The Packers have a pair of free agent tight ends in Jermichael Finley and Andrew Quarless who have yet to sign contracts for next season, but the team isn't waiting for them to make up their minds to explore other options. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that Owen Daniels is visiting with...

Quarless is the solution. Ted better get him signed. Finley can go wherever. As for Daniels, he is still just 30. If he is not permanently damaged from his injury, and if he is cheap enough, he would be a good addition.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

The biggest play of Quarless' career was a TD catch against Minnesota in 2010, which he actually dropped. Brad Childress just wasn't quick enough to challenge the play. He does have talent, but I wouldn’t put all my eggs into one basket.

Plus, it’d be nice to see the Packers get back to two tight end sets. A veteran plus an emerging Quarless (or draft pick) could open up that part of the playbook.

Daniels is a sure-handed tight end. Not the mismatch Finley is, but hey, it's a good signing if we make it happen.

You all know how ted and Mike love their TE's!!!!
Have you all forgot about Brandon Bostic?

Then there is Jake Stoneburner.

Silly not to think these guys aren't going to get better their 2nd year.

Plenty of room for Owen Daniel if Quarless goes elsewhere. Even if Ted resigns Quarless it would be good to bring Daniels in.

Not even counting on Finley, no way The Packers let him come back after the injury.

Bostic, Stoneburner, Quarless, the ever present Ryan Taylor and Daniel wouldn't be a bad lineup at TE.

You've got Taylor, Bostic and Stoneburner contributing on Special teams while developeing another year with Quarless and Daniel as a pretty good pair of starting TE's.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Sure-handed and could definitely help the red zone offense.

I want Quarless back, his blocking is very good and he has improved in receiving.

If we were going to bring in a FA at TE, I would look at Pettigrew.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I think Owen Daniels would be a good signing for the Packers. They have clearly expressed no interest in bringing back Finley (that's fine) and Owen Daniels is very sure-handed and is a red zone threat.

He'd be a good locker room presence and veteran presence for our young tight ends as well.

Zero2Cool (6h) : 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.

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

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.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

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!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
