The Packers have a pair of free agent tight ends in Jermichael Finley and Andrew Quarless who have yet to sign contracts for next season, but the team isn't waiting for them to make up their minds to explore other options. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that Owen Daniels is visiting with...

Quarless is the solution. Ted better get him signed. Finley can go wherever. As for Daniels, he is still just 30. If he is not permanently damaged from his injury, and if he is cheap enough, he would be a good addition.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

The biggest play of Quarless' career was a TD catch against Minnesota in 2010, which he actually dropped. Brad Childress just wasn't quick enough to challenge the play. He does have talent, but I wouldn’t put all my eggs into one basket.

Plus, it’d be nice to see the Packers get back to two tight end sets. A veteran plus an emerging Quarless (or draft pick) could open up that part of the playbook.

Daniels is a sure-handed tight end. Not the mismatch Finley is, but hey, it's a good signing if we make it happen.

You all know how ted and Mike love their TE's!!!!
Have you all forgot about Brandon Bostic?

Then there is Jake Stoneburner.

Silly not to think these guys aren't going to get better their 2nd year.

Plenty of room for Owen Daniel if Quarless goes elsewhere. Even if Ted resigns Quarless it would be good to bring Daniels in.

Not even counting on Finley, no way The Packers let him come back after the injury.

Bostic, Stoneburner, Quarless, the ever present Ryan Taylor and Daniel wouldn't be a bad lineup at TE.

You've got Taylor, Bostic and Stoneburner contributing on Special teams while developeing another year with Quarless and Daniel as a pretty good pair of starting TE's.

Sure-handed and could definitely help the red zone offense.

I want Quarless back, his blocking is very good and he has improved in receiving.

If we were going to bring in a FA at TE, I would look at Pettigrew.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I think Owen Daniels would be a good signing for the Packers. They have clearly expressed no interest in bringing back Finley (that's fine) and Owen Daniels is very sure-handed and is a red zone threat.

He'd be a good locker room presence and veteran presence for our young tight ends as well.

Zero2Cool (1m) : Who? What?

beast (8h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (13h) : meh

Zero2Cool (17h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (17h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (17h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (20h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (20h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (23h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (23h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

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

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
