Matthew Mulligan might not charm fans on Twitter, have arms covered in tattoos or take a fake field goal flip all the way to the end zone against the Packers biggest rival. But so far, it looks like the Packers lone veteran free agent signing is filling in nicely for departed fan favorite Tom Crabtree [...]

I'm a bit surprised about all the hype around Mulligan blocking. I had to miss the preseason game against Cards... but I singled Muulligan out in the family night game and his blocking honestly looked clearly worse than Quarless blocking from two years ago. Then again maybe he just had a bad night, that night.

Also most the plays I saw him where plays where he had to chase somebody, like going to the second level, get to a LB and block them. When I've heard he's better when he doesn't have to do the chasing such as pass blocking a bliter or pass rusher that attacking his gap. Or run blocking a DE across from him. But hey it'd be nice to have a good/great blocking TE again.

Watch his individual play against the Cardinals. I was impressed. He had the defenders name everytime he blocked. Granted it was probably against backups, but he looked pretty damn good to me. Definitely not a receiver, but he is a excellent blocker.

Also I've been wanting to hear more about the back-up TE battle. It really seems like none of the back-ups have set themselves apart this year (unless Mulligan now has). I've been waiting for Williams and Taylor to break out but it hasn't happened (yet).

I thought Williams was going to be like TE Tory Humphrey but live up to the hype... where Humphrey could never stay healthy enough to get to his potential.

And I thought Taylor had the potential to become the jack of all trades and very well could be replacing Kuhn if they tried him at FB and TE...

But they seem to not be stepping up. Anyways thanks for the detail of Mulligan against the Cards.

dfosterf (15m) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from
dfosterf (22m) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

dfosterf (24m) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

beast (33m) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...
beast (34m) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

dfosterf (1h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise
dfosterf (1h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...
beast (7h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...
dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
