And now, former Colts C Jeff Saturday officially has agreed to a deal with the Green Bay Packers. Nice Packers pickup.

Thanks to Silentio for texting me the news. He mentioned that this move demonstrates a "win-now" mentality, which is nice. I'm not sure how much Saturday has left in the tank, but I do know that he'll make an immediate impact in the locker room and that he's a very cerebral center so blitz pickups and protection calls won't be an issue.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Definitely a good pickup for the next year or 2. I'm so glad we didn't miss out on this one. Too bad we didn't have Clifton, Wahle, Saturday, Sitton, and Tauscher in their primes all together.

6 time Pro Bowler, 4 time All-Pro. Was Peyton Manning's Center for his entire career except his rookie season.

He's 36. Hope he has a few good years still left in him. As long as their legs hold up, OL can play awhile. (I'm no OL expert, I just read stats and that's what the numbers say).

So hopefully a great pickup. I'm convinced 🇹🇹 and 🇲🇲 have our 2 offseason priorities are protecting 🇦🇷 and replacing Cullen Jenkins (tied for importance). This shows protecting 🇦🇷 is in the works.

2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty. 🇹🇹 🇲🇲 🇦🇷

He's old as hell, but his value comes as a reliable(barely missed any games in his career - 6 games since he took over as the starter in his second season) veteran who can start while developing a younger player or serve as an experienced backup at worst. Good signing.

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns
