Just to be clear, the consensus is that we have no interest in one of this generations most disruptive DL. So when the Ted Thompson bashing starts up regarding any lack of talent, can someone find this topic as a reminder?

I am not lobbying for him, but I find it ironic for him to be bashed for attitude when it is talent that wins games. Besides, wouldn't we all have anger issues if we had played for the Lions??? :)

I personally think the dude is unstable. He has the potential to be one of the greatest players in the league, yet continues to display a lack of mental focus that hurts his team. He should have been suspended for their playoff game. If he did that as a Packer I would be pissed.

He is great until he gets suspended and we don't have him when we need him most. I'll pass. Like Musccy said, save that money for the guys who almost got us there this year.

Aarrington is saying that Suh would be best suited in Green Bay, he is not saying he is going to Green Bay. There's a large distinction there. Based on that, he is right, a defensive lineman that can dominate double team would be greatly beneficial to the Packers defense.

I completely agree. The risk/benefit ratio is way too high IMO, especially with the money Suh is asking for. Take the money and sign Cobb and Bulaga before letting them go for Suh. This guy also never played in a 3-4 IIRC, so it's kind of a system change as well. I don't say he cannot do it, not at all, but still we'd have to wait and see.

1. Ain't going to happen. Will cost too much for Ted.
2. I'd rather have Suh with his issues than Raji.
2A. IMO, most of the advantage with Suh comes regardless of whether Raji is there or not. IMO Raji's value is as a rotational player/backup only. If the Packers have Raji getting the number of reps that Guion took this year, the Packer defensive will IMO not be good enough.

I'm not too keen on keeping fat boy Raji. What has he does his last two playing seasons other than digress?

Money is not a factor, we have the cap space to sign them all if they wanted to. If Ted and Mike would determine he was worth the risk, I would have no problem with him coming.

With Him at one DE and Daniels at the other, Peppers on the edge Raji or whoever at NT wouldn't have to face double that often.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
