Assumed GB would splash on either a pass rusher or CB so I didn't see this coming. Paired with reports that Myers will not be resigned, does that mean that Jenkins or Rhyan gets moved to C?

This "top-ranked" guard was ranked 9th amongst guard in FA class, per PFF
https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-2025-free-agent-rankings-guards...but again, am not overly enamored with PFF anyway.

Hopefully knows the system, a good locker room guy.

Have gave up very few sacks.

It will be interesting to see what they do with Morgan. Maybe there are not as high on Rhyan as some. I still see Morgan at LT

Go Packers!!!!

With that contract, I would expect him to start. But at LG or RG?

Walker - Banks - Jenkins - Rhyan - Tom?

Or do they put him on the other side and move Rhyan to center?

Walker - Jenkins - Rhyan - Banks - Tom?

Morgan the swing tackle and competing for LT?

Well, all the philosophers got their wish on this one regarding building the lines. Build the lines it is said. Problem is it's very pricey. I have a tendency to agree with this plan, but damn the bitching isn't going away from such a large percentage of Packer fans. It would be helpful if he was any good.

Tweeter and BlueSky are full of nimrods wanting to move our All-Pro LG to C. I wish it would stop. (Gosh that sounds super rage there, sorry, it's meant to be more tongue in cheek than someone smashing the hell out of their keyboard) This isn't Madden.

This Guard, TOP GUARD 😜 available by the way can play both LG and RG with equal greatness.

Walker/Morgan - JENKINS - ??? - Banks - Tom

We probably need to add a free agent Center for depth and probably drafting one in 3rd or 4th round.

The only real opening is Center. The other four spots are spoken for.

Banks was 72nd out of 200 top free agents per ProFootballFocus

72. G Aaron Banks, San Francisco 49ers

I'm not sure they need to sign or draft a center - they drafted Monk last year. But I won't be surprised if they take a versatile OL in the 4th or 5th who can play G/C like they tend to do.

beast (5h) : If they aren't doing it, then why are you assuming they know how to do it?

dfosterf (11h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (11h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (11h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (16h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (18h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (20h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (20h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (20h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (20h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (22h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
