Honestly never saw him as anything more than a David Martin at BEST with Tyrone Davis 2.0 being more likely.

Good luck and good riddance, hope you can do your job better on the next team you play for.

Congratulations to all of you who can now use Bostic as an excuse for the next 10 years.

Even if that play never occurs he was probably not gonna be back.

UDFA that got his shot with The Packers and didn't. Meet the expectations of The coaches.

NOT one Of you know if Bostic will or will not continue his career with another team.

I hope he gets another chance somewhere and makes the most if it.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

He was primarily brought in to become the next Jermichael Finley and once he became injured that ruined those plans.

If you can't perform enough to take snaps away from Quarless, you are not going to be sticking around long as a TE on this team.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Brandon BOSTICK, I give him a lot of respect for being one of the few who stayed late answering every media person question asked. He didn't run, he didn't hide, he owned it. He admitted he made a mistake and no one is disputing that.

What people are jumping his case about is not the onside kick bobble but rather his few years here without taking the next step. No, he never wanted to be Finley, nor was he expected to. Those were things WE said due to his size and athleticism.

Looks like Dorsey is gone too. Sucks for him it seems like he's got the same recurring foot injury. Gotta hate seeing an injury never really give a guy a shot to make it.

looks like they cleared a little over a million in cap space by cutting these two. Most likely to be replaced by cheaper rookies so they gained a little.

Now hey can sign Cobb, Bulaga and Suh

I also give props to Bostick for owning up to his mistakes.
That takes real character. If he had that level of talent to go with it, he'd be something.
He's a so so player, but nothing special.
I wish he would have worked out.

My issue with Bostick is he had 2 receptions all year. This tells me his main job was special teams. To complete screw up an assignment at this level on your main job is just mind blowing.

I am not pinning the loss on Bostick (I blame McCarthy and Slocum), but seriously the lack of focus is astonishing in such a big game. How many plays in the play book does he have to work on? You'd figure they would practice this situation every practice that it should be a natural reaction, yet it wasn't.

dfosterf (7m) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (9m) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (4h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (7h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (8h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (9h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (9h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (11h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : 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 (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.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
