I'm with you man.

edit: I'm with you on the concern about our "other" OLB... I don't know how to feel about barnett.

From what I saw from Bishop last season I think he'll develop into starter, given some time. He is aggressive and plays with a passion, if can just generate that into onfield performance he'll be great. He just needs to learn and have more experience.

I have complete faith in Barnett at MLB, my concern is the OLB opposite Kampman.... If we dont get a good pass rusher for that spot, this defense will not be what everyone is expecting it to be.

I agree - why I really want GB to draft a OLB/DE tweener for thier 9th pick.

As far as barnett he was our best LBer IMO till his injury. And if he will be back at 100% after his rest then he'll we our starter IMO.

you guys must have forgotten what this guy can do

I'm with you Dulak. The defense underperformed and was just off all year, but Barnett is an extremely good MLB. I like the 3-man rotation of Barnett/Hawk/Bishop. Bishop on short yardage downs.

Jeremy Thompson is a 3-4 OLB. Of course he's not starting material, but a solid backup. We really need to get a new player at the spot.

This is a placeholder

I know what Barnett can do. Also I know he has a really hard time getting off of blocks from the OL and FBs, which 3-4 LBers are going to get OL and FBs on them more than 4-3 LB would.

IMO Hawk and Poppinga had better season last year even before his injury. Barnett was put in the play making spot of Sanders defense and Poppinga and Hawk kept up even thought they were in role player spots in Sanders defense.

Poppinga was considered a DE/OLB hybrid when we drafted him.

Kampman played LB in college.

Hawk was considered by a lot of people to be better suited for the 3-4, if I recall. Something about LB has more time to react in a 3-4 compared to a 4-3.

IDK about Chillar o Barnett. Barnett is a speed guy, so if we keep the other o-line off of him, he will have a great season.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
