Context is TT. Who released Josh? Who kept UDFAs over Josh? Ted Thompson

So, name me all the great bottom feeding UDFAs Ted Thompson has signed and then tell me which ones were better than Sitton

What makes you think that Ted picked a UDFA in favor of Sitton? We know few to likely zero reliable details about WHY he was released yet, so we should probably table the speculation masqueraded as fact for at least a day or so until the real story can come out.

(by the way, everyone, if you can't tell, I'm being sarcastic. While Thompson and company may think one or both of them are better, as indicated by their both still being on the roster, I don't. I'm not even sure either of them are better than Sitton with a bad back.)






And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

As for Brice. Love him. No reason Ted Thompson couldn't have found another really good FA in 11 years. I think he will be a star. We'll see.

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 don't get this correlation you're trying to make. Sitton was released. We DO...NOT...KNOW....WHY(yet). Contract? Save money for Lacy? He boinked Ted's mom? His back is worse than we thought? He's the 9th best offensive lineman?

I don't know, and I don't get what Ted's history of picking All Pro UDFAs on defense has to do with Sitton getting the boot.

You ever think that maybe he was released so he could find employment AND to prevent the Packers from having to cut someone they want for the season?


If you read the bold you'll, hopefully, understand. The point IS... Sitton is NOT less worthy of keeping that some bottom feeding UDFA which was argued to me that he was. Oh, and don't worry Dodd Power... I always leave this board before the season starts. To me, the season starts Monday. I'll be done after tomorrow and then you can feel like this was a good move because nobody will be here to tell you it's not and you can go on deifying Ted Thompson in peace.

It seems to be working... 🤦

Actually, the way things are going we might as well cut the punter, too, because right now we have no long-snapper to get the ball back to the punter...

I'm pretty sure this isn't our final roster, so at least one person who's on the team right now is going to be out before our first game.

Ted gets zippo comp picks for this. It appeared Sitton was still playing at a high level. There is absolutely no way in hell Ted would cut a pro bowler just so he can keep a UDFA who wouldn't make the active 46 most weeks. Something else is going on, we just don't know it yet...but it's NOT just so we can keep Dorleant on the inactive 7.

That UDFA whomever he was IS NOT and WILL NOT be more valuable to this Packer team than Josh Sitton was. We're talking about the 54th player on the roster being slid up to 53 once Josh was out of the way.

If you read what you typed that's bolded above...you get it, finally. That is the total lie I was fed about why we released Sitton...to keep some bottom feeding UDFA who will do NOTHING for us. I vehemently disagreed with that viewpoint.
