The recent moves have placed 4 new players on the GB roster. They are:

Za'Dariius Smith (OLB/Edge Rusher) (from Ravens)
Adrian Amos (Safety) (from Chicago)
Preston Smith (LB/Edge Rusher) (from Washington)
Billy Turner (OL) (from Denver)

OLB Nick Perry was cut from the Packers roster

All interesting moves that could put GB in a better position to select talented players in the upcoming NFL Draft .

Given that we have not heard anything about Jimmy Graham being released, I think it's safe to assume that Green Bay will be cutting him a hefty $5 million check tomorrow. I wish I were optimistic that he'll come through in key situations this year.

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

He could still end up being a cap casualty in the final roster cuts, but it strikes me as an absurd waste of money to give him $5 million in March and then release him in August. Stranger things have happened, though.

I would also like to see Matthews moved to ILB as the two new Packer Smith pass rushers put the pressure on from the edges. Otherwise, release Matthews and free up some money.

Mercedcedes Lewis (TE) has been re-signed to a one year deal.

Geronimo Allison (WR) has been tendered.

If they didn’t redo his deal it would be a shame. He is not worth the money.

I'd also like to see Jimmy traded, but I don't think there'll be any takers for a 32 year old TE who has been playing pretty average, on a $ 10 million a year deal.

Cutting him would give us a little more cap space, but not enough to eat the dead cap and sign a player of the same caliber. And we certainly don't have a starting TE on the roster behind him. So there's no point, really.

The new offensive system utilizes blocking TEs more than before. i understand that Marcedes Lewis is a decent blocking TE. Graham, if kept, might just platoon in/out with Lewis. Two TE sets also should be a part of the new sys.

As for Clay Matthews, I doubt he finds a home with another team and might sign a 1yr for the league minimum. His time as an edge rusher is over, but he may still have a season or two left as an ILB. Matthews/Martinez on the inside and the Smiths rushing the edges sounds good to me.

I've always liked Geronimo Allison and I believe that he will have his best year yet.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (8h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (8h) : HUMP DAY

beast (8h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (10h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (10h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (10h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (10h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.
