in recent years we have avoided targeting anyone in the first week of FA, look for lesser names to start popping up as targets next week, don't expect any of those "targets" to actually sign tho.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I've been scouring the blog sites all weekend, and the only news I've seen Packer related is the Clifton signing, Montgomery and Giordano getting cut, and Kampman signing with the Jaguars.

Hopefully once the ball gets rolling this upcoming week with the second tier of free agency, we'll hear a few peeps out of 1265.

So what are our main needs? ...
OL, safety, CB, LOLB ... which order thou ...

we have no idea if al harris will be able to start, our left outside backer was a liability - not necessarily a need but ya wed like some improvement there. OL - ya enough said there 50+ sacks ... I like bigby but can see us getting a solid 3rd guy since we saw what happens when one of our safetys goes down.

I would expect the next signing to be a long-term contract for Ryan Pickett.

It seems we have some interest in William Gay.

http://packerupdate.net/?p=2754 

Nothing is imminent, but the Packers are at least exploring the possibility of signing restricted free agent William Gay to an offer sheet. The ex-Louisville star, who started 14 games at cornerback for the Steelers last season, was tendered at the original-round level last week. So any team that wants to acquire the 25-year-old would have to give up a fifth-round pick in next months draft. Gay is neither big (5-10, 190) nor fast (4.6), but hes tough, instinctive and familiar with Dom Capers style of defense. Hes also a good special teams player.

Young corner with experience in the system for a 5th? Sounds OK to me, if only for depth.

We don't really need anyone ... if we can get one of those impact drafts like last year grab an impact rookie like Matthews and hoping the emerge of the Jones ... this team is off the chart.

We do in fact need a punter.

Al Harris will be back so I'm not to worried, Tramon handled pretty well last year and the year previous.

Who is this Al Harris guy? I do NOT want him on our team.

=) I think its a bit unfair to judge the guy by one youtube video, especially considering AP has done the same to many people in the league, all-pro players at that. No CB is really a match for peterson. Now i dont really know much about this guy, so i'm not here to defend him or anything, but saying you dont want him based on one youtube video seems a little silly.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?
beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked
Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?
beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league
packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."
Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme
Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)
