Packers quarterback Kurt Benkert has taken Green Bay and social media by storm in his first preseason with the franchise. From riding around in a Halo costume to joining the locals for Fourth of July festivities to his personable stories in post-practice pressers, Benkert has already proven to be a fan favourite since moving to [...]

If the Packers keep 2 or 3 QB's, I think that will tell us something about Jordan Love. If they keep two, then they are probably confident in Jordan Love. If they keep three, it could be that Kurt is really good, or that maybe they aren't convince Love will be enough. There's other scenarios.

My first 53 (which will change within a day or two) has two QB and Benkert going to the PS.
I don't see it so much as trusting Love as they know the season is lost if AR is out for an extended period of time. There are too many needs elsewhere. WR 6 or 7. TE issues with Jace suspended. OL with Bak's injury. Probably keeping 4 RB. 5 a slim possibility.

Yeah I'm going two QBs unless you think you truely got a #3 that's too good to lose... Benkert didn't exactly have a ton of interest, and he's been in the system for a little while.

And I believe his former long time head coach's new team need a #2 QB as well... and they didn't seem interested.

At this point, I'm more interested in resigning Tim Boyle when he becomes a FA in 2022 (or someone else) instead of holding a 3rd QB weather love is ready or not... (Jimmy G, Andy Dalton, Ryan Fitzpatrick and more are expected to be FAs in 2022 if we get rid of Rodgers and love isn't ready to go).

Also the Packers are so deep at WR, TE and OL, that they might need extra position more to keep that talent around. And you don't want to go too thin on defense.

I think they will only keep 2 QBs. Rodgers and Love.
If Rodgers goes down the season is lost anyway. There’s no one else they can just plug in and still have playoff hopes.

I think Cobb would be the third emergency QB.

I think Rodgers will go down this season, but we'll be ok. Let's see what we got.

If the practice squad rules are similar to 2020 (easy to put guys on the active roster, then throw them back to PS), there's no reason to keep a third QB on the 53. Unless you think the guy is your future starter but needs seasoning or something, like Love was last year.

Great point and speaking of which, I don't think the NFL has yet announced the PS rules for this year yet...

If you can easily activate a PS for one game like last year or not.

    Zero2Cool (9h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
    dfosterf (13h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
    dfosterf (13h) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (14h) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (14h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (14h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (14h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (14h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (14h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (14h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (14h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (14h) : 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 (15h) : 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 (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?
