Anyone know any teams that have journeyman backup swing tackles? Obviously Ted took the best one on his list from a practice squad.

Just wondering who we could trade if such an opportunity came up. We have depth at WR and S, which for all practical purposes includes Randall and Rollins, since they're really S playing CB. Plus we got Brown on PS and could probably get Gunter back. (Did Gunter get picked up?)

I wouldn't trade Martellus, he just needs to get in sync, but Jordy and Geronimo would be available if I was GM. I'd consider Cobb, because he's got a big contract coming up, but he's young and he seems to have regained some of his burst from former years.

Then there's also Hundley...

The offense has been horrible without Nelson... you'll be like the Bears GM that traded away TE Greg Olsen (which really helped the Packers out). Of course Nelson is a lot older, so maybe not as horrible.

Texans LT Duane Brown is still holding out for a larger contract. Of course his current contract pays him an average of 9.575 million over the next two years, which is the 16th highest (14th LT highest) and he's saying that's not enough.

The pick six that happened this week, was due to Jordy no longer being able to beat the defender to the ball.

I've also wondered was Adam Jones assuming it would be a comeback on Allison's overtime catch and run, because it looked like at one point he stopped going backwards.


But that's much more of a mental error by Nelson than a physical error like you're suggesting.
You're just throwing all kind of blame at Nelson and seeing what sticks. Did Nelson do something to offend you, or is he just old?
Last time I remember a good player getting this much shade it was an extreme Republican who hated Driver because Driver once promoted the Democrat party, and admitted to stealing as a child to help feed his family.

Packers sign Ulrick John


Ulrick John - OT
6' 6" tall
309 Lbs.
Age - 25
Georgia State
EX : 4 years

His bio shows that he played in 2 games for Miami in 2015 and started 3 games for Arizona in 2016 . He has managed to stay for 3 NFL seasons , but has healed from his 2016 shoulder injury . Arriving in GB like the Calvary to the Rescue , I believe he will be needed right away . I bid him a hearty welcome and may the force be with him . [thumbup]

Fan Shout
wpr (2h) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (22h) : 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.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
