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 (12-Feb) : Keisean Nixon is trying to get Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams lol

Mucky Tundra (11-Feb) : Yeah where did it go?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : or did you resctrict access to that topic?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : why did you remove the Playoff topic?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
