I wouldn't be surprised to see Starks put on IR on Monday.

Same here. The guy hasn't played football in two years. They can't expect him to come in and play now, nor should they.

Do you have a link to what you are talking about?

Not sure if you mean the bit about Harris being activated Monday or Harris being agitated.

Harris being activated Monday: two things synthesized lead me to this: McCarthy's Monday Press Conference after the Jets win, saying no decision had to be made on PUP players before Monday (link , and CB coach Joe Whitt Jr. saying he believes Harris to be on track with his recovery (article link, second last section) .

Harris seeming agitated: Here. It's a video of his interview yesterday, and from 1:30 on he makes it pretty clear he's been ready to go and he even had his son at Lambeau against the Vikings (but won't this week), implying he thought he'd be activated for that game.

I think they'll activate Starks if they can find a spot for him.

I think Harris is going to take one of those LB spots unless they IR CB Lee (I don't know how bad he's hurt) or someone else

Starks probably won't be on IR unless he is hurt. Which I am assuming he isn't. He said he was healthy enough to play in pre-season. They may hedge their bets by not activating him until Monday to give Nance one more shot at proving himself useful. If he doesn't, I expect Nance to be released and Starks activated.

There is always a chance someone gets hurt on Sunday. In which case, you don't want to cut someone until you have to. You may have an open spot to fill then. You don't want to be 3 people short and only have 2 to come in.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

I think they IR him, just because Ted Thompson likes to keep as many of his guys as possible.

JMHO, Bigby activated 1. because of numbers, 2. He will probably get work on ST's, maybe even returning kciks or punts.
I feel bad for Al, but waiting till Monday for him seems to be the thing to do. Someone else said it, Packers have to get through todays game injury free, then the picture will be much clearer as to what they can do as far as player move.

I can't wait for Al to get back on the field, imagine the things that Woody could be doing with a Healthy Harris and Williams.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

With Starks does he actually have to be injured to be put on IR or is one of the rules of the PUP list that any player on it can be placed on IR irrespective of their actual injury status?

My guess it is the latter.

If he's not injured and the Packers put him on IR, he can dispute it and get released pending a physical that he passes. I think something similar happened this year with Will Blackmon (who'll return kicks for the Giants today).

Zero2Cool (13h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (17h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (17h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (18h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (18h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (18h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (18h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (19h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (19h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (19h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (19h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (19h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (19h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (19h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (19h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (19h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (21h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (21h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (21h) : 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?
