Or you know, trafe a 1st round pick, DT Lowry and maybe a few other odds and ends and get the Panthers starting RT, RG, 2nd DT and backup veteran SS and win the Super Bowl.

It's not as good as solving world hunger, but I might be pretty happy with it... (assuming winning the Super Bowl part).

Nice frame of thought though.

Jon Runyan made clear he wants to stay LG: “For sure. Definitely I’m more comfortable over there. The majority of my football career, I’ve been on the left side. So it definitely feels more natural for me. The left side feels like home.”

I'm done with Bakhtiari. He was amazing, but his body just isn't holding up. It's sad. I hate it. It's just time to move on -- maybe?

My new OL.

I think Jenkins wanted to stay at RT (which usually get paid better than OGs) and he's in a contract year... also it's obvious everyone wants to stay at the big money/more important positions if they can, or where they have played.

That being said... with Jenkins and Runyan playing OG, there is no where for our 3rd round pick OG Rhyan to go... which is why I questioned selecting a guy with an OG build to start with so high in the draft.

Though still, Tom was one of my favorite long term OL prospects and we still got him.

But what about your stance of Jenkins being an All pro at LG and it's stupid to move him? Now we're moving him?

And everyone but Myers and Runyan flop sides?

Predraft I compared Tom to Bakhtiari in muliple ways... they look like Centers, but have elite pass blocking potential and if they're physical to make it, should be able to play LT.

So I liked last week's lineup and here is my 8 man GameDay depth chat

LT: Bakhtiari / Tom / Jenkins
LG: Jenkins / Tom / Runayn
OC: Myers / Tom / Jenkins
RG: Runyan / Newman / Tom
RT Nijman / Newman / Walker

If you don't understand the issues with moving a LG coming off ACL to RT, then I can't really answer this in anyway that will make sense to you. You're deliberately skipping my entire point and focusing on one aspect to make an argument. I have explained numerous times the challenges being great from G <-> T vs L <-> R.

Of course, I don't hear/read everything, but Jenkins wanting to stay at RT for financial purposes is definitely new to me. And if it's true, cut his ass. You play high quality at LG and then say you want to keep playing shitty at RT in hopes of money.

This is my #1 OL preference. #2 lineup is what we had vs Commanders. #3 is whatever crap I posted earlier on a whim.

"On David Bakhtiari, who practiced yesterday after missing last Sunday’s game: ‘That situation’s going to be fluid the rest of the year.'"

We could be on the hook for that whole contract. No trading him now.

I think the Nijman experiment is over. He got destroyed when it mattered most.

Tom is not ready for prime time, although I don't know who else is.

Even with Jenkins healthy, we are at least one man short. The cupboard would seem to be relatively bare there, as well as WR.

Go Packers!!!!

Zero2Cool (16h) : HUMP DAY

beast (16h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (16h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (16h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (16h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (16h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (16h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (16h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (16h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (17h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (18h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (18h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (18h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (18h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (19h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (19h) : 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 (8-Jan) : 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

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

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.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
