Not to get off topic.

I am curious when a wr drafted by The Packers that was cut didn't end up on The Packers practice squad?

Davis is a 5th round pick.

Most teams would rather sign their players to their practice squad at the beginning of the year

The 7 all stay healthy, I'm betting Davis will be the last cut and will clear waivers then signed by The Packers to the practice squad.

Once he is there The Packers can pay him whatever it takes not to jump to another team.
Still not convinced Ty Montgomery will be ready for opening day.

These things always seem to work themselves out.

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

I think the Packers will think about keeping 7 WRs, but when it comes down to it... unless they can offer enough ST value then the numbers probably don't add up... of course Janis ST skills and the returning skills... but some others will need to be able to step up and play TE/FB role on STs as well which I just don't see.

If everyone is fully healthy, then I see Davis as the 7th guy as the others (should) know all the routes and what they're doing already (other than maybe Monty, but he has too much potential talent to straight cut).

I know you've been saying it is impossible that the Green Bay Packers keep seven wide receivers. I think it is possible and wouldn't be surprised to see it happen. I just don't know how anyone can say a team that kept 5 TE's is impossible to keep 7 WR's especially after what happened last season to the WR group. I think it is a possibility.

Keep all seven, and throw in some 5 wide out formations. Can you imagine sending a few of them in motion and getting Jordy on a 4th or 5th DB. I like the speed of Davis and Janis. Out of the 7, my least favorite is Adams.

Abby's a great route runner though. Mike values that. Aaron too.

Then again, they probly won't PS Davis, because of his speed.

I think with what happened last season, keeping as many as they can would be the smart move.
But that's just me.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

TheKanataThrilla (48m) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (53m) : 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 (1h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (1h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (1h) : 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 (1h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (1h) : 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 (2h) : 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 (4h) : 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 (4h) : 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 (4h) : 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 (5h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (5h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (5h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (6h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (8h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (9h) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (9h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (9h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (15h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons

Mucky Tundra (15h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious

dfosterf (21h) : *Orzech*

dfosterf (21h) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension

Zero2Cool (22h) : Packers signed someone for three year deal

Zero2Cool (22h) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know

wpr (22h) : YES!!!!!!

Mucky Tundra (22h) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!

Zero2Cool (23h) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?

Zero2Cool (23h) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha

wpr (23h) : He played pretty good.

Zero2Cool (23h) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks

schroeder84 (26-Aug) : @dfosterf I suspect Elgersma WILL be hard to hide. Raw, but talented

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : pp.com is broken, halt testing, gotta go do work things for a bit

hardrocker950 (26-Aug) : Mecole Hardman was released, to the surprise of few

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : PP.com updated. Reset Password works, and now User Profile pages are a thing

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : Soft hope plan is having fantasy football weekly on-site that i build. cannot do that with this setup.

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It's older technology, resource hog, cannot be upgraded/changed. That's to start.

packerfanoutwest (25-Aug) : Ok, but what is wrong with this site?

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : check out packerpeople.com

Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Oh crap I missed that! I thought it was a 2026 pick

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It wasn't even next year pick, it's two years away. old dog food value

Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Yep! Everytime a team trades with Howie that team is the loser (so says the media)

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : We are hosed.
