    Julius Jones released after Lynch signed

    It's well documented that Thompson isn't very aggressive when it comes to free agency and trades. He's not one for bidding and counter-offers. It's not just message board banter when any packer reporter worth his weight in cheese will tell you that's not Thompson's ball game.

    OFFICIAL THREAD We need a running back now !!!!!

    First, we don't know if the packers were offered a fourth rounder. It's very likely the Bills would have wanted more from the packers as they have an obvious need there. Also, maybe Green Bay wasn't given a counter offer. That said a fourth didn't seem like much. I haven't seen Lynch's contract...

    Julius Jones released after Lynch signed

    Everything I have heard indicates he's washed up. Better off searching for an unheard of steal off someone's roster. Could still be Nance or Starks.

    OFFICIAL THREAD We need a running back now !!!!!

    They could be bringing Nance along slow like they did with Grant in 2007. Grant played for GB in week 2 but didn't break out until Mid season against Denver. Nance doesn't need to be Grant. Starks may also provide some relief after he comes off the PUP list. Sure they could still bring in an...

    Packers Season Outlook

    I would take it one week at a time. If Bigby can stay healthy, I am not worried about safety. Peprah has improved significantly since 2008. Though I don't like him starting the rest of the year, I like him as a depth player when Bigby gets back. As far as the running situation goes, Nance/Starks...

    Marshawn Lynch for AJ Hawk trade RUMOR---coming from a Bills site, opinions?

    First reaction: if it smells like a rumor...It more than likely is a rumor For discussions sake, here's my two sense Reasons this trade makes sense: -Supposedly Thompson really wanted Lynch in the 2007 draft and have attributed the head-scratching pick in Harrell in part because they could...

    WOW now this is a homer

    Chicago has a significantly better chance of winning against the VIkings than green bay? No. He's using selective reasoning to live out a fantasy. If you consider each game in isolation, the vikings can win every game on their schedule-- but there are about 10 teams in the league that you could...

    OPINIONS: 12X Champions or 3X Super Bowl Champions

    History It's a testament to the team's history of success. The championships during the 60s might be the best Dynasty in the history of the NFL. There are plenty of teams that have been around as long as green bay (not nearly as many today), and not a single one has won more championships than...

    Trade w. NYG

    Dallas is also a candidate. Like I've said other times, Thompson is more likely to make to trade for a player that has everyone scratching their head.

    Mark Chmura Calls Jermichael Finley 'a Moron'

    I don't see how the fact that it came up while Chmura was doing his job really helps his cause. Sure it's not as bad as him making a press release about it. You can commend his honesty all you want, but that doesn't mean there weren't ulterior motives behind his statement-- like profit and...

    Brett Favre finally makes up his mind

    Does this mean we'll start to see more from Harvin, Rice and Peterson in camp? And all is well again in Dinkytown.

    Make or Break season for Flynn?

    That was the main point of the thread.

    What's your opinion of Ryan Grant?

    How do you post a thread? How do you post a thread? I can't seem to find it.

    What's your opinion of Ryan Grant?

    I think there's a lot of people who agree with you. He's probably the most underrated RB in the league. He's incredibly consistent and fundamentally sound (high ave per carry, total yards, like you said no fumbles). And he does it all with a lot less talent than the average elite RB. That's the...

    Sam Shields

    Really? Thanks for clarifying. He's been consistently shaky in practice on PR/KR. Yes, I am surprised he was first on the depth chart. Why have him return a 3rd, 4th, and a 5th time when he botched the first two.
