He’s been a huge upgrade over JK Scott as a punter but Scott was a magician as a holder.


Totally stupid idea here, but I watched a video earlier where Pat McAfee suggested there are three different jobs of kickers, FGs, kickoffs and punting, which are all completely different, and he stated he doesn't believe one guy could do all three for a full season as their leg would wear out from all the practice you need to put in to be NFL level quality.

As for the totally stupid idea... can we bring JK Scott back for kickoffs and holding on the FG unit? If we sign him to the PS then we can even get two games out of him without releasing anyone off the 53 man roster (though 1 less on GameDay roster).


As for long snapper, why did we ever move on from Brett Goode? I'm still shocked and amazed (unless he was lying/exaggerating) but Crosby once suggested he's never seen Goode have a bad snap, even in practice. Though he's probably retired, but even the CFL has.long snappers, we can't find anyone decent?

Also, Jake Hanson has been a 3rd string Center most of his time and might be again if Bakhtiari is back and Jenkins moves back inside, but they should at minimum test Hanson to see if he could potentially do it... hell test all the Centers, hell yes all the players and see if anyone is half decent or rises to the challenge (most likely they won't, but quickly test them), what could it hurt?

And on a random sidenote, I looked at LS whom will be FAs this coming offseason... looked like 15 or more LS.

Also named were J.J. Jansen, Rick Lovato and Clark Harris, which are all former Packers and currently starting LS.

We actually traded Jansen away, but we had Brett Goode for a long time after. For a 7th for him.

Packers actually drafted Clark Harris as a TE. He didn't make it as a TE, but he stuck around on STs and TE long enough to improve his LS skills which were known about before his draft.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.
