Great, Barfarn...just what we need. Is this the guy who turned Arguayo from high draft pick into a camp leg?

The Martell talk has to stop. Not an NFL punter.

At least this was exciting. We get so little to comment on it's nice for a change. Huge day with a 7th rounder in two years and a punter who couldn't hang in warm Tampa but will in frigid Green Bay. What B is saying makes sense. Sounds like they wanted Tim out right quick.

Forget it.

Shit, holy shit.

I'm going to say something that none of you have thought so far.

This looks to me like the Jon Ryan for Derrick Frost mistake.

Kicking in Tampa (vs Green Bay's weather), Schum's stats were worse than Masthay's:

Masthay:
44.2 ave, 40.1 net, 33.8% inside the 20, 7.4% touchback

Schum:
41.9 ave, 39.4 net, 26.8% inside the 20, 7.1% touchback

Understand changing kickers, but shouldn't the guy you replace him with be an upgrade at the position? The whole move just does not seem to make sense on the face of it.

I'm with Z2C, scares me this is going to be like Ryan / Frost.
Ted Thompson obviously did not learn any lessons about cutting your punter for someone who couldn't beat out the competition on their old team.

That Masthay was released doesn't bother me. He was too inconsistent. Loved it when he would get hang time and let the ST gunner get down there and keep the ball from going into the end zone but there wasn't enough of that.

It's kind of funny that TeddyT doesn't want to get rid of one of the 22 players he is going to release in a few days in order to keep Masthay just in case Schum fails miserably in the KC game.

I am not sure Schum is the answer. What has changed for him to make him so desirable? I doubt there has been anything new added to his approach.

In Ryan's case he got a punting coach that helped him get on track after the GB ST coach messed up his kicking style. A coach the Packers refused to let him use so they made 2 mistakes with him.

I'm sure Jake has upside we're not aware of.😕 Who cares about the numbers saying Schum is a step down? 😠

Not the person who should.

Is Mason set to miss some with a new holder?

Schum can't be the best solution for our punting situation.

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."

I'm a bit of a Ted Thompson homer, but I can't defend whatever the hell this is about.

Just from re watching his preseason punts he doesn't have a very big leg. Though it looks like he's got much better hangtime than Masthay and he seems good at getting it inside the 20. I don't see the need to make a last minute move for this guy but I don't think he's worse than Masthay from what I've seen.

Zero2Cool (23h) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (23h) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (23h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious

dfosterf (26-Aug) : *Orzech*

dfosterf (26-Aug) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Packers signed someone for three year deal

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know

wpr (26-Aug) : YES!!!!!!

Mucky Tundra (26-Aug) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha
