When they got Preston, he seemed to be a player on the way down. The Bills and their fans were not happy with him at all. So I couldn't figure out why the Packers acquired him in the first place.

It looks like the O-line is shaping up pretty well now with the starting five plus Wells (unless he's traded), Giacomini, Lang, and...well, they need at least one more good backup. Meredith is probably more of a practice squad guy, and I've never been crazy about Moll. But I suppose one of those two will probably make the roster.

Meredith wouldn't last long on our practice squad. My guess is that Meredith mysteriously goes on the IR to protect him from other teams and Moll makes the roster.

I agree - meredith was a 3rd round pick that we got a steal on in the 5th round ... he's a bit rusty but IMO should do well as a backup and then potential starter in the future.

and he's #69 😉

I'm afraid that that'll happen as well. Maybe that's McCarthy's way of getting the fans behind our current O-line, as we can't really call for the back-up to be brought in if that back-up is Moll.

Or some people here hve to like the color yellow here a whole lot.
