Hey fellas

I been away and missed all of the preseason. All I've seen is a few highlights on youtube. What did I miss? I know about Jordy and James Jones, but not much else.

Who were the surprises? Good and Bad?

Anybody I should go back and look at their preseason work?

How did all the units look? Offense Defence Special Teams?

I was feeling pretty good about the team's chances before my trip. Should I feel any different?

I know it's all gut feeling at this point but what everybody's feel for the early part of the season?

Thanks guys

WR Ty Montgomery, LB Jake Ryan and QB Brett Hundley looked like future studs. FB Aaron Ripkowski looked like a ST coverage stud. 😎

Packers are not deep at OT and DL at the moment, at least until DL Jones and Guion get off the suspension list, but still not deep at OT.

CBs still have something to prove. At times they've looked very very good, other times not so much. They have clear potential but still need to learn more and pull it all together but most of them are very young so they still have time to develop.

recap from preseason:

- new CBs look good
- jordy out with ACL for year; we resigned Jones!
- new kick returner and receiver looks good
- Tolzien much improved and so is our project QB
- Running with 2 FBs this year again

What I got from this preseason was our secondary is going to be more strength than weakness as most thought. I would say it is the deepest position on the team right now.

Also our punter is going through some of the worst performances of his career. It's concerning.

    Zero2Cool (7h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
    dfosterf (11h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
    dfosterf (11h) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (12h) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (12h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (12h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (12h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (12h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (12h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (12h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (12h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (13h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (15h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (15h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
    dfosterf (15h) : 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
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
    Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
    dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
    Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
    Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
    wpr (9-Apr) : yay
