Green Bay Packers tackle Marshall Newhouse has, at times, been the bane of my existence.

After two years of being a sub-par starter, Newhouse was finally relegated to the bench this season. Of course, he still saw some game action because of injuries to Don Barclay and, very briefly, David Bakhtiari.

Those games were not pretty.

Thankfully, Newhouse is about to become a free agent, so… good riddance!

Well, leave it to some tool from Bleacher Report to suggest the Packers actually re-sign him. Some idiot named Ryan Riddle, who actually played briefly in the NFL and should know better, called offensive line the strongest free agent position group this offseason.

Then he went on to list Newhouse as his sixth-best free agent offensive lineman. I know, that’s hilarious, but it gets even better. Here’s what he said about Newhouse, who Pro Fooball Focus has rated the 32nd-best free agent tackle. Not offensive lineman. Tackle. That’s right near the very bottom of the list.

"Despite appearances regarding the Packers and their blocking, Marshall Newhouse is one of the better tackles in the league. Losing him would set the Packers back a long way in terms of finding a replacement."

Besides, now is the time to build upon talent for the Packers, not replace it every year.

Better tackles in the league! Set the Packers back a long way!

Hahahahahahahahahaha! Seriously, I didn’t even make that up. Couldn’t. Some moron actually wrote it!

Well I gotta say this and don't know who will feel the same but here it goes. He is a terrible right tackle and a bad right guard too, but honestly, at left tackle, I don't know, he just doesn't seem to play "as bad". Not saying he is great or anything, but serviceable if nothing else. It's odd. Anyone else notice this?

all I know is,

Newhouse pretty much single-handidly ruined what could have been a 16-0 season.

The list of Free Agents in Yahoo has 8 OTs listed LOWER than Newhouse. I don't have anything good to say about Newhouse, but given a choice between him and Raji, taking original expectations into consideration, Newhouse is less bad.

Newhouse is a serviceable backup LT. That's about it. Most teams do need guys like him, though.

He's not a pro bowler, he's depth.

And there have been some doozies!!!!!

Newhouse has been shuffled around year after year, he had his chance to grab a starting position and was beaten out.

Who knows how he will perform with another team?

Somebody could pick him up, put him at LT and he could become a good lineman.

This is going to be a looooooooooooong off season.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

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
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
