The Packers have said goodbye to a pair of guards in the last year with the release of Josh Sitton and T.J. Lang joining the Lions as a free agent, but they are reportedly bolstering their options at the position with the addition of another veteran. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Packers...

Good signing.
Will bring more competition in camp for that starting RG spot.
At worst he adds veteran depth.
All the draft "experts " have been saying this year's draft is weak at the Guard position, maybe Ted agrees.

I can see only upside to this signing. Won't cost the team much at all, and get a good veteran to play if needed or at minimum competition and somebody for the young guys to learn from.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

He isn't here to "compete" for the starting RG position... He is here to be our starting RG.

Nice move. This helps the Packers not feel as much pressure to use a high pick on an interior lineman.

Ted's going all in dudes.

I guess even Teddy realized that Barclay isn't the answer. I don't know how much Evans has left in the tank. Hopefully he won't be as bad as the Sunday signing. Naw, no one can be that bad.

It gives Lucas Patrick and Kyle Murphy more time to be game ready to play. I wasn't in the least bit surprised Ted Thompson let Lang walk. Guards don't usually get big money in Green Bay. Would have like to have seen Tretter resigned though. Versatile, cerebral player.

Not in his prime but quality starter if he is on the field. Can't argue with affordable depth. Don't believe it changes any focus or strategy in the draft. Lessens the impact if a BPA lineman isn't available during the draft. Smart move.
