Because magic football player land is closed for the season. I'd rather use 2 DL and five linebackers that can play, than put dog shit on the DL just cause the person weight 320.

The Jets did just waive Howard Green, so that might've been a decent player to claim for a team that has no one left.

But in all honesty, I think people are underestimating how hard we're getting hit at the LB position, as well. Mainly because it just isn't that obvious in the games themselves.

At ILB, we were down to Hawk, Bishop, Chillar, Francois and Simpkins. I don't know what Chillar's status is right now, but I do know that, with young guys Bishop and Francois and Chillar not completely healthy, it's a good thing to add a veteran like Wilhelm. Which we did.

At OLB, with Jones now out, as well, we're down to Matthews and Zombo. That's it. We really had no other choice but to get two OLBs from somewhere.

Packers Claim NT Green Off Waivers, Place LB Jones On Injured Reserve

The Green Bay Packers have claimed NT Howard Green off waivers from the N.Y. Jets and placed LB Brad Jones on injured reserve. The transactions were announced Wednesday by Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations Ted Thompson.

Green, a 6-foot-2, 340-pound sixth-year player out of Louisiana State, has played in 51 career games with 12 starts. He entered the NFL as a sixth-round draft choice (190th overall) by Houston in 2002, and went on to play in one game for Baltimore in 2002, 18 games with New Orleans from 2003-04, 18 games with Seattle from 2007-08, and 14 games with the Jets over the past two years, including two contests this season. All 12 of Greens career starts came with New Orleans in 2004. He will wear No. 95.

Jones sustained a shoulder injury this past Sunday vs. Minnesota. He had played in six games with five starts this season.

you may well be good. but you missed when you listed Simpkins as being on the team. ::razz:

Lol. We were down to those 5. Then we started signing and cutting. So in essence, the statement is correct.

So I'm still good in my book.

And I should stop hanging with NSD and ZS. They're too big of a confidence boosting duo.

Heh. You're one of the last people I worry about having a big head. Although the Packers can use a bright young kid like you. I should give Ted a call. First I'll PM Raider Pride for Ted's cell phone number.

Hoping for pickett and jenkins to come back healthy and we got ourselves a Dline (well as good as we could hope for that is ...).

dfosterf (16h) : Can't find the toggle, lol

dfosterf (16h) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .

Zero2Cool (16h) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.

dfosterf (17h) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes

dfosterf (17h) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same

dfosterf (17h) : *Friday*

dfosterf (17h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (17h) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)

dfosterf (17h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (17h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (17h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (17h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (17h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (17h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (17h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (17h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (27-Jul) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
