This article seems a bit over dramatic after only one preseason game... but it has reminded me of how much we draft value we have put into OLB/DL pass rushers and how little we've got out of them.

Sounds like LB coach Moss would like Fackrell to play more aggressive and take more chances. Of course, with Moss being the coach, if he wants someone to be less assignment-type and more risk taker type, he should be coaching that as well. So it's partly about what you as a coach emphasize to the player as well. So emphasize taking risk and when to talk them, if you think Fackrell is being too assignment sure.

I remember an article where Elliott talked about Matthews has helped him a lot with when and where to take those risk...

This is a much better article on Fackrell, sounds like he really lacks strength and it shows when someone uses a power move on him during drills, but also sounds like he has good production numbers because opponents have trouble with his style and length... leading to good pressure percent per snap and ST tackles.

“Fackrell has always been a cerebral player,” associate head coach/linebackers Winston Moss said earlier in camp. “He’s more of an assignment-type player, and so he focuses on that a little bit more. We’d like him to be more, I guess, break out of that a little bit. Our position is about making plays. Talking about that, we’d like him to play with some more aggression, play with some more risk-taking and look to be more disruptive.

“I try to create a scenario in which you can enhance his ability to bring out his aggression, to say the least. I’m trying to find a story for you, I’m trying to find something for you, kinda drawing a blank here. But it will come.”

I think Fackerell will be an ok rotational guy this year with a chance to make a difference in subpackages. Not expecting an all pro now, or anytime soon.

Only like using bust in extreme circumstances and I don't usually go for this type of click-bait stuff, but if you ask me if I have faith in Fackrell... not much really. Just don't the sense of a killer instinct from the guy. Biegel will replace him in due time.

I've lowered my expectations for Fackrell but to call him a bust this early is a mistake. He could still put it together and be a solid rotational player at OLB.

Whoever wrote this article likely gave up on Adams + Nick Perry last year before they broke out, and has already written off Rollins + Randall.

P.S. if anyone knows how I can fix that I'd appreciate it because it does happen with a few websites I would like to visit. I assume its something in my settings but the last time I went and started ticking boxes and the like I got real messed up.

beast (5h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (9h) : meh

Zero2Cool (13h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (13h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (13h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (17h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (17h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (19h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (20h) : 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.
