I'd like to see him. Thompson is available. He might even split time to some degree. I'd like to see Jones in a Big Okie type setup too. Smaller, but fast.

This says a lot about how far Jeremy Thompson has sunk, after wowing the coaches in the minicamps. Allen Barbre is another minicamp star who will now be riding the pine in favor of a rookie. That's fine with me. Let's try and find some guys who can play real football.

That's what I thought, as well, but apparently he's still bothered by all the injuries he had during this season. I don't know if it's a mental or physical thing, but that was the reasoning I got from Mr. Bedard.

And you know? Maybe this is a good thing. This is how we got Grant started, due to injuries. Same goes for 7th round tackle Tauscher in his rookie season. And even Lang this year, who's now starting at the right side over Barbre (luckely). It's not all bad.

What if Brad Jones racks up 8 tackles, 2 sacks and tips a pass? Do we continue to start him over Kampman?

Absolutely. We need a pass rush, and if he can bring the heat there's no reason not to keep rolling with him.

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) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

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.

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.
