That major class by B-Jack.

Like others, I would not mind seeing him return. However, I am not sure if he has a clear place on our roster any more.

Now granted Kuhn is a free agent also, but essentially Kuhn emerged in a role very similar to that which a lot of people think B-Jack is best suited to: 3rd down RB who can be useful as a blocker and a receiver.

Kuhn also gives you the versatility of doubling as a FB. Given Starks emergence as well, I wonder if there really is a place on the roster - assuming we resign Kuhn - for Jackson.

If we don't draft a running back I would certainly not mind this scenario

3 RBs: Grant, Starks, B-Jack
1 RB/FB: Kuhn
1 FB: Quinn

This is a placeholder

That's what I'd like to see, too. Love Korey Hall, but he'd have to be the odd man out if only went with 5...

I wonder if that set-up gets redundant, though. I wonder if you could better spend the money you give to either one of Jackson / Kuhn somewhere else - perhaps towards resigning Jenkins.

I don't see a lot of comparison between Kuhn and Jackson. Kuhn is a short yardage third down specialist. Jackson is a specialist for third and long or third and medium. Kuhn only caught 15 passes this season. Jackson caught 43. Kuhn is not nearly as valuable for screen passes, outlet passes, or dump-offs because he's not a good open field runner. In short, Kuhn is a fullback and Jackson is a halfback.

I think the Packers are going to look to add a speed element here.. something we haven't had in a while during the draft. So this might be in flux so to speak.

The problem is that B-Jack can't really contribute in the return game like Sproles, Bush. He's a much better version of Tony Fisher. He is definitely one of the better 3rd down backs in the league.

They will bring him back.

Can you imagine his little girl taking his jersey out of it case and wearing it on Halloween?

I love this:

Logo-less

Packers fullback John Kuh finished the Super Bowl without the G on the left side of his helmet. He was asked if it was done purposely?

You know what, it fell off during the game, It popped off once during the game, Im not sure when it happened, Kuhn said.

Since he played for Pitt it would be better if he did it on purpose.

Kuhn is decent in short yardage, but isn't the answer overall.

Zero2Cool (15h) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (17h) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (23h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (23h) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (23h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (23h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (23h) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
