I guess they figure Don Jackson isn't ready. Or maybe it's the too much speed thing.

Knile Davis

Oh shit, let's do this!

So a possible 7th round pick two years from now. I wonder how likely it is that the Chiefs get that pick.

A source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the pick is a conditional seventh-rounder in 2018.

Shields is good but not great, obviously we can use him right about now! Sucks to see him out for a long period but I hope it's not life / career threatening cause the game ain't worth it!

Who else misses the CB tandem with Woodson - Williams?

Can someone educate me a little bit? I'm too lazy to ask Dr. Google right now. How the heck does it take so long to come back from this brain injury? I can't imagine how many players largely played through these things in the past.

I guess what I don't understand is why they decided to wait so long on this. I don't understand concussions so maybe it is just my ignorance as to how long it takes to get better.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if he is designated to return do we not still get to add a replacement to the starting lineup?

There is no designated to return anymore. You can simply bring back one player that was placed on IR (that was on your opening day 53) after 8 weeks.

But somewhere there is an article that makes it sound like the Packers are planning on putting RB Don Jackson on the main roster today... but they'll have to fine room by releasing or IRing someone before they do that.

TheKanataThrilla (11h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (12h) : 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 (12h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (12h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (13h) : 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 (13h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (13h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (13h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (13h) : 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 (14h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (15h) : 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 (15h) : 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 (16h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (16h) : 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 (16h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (16h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (16h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (18h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (20h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (20h) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (20h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (20h) : 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

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

wpr (26-Aug) : He played pretty good.

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : 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
