We played Man coverage far more than Zone. Gunter was pretty much in Man coverage against OBJ in the Giants game, Dez in the Dallas Game and Julio in the Atlanta game. Ha-Ha and Burnett as well as LBers were usually in zones, nickel and dime backs varied between playing zone and man when they were on the field.

I find it funny that when our WR get open it is because of how good they are, when other WR do it against us it is because how bad our guys are.

We need some veteran help on defense. And not some "over the hill" guys. Some REAL playmakers. The draft gets you unproven youngsters, that usually take at least a few years to develope. We need proven leadership NOW.
Our O can score points, but our D can't stop any really good teams.
Ted needs to "get er done" RIGHT NOW, or we will just see more of the "same old same old" garbage.
Brady had been to SEVEN Super Bowls since he came into the league in 2001.
We have had 25 years of HOF QB's, and have only 3 SB apperances. That's wasted talent. And it has to be on the heads of the GM and hos underlings.

The positive side - he is familiar with Dom's defense. Also might consider a smaller contract after being cut (from Cleveland of all places.) He was a solid corner when he played in GB, maybe he has a few good years left in him. I can't imagine him being any worse than the rest of our corners not named Shields.

If he still has something in the tank, is better than Goodson and willing to play for vet minimum then sign him ASAP!

He might of been able to complete with Randall for a starting spot at the end of the season, even if he has declined.

Theres a reason we let Tramon walk away in the first place. Him getting two years older makes him even less appealing. If you are looking for a free agent corner, go for someone like Gilmore or Logan Ryan.

The Packers should do whatever they can to draft Dalvin Cook this year. If we have to give up picks to trade up, I'm all for it. He can step in day one and be the game changer that this team has been missing for years. I'm tired of accumulating all these picks that turn out to be projects.

My first thought on Tramon when I saw this was no way, Ted released him for a reason.

Cost might have been the main reason.

Tramon switched to safety this past season, missed quite a few games due to injury.

Wouldn't hurt to invite him to camp.
Get him in at Vet minimum, you never know he might surprise everyone and still have something left.

Sounds like Shields will be gone, Tramon could be that veteran leader to help all these young guys out.

Never say Never....Right James Jones?

Yeah Tramon got a huge contract from the Brown's that was way to high to match.

But if Shileds is gone, then the Packers could use another good vet CB in case Randall and Rollins aren't able to have a bounce back year like Nelson and Adams did at WR.

Hey all
I dont think the packers are that far off to be honest.

We neex areas in which to retool (cb's, pass rushers) but i think the outlook looks positive for next year.
