If that's from @espn...I sure don't see it on their twitter. TV? Radio?

It's here:

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/08/24/packers-plan-on-calling-reggie-wayne-after-he-visits-patriots/

This was the tweet that started it all:

Jermichael checks in with his thought:

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."

This is one of the reasons you do consider signing Reggie Wayne:

Plus, he's smart and the kind of guy Aaron can trust. With the age of our elder statesman at 25 in RC18... what a presence he would be.

Reggie was hoping to be signed by Pats this AM...well it's afternoon in New England. Hope remains.

sounds like an agent trying to get his guy more money from the team he's visiting with.

Would he rather be there for "revenge" or here? Would he rather play with Brady or Rodgers?

Funny how Reggie Wayne became so relevant so quickly. As MR pointed out...guy caught 13 for over 200 against us a few years ago. I'm sure Ted Thompson and MM remember.

T.Y. Hilton spoke with Reggie last night and RW told him he was definitely playing ONE more season. Has one last shot to win a SB. Who is he going to bet on? Us? or...the reigning SB champions? Does he want to be along for the ride or a major contributor?...that very well could be the deciding factor.

He chose NE.

While I rarely get too much on board with reading what a player has to say, I think Reggie Wayne is a guy you can trust to not oversell himself. I think we're going to regret not adding a veteran like him:

Will be fun to see how he does in New England... if he tears it up over there it's going to be a bitter pill to swallow if we struggle.

PS: Your comments on VanPelt didn't "sound stupid" at all, but 100% spot on! A QB knows exactly how WRs are supposed to do their job and has insight into that a WR turned WR coach might not have

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : CB and OG in FA, narrows down the top of the draft board a little
