Earlier this week, reports around the NFL were claiming that the New England Patriots, who released Aaron Hernandez for obvious reasons, might be looking toward Green Bay to snatch up Jermichael Finley — but hold on, that Packers tight end of interest may be D.J. Williams instead. This morning, ESPN Boston aired a report that [...]

We should be so lucky.

IMO, D.J. Williams is one of the most likely to not make the final roster for the Packers. If we could get a 7th or 6th or 5th or 4th round pick for him, great.

A first or second round pick for Finley would be nice too, but I don't think that will happen.

If the Pack could get something (anything) for Williams they should grab it.
I just don't see Williams bringing much to the Table in Green Bay.

I don't see Williams as trade worthy but funny things can happen in the NFL.

Williams has no trade value. None.

The first thing to do is check the Vikings depth chart at TE, then see if anyone else wants to offer anything for Williams. There is probably something there if the Patriots are willing to give anything up for him, and I am not big on doing anything to help that franchise out.

We have a lot of TEs, but do we have a lot of GOOD TEs? Finley has history of dropping passes and his blocking leaves a lot to be desired, Quarless is a physical TE but coming off a knee injury, DJ Williams is a good blocker but like Finley drops passes, Taylor is a ST player, Mulligan is more of a blocking TE, Stoneburner and Bostick are unknowns.

While picking up an extra draft pick is nice, I'd like to see some of these guys step up in TC before we go dealing any of them. Of course if Williams and Taylor had been used a little more over the past two seasons we might have a better idea of what we have in them.

    dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
    TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
    wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

    dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
    TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback
    Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet
    dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
    dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
    beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
    dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
    Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
