The times I have seen him play, he always fights for the ball. A big guy, who I think would go great with Rodgers.
JMO of course.
For the right price, I’d say give it a shot.
I don’t think he will take less money to play here anyway. He wants to play the Cowboys twice a year.

I'm confident that BG will draft a speedy WR and/or Trevor Davis will elevate his game beyond just returning Punts/Kickoffs.

Somebody please explain how The Packers can afford Dez Bryant when they couldn't afford Jordy Nelson after signing Jimmy Graham.
Even if they can afford Bryant then explain the logic of cutting Jordy Nelson.
Seems the team would be better with Jordy rather than Bryant.
What's done is done.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

IMO, GB will draft a WR this year. My dream WR would be not less than 6' 1" tall, have hands large enough to palm a basketball, a sprinters speed, and agility of a cat. That said, the experts mostly say that this will be a weak draft for WRs. As a result BG may need to carefully keep watch for any possible deals to acquire the needed WR talent. My trade package would include Randall Cobb + a lower round draft pick as needed for a solid #2 veteran WR to play Nelsons former position and move Montgomery into the Slot Receiver position.

I just hope he doesn’t end up in Minnesota.
I bet where ever he goes, if there is a half decent QB, he will light it up.
Just to prove Dallas wrong.
Revenge can bring out a lot of ability.
Just look at Favre in Minnesota against us in his first year there.

Unless of course GB offered him a boatload of money. 🙄

TheKanataThrilla (9-Aug) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
