You are on record that this D will be Top 5, or better, barring numerous injuries. Injuries to who?

I think our D will be in the 20-32 range. We have a giant disparity there.

I'm not sure how much stock I would put into absolute defensive ranking though, be it points or yards. As long as the Packers continue to be a top 5 team in passer rating differential , they'll be a force to be reckoned with.

I'm real interested to see how the inside our defense shapes up. Counting on a raji resurgence over here.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

The Packer's Offense is not and has never been this thread's topic. The Packer Offense is not a concern. The concern is and continues to be the Defense of the Packer's.

Can they stop the run ?
Can they stop the pass ?

Gonna be curious to see what some post after Thursdays game.

Try to remember it's the 1st preseason game.
I'm betting The Packers will be in their base defense the whole game.
The rookies and UDFA's are going to see a ton of work.

This is the time to start determining which guys really belong.

Really don't expect to see much if any of Doms creative defenses until the 3rd game, then not a whole lot, just enough to please the home crowd.

Looking forward to seeing which of the young guys make a statement the next 4 weeks.

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

There will be a lot of individual evaluations.

I'll be with many others here in the "CHAT" area .

It sure would be nice to have a top ten defense again in GB. It seems like forever since that has happened (95-96?). I don't think most teams will be able to hold our offense down so that they can grind out a run game on us, so the most important aspect of our defense will be pass rush. We have a lot of tweener players that can line up all over the defensive front, which should only help the pass rush. But I'm really skeptical about our young secondary, and idea of the most important player on the defense being Sam Shields, because if he goes down with an injury - the Packers defense is in serious trouble.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (15h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

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

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

wpr (23h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (23h) : 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?

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
