OIn 2007 our front 7 couldn't stop the run, guess what, DBs get more tackles then. The drop in tackles to 2009 is a direct result of a much improved front 7 that actually did their job.

You want to debate heart and intensity, that's nothing but pissing in the wind. The truth of the matter is that in 2009 he was more than a non-factor.

Fine. Intensity aside, he gave up more yardage in 2009, which may be why Ted Thompson drafted a replacement. He was a solid player last year, but had little impact on defense other than filling the position.

All the Sparks excitement and desperation for a running game, IMO, has raised our expectations for him way too high. He could have a great rookie season, while simultaneously not living up to all the hype created by fans and coaching staff.

Not really i haven't seen much excitement for him other than people wanting to see what he's got as well as I do.I don't think he'll come in right away and contribute but he has some POT.Problem is he could be the next Justin Harrell Knocking on wood for that one.

Edit:Another thing could lie a problem for him is he will be the 4th String RB unless we get rid of nance for him.He won't be active on gameday unless they give him a couple carries and see what he has and if he doesn't take those opportunitys on those carries he won't see the field at all and i hope he sees the field i see a lot in this kid.All the draft picks have POT the only guy I don't see working out is maybe Newhouse but idk.

I doubt we're going to see much of sparks. He missed all his sr. year at buffalo, and now half of this season. I'm guessing the team will use the next 3 weeks to assess him and then put him back on IR.

dfosterf (4h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (4h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (5h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (12h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (13h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (14h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (14h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (14h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (16h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : 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
