Considering the Packers usually say "he has a foot" and turns out he needs neck surgery. I'm siding with the notion that if the Packers are fearing the worst, it's worse than that.

Really sucks. Can't even make it to the first preseason game. Likely going to be another looong season for the offensive line.

Here's to hoping Sherrod can start playing soon otherwise it's back to the Marshall Newhouse drawing board.

I wonder if they'll move Sitton back to the RG.

As disappointing as this is, I'm not fretting too much about Newhouse possibly taking over there. I think he has a chance to better his play after a down 2012. I have hope with him that he will take that step up in his play.

Sherrod seems like he is probably on the 3 year plan like Flanny was. With Bakhtiari being a rookie, he might be better off on the right side. Andrew Datko looks to be failing somewhat in his development, but it is still early and he may show. He's been a bit of a disappointment thus far.

Time to sign veteran LT, and I don't have a clue who might be available. While we may have some promise with the young guys, including Barclay, who I also really like, we should have a dependable veteran ready to go at LT, just in case.

If true, this has all the makings of currently the worst injury of the pre-season in the NFL next to the center of the Broncos.

My take: New competition at the left side with Bakhtiari and Newhouse. I don't think you do any switching with the guards and leave those battles consistent with the way they have been. Based on footwork, I like Bakhtiari to assume that roll. It is a HUGE risk yes, but even based on experience, I don't think Newhouse has earned that spot by default.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Well this blows. They should give Bakhtiari a shot there while it's still TC to see if he's got what it takes. If not, back to Newhouse.

Agreed. He looks more natural out there even as a rookie. To my eyes at least.

dfosterf (45m) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (8h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (9h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (9h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (10h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (12h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (22h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
