Yeah because Cullen Jenkins would make Frank Zombo's injury heal faster with his own injuries. Arrogantly stupidly spoken. Factoid!

Our 1st round draft pick needs to be an OLB that specializes in pass rush. Even a DE that can convert would be great, because he would more than likely be better in run support. I love the combination of Brian Orakpo and Ryan Kerrigan in Washington. They can both get to the QB.

We need something like that...it is pretty much the only weakness on our team (OLB opposite Clay). That and depth at OLine.

So'oto did look very good but usually he was going against a lower string than Walden and Zombo.

I think Zombo is the 2nd best OLB we have (after Matthews).... last year he couldn't pull off a fancy pass rush move well... but he could bull rush the OT back.... he struggled to then get around the OT for a sack but simply moving that OT back usually meant the QB was stepping up to his edge and he plays better run defense than the other OLBers. And the Packers LB cover in zones... so I think Zombo is fine in zone coverage... and no real advantage there...

Can't wait to get this kid back. One of my favorite Packers. I see him as a more talented version of Brady Poppinga.

We got some nice young bodies on this team that could really turn into solid starters in Lang, Burnett, Shields, and Zombo (Man, I wish I oculd include Mike Neal on this list).

Look forward to seeing what progress Zombo has made since last season.

Bring him back after the bye week adn starting getting So'to some snaps. I never subscribe to the thinking of bringing back a guy from injury too soon.

I hope Zombo's injury heals quickly! He contributed next to nothing in the pass rushing department last year, getting little pressure and just 4 sacks in 13 games while playing opposite and behind some good pass rushers, but he's going to fix this shit up! Packers SB! Packers world domination!
