Guess this will have to do. Thinking if they aren't going to get a WR Jones must be good to go.

wow.....the only thing he looks to have going for him is a cool last name. That pic in the link looks like the ball is bouncing off his head...not the best promotional pic

He's a 6ft 3 inch tight end.
As long as he knows the routes he's supposed to run, that's a good thing.

Myles White is gonna be the new face at WR for us this week.

Sweet. I am all about Stoney!!. He missed that td pass in pre season but I really like him.

Heck, you might even see Stoneburner there, he started there his Senior year at OSU.

I think that Eddie Lacy cracked a smile when he heard Stoneburner may be blocking for him.

I agree, pretty cool name. As long as he doesn't become known as "Stonehands"!! Looking forward to see what he can do for the Pack!

He was a heck of a blocker in preseason but I don't remember him following in the Jermichael Finley path.

Well TT solved the WR issue, now on to safety.

Nope....that was a temp fix not a solution. More patchwork than anything.

Sorry Frank, but 6'3" aint crap for a TE nowadays. Now if he was 6'6" or taller he may become a match up issue, as for now...not so much

Solved? he just filled a position of need imo. We still need help there or else.

 

[lambeaulambo]

Walker added to practice squad? He is better than White IMHO.

I agree.
Now the matchup problems are like Jimmy Graham and Christian Fauria's son who just had the hat trick for the Lions this week against Cleveland, who we play Sunday.
I wanted Fauria BADLY in the draft.... we could have had the UCLA hat trick with Datone and Franklin. I don't know why the guy went undrafted, but he's already done enough to prove he should have been. His dad was solid for many years. I thought we appreciated Blood Lines in Green Bay. Dammit.

Or Taylor had knee surgery.

James Jones sat out of practice wednesday. Does not look good, but I know they would rather rest him than run the risk of further injury.
