Packers Try Out Tony Moll

Acording to PFTalk.com the Packers tried out Tony Moll... color me curious as hell why they would entertain this thought.

One could take the tea leaves approach and start to wonder about the true severity of the Bulaga injury.

One could try an apply that maybe the Packers have concerns on the inside as far as depth goes.

But it is curious, passed his understanding of the Packers system, why they would consider a washout like Moll. Is there really not a better option on the market?

Hence the peaked interest in the minor news.

I think at my height and weight, I could be more effective at blocking the RT position than Tony Moll, and I'm better looking.

On that list Max Starks (Vikings) and Ray Willis (Patriots) are both former 16 games starters are worked out (for the team I put next to their name). Starks a big boy 6-8/345, has start 68 games for the Steelers over 7 years but I think he's been known to have injuries. Willis has started 26 games over 5 years for the Seahawks.

And being a vet, they don't have to keep him on the roster for any certain length of time, like they would have to if they called up a practice squader.

I don't think this says anything other than that they are one man down on the OL.

If there's a former player available, and the intent is a backup role, you can see the appeal. Moll was pretty damn bad, but if I'm not mistaken he was thrust into the starting lineup in only his second year. He didn't play much, and he didn't play particularly well, but he's managed to hang around the NFL since then. Not exactly the warmest of words or a vote of confidence, but right now the nightmare scenario is if Clifton/Newhouse have any injury troubles. Hopefully Bulaga is healthy/back soon.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
