The only people who think we're loaded and deep at WR are Packers fans. If we can fleece some team that'd be great.

Abby to Pats would make most sense. BB loves dealing. Abby is the only one who makes sense to trade for both sides. He's good and someone could use him.

Would LOVE to get a 6th or 7th for Adams if I could choose who is going

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Teams will watch the waiver wire for some of our players. We will watch the waiver wire for a fatty on the Dline, and that's about all that's happening here.

I made it about three sentences through the article before I realized it was click bait speculation with no substance. Janis will learn how to do a back shoulder fade before a trade for our WRs happens. Uffda is right, this abundance of talent at WR is a product of our own wishful thinking.

One thing to keep in mind, if two teams are desperate enough are they really going to risk a cut being able to choose from 30 other teams? Gotta make a deal if you want to guarantee you're going to get the guy you want. That's why Wolf sent pick for Keith Jackson. Otherwise, Jackson would've never come to Green Bay.

I highly doubt Ted is targeting anyone who is better than a bubble roster cut, at which point you're dealing with dime-a-dozen talent that may not make the active game day each week.

I understand what you're getting at, but I don't think Ted's cross hairs are on transcendent acquisitions that would warrant the downside of a trade.

I sure hope our offense is clicking in Jacksonville, because that suddenly becomes a trap game if we don't have any rotational guys on the Dline.

Again, why Time of Possession is so important and why it's what we've been working on.

No team will trade the Packers anything for a WR not named Jordy Nelson or Randall Cobb. And even that is iffy and if you ask why, the answer is James Jones, Greg Jennings, etc ...

The offense and quarterback MAKE the receivers in Green Bay. You think the NFL doesn't know this?

NEXT!!

Let's see:

Jordy Nelson: Coming back from a very serious injury and he is 32.
Randall Cobb: He is very good if he manages to stay healthy but only plays the slot.
Dropante Adams: He is average with Rodgers, he can be really funny under David Carr or Blaine Gabbert.
Ty Montgomery: His ankle is not good yet, unproven and unhealthy.
Jeff Janis: Broken Hand, in 3 years could only learn one route.
Jared Abbrederis: He can get concussed from sun exposure, runs good routes, never give him an insurance policy.
Trevod Davis: Allegedly very fast but has shown nothing in preseason.
Geronimo Allison: Slow receiver with a funny name that runs polished routes.

And we are so loaded we could make a deal? Sorry but this is too funny.

Zero2Cool (44m) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.
Zero2Cool (45m) : HUMP DAY
beast (57m) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast
beast (58m) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?
Zero2Cool (1h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.
Zero2Cool (1h) : I could be wrong there though
Zero2Cool (1h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (3h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!
Zero2Cool (3h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there
Zero2Cool (3h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it
beast (3h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (3h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (16h) : Cowboys denied Bears request
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
