32. CB Carrington Valentine
  33. CB Benjamin St-Juste
  34. CB Domani Jackson
  35. S Xavier McKinney
  36. S Evan Williams
  37. S Javon Bullard
  38. S Kitan Oladapo
  39. P Daniel Whelan
  40. LS Matt Orzech

Guys I view on the “roster bubble” are:

  1. QB Tyrod Taylor
  2. QB Kyle McCord
  3. RB Pierre Strong Jr.
  4. RB Damien Martinez
  5. WR Bo Melton
  6. WR Skyy Moore
  7. WR J. Michael Sturdivant
  8. T Travis Glover
  9. C Jacob Monk
  10. G/C John Williams
  11. G Donovan Jennings
  12. DE Karl Brooks
  13. NT Nazir Stackhouse
  14. ED Collin Oliver
  15. ED Brenton Cox Jr.
  16. ED Arron Mosby
  17. LB Nick Niemann
  18. LB Kristian Welch
  19. CB Kamal Hadden
  20. K Trey Smack
  21. K Brandon McManus
