GREEN BAY — Packers LT David Bakhtiari and S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix have been named second-team All-Pro, as determined by a vote of 50 media members of the Associated Press.

I never considered being "second team" being all that great.

Also Rodgers is 3rd team or worse and we knew he's not that great either...(sarcasm)

That's why you sometimes see big name guys who missed like half a season or played like crap make 2nd team all-pro, the writers didn't know who to pick so they went with a big name guy without doing their homework.

Notice how most the other Packers star players aren't even listed. They got even less 1st place votes.

Agreed on the AP voters not always knowing what they're talking about. Same as the pro bowl. Sometimes they are just wrong. But I think Bakhtiari in particular deserved the recognition this year. Not like that year Jeff Saturday played for the Pack and got the pro bowl nod, he was awful that year.

Zero2Cool (14h) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (14h) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (14h) : Can't make him play.

dfosterf (15h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (11-Mar) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (11-Mar) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Er getting traded twice like that
