Why stop with those 5? I say we take a shot at Jonathan Vilma, who will be let go by the Saints this off-season.

The more competition the better, and he only adds depth to the group.

He hasn't been the same since the Jets went from the 4-3 to the 3-4, so he has no leverage when it comes to getting an average contract.

Vilma.. he played very well for the Saints this season in a 4-3... but correct he struggled in the Jets switch to the 3-4.. he has no nature position in a 3-4.. not enough length to play outside and to light to play in the inside..

I would welcome Vilma with open arms.. but he restored some value this offseason.

BTW.. he is being included in the offseason project.

Word I see is that Vilma will be resigned. The Saints have to wait until FA starts though otherwise they have to give a 2nd rounder instead of a 3rd.

Correct, it might become a head nod type deal.. but if he tests the market he might find a better situation..

But you nailed it.. the Saints will let him walk in FA.

Are you trying to say that I am over aggressive in regards to this "corps" of linebackers..

Oh.. you haven't seen aggressive yet if you are worried.. the more footage I watch of this defense the more of a frenzy I work myself into.. :lol:

Actually.. Aaron Rouse at a backer in passing situations might make alot of sense.. needs to learn to play in traffic a little better and become a little more physical with the TE's.. but he has the tools to make a heck of an in the block pass defender type.

We do have two sixth round draft choices this year. The 2nd of the two would be ideal for taking a linebacker.

Orion Martin Va. tech maybe more of a 3-4 kinda guy...

how 'bout Jason Williams, Western Illinois

First 7 picks are reserved for things we actually have a need for.

Now now.. you know Ted.. 5th,6th, and 7th round interior lineman.. why draft them higher.. :lol:

It will frost you when Ted drafts a backer day one. :lol:

BTW.. done speaking upon our linebackers other than my part of the project.. much like the olineman earlier this year.. I think I have beaten the topic to a pulp.. maybe twice over. 😉

packerfanoutwest (1h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (8h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22h) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
