[QUOTE="PackerLegend, post: 136961, member: 518"] We have Two great up and coming Rookie Guards why sign Timmerman who is 35 makes no sense at all. Packers, Timmerman unlikely to be reunited By Pete Dougherty [email]pdougher@greenbaypressgazette.com[/email] The Green Bay Packers don’t have any initial interest in veteran guard Adam Timmerman, who was released earlier this week by the St. Louis Rams, his agent, Mark Bartelstein, said Wednesday afternoon. The Rams cut Timmerman, 35, to save salary-cap money and open a spot in their lineup for second-year pro Mark Setterstom, a less expensive alternative. The Packers originally drafted the 6-foot-4, 300-pound Timmerman in the seventh round of the 1995 draft, and he became a starter in his second season, the Packers’ Super Bowl year of 1996. He held that job through 1998, then signed with the Rams as an unrestricted free agent and was a fixture at right guard thereafter, playing in two Pro Bowls. The Packers probably could use some quality veteran help at backup guard. However, with Jason Spitz and Daryn Colledge playing well and showing improvement over the course of their rookie seasons at right guard and left guard, respectively, the Packers don’t have a strong need for a starting guard. So, Timmerman probably wouldn’t have much interest in the Packers. Bartelstein said he’s received calls from several teams, but not the Packers. “(Timmerman) is definitely a starter,” Bartelstein said. “He’s still playing at the same level. This is just the function of a new coaching staff and they got a young guy they drafted they want to go with.” [/QUOTE]
