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.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (12h) : HUMP DAY

beast (12h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (12h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (12h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (12h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (12h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (12h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (12h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (13h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (13h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (15h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (15h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (15h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (15h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (15h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (15h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
