According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, G Caleb Schlauderaff, CB Bradian Ross and WR Diondre Borel were the first Packers roster cuts on Saturday.
Packers GM Ted Thompson usually tries to keep his draft picks, but chose to cut ties with Schlauderaff, a 6th round pick out of Utah. Does this mean Nick McDonald has a better chance of making the roster? How about Ray Dominguez?
It wouldn’t surprise me to see Schlauderaff back on the practice squad if he clears waivers.
Ross and Borel were both undrafted rookie free agents.
Update: Add undrafted rookie G Sampson Genus to the list of 2011 roster cuts.

Mc Donald, Dominguez? Check the waiver wires instead.
Lance Briggs wants to ne traded. Hmmmmmm! Na the scum will always be a Bear to me.
Ron,
I had the that first reaction when I read about Briggs, he is a great LB.. But he’s also somewhat of a malcontent and as you said, he’ll always seem like a Bear to me.
Then I thought I don’t know how he’d fit into our 3-4 base.. He’d be a great addition to our various nickle packages, though.
But, he’s a bear.
No surprises so far…
