What do you think the options could be? Ahmad Brooks? Shane Ray? What other "proven" pass rushers are out there that could actually help the Packers this season?

Not a lot of teams have proven depth behind their starting pass rushers. I'm looking at Chris Odom and Reggie Gilbert this off-season. They have definitely flashed and check all the boxes of what you are looking for in the position.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Well did MM ever say it was going to be proven pass rush? Or even if it had to be outside the team?

Personally I've thought went Jake Ryan is sent forward he has looked his best, hitting an OL and trying to break up the play and I think he got some tackle for losses that way... I'm not sure if it was a called blitz or he just saw something and went full head steam charge. Also Josh Jones and Burks blitzing off the edge.

But purely looking at some outside veterans, here are some more.
Robert Ayers, Junior Galette, Elvis Dumervil, Lamarr Houston

There is also Johnathan Hankins... who is more of a NT, but if you put Hankins and Clark on the field at the same time, one can just cut it loose and pure rush more often.

I wouldn't mind Ahmad Brooks being brought back to compete for a spot. I think he offers more than he showed last year due to injury, and he seems like a smart guy that could be up Pettines system. Perhaps there are others like you suggested. I just think one more key pass rusher would be nice. I have little faith in what the Packers have beyond CM3 and Nick Perry, who we know will both be hurt for some part of the season.

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 (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
