ANNOUNCEMENT:

The draft is delayed to Saturday, August 29th at 4:15 PM CT. That is 1 week from now. I hope you all understand... and don't kill me, I hate changing things at the last minuet like everyone else. Maybe even more. But it's for the best.

I'm so sorry everyone for the delays

wtf, why?

I got a sub for work so I could be off for this draft.

Edit: and with it scheduled next Saturday I have to find another sub now.

I feel so, so bad. You don't know how bad. In fact, if there is anything I can do to make it better... I would. But for the best of the league, it had to be done. With a packer game and such, it would cause chaos.

If I can do anything for you, just let me know.

Fair enough, can we talk about the date with the league as a whole though?

Damn, I was hoping for having it today. Wouldn't our draft get done before the game starts?

Remaining Packers preseason games after tonight:

Fri, Aug 28th at Arizona - 9 PM CST
Thu, Sep 3rd at Tennessee - 7 PM CST
So we can rule those dates out

College football is starting soon, I don't know who everyone follows but I'd assume there's a fair amount of interest on this board in the Badgers.

Badgers' first game:

Sat, Sep 5th vs NIU - 7 PM CST
being a UW student that means I'm going to be drunk from 7 AM until well into the game which won't end until 10 PM or later

NFL Season kicks off Thu, Sep 10th and I assume no one wants the draft to be after the season starts.

Personally, I work this coming Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (Aug 27-31) but after that I'm done lifeguarding.

Sunday the 7th would be the date that would work best for me considering people have to work during the week and those dates would be hard for them.

Didn't have any problems with today either. I asume that the draft won't last 5 hours, so there's really no problem if you ask me.

Z2C is just ruining my life. And yours.

I'm with keys. I scrapped plans to go to a beach party today and I also missed out on seeing a movie with my roommates. Now I'm sitting alone in my room with nothing to do. Plus next week I won't be able to do it, I'm out of town visiting friends and family.

This is bogus, I was really hoping to do this today I planned my life around it. @!@&*

I am in shame. Why didn't all tell me that?!

Ugh, I'm not saying it's your guys fault... it was mine.\

Excuse me as I mope at the fact I'm bad at timing. Again... ugh... I hope you all can forgive me. Please try, I know I wouldn't be able too.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (31m) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (8h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (8h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (8h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (8h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (9h) : Who? What?

beast (18h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (22h) : 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?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
