Teams show interest in Packers tackle Giacomini

By Gregg Rosenthal

Apparently, there a few NFL teams out there that like Packers tackle Breno Giacomini more than the Packers do.

Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports "several teams" are interested in the 2008 fifth-round pick, although we're not sure why. Giacomini has shown no visible progress as a pro and the Packers have done everything possible to avoid him having a role on the offense despite a need at the position.

At this point, Giacomini is fighting for a roster spot in Green Bay. But it's possible another team could give up a seventh-round pick or another end-of-the-roster type to acquire Giacomini for depth before Saturday.

I guess that everyone needs some inactives on gameday.

Giacomini? Breno Giacomini? I always had high hopes for the kid, but if we could get anything for him at this point I think I'd take it.

Hmm... maybe we could trade him and a draft pick for a solid CB... 🤔

I say trade him for whatever draft pick we can swindle out of somebody.

Since they used a 5th round pick back in 2008 for Breno if they get a 7th round pick for him in 2011 it will be a bit of a disappointment. But that is better than just releasing him outright and getting nothing for him.

Ted sure does draft a lot of projects doesn't he? A few work out a bunch don't.

I don't think KGB was a project in 2000. He was a pass rush specialist in college. That is what they drafted him to do and he did it well.

Ssshhhh. Al Davis reads this board.

Oh, you mean Breno? Yeah, he's freaking amazing. If the Raiders give us a 1st round draft pick for him, that would be a steal on their end. I hope it doesn't happen.

If Breno Giacomini goes on to have a productive career elsewhere, we will have some empirical evidence to support us in pointing our fingers at our line coach. Then again, Tony Moll hasn't exactly lit it up in Baltimore . . .

Sure they might be interested in him.. he has the size and maybe a team with a NFL coach at the position can get him ready to roll.. but if you think he is going to fetch anything tangible in return.. I think you might be a little optimistic.

However.. there are suckers born every day.. I see a kid with poor footwork and slow in his set.. not becoming of an NFL tackle.

Or it truly might be another indictment of the quality of our offensive line staff here.

I think it speaks volumes that our three of our four best lineman are holdovers from a different staff of coaches at the position. Sitton being the exception..

Lang, Bulaga, DS and Newhouse haven't been coached "down" yet. 😉
