You put Hawk in the right position and he will do fine. He spent his entire career at Ohio St in opposing backfields so you can't tell me now he's just not capable of doing that.

Nearly everytime I saw Hawk blitz the offense had somebody there to block him. Our defensive blitz package was so simple to deal with it was rediculous. If you watch other LB's that have better numbers they got those with a LOT of clean shots to the QB becuase the offense was fooled by what was coming. You put a blocker in front of them every time and see what numbers they produce.

This is the year that J.Bush will be cut, hopefully.

Ted Thompson spoke at the combine but there wasn't alot of news worthy things to say except this:

The most newsworthy thing was that Thompson said he expects all three of the Packers' pending unrestricted free agents -- Mark Tauscher, Michael Montgomery and Colin Cole -- to hit the market on Feb. 27.

Thompson said there has been no contract talk between the Packers and Tauscher, and said there likely won't be any until he is healthy.

That is curious Ted... Mark and his agent are saying otherwise..

Plus there is this little matter of Mark rehabbing at the Packer facility.. is he hits the open market, I think he can't continue that. To my knowledge Mark is still in Green Bay...

If Tauscher does not get re-signed. It's an absolute no brainer for us, we will draft an OT for depth and to protect our franchise QB with our 1st pick.

My money is on Jason Smith or Michael Oher.

I still think it makes a ton of sense to resign Tauscher... if he doesn't start he can backup multiple positions.. Guard or Tackle.

Plus the guy is a "Packer People" type... blue collar, excellent teammate.

Sounds like Chad Clifton, who had another clean-up surgery in the off-season, will the guy at left tackle again:

"I think Chad is a very good player. He's one of those guys that struggles to get through the week, just getting to Sunday. But on Sunday, he plays the game well. So he's had a couple, three surgeries here and those are things that...it's not that easy to get over. But we're still counting on him coming back and being a good player for us."

He is so close to being finished as a player. With Tauscher uncertain to come back and Clifton struggling to be fit each week. I dont think Ted Thompson can ignore it any longer and MUST draft an OT in the draft.

I agree. I'm hoping for either one of the top three OT's in the draft of Malcom Jenkings (CB).

Any of those I would be super stoked with the first round.

The problem is, will there be an OT for is in the first round? It could very well go that:
Rams: Eugene Monroe
Bengals: Andre Smith
Raiders: Michael Oher
Jaguars: Jason Smith

Leaving us with Eben Britton and William Beatty as the next best OTs, whom I think shouldn't be taken before the second round, but because of the huge need for OTs in the league, they will be taken in the first.

This is a placeholder

OT in the draft. NOW we're talkin' lol.

Edit:

Because Raji will not be there, because we would do best to trade back, because Brace may be available in the 3rd round, and because everyone is too 3-4 / Linebacker / DL centric for my personal tastes as regards the draft vs. FA, and because at least it should be open to discussion the concept of an OT.

For me, this draft looks great for OL, not DL, especially in a 3-4 scheme, and I keep going back to the thought/concept that DL is such a huge crapshoot when going draft-route, contrasted to O-line, imo.

Again, for me, don't get this wrong. If Raji is there, pull the trigger. IF we get a "partner" AND Raji isn't... I still say trade back, but I will not be angry if we get one of the premier OT's.

Zero2Cool (2h) : QB coach Sean Mannion

Zero2Cool (2h) : DL Coach DeMarcus Covington

dfosterf (4h) : from ft Belvoir, Quantico and points south. Somber reminder of this tragedy at Reagan Nat Airport

dfosterf (5h) : So eerily quiet here in Alexandria. I live in the flight path of commercial craft coming from the south and west, plus the military craft

dfosterf (5h) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (9h) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (9h) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (12h) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.

Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : Chiefs Eagles...again...sigh

dfosterf (27-Jan) : Happy Birthday Dave!

Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : happy birthday dhazer

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
