Wouldn't mind a T. We are going to need a backup regardless for Lang now. I don't want to hear more about trading Kampman. I would look towards maybe James Jones or something. That is at least a position we can afford to lose a player at.

With Tauscher on the roster, we're back to 3 tackles, counting in Barbre. I don't think either Tauscher or Barbre can play LT, but we could go and gamble with only Lang there and starting with the musical chairs if he goes down.

I don't hope so, but I wouldn't be that surprised.

I hate Joe. He always gets me excited. But he kind of flopped a bit on his Kampman for Long trade. You can't say that the Rams are in rebuilding mode as to why they'd dump Steven Jackson due to his age, but yet they'd want Kampman who is in his late 20's, almost 30, right? So why would they want Kampman?

Anyhow, the Jackson idea got me stiff. I'd like him here. I just don't see us making any worthwhile trade. I seriously believe that the Packers staff over estimates their own talent and own ability to develop talent.

I hope we either get Peppers / Jackson / Long or Merriman but let's be honest what are the chances. We've got Ted Thompsonat the helm that has a draft love.

When's the last time the Packers actually made a big trade that we actually got someone good? Was it Al Harris?

Ryan Grant. Although he exploded onto the scene here, so I don't think that that fits what you're going for.

The last decently big named guy we got was indeed Al Harris. Our 2nd for their 4th and Al. Pretty good trade if you ask me.

Before saying that he won't pull off any trades, though, look at last year. Even this article states it. We had a 3rd in for Gonzalez. The asking price for the entire season. In the last 10 minutes, though, they upped it to a 2nd. With Finley just drafted, I don't think that was worth it.

I don't think that he'd ever pull off a trade like the Jay Cutler one, but I think that he would do something like a 2nd for Merriman. Even though everyone knows that Ted Thompson never trades for players or trades up in the draft...

Merriman isnt showing much this year - looks like he used to be good and he is only appearing average so far. I hope the pack doesnt go for him.

"Rockmolder" wrote:

We wouldn't get Merriman for a 2nd if he was producing on a top level. I'd take the gamble and hope that he gets that explosive first step back sometime soon. It's not long ago that he went down with that horrible injury. Not in recovery time, that is. The only problem I have with him are character problems, but I think that our locker room will take care of that in a good way. There won't be a rift, either.

As to Pack93, I would like Huff here, as well. He actually appears to show some of that talent, which should up the price a little. I wouldn't mind taking the gamble, give them a 3rd/4th and get Huff on the team. Only problem is that this is a risky pick for a player who hasn't proven anything. I think I hear people calling Dhazer, DD80 and Dh already.

I'm not that sold on getting Bush. He's a good back, but I don't think he'd offer us a lot more, if anything, than Grant.

So, with Clifton out yet again and looking like he might as well call it a career (I know, early conclusion for a very good pass blocker, but his body is just failing him), a trade for a tackle seems more likely than ever.

Still not that likely, but the odds are better than before. Especially if Clifton is done for another long period (Has the same ankle injury).

I'm still going with picking up some young, no name FA, but one can dream.

I'd cry tears of joy if we could somehow land Joe Thomas. but, no f'ing way that's going to happen.

if any of these rumors are actually legit rumors, I think the most likely to happen would be with the Raiders. Al Davis loves trading his guys away, and usually for relatively low-ish draft picks.

Chiefs and Raiders apparently are holding whole sale trade requests.
Raiders - Nnamdi - no trade
Chiefs - Cassel - no trade

Everyone else, available for the right price.

I wouldn't mind trying for McFadden.

I think McFadden is going to be a big bust or is. Can't run through arm tackles. If you get him the ball in space, he's amazing, but so are a lot of fast guys. In the NFL, rarely do you go untouched.

I'd talk to the Raiders about Michael Bush though. He would be a great fit IMO.
He's good in the zone blocking scheme. Hard to bring down and probably faster than Grant despite his size.

beast (9h) : 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

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
