got to say Wow really liked the things he said ... after reading that cant wait to see his play in action. Wouldnt say the same thing about our previous corners - more often then not they made me cringe.

If I had more free time, I'd be curious to see if any team re-signs more of their own retreads than Green Bay. It would make for an interesting statistical analysis project. Maybe Barfarn can run the numbers.

A lot depends on where in the process a team is. When a team starts building it is easy to draft players who contribute right away and resign because the depth of talent on the team isn't as good. the better the team is built the harder that becomes. for the long term prosperity of a team, what is important is not getting stuck with contracts for players no longer contributing which is why Ted doesn't sign a whole lot of players in their 30's.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Everyone likes to measure GB against some idealistic standard.

Here's what other fans have to look at: Seattle lost its #2 CB and their 3rd CB stinks and signed Joekel and Lacy. Dallas lost 2 guys on each the OL and DL and 4 of top 6 DBs and in response signed a Philly retread for 3 YEARS [Nolan Carroll-3 yr 10M] for Davon House money. Atl signed a KC retread [Poe for 8M].

But i digress, LOL. To answer your question, GB rarely signs its own retreads, but all other teams insist on consistently signing retreads of others. What's worse?

The proof is in the GM pudding! 8 straight PO appearances [done by only 3 teams in history]; 1 SB win, 4 more superbowl quality rosters [2011, 2014-16].

Just to clarify, by "retread" I meant a player who has departed for another team and then comes back to Green Bay. You probably understood that, but it wasn't entirely clear to me from your response.

As for your contention that the 2011 team was Super Bowl caliber, forgive me for laughing out loud. Sure, the offense was spectacular that year, but they had to be because that pathetic defense couldn't stop a nosebleed. I was bitching all year that they were going to get their asses handed to them in the playoffs. They ended up getting bitch-slapped by the Giants in one of the most dramatic choke jobs in NFL history.

Mucky Tundra (3h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (5h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (5h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 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
