I like Harrell... but I guess I want a guy I feel has more upside. PS is for to take chances with a guy with good potential but not NFL ready. If everything went perfect for Harrell he'll be what? The next Jeff Garica? That's not bad at all... but in my mind someone with Tom Brady potential just seems like more worth taking a risk on.

Don't get me wrong potential doesn't mean much... other than in the draft... but a guy like say QB Kevin O'Connell has TONS of potential if Mike McCarthy can fix what ever his problem is (which I don't know what it is and yes I know some problems you just can't fix). But I think he's problem is mental and footwork (because he has all the physical talent (at least he did in the draft)). Mike McCarthy may not be able to fix the mental but the footwork he can fix and the mental problems may become fixable when the footwork is fixed.

But Mike McCarthy school might be just what he needs to upstart his career again.

Yeah, ideally by the time we need a new starting QB Harrell will be near the end of his playing years. However, the huge upside here is that if we can keep developing him, we can either trade him or Flynn for a lot more than we'd get for him now.

My point was a guy like QB Kevin O'Connell has more potential than Harrell and if MM could develop O'Connell they'd get a higher draft pick than they would of Harrell.

Thing is though, since McCarthy came in, how many QBs have been poached off our PS?

The only one I can think of is Brohm, but then it's because he's a 2nd rounder with (some semblance of) potential.

There was another one other than Borhm as well... but I can't remember his name.

And there was that guy Thompson draft that later got cut.... he picked up a couple other places. I'm not sure if was ever on the practice squad or not...

so basically 3?

Flynn gets traded to the Cardinals for a 3rd round pick before cut down's and we keep Graham Harrell!

It would be amusing -- though perhaps a little terrifying -- if Matt Leinart came to town to back up Aaron Rodgers.

dfosterf (18h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (18h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (18h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (23h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (23h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (28-Aug) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (28-Aug) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
