It would be great if this kid pans out.

At this time though, I am just enjoying watching my Chicago Bears fan friend squirm as he is a long-time Alabama Crimson Tide fan and has to listen to me talk about Eddie Lacy, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and now possibly, Adrian Hubbard.

He won't survive the second cut down day. Hold off buying your jersey.

Good. GB can use an upgrade in the LB group.

Tell you what uffs, read this Q&A from just before the draft, on April 19th and ask yourself if you are really being fair to the man...

http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2014/4/19/5625936/2014-nfl-draft-adrian-hubbard-interview-alabama 

He sounds like a very focused, professional person, one who readily acknowledged the things he felt he needed to work on. Also, note his comments on Peppers, and imagine how excited he must be to be on the same team as him.

Here's what Hubbard had to say on your boy's comments:

The guy didn't get drafted and he blamed it on the teams not getting their papers about him? What? That doesn't pass the smell test to me that he didn't get drafted because teams didn't know he was cleared. How could that be...he has potential millions riding on them getting those papers and he's just going to let it ride that they did only to later claim they didn't? Nope.

I'm not saying he's a bad guy... I don't know him at all. I'm saying some things have been said about him that cause concern and I happen to believe the where there's smoke there's fire thing. I'm not aware of any of the draft picks or UDFA's having this said about them save for Hubbard.

Hungry for news about how these guys looks and what guys, if any, are signed from the tryouts they had. One of the best times of the year.

Saban not wanting him back can actually be a good thing.

Something doesn't add up. If the blurb from Walter is true, then it wasn't his heart condition. It either spoke to his production (which it likely couldn't because he was productive) or something else. "Something else" has the blanks filled in by what Nawrocki wrote about him. I'm saying it's logical. It's not logical that a guy had papers saying he was cleared on his heart but none of these teams knew it. The teams and him/his agent get one crack at this thing over a period of days...no way teams didn't know he was cleared as he claims. Now, whether they believed he wasn't a risk even with the paper is a fair question, but it makes sense that he's such a problem child that nobody wanted to bring him in to their locker room. Packers took risk, I assume, by doing their homework and understanding he's a Peppers fan.

What a deal... Packers end up with Peppers and this guy follows him to Green bay. He likely is in Chicago if Peppers is still there. How will that play out over the years. Signing Peppers could've netted us a dominant LB and pass rusher for years and years to come.

I'm fired up for the guy... I posted about him in the UDFA thread...I'm just worried about the mental part of him because the physical is special. Never seen a 6'6 LB in Green Bay.

You're throwing an assload of shit out there on this player and it is completely baseless and unwarranted. You are worried about what "mental part?"

Fucking bullshit.

Are you for real? Have you not read about this guy? Why didn't he get drafted? You're going with he had a heart condition but teams didn't know if he was really okay because they didn't get a "paper" as Hubbard claims?

What would you like me to produce? Nolan Nawrocki ripped the guy... Bama was said not to want him back (based on Walter blurb)...you figure it out. Just because he's a Packer doesn't mean he may not be a problem child. I hope he's not... As I said... enough smoke for me to believe there's a fire.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Easier to get a camera on her in the suite where she can't impact the game by being distraction???
TheKanataThrilla (12h) : This is the least excited I have been in a long time for a Super Bowl. Unfortunately they both can't lose.
wpr (12h) : So why don;'t they have her on the sidelines and doing the halftime fandango instead of sitting on her but in a $1,000,000 suite?
Zero2Cool (14h) : Think more eyes on Super Bowl with Swift fans pulling for her TE boyfriend?
Zero2Cool (14h) : She dating the TE of the Chiefs.

wpr (5-Feb) : I thought KC already won
Zero2Cool (4-Feb) : If you wanna post about the Super Bowl, please, by all means, open a topic. They are free this month! 😁
Zero2Cool (4-Feb) : There doesn't need to be a topic. There's a playoff prediction thread.
packerfanoutwest (4-Feb) : and there no SB contest over in the other Packer forum, either
buckeyepackfan (4-Feb) : #2Officially Retires!
beast (4-Feb) : Probably no SB topic as people are wore out talking about the Chiefs, Refs and Eagles
Zero2Cool (4-Feb) : Packers reportedly have their new LB coach, promoting Sean Duggan to that role
Zero2Cool (4-Feb) : WR Cooper Kupp is being traded.

packerfanoutwest (3-Feb) : too funny
packerfanoutwest (3-Feb) : Lions QB Jared Goff was the offensive MVP
packerfanoutwest (3-Feb) : for the Pro Bowl, which is flag football
Zero2Cool (2-Feb) : Rather, the murder WAS covered up to prevent ...

dfosterf (30-Jan) : from ft Belvoir, Quantico and points south. Somber reminder of this tragedy at Reagan Nat Airport
dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eerily quiet here in Alexandria. I live in the flight path of commercial craft coming from the south and west, plus the military craft
dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?
beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired
beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.
Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal
Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.

dfosterf (27-Jan) : Happy Birthday Dave!
Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : happy birthday dhazer
TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
