1) I can confirm Nagler's report that the original trade offer was Davante for #22/Waller before the league shut it down.

2) My *guess* is that if GB is in the Waller market the value would be a 2nd round pick. He wants a new deal too.

I'm interested, but at what cost? I need to know more about what a trade would involve. I know they attempted to get Waller in the Davante trade. So, why would the Raiders give him up now?

I do like Bobby, but Waller is a high quality TE that would be a very valuable weapon.

If it's true that they had a tentative deal in place but couldn't because of Adam's being on the franchise tag, why not just break the trade up into two smaller deals and execute one after the other? Why the long delay?

Under Construction!

Please don't give up high picks.

Dude is a good player, but it just seems like they are trying to "buy" a championship.

As a comparison Deguara was the TE with the best numbers. 25 of 33 for 245 yards.
Lazard the 2nd best receiver 40 out of 60 with 513 yards.

Tonyan in 2020 52 of 59 for 586 yards.

Before any further discussion, I need more than a Aaron Nagler rumor. I have found no one credible reporting that the Packers are engaged in talks with the Raiders for Waller.

A lot of crap hitting walls around draft time. My BS meter is starting to register pretty high on this one.

dfosterf (6h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (6h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (6h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (6h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (7h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (7h) : Maybe a low flying drone

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 (8h) : 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) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

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

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

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?
