Anxious to see the bubble guys fight for a WR job.

The young guys on both sides of the line.

Martinez and Fackrell against the run and the pass and where they are at development-wise.

Hundley available? Will the UFDA QBs show us enough to be considered for the practice squad?

Any UFDAs come out of nowhere this year like Gunter. What about Gunter does he still show us flashes to keep us excited?

Like everyone. Just want us to keep the injuries to a minimum.

Hopefully Cook and Monty sit this out or are limited.

And maybe watch Burnett at ILB some, as Hyde plays SS. Barclay looking surprisingly good on the inside of the OL (where he should have been all along). Rookie DL getting a ton of snaps. And a lot of talk about how Lacy looked during the game (which is hopefully great). Better depth than we're used to at the OL and LB positions. Some newcomers to possible show up and look good, TE Jared Cook, WR Herb Waters, WR Geronimo Allison, DL Brian Price, OLB Lerentee McCray.

As well as some negatives, such as lack of development of the non-CB 2nd year players. Janis still having tons of potential and failing to maximize it. Rookie OTs show potential, but also show they're rookies and still have a lot to learn. OLB Fackrell looks like he needs more strength before he'll be a playmaker in the NFL. Worse depth than we're used to at CB and maybe DL positions.

What we WON'T see is very much of the "Real" GBP's team nor the actual plays they will run.

At best you can pick out a player or two and watch how they perform in individual match ups. Then pretend that they will handle an All Pro the same way if they were in a regular season game.

But at least we are getting closer to meaningful games. [bdance]

I don't think this game is being broadcast much beyond the local area, so I hope so.

I'll be watching as best I or anyone can for a game with nearly X2 as many players and jersey #s to try to keep up with. Even the Packers Coaches and Staff will need to closely review the videos to really see who did/did not execute their blocking assignments, pass routes, coverage's , or tackling task. Yes, some players will shine brighter than others, but in the final analysis their skills will be evaluated by professionals that have spent their lives building football teams.

I want to see exciting plays and spectacular hits , but I know that whats more important are the plays where boring blocks are correctly executed or a pass coverage is correctly read or a line gap is correctly plugged . Preseason football is an important part of building a team. Players will go 100% against opposing players that are going 100% , both giving their best to impress and make the roster of a professional team and the financial benefits that go with it .

Most of all , I don't want to see any injuries to either team as I get a look at a sport that I have sorely missed . Go Pack Go !

It reminds me of a cross between Alvin Chipmunk and Rocky J. Squirrel.

Fan Shout
beast (7h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (11h) : meh
Zero2Cool (15h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (15h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (15h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (18h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (18h) : Only 4
wpr (18h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (22h) : 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
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.
