Good Bye, Q.

I was hoping we were going to draft him when he came out.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Couldn't hurt to do the due diligence. Put some pressure on Richards and/or Quarless* to step up.

*discipline pending of course

This is a lot like the Reggie Wayne situation (although this probably makes even more sense) if you can bring in a veteran who outplays one of our youngsters why not have the better player on the team? If we are going to keep at least 3 TEs I think the combo of Rodgers, Quarless and Gresham (in whatever order you want to put them) would be far better than Rodgers, Quarless and any of our other TEs on the roster right now.

Worth a look sure but he hasn't shown to be anything to get excited about.

I found this hysterical reading from rotoworld.com:

Gresham's trip to Green Bay comes two days after he visited the Cardinals. He'd provide versatile depth behind the underwhelming duo of Andrew Quarless and Richard Rodgers. Signing Gresham could also make Quarless expendable following his early-July arrest on gun charges. When and where Gresham signs depends on the status of his surgically-repaired back. Gresham is best utilized as a blocker at this stage of his career, but is also a competent pass catcher.

---To everyone but some of the Packers fans here. I'm saddened nerd has me blocked. This is the exact kind of deprogramming he needs. 😂

I love the bargain bin time of year. I'd be cool with either free agent we've discussed over the past couple weeks spending some time in green bay. It's that whole initial free agent frenzy that I couldn't care less about.

I would love to see this happen (Packers sign him), but I fear he won't pass the physical.

Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?

Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks

dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.

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.
