Only makes sense to cut Johnson if they plan on bringing in a 3rd RB with Lumps getting cut.

It may mean that they plan to have Kuhn take become RB #3 behind Jackson and Grant. Although it's pretty obvious that they like Kuhn near the goalline as a passing and running option.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

They like Kuhn near the goal line because he's a triple threat... which gives the Packers more options which MM likes.

Blocking, running and catching... he's not great at any but above average at all three.

There should be a Mel Kiperesque website listing the "Best Available Players" from everybody cut from all the NFL teams. We could go and kibbitz about who the Pack should acquire.

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Havner is surprising only because of special teams. I felt like the others were clearly better TEs, but Havner has been one of the bright spots on an otherwise sour special teams.

Yikes, that leaves Jordy Nelson as the return man? He is so god awful slow and tentative that's going to suck, maybe Shields will get some work there? Also they are working on an injury settlement for Blackmon which means they could bring him back but not til week 10... Interesting

I think Jordy is fast in straight line speed. I don't think he can go side to side worth a lick though.

That's the thing about Jordy, He's a good big fast player. But he has no wiggle or shiftiness. He'll crank it out regularly on Kick offs getting us decent position but with his size he'll be hard pressed to be a consistent threat to break the big one. He's not a good fit at PR either.

I wish the Vikings had been dumb enough to flat release that Raynaud kid... there was a return threat!

I think Havner was a better TE than Crabtree. I think they're taking a chance with Crabtree being younger so he can grow more and no one blocks like him on the return units.

Nelson was a good kick returner until he got injured last year, he wasn't slow or tentative and didn't fumble. But most just seem to remember after the injury when he came back and had troubles and clearly didn't trust his knee or what ever his injury was.

Zero2Cool (19h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (23h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (23h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
