Cobb in a way reminds me of Percy Harvin, whom I like a lot.

Me too. I was clamoring for the Packers to draft Percy Harvin, thinking he would probably go in the 2nd round. Alas, he went in the first round, and all we got was B.J. Raji and Clay Matthews III instead -- and then didn't pick again till the 4th round. Ted Thompson sucks.

Harvin is an awesome talent, and I don't even care if he needs to hooch up to rid himself of migranes. If Cobb can even be 70% of Harvin, I'm going to be very happy.

The only potential problem with the bolded strategy: I don't think Cullen has the same depth of feeling about changing teams that Clifton had. It could just be public posturing/negotiating on his part, but my sense is that he's more than a little upset about the way the team has approached re-signing him to this point. A free agent doesn't have to give his current team a chance to "match"; and I wouldn't be surprised if even if some other team gave Jenkins something in the range the Packers would accept, Jenkins signs with the other team instead.

Hope I'm wrong. But I just get the feeling that Jenkins might take a "you had your chance" approach once free agency starts.

I agree with what you're saying. From what I've heard Clifton sounds like a pretty shy guy and likes the small town way/feel of GB and that they might get more space from media in GB.

I agree I read that article where Jenkins was very upset about not getting more offers when he's been trying to work on a new deal for two years now.

But I've also read some quotes that made him sound like a realist and levelheaded but he's just disappointed that's it's so out of his hands and he thought he'd get more effort to resign him and get a new deal done.

So it could be ether way.

Crabtree's ability is blocking at the line of scrimmage and he is a must unless the new guy from Carolina beats him out.

We should just franchise tag Jenkins for a year to make sure we have a player in Neal. Yeah, it's a cheesedick move, but all it's not unheard of.

Crabtree really lacked in the passing game other than pass blocking. And Finley and Quarless are good blockers as well and they can move and get open, so I don't think Crabtree is must... I think he could be replaced by the 6th OL guy on offense (which 6 OL set might be an interesting way to get Sherrod involved if he's not a starter)

I think Crabtree bread and butter was blocking on STs. I've read he was clearly the best blocker on kick returns which was a big weakness.

70% Harvin that's on the field 100% of the time is better than 100% Harvin that's on the field 50% of the time.

dfosterf (8m) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes

dfosterf (24m) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same

dfosterf (30m) : *Friday*

dfosterf (33m) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (34m) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)

dfosterf (45m) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (52m) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (53m) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (54m) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (57m) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (58m) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (1h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (1h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (1h) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based

beast (1h) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?

dfosterf (1h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (1h) : 39 companies so far that I bet no one has ever heard of.

dfosterf (1h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

dfosterf (1h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...

beast (8h) : 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) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

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.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?
