Don't know if anyone has posted this yet ( I don't see it) but apparently the Packers worked out Levi Jones. I for one am glad that they recognize they have a problem and are at least considering bringing in some help. Here's the link...

Does that mean Clifton's days in Green Bay may be numbered? That would make me happy. I'm going to have to pull up some video on Levi Jones and see what he looks like.

Read this at another forum. I don't know anything about offensive lineman so I'm not familiar with the name lol

Sure would be nice to see Jones come in. I'm guessing they would project him to RT although he's played LT. None the less, the fact that they're at least looking shows they know they have a problem. That's a good sign considering how stubborn this regime has been.

Weren't people on this forum saying how bad he was when he was released by the Bengals earlier this year?

Why not just try him at RT? Makes the most sense. I feel that Barbre can't play at this level and appears to be our biggest place in need of replacement ASAP.

The best news I have heard all day. I'm not excited about the player as much as what this means... Ted is willing to change look at veteran options to shore up the weak spot on our roster.

1. We need some more experience on our o-line.
2. A solid #3 tackle.

I wonder about his conditioning. If he's been a FA since May, why hasn't anyone else brought him in???

He's got to be an upgrade.

No one can be worse than Barbre.... except Giacomini... 🙂

Thanks rabid, I was thinking the same thing.

I didn't want him at that time. Now? I'm willing to try out any freaking Veteran at T! lol

Thank you (+1 I was going to reference the same thread).. yes he would be easily an upgrade over any of the choices we have beyond Clifton at this point.. although I think in the not to distant future Lang will ready.

Levi has the ability to play both sides, another player coming off injury but can play in this league and has at times played well.

Amazing what a couple months will do for perspective of a forum eh. 😉

I wouldn't mind bringing him in. Only concern seems that the only position he has played is LT. Can he do RT?

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

beast (20h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (20h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (20h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (20h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (20h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (20h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

Zero2Cool (20h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (22h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (23h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (23h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (23h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (23h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.
