And I use the news feature at times.. just in this case, I didn't want the context that feature would have pulled back.. I only wanted to focus on this segment of the post.

Why?

Because it is the type of attitude this defense needs.. a couple of ass kickers in place of a couple wannabee pretty boys showing up in commercials for their hair or riding off the glory boy's gig.

As for Sam. He's not a QB so not worth the keystrokes! 😛

Story of every training camp under this group.. guys out of the late rounds and UDFA's get their fair shot at a roster spot.. and at times playing a role on Sunday in securing wins. Or losses.

I love a LBer who can bring a little thunder. I have to enjoy it while I can. It won't be long before the NFL in their fear of litigation creates a rule to remove any hits from the game.

Sure the guy is raw, but he has certainly flashed enough already to warrant a roster spot. He has a chance to develop into a great player. This year will be full of growing pains, but I expect that of most rookies.

speaking of coverage linebackers ... what happened to our best one that we've had in awhile ... Brandon chillar? ... he could at least cover WR and TEs decently - is brad jones really that much better then him?

And yes, I do believe Jones is better. Much smoother.

As for Barrington, maybe he'll prove me wrong. He definitely brings 'tude to the defense, which is much needed. And after all, if we can get to the QB, he won't have to cover for major distances. None of the guys will.

One year and three special-teams tackles later, he hasn't flinched.

"I'm not going to back off that statement," Manning said. "I definitely feel that I can be the best linebacker in the draft."

Better than Luke Kuechly, better than Dont'a Hightower, better than Zach Brown.

Manning. If he can cover, he might have a chance at this.

dfosterf (1h) : It is the title of a you tube video.

dfosterf (1h) : I'm not assuming anything

beast (7h) : If they aren't doing it, then why are you assuming they know how to do it?

dfosterf (12h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (12h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (12h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (17h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (20h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (21h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (21h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (22h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (22h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

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.
