    2023 Draft Talk

    Not going to lie, i'm pretty fundamentally against taking TEs in the first round. You can easily find good TEs in the middle rounds, and 1st round TEs almost never live up to their billing. That being said there's not many positions I would be terribly upset with us taking in the 1st round (even...

    Packers to sign Adrian Amos

    From what I've read it makes more sense to dump Perry after June 1st if the Packers are planning to do so. I could be wrong about that though

    Should the Packers look to trade HCD?

    My opinion is we shouldn't. But i'll go ahead and list the potential pros and cons that I can think of PROS: 1) It appears as if contract negotiations might not be going well. If that's true, then he'll be a FA and gone after the season. Why not see if we can squeeze some additional long term...

    Go all in, or quick "rebuild"

    Out of curiosity, is the true if we go back a couple of seasons? I'm too lazy to do the research but I'm wondering if that's just the case of having a really good rookie class for kickers or if maybe Crosby is being overvalued

    2018 Free Agents to Target

    If the Broncos acquire Kirk Cousins, I wouldn't mind seeing if we could acquire Paxton Lynch for peanuts. I know he's been about as underwhelming for a 1st round pick as you can get, and supposedly hasn't exactly been popular in his locker room. But I do think he has talent, and for his $1.3...

    Minny's Return To Mediocrity Imminent As Packers Set Stage For 2010 Repeat

    Yeah but at the same time you're comparing their projected numbers with Rodgers throwing them the ball vs the Vikings 3 with Case Keenum/Sam Bradford throwing the ball. Personally I'd take the Vikings WR core, especially at the value they are getting that production (granted value isn't that...

    Minny's Return To Mediocrity Imminent As Packers Set Stage For 2010 Repeat

    Doesn't really account for the two years prior where he still wasn't lighting it up. Cobb has been a far cry from the player who had nearly 1300 yards, 14.1 YPC and 12 touchdowns in a single season for a couple years now.

    Minny's Return To Mediocrity Imminent As Packers Set Stage For 2010 Repeat

    I don't think the Vikings are anywhere near as talentless as you say, but they do have some questions going into next year that immediately comes to mind: 1) Who is their quarterback going forward? Sammy B might be done career wise. Did Keenum do enough outside this performance to give the...

    David Bakhtiari signs 4 yr contract ext

    It makes sense, and for the most part I get where the people skeptical of this move are coming from. And on top of that I do feel we overpaid a bit. That being said, in a vacuum i don't think this is an egregious move, and I really don't think it'll look bad at all in a few years unless...

    David Bakhtiari signs 4 yr contract ext

    A little bit pricier than I would have liked, but I'm not really surprised. I wouldn't call Bakhtiari an elite LT (honestly more middle of the road). But it gives us stability on Rodgers blind side long term, he's young and LT is one of the most valuable positions on the offense. With the...

    Packers need better results this season to justify Thompson's blueprint

    While you're first statement isn't technically wrong, i'd still claim the argument is a bit meaningless in the bigger picture. It doesn't change the fact he let young productive corners go (And yes i realize tramon williams wasn't young), and we drafted corners in the 1st and 2nd round. I...

    Packers need better results this season to justify Thompson's blueprint

    I wouldn't be completely surprised if we traded/released Shields. TT doesn't seem to have a problem moving on from DBs when he feels like he won't get particularly good value for them (Davon House, Casey Heyward, Tramon Williams, etc). That being said, he did resign Shields to a 4 year $39...

    2017. Peppers or no Peppers?

    I think Peppers is gone after the year and I wouldn't be shocked if he retired. The guy is going on 37, and this is around the time we moved on from Charles Woodson (though maybe not the best example given how our safeties played the year after he left). As for Perry and Jones, I'd love to see...

    Grade this draft

    I remember the game, and hopefully he does build off of it. When I think of that game however part of me does remember the performance WR Chris Matthews (on the Seahawks) against the Patriots two years ago, only to fall back into obscurity and get cut by midway the following season. Hopefully...

    Grade this draft

    I'm a bit more optimistic in the sense that I think this training camp will be big for Janis in terms of seeing if he will finally figure it out as a receiver. When he was drafted everyone knew he was going to be a project, and so personally I always had the expectation that it was going to be a...
