The Bears are making their move. The Packers will have to deal with Peppers and now stop Taylor running the ball.

Yeah the Packers REALLY need to step up their OL now...

Bears- Peppers, Harris and Brown
Lions- Vanden Bosch, Corey Williams, Jackson and Avril
Vikings- Allen and the Williams Bros..

Suddenly LT (and the OL as a whole) just became that much more important

I'm just playing a little head game with myself, here - sadomasochism, I suppose.

Projected defensive lines 'round the NFCN in 2010:

Bears: Peppers (FA), Harris, Gilbert, Anderson/Brown

Lions: Vanden Bosch (FA), Suh or McCoy (draft), Williams (FA), Avril

Vikings: Allen, Williams, Williams, Edwards

Gah.

EDIT: D'oh! beast and I apparently had the same thought. Jinx! Buy me a left tackle.

I'm not sold on the Lions taking one of them yet... I think their wanting a LT more than anything and are looking for a trade back and LT...

or maybe a trade up from their 2nd and LT.

and I'm not buying anything :ramboface: I'll wish for the Packers to get a good one...

Day one of the 2010 season... remember it is only day one.

We have time to shore up our oline... I was in a tizz last season on the dline and it turned out just fine.. actually the most solid part of the defense from start to end..

"IronMan" wrote:

Absolutely. I'm not saying the Packers are screwed at all. My thing is that at this, admittedly early, point of the off season it's pretty clear that the Bears and Lions are gearing up to go after Favre and Rodgers. I think this just makes the obvious need for improvement along the Packers' offensive line that much greater.

As i have stated before we will sign a few low profile free agents and by the time the season starts they will be cut from the team for some BS reason. Thats the Ted Thompson way and you guys aren't used to it yet?

Chillar wasn't cut from the team and he was just given a new contract extension. Now do I think that cutting Smith was a smart thing to do, of course not. Just pointing this out.

I'm happy we don't generally get sucked into the overspending during free agency, but this year who really gives a crap if you overpay.

Usually the cap means that overpaying teams end up tight for space, but this is the year to spend big if you have bottomless pockets like Snyder etc.

As long as you structure the deal so that the contract is friendly for any future cap its really low risk spending.

The salary cap will be back. I think this is probably a one year thing until a new CBA can be agreed on. Teams that overspend now will pay the price later when they have to make tough decisions. To be fair, I think most teams get it. In the case of the Bears, they have no choice. If they don't win now, a lot of people will lose their jobs.

What I find very tough is to watch the other teams in our division make moves. I know some of them will not pan out, but it gets very tough to watch other people "hustle" when the PACK ATTACK seems to be sitting on the sideline!

Zero2Cool (3h) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

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 (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

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."

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

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 (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

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!
