That sounds right to me, with Newhouse possibly being a backup again if they draft a tackle in the early rounds.

Newhouse hasn't been activated all year...anyone hear anything on how he has looked in practice as season progressed?

Where do you guys see this guy playing after Clifton retires? I really don't mind him right where he is. He did a pretty good job on Tuck today. Tuck got a few pressures, but for the most part was stalemated. It probably helps playing next to Sitton, who quite frankly is a beast. And nice job Josh having Driver's back today.

I'd love to see the Packers land Carimi in the draft, but I don't think they will be in the position to nab him, without trading up.

Carimi would most likely be there with our position in the draft, especailly if we don't make the playoffs, Carimi isnt getting that much credit these days because of suspect pass blocking at times. Winning the Outland trophy will help his stock though and I think he will be a good RT in the league

For what it is worth:

The Packers post practice videos occasionally throughout the season of the team practicing. You get to see different groups of players practicing.

Last video posted from a practice (Dec. 1) shows the O-line group doing some drills. During Training Camp, Greg Bedard posted some videos and provided some commentary on what to look during these drills (how low the linemen were in their stance, their punching, their feet movement, etc.)

You can see the o-linemen running through a drill twice, and from it you can see Newhouse clearly having good feet movement and having a decent stance.

Take from that what you will. I have to say, though, that Sitton almost always sets the standard to compare everyone else to because he excels in almost all those areas during the videos. Probably the lowest stance, best feet movement, and amongst the best use of hands of any O-linemen on our team. Probably not surprising considering he is our best O-linemen.

From the videos, at least, Newhouse looks to have the physical tools you can work with. Ted also recently called him "very, very smart" so that is good, I guess. Other than that, it is difficult to judge his growth until he sees some action in games.

Also, I'd keep an eye out for Nick McDonald.

I don't think I've ever heard MM talk about a player's prospects the way he has about McDonald.

Here is what he said:

"That kid's going to be a good player. I think Nick McDonald will be on my team for a long time. I think that kid's coming fast.

McCarthy on McDonald's position: "Center, or even a guard. He's a square, tough (expletive). Smart. Has good feet.

Those guys coming from small schools, it just takes them a little longer to get over that hurdle. Once they do, man . . . you never have enough of those guys."

I hope McCarthy is right about McDonald, but I won't hold my breath. Thus far not a single one of these project-type O-linemen has panned out for the Packers. Our O-linemen have either become legitimate starters in their first or second year or they've never amounted to anything.

I personally felt Tuck schooled Bryan Bulaga. Aaron Rodgers just made it look too easy out there for anyone to notice.

Bulaga is a LT prospect, but he is not a great LT prospect. He is a Chad Clifton like a little bit. He doesn't have the tenacity of Clifton in my opinion.

If the Packers can land a great LT prospect in the draft, they shouldn't blink an eye. At the same time, they shouldn't blink about moving Bulaga to LT to replace Clifton either. He's had his ups and downs. I think more ups than downs though.

He is a rookie. You should lower your expectations of him being a primetime tackle right away.
