Remind me, when do pads go on?

Sounds like two of the four were making plays by simple chasing down a QB when unblocked on a bootleg... not exactly complex... more like running the 40 I'm your underwear at the combine.

But lots of good reports on Toure lately and good to hear that so far Wicks drops issues aren't showing up.

The Packers don't exactly have the best group of starting OL in the NFL... in fact, some of them (Newman, Hanson) out right sucked... so yeah, if he struggled against the backup he'd be in deep trouble...

Just off the top of my head right now, I'm struggling to think of the OTs after Bakhtiari, Tom and Nijman...

Aw, they're starting to come back to me... Walker from Penn State? And Jones whom is huge, a number of the undrafted ones are huge. 

I want to hear about Van Ness vs Tom and Nijman...

Van Ness pure power vs Tom's lack of power but great technic and athletic ability might be interesting... because it's strength vs weakness, I think you have to give the edge to Van Ness, but that might seriously help Tom improve against it, and force Van Ness to improve techniques other than just the bull rush.

Van Ness pure power vs Nijman's great size, but lack of desire to dominate, and not the best quickness also might be great in a battle of the bosses, and great arm lengths. I would give it to Van Ness, just because he wants it more, where Nijman seems to be much more willing to settle for draws and partial wins.


Just to be clear, I have compared Tom to Bakhtiari and think Tom has great ability, but like Bakhtiari, Tom's weakness is pure power and Van Ness game is about pure bull rush power and arm length. Van Ness should be able to challenge our OTs, as his strengths are our best OTs weaknesses.

Now if Van Ness is beating them with something other than a bull rush, or pure power move, that could be impressive or other teams starters that are better at dealing with pure power.

I don't think they ever allow pads until training camp. Maybe they do in minicamp? I can't say for sure.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.
dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.
beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot
beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.
Martha Careful (27-Apr) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Shough is the guy who missed guys at combine isn't he?
beast (27-Apr) : It's not official until I'm dead! I have a chance still! (Not really)
