Hyde plays a great CB. Instinctive, tough, good at locating the ball and reacting, able to blitz effectively, and, a returner we can count on! He has been a great surprise addition through the last draft, with like impact upon our team as Bakhtiari and Lacy. All three, about as solid as can be for rookies. I'd rather keep Hyde at CB. He's shown very well to this point.

Besides, we've got depth at CB. We need a S who can play.

This year was predicated on Morgan playing to his abilities based on his contract and one of the other guys stepping up. Neither has happened. We got two other prospects right now to work with in Banjo and Richardson. It will be a work in progress and a better luck next year scenario. We have to play with the cards we have right now.

I think part of this reaction has to do with Burnett playing more of a SS role this year (which I think it more of a natural fit for him). Burnett had played mostly SS until Collins went down, and then they moved Burnett to FS, and didn't seem to trust others at FS.

Burnett mistakes at FS seemed to be overlooked at times with the CBs getting more of the blame, while Burnett got credit for trying to clean up the CB mess when really it was both their mess.

Mistakes at SS seem to be very more noticible as he's being asked to attack and make a play more often. And the Eagles RB makes a number of guys look silly every season and maybe even every game. And that play where the Eagles WR got the deep pass off the S/CB... that was just horrible but it's not like things like that haven't almost happened before. I remember Woodson covering someone, he had a great shot at making an INT but Collins is playing the ball and not Woodson and doesn't notice Woodson and Collins goes for the INT and basically they knock the ball away from each other and it bounced away. Now it didn't bounce directly to the WR like the Eagles one did... but the set up was very much alike.

I don't even think Burnett is having a bad year overall I think he's just had a bad couple of games these last 2. When he first came back this year it was a huge boost to the defense now the last couple weeks things just fell apart all over. If he continues the rest of the season like the last 2 games then I'll say he's got some problems but I'm not giving up on him over a couple games when he looked pretty good in all the others.

I said at the beginning of the season, i hoped this years rookies would not have to play a whole lot, giving them a chance to develope.

That all went out the window starting with game 1 when Burnette reagravated his hammy.

Jennings and House got thrown into playing where they had not praxcticed.

Now this year we have seen Banjo and Hyde play well at times and other times they have looked like what they are....rookies.

When it seemed the db's were getting it together then there went most of the starting lbr's.

This 1st half of the season has been just a little frustrating, because these guys have shown they can play, now it's to the point where everyone of them have to step up, grow up, and start being assignment sure.

Once again The Packers brass are asking players to grow up and play like 3-4 year vets.

All we can do is see what happens this week.

There's no magic fix out there, nobody available that could show up and step into a starting roll.

Ted is sticking with the draft and develope philosophy, let's hope these young guys turn it around real quick.

Zero2Cool (15m) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.
dfosterf (22m) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (27m) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (1h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (1h) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (2h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (2h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

dfosterf (5h) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (5h) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (5h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (5h) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (6h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (6h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (6h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (7h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (9h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
Zero2Cool (9h) : what is Schefter saying?
dfosterf (10h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (16h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
Mucky Tundra (16h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
Mucky Tundra (16h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious
