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 Mike McCarthy 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.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.
