Should the Green Bay Packers be ‘pondering’ a trade for Christian Ponder?

OK, Green Bay Packers fans, laugh as heartily as I did, if you like, but there is recent report that some feel Titletown could be a landing spot for Minnesota Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder. However, my opinion is that the idea the Packers would even consider a trade for Ponder is about as straight as one

UMM. No. Release him outright and I would still have to take a pass.

Ugh! I commented on this article shortly after they put it up on Google's hard drive.

Why trade for a guy who is going to be released? (I know it ensures you're the team that gets him so you don't have to compete with 30 others)

No way in the world Ted Thompson gives up a draft pick for that guy.

Lots of crazy talk this time of the year. Gil Brandt is suggesting the Cowboys call Brian Urlacher to replace Sean Lee to "save their season". He probably is better than AJ Hawk.

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."

I'd rather they re-sign Uncle Rico.

Everybody says no? Why? Ponder had the makin's of a good QB. With McCarthy's schooling, I bet he could be. He's a helluva lot better than Flynn, and probably better than Tolzien too. Of course don't trade for him, as it is pretty sure he will be released, but sign him? Hell Yeah!

dfosterf (6h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (6h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (6h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (11h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (11h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (11h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (11h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (13h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (13h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (13h) : umm... what?

wpr (13h) : I am stunned

Mucky Tundra (13h) : RICKEY SCOOPS WAS RIGHT AGAIN!!!

Mucky Tundra (13h) : ITS HAPPENING

buckeyepackfan (13h) : DEAL IS DONE

buckeyepackfan (13h) : MICAH IS COMING TO GREEN BAY!!!!!!!!!

wpr (20h) : Me do-ed it gooderly,

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

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

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

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

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
