Packers Sign Massive Mack to Beef Up Defensive Line· Page 2

I feel very good about this former Texas A&M/Baltimore Raven. GB will I'm sure trim 20 to 25 pounds off of him over the next few months. At 6'1" tall, 340 lbs while hard to move is way too much weight for his height. This will be resolved in the weight room and at practices.

This guy would not have made the Ravens 2019 roster if were not a football "player". I see him being groomed to back up Kenny Clark AND as a specialty big man on goal line stands. Daylon Mack just feels like the future and the future is bright.

An addition that will pay big down the road!

FYI, the coach just talked about how he's talented gave great effort and suggest they they coaches just need to make sure he knows what his assignments is or something.

From there, I took the rest, as he should know his his assignments... which implies to me, that he's not the sharpest football wise, of knowing how to play different things that get thrown at him.

Problem is, if you can figure out how to get that talent out of him, you want him around, so they're still trying as long as he's on the cheap contract.

Pure speculation here, but after week 1 (to avoid veteran year long guarantees), the Packers sign an OL to the 53 after week 1 is complete.

Packers worked out former Seahawks Justin Britt at the same time as DL Mack. There is also Veldeer, but I would have thought he'd already be signed if they were interested, as he was fairly cheap.

In regards to Mack, I suppose there's some upside here since he was a 5th rounder just last year. At the same time, he sorta comes off as just being big and not much else.

dfosterf (7h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (7h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (7h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (10h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (10h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (11h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
