Re: Pettine out - New DC is...

I only supported the Packers since 2008. I went back on all former head coaches and googled all the names I didn't know and all of them showed up white. somehow I accidentally skipped over Rhodes in the process. Whoops. :thwap: Anyway my point still stands. We could and should do much more especiall...

Re: Pettine out - New DC is...

Those who are championing Wade Phillips. You do realise he has rather subtly turned down the opportunity to interview with the Packers? And do you also realise that he is 74 years old right? Being an NFL defensive coordinator is a highly demanding job which requires high energy levels and time commi...

Re: General Packers News 2020

I think we're more likely to sign Britt to replace Taylor considering we just worked him out recently. His versatility will be useful too.

Re: Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings GDT - 9/13 - 12:00 CST

Woah. :o This opportunity has been long time coming for Patrick but weakening a position of strength to fill a hole elsewhere is not something i'm a fan of. Jenkins has barely any tackle experience compared to Wagner who has played many NFL games there. Not a good endorsement for Wagner right now. ...

Re: Offensive Tackle Discussion

What? Those metrics don't fit anyone. Bakhtiari is just under 6'5" Lane Taylor is 6' 3 " Billy Turner is a hair under 6'5" (by an eighth of an inch) Elgton Jenkins is 6''4 1/2" Linsley is shorter than 6'3" Lucas Patrick is 6' 3 1/2" The guys we drafted this year: Hanse...

Re: Offensive Tackle Discussion

I don't get what we are looking for or what works in our system to be honest. At the moment the two main metric is at least 6'5" and a 40 time of less than 5.20s. Everything else is a bit all over the place. Covid hitting pro days didn't help as that would've given us more data as to what we'r...

Re: Offensive Tackle Discussion

Normally I agree with you with "outside of 3 veteran starters, we don't have a reliable tackle." but then you see tweets like this: https://twitter.com/TomSilverstein/status/1303826637398605824 Having missed much of camp on PUP, it doesn't feel you much confidence with our depth. Like you ...

Offensive Tackle Discussion

Since the opening of free agency right to the 53 roster cutdown we have parted ways with many backup offensive tackles: Spriggs, Madison, Bruffy, Leglue, Conway and Light. We also appear to have focused in the draft by adding depth on the interior OL by drafting Stepaniak, Hanson and Runyan. We have...

Re: Packers Sign Daylon Mack to Active Roster

I'm glad we picked him up. Judging from limited highlight videos the upside is clearly there. Completely up to him in terms of motivation and dedication. I would be gutted if we cut him 2 weeks later as it would mean we have failed to upgrade over Lancaster and our run defence. The Packers are usual...

Re: Packers Roster Cut Downs

16 practice squad players per team. The waiver wire is going to be absolutely diluted of talent. There won't be anyone worth their salt left lying around to sign up to the main roster during the season. As a result I think we are going to see very little waiver activity with the bulk of movement bet...

Re: Packers Roster Cut Downs

Martin, Ento, Turner, Greene, Burks, M.Adams, Ramsey all are carry injuries of varying severity.

IR candidates is probably Martin and Ento. That will free up roster spots for two more players.

Re: Packers Roster Cut Downs

I'll say as a reminder: with the new IR rules (only 3 weeks before they can come back, unlimited comebacks) there's a good chance in the bet day or two Kamal Martin goes on IR and POSSIBLY guys like M. Adams and B. Turner, as well. So some guys may be coming right back up for the time being. Are yo...

Re: Packers Roster Cut Downs

Over the past few days at the back of my mind I thought there was a good chance we would keep only 5 WRs. So far It appears to be the case. All the WR cuts were not a surprise for me. The ones I expected to remain did except Malik Taylor. Based on tweets I thought Malik Turner was ahead of him in th...

Re: 2020 UDFA Signings

It makes sense that the supplemental draft will only be for seniors only plus any guys who would normally qualify for the supplemental draft in a normal covid19 free year. As for the UDFA numbers, It normally looks alot bigger but because of covid19 there are no minicamps therefore no tryouts opport...

Re: 2020 General Draft Discussion

I think the Packers would've been happy with any one of Jefferson, Reagor, Murray, Aiyuk and Ruiz. One by one they quickly went. We had no shot at landing them. Even trading up was too costly, for example: The Chargers gave up a 2nd and 3rd to move up to pick 23 to land Murray (now that I think abou...

Re: Round 3 (94) - Josiah Deguara, TE Cincinnati

I saw his nfl.com draft profile and he is compared to Tyler Conklin who was taken in the 5th round. But what about his Minnesota teammate, Irv Smith Jr? They're practically identical in terms of measurables and metric. He was taken in the 2nd round. So from a talent level perspective Degaura is clos...

Re: Round 6 (192) - Jon Runyan, IOL Michigan

Most though Bulaga would move to the left side after Clifton retired, but that never happened, because the Sitton-Bulaga right side was so strong. My memory is different. Bulaga was supposed to be the left tackle after Clifton retired, even switched Sitton and Lang around so that Sitton would be ne...

Re: Round 6 (208) - Jake Hanson, OC Oregon

I just used my stopwatch on Hanson and he indeed ran about 5.30 to 5.35. :idn: Still a notch slower than we would like to see in an OL but not a deal breaker. That time makes me feel a little better about him. Yeah, if you and Gutey agree that it's close to a 5.3 than a 5.5, I'll take it... and put...
