Interesting Palmer listed as starting ILB next to Barrington.
Perrilo listed as backup LS.

Janis 4th returner?

Jeff better work on his consistency as a WR or he May see himself demoted to the PS.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I think it's gonna take at least two fake games to really get any read on a players consistency. It will be a fun battle to watch.

Janis isn't getting much love anymore... perhaps, it's true? That would make MM wrong.

According to Packer Report, second-year WR Jeff Janis "hasn't even taken a small step" in his second NFL training camp.
Coach Mike McCarthy predicted Janis would take a "big step forward" at the NFL Combine, but Janis' development ostensibly hasn't gone as quickly as hoped. Janis is competing with third-round pick Ty Montgomery and slot type Myles White for the Packers' fourth and fifth receiver jobs with Jared Abbrederis (concussion) on the shelf. Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams remain locked in as Green Bay's top-three wideouts.

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 am most interested in seeing how the depth issue at olb works out; a crucial position in the 3-4 defense.

But I'm thinking it's possible that James Vaughters could keep up the Packers streak of an UDFA OLB making the 53 man roster. If one of the OLBers is injured or if the OLBers outshine the ILBers and use Matthews to fill the hole at ILB then Vaughters could become part of the top 6 healthy guys that only play OLB which could give him a chance to make the roster.

Also it seemed like the pass rushing was better this family night or the pass blocking was worse. With the OL being very healthy, and completely back, I'm guessing (hoping) it's not the pass blocking.

I'm guessing partly because the OLBers keep getting injured and partly because the OLB talent depth has just seemed more impressive than the ILB. Also it's been said pass rushing takes a ton of energy so they probably rotate more as well, especially since 3-4 OLBers get used as 4-2 DE in the nickel packages which teams are running more and more of.

Thanks for the report. I was losing sleep wondering who our backup long snapper was going to be.

beast (6h) : Oh yes, sometimes they make using a cellphone tough. I just wanted to make sure it was the correct article, & thank you for pointing it out.

jdlax (8h) : I can't believe one of my teams went out and wablammo just up and acquired one of the best players in the world overnight

dfosterf (12h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (13h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (13h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (18h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (18h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (18h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (19h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (20h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (20h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (20h) : umm... what?

wpr (20h) : I am stunned

Mucky Tundra (20h) : RICKEY SCOOPS WAS RIGHT AGAIN!!!

Mucky Tundra (20h) : ITS HAPPENING

buckeyepackfan (20h) : DEAL IS DONE

buckeyepackfan (20h) : MICAH IS COMING TO GREEN BAY!!!!!!!!!

wpr (28-Aug) : 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
