Him and Lacy would do a number on defenses! Sure we already got Harris and Franklin but why not? Power running all the way! 🖐

Last season, Adrian Peterson and Toby Gerhart did a number on the Packers and the announcers made note they are two different style running backs. The Packers were trying to stop Gerhart with the scheme designed to slow Peterson.

The point? If you are going to compliment a running back, you do so with a different style and hope to catch the defense with the wrong personnel.

Blount is used up,(not really but to make my point, let's say he is).

Ted will probably trade out of the 1st round, get an extra 2nd and 3rd rnd pick from someone else and use that extra 2nd round pick on a rb.

Carlos Hyde out of Ohio State would probably still be available.

Lacy, Franklin, Hyde, Harris.

I could live with a stable of young guns like that taking the pressure off of Rodgers and the passing game.

Blount wouldn't be a bad pick up, as we have seen in the past, a team can never have enough rb's ready to step in.

Packers have two in Harris and Franklin, and whoever else they add during the draft or after the draft. I think we are solid at the RB position, for the first time in years.

Transitioning LGB to safety would take too much time. I don't think it would be a good pickup.

Starks likely comes back. There's no market for RBs right now.

dfosterf (10h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (10h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (11h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (11h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (11h) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (11h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (11h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (11h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (12h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (14h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (15h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (15h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
