I hope we keep Sam Shields strictly for kick returning. He couldn't be worse at coverage than Jarret Bush, anyway.

I'm already hoping we can somehow squeeze this guy onto our PS:

Chris Campbell

Biography: First-year starter awarded All-Conference honors last season.

Positives: Big, athletic tackle with a large degree of upside potential. Blocks with a wide base, stays square, and is a terrific position blocker who seals defenders from the action. Strong enough to turn opponents from their angle of attack and displays good punch with his hands. Blocks with good lean and anchors in pass protection. Better-than- average footwork off the edge and shows the ability to adjust. Attacks assignments and stays square. Recognizes blitzes and slides out laterally to pick them up. Shows a nice degree of competitiveness in his game.

Negatives: Must improve his overall will blocking strength. Falls off blocks and lacks balance. Does not possess natural bulk and gets pushed back off the line by large defenders.

Analysis: Campbell was primarily a reserve his first three seasons at Eastern Illinois then really broke out last season and moves forward as a terrific developmental prospect. He possesses the skills to play left tackle but is also projected to right tackle by some because of his frame and growth potential. He?s a potential late round pick who should make a practice squad next year.

He is a guard.. he is a mauler.. he is a power blocking guard... and he has a nasty disposition on the field.. IMO.. would provide valuable depth and one hell of an option for a short yardage situation..

Not the end of the world.. just a Pack93z type of ball player. 😉

Doesn't change the fact he's an UDFA and might end up on the PS or waiver wire. There's still a chance we could pick him up later. ;)

As for the Sam Shields play, that is something we could use in Green Bay. I'd be breaking TV screens if such an amazing play were negated by a penalty, though.

Coming in for a tryout:

WR Shawn Gore, Bishop University (Canada)


Being in Toronto, I've heard of Gore a bit. Dude can flat out fly - ran the 40 in the range of 4.35 seconds. A touch taller than 6 feet, about 200 pounds.

I'm guessing he is getting a tryout as a KR.

I listened to him today in a interview on Toronto's Fan 590 radio.

He sounds very humble, but also confident enough. I hope he can bring something to the Packers. Nice kid in general.

Martha Careful (4h) : 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 (5h) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (21h) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.
Zero2Cool (22h) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (22h) : -3 buwahhhahaaha
Mucky Tundra (22h) : 4th
Zero2Cool (22h) : 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
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
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 (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!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
