Bummer

The Packers are trading linebacker Reggie Gilbert to the Titans for a seventh-round draft choice, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Gilbert is recovering from a knee injury but is hopeful of being ready to play in the season opener. Gilbert, 26, played all 16 games last season. His 486 snaps on defense were 45.7 percent [more]

It's a bit of a surprise but he was buried on the depth chart. Still the 7th round pick they get next year may not fair any better.

He was on the bubble, potentially a guy they were gonna cut. Good to get some value for him if that's the case.

Would have rather gotten an ILB for him than a 7th at this point but oh well.

I felt like they were only gonna keep 4 OLBers again, just like last year and you couldn't cut any of the four ahead of Gilbert, so I was guessing either trade Fackrell or Gilbert is gone.

With a 7th round pick, we're basically just getting priority undrafted free agent (that was actually drafted).

Wonder if this means they like Markus Jones as a depth piece. He's what near 260? Might be able to play a little DE too.

Instead of having one guy you are likely to cut you have a different guy you are likely to cut although the different guy is admittedly one who plays a position you need more. I'd rather have the draft pick. Get the low end roster guy you want and not the low end roster guy someone else wants to get rid of.

Now if Gute finds a ILB he likes and someone is willing to trade him for the 7th round pick we just got that would be perfect. Obviously he wouldn't trade for a guy unless he thought he might be able to help which is pretty much what you are doing with 7th round picks anyway so if Gute likes him go for it.

beast (20h) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (22h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (22h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (22h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (22h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (22h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (22h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (22h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (22h) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (22h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (23h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (23h) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (23h) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (23h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor

Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
