Breno Giacomini to Practice Squad?

I've heard a rumor about this and after checking some things out, I think it may very well happen. First of all, we only have 7 PS spots filled. Harrell will probably return from PUP. We need to clear a roster spot for him. What better way than to send an him, an unproven player, to the practice squad, since I doubt we'll be sending Lansanah back. What other players eligible do we have to send there?

If Sitton is healthy... cut Moll?

To me, Giacomini has "gamer" written all over him. You know... the kind of player that underwhelms in practice - and then plays lights out when it's for real. Unfortunately, that kind of player usually won't win a training camp comptition. They don't claw their way to the top of the depth chart - but once they get there they're awfully hard to unseat.

I'm not wishing for any more injuries, but I'd love to see him get some meaningful playing time. I really think he's got the talent and attitude to take over for Tauscher some day.

I prefer Sitton because he rocked in camp and he's a tough b@st@rd.

I don't know enough about Breno to argue for or against him. I'm sure we could keep him on the PS once Harrell get back.

Moll is a huge security blanket at T.

Cliffy has been injured, and so has Taush. Granted Colledge can shift to LT, but what if Taush goes down too? I'd much rather have Moll backing up at the T spots than Giacomini.

Remember, the PS spot is empty so I'm pretty sure someone will be sent there rather than someone being cut.

I don't think you can simply put a player from your active roster to the PS. You have to cut the player from the 53 man roster, and if he is eligible for the PS than you can try to sign him to it then.

Athletic young big men are always popular in the NFL. I think it's safe to say Breno would have a couple of offers from other teams for at least their PS. No guarantee Breno decides to join the Packers' PS, out of loyalty or something.

You are 4 hours ahead of me my man. That is the point exactly. Brreno is in Ted's long term plans. If he tries to put him on the PS he most likely would be picked up by some team some where. By this time in the season there is a need for a 2nd string OT by one of the other 31 teams.

beast (14h) : I was kind of hoping Douglas might come back to the Pack

beast (14h) : My question is how much do we trust Jenkins? In bad weather, he seemed to struggle a bit with ball control snapping, though he started at OG

beast (14h) : Well Jenkins probably knows he's not getting that 2026 salary number without a new contact... so just trying to get the new contact early

Zero2Cool (19h) : CB Rasul Douglas is visiting the #Seahawks today, per source.

dfosterf (22h) : He's a switch and baiter. Its the same as a bait and switcher except he agreed to the switch first lol

dfosterf (22h) : 6.8 mil raise next year. Those are existing contract numbers

dfosterf (22h) : 12.8 plus 4.8 pro rata signing bonus is 17.6 mil. Top center in the league at 18

Zero2Cool (22h) : Elgton Jenkins wants to rework contract ahead of position change to center

Zero2Cool (13-May) : 🏈Monday, Nov. 10: Eagles at Packers

buckeyepackfan (12-May) : Packers @ Bears week 16(Saturday Game)

Zero2Cool (12-May) : Clifford hasn't been the same since losing 8

dfosterf (12-May) : Sean Clifford would probably disagree

dfosterf (12-May) : Canuck Cannon. Got a very good feeling about this

Zero2Cool (12-May) : Tom Pelissero also reports what bboy stated

bboystyle (12-May) : The Green Bay Packers on Monday signed Taylor Elgersma, the Canadian-born quarterback who tried out at the team’s rookie camp last weekend

beast (12-May) : There were reports four days ago that the Packers were signing QB Taylor Elgersma, but no official action since

Zero2Cool (12-May) : And for Ian Rapoport to announce Saints send 1st and 2nd rounder to Packers for Malik Willis.

dfosterf (12-May) : *Elgersma*

dfosterf (12-May) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB

Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.

dfosterf (11-May) : Fortunately it doesn't sound like a big deal

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Derek Carr retires. Shoulder must be bad.

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Packers Pro Shop is not currently printing Golden #22 jerseys “until his number is confirmed after Training Camp.”

greengold (9-May) : My impression is he's a Peruvian soccer fan not a bares fan.

Martha Careful (9-May) : Favored Illinois Bishop?

beast (9-May) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?

dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

beast (7-May) : Supposedly Steelers will be trading WR George Pickens to the Cowboys for a 3rd and late round pick swap

Zero2Cool (5-May) : Ravens release Justin Tucker, err D. Watson Jr?

Zero2Cool (5-May) : Cardinals have signed TE Josiah Deguara.

Zero2Cool (5-May) : If I were to "Google" it, then I wouldn't read it in your words.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition
