Very interesting... I'm still wondering what he did during the incident, but must of been bad if even the players wanted him cut/released following the incident.

Following the incident, Randall returned to the starting lineup and played well. However, if some teammates would have had their way, Randall wouldn’t have even had the opportunity.

Demovsky says some of the team’s veterans wanted Randall gone after his meltdown.

There was strong sentiment in the locker room at that time to give Randall the boot — sources said McCarthy’s committee of veteran players suggested that Randall be released.


He also says the Packers felt Randall could have played through a knee injury that sidelined him for the final two games. Of course, those final two games didn’t matter, but considering the Packers are notoriously conservative with injuries, it isn’t a good look for Randall.

I read one reporter say that one teammate when told of Damarious being traded, they responded "About time.".

Never gave a fuck about the team, that's why hes gone. I get it but we're in desperate need of DBs and that is before you realize we're about to lose morgan burnett too. Its incredibly frustrasting that we're going to have to use more high picks on corners for the 3rd time and probably have to break the bank for one.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

The picture clears ! Let us hope that a closer family like team will come from this. A disruptive element at work or in a locker room never motivates others. The new GM found a way to get rid of the bad element and get real value in return.

Packers NEED more CBs.

To get a player acquisition from this deal was just a bonus. I, honestly, feel that the draft position would have been satisfactory to unload a player you may have cut anyway. Those reports could be bogus, but I can't imagine it was a clean transition to everything being fine after the Chicago meltdown. There's so much people on the outside are not privy to.

I get/understand being sour about depth too. It's potentially very worrisome, sure. Let's say Kevin King is healed up and Herb Waters becomes the guy our defensive pass coordinator thinks he could be then we do have some other players we could try at nickle, but there aren't many and there's practically little to no experience in this secondary.

Question for the football pros here: What's to stop us from using and/or acquiring another safety/lb hybrid type guy to man that nickel position? Seems like if we get someone as big and tall as well as fast as a CB that can man that position, then it doesn't matter if he's listed as a CB, a S, or an LB. All that matters is that he can run with and tackle the man he's supposed to, on a given play. Right or wrong?

This rationale for the trade would make much more sense if he wasn't traded to a team with a management team that had insider information of the incident.

I think it's more about the team and coaches than high level scouts.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (8h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (12h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (12h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (13h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (13h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (13h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (13h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (13h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (13h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (13h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (13h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (13h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (14h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (14h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (14h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (14h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16h) : 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.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
