This just in The Green Bay Packers have signed Paul Hourning to a year contract.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

yw people act like this is a big deal signing an old injury riddled rb to a contract. Should i be jumping up and down for this move by TT, look what he has done signed 2 old injury prone packers to the team, Super Bowl here we come. But just think with the great draft class next year we can still be the youngest team.

lol ... I had about four comments that owned the throne previously today, so yes I'm happy! :P

I don't think anyone should be jumping for joy, or slamming their head against a wall either. This move doesn't do much but what I've said about six times in this thread already.

It's nothing to jump for joy over.
It's nothing to be wound up over.
It just is what it is. Nothing special.

Although, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to see him on his first play. Not that I think he'll bust it, but just to see it ... Green wearing his RB coachs number 34 ... yes baby!!

This "youngest team in the league" idea is so overblown. Yes, our 53-man roster in aggregate is the youngest in the league, but our core of starters is 9th oldest in the league, if I'm not mistaken. Or it was at the beginning of the season, anyway. We had a thread on this topic a month or so ago.

I don't think the Packers brought Ahman back for the running game but for his blocking abilities. He was a good blocker in the good days when he was with the packers. But, I don't like this move at all, I'd rather have Dominic Rhodes on our team than Green. Let's see if he can teach Ryan Grant how to run the football and not just fall down when some lays a pinkie on him.

Bingo....

This was clearly a move based on blocking and receiving skills. If the Packers were looking for a player to run in between the tackles, Kregg Lumpkin would've been promoted from the practice squad.

Grant isn't much of a third down back nor much of a receiver and Jackson has always been a work in progress with his blocking. Like it or not, that was a weakness. I personally like the move. Nobody out there is going to solve the Packers' running game problems, but blocking is a whole different story. The Packers looked at a key area which is 3rd down, receiving, and blocking and they upgraded. Nothing wrong with that.

Yep. Put this in context - McCarthy's been revisiting early '07 lately with more short, quick passes - Green is a great screen guy - Green's also good pass blocker. It makes sense. no, it isn't a tackle or some big name like Jackson, but I think we as fans are going to have to accept that Thompson just doesn't do that much.

I'd rank this with the Chillar pickup - he's got skills they can use, and unlike with Chillar the unit as a whole isn't that far off course.

If Ahman asked for it, he should. Or I would if I were Kuhn.

Have you seriously even read any thread about Green? The only people making a big deal about it are people complaining about it. Complaining about the signing of a 3rd string running back. I mean who cares?

How dense are you seriously? Who are you talking about when you say "people act like this is a big deal" Who the fuck is jumping up and down for this move and also expecting you or anyone else to? Because I haven't seen anybody claim that this is some sort of huge signing.
