soooo...

Quarless
Bostick
Rodgers
Lyerla
Stoneburner

how many TE do we usually carry?

I dont think Lyerla can be stashed, other teams would love to snatch him without costing a draft pick.

If Finley could come back... a potential two TE set with him and Lyerla is an exciting thought. Well, we have a lightning rod to keep an eye on... He is a SIZZLE guy. Couldn't get one in Round 1 but we added one from a tryout. I can't wait to see if this ends in a ring destination or total trainwreck.

I don't think there'll be much middle ground here. High or low.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Rodgers must be smiling with the toys he has to play with. Add Lacey to the mix and my God are we going to have a potent offense.

Hopefully the guy shows up to play and can push Bostic and Taylor for roster spots. If he pans out we'll have a decent TE group.

5 star recruit out of high school . 26th overall recruit in 2011, could be a good get if he keeps his shit together and doesn't go all Aaron Hernandez.

From a pure football standpoint, this is a very exciting signing for the Packers. He probably landed in one of the best possible situations for his own personal recovery and professional growth. I hope he has a great career here in GB.

I agree Dakota. Rodgers has to be freaking with all the talent we've added to our offense. Huge.

We have all seen it time and time again, throughout the league, a guy who has all the talent in the world but never learns any rookies most important 1st lesson.

That's how to be a Professional Football Player.

Time to grow up and become an adult, here's hoping he does, if he plays to his potential, the loss of Finley won't seem so bad.

beast (5h) : If they aren't doing it, then why are you assuming they know how to do it?

dfosterf (11h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (11h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (11h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (15h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (18h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (19h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (20h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (20h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (20h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (22h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : 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?
