do we really need another player other than Igor in FA now. Now that canty has been signed our only dire need i feel is the LE spot for the 3-4, i feel that its not even that much of a deal because jolly is not a perfect fit but he can play there while we adjust. the main use of the end is to set up double teams and he can use his size to do that. they arent so much pass rushers anymore.

I am just as high on Olshansky as I am on Canty. Olshanky is stronger and seems nastier. I think we could use that attitude on our d-line.

I say this every offseason, but I wouldn't mind bringing back Grady Jackson. He was fun to watch and always showed up big on the short yardage situations. Put him in there with Pickett and that like 700 pounds of weight to move!!!

As far as the offense goes, we probably should look to bring in some more guards and tackles.

Our offensive line has been the weakest part of our team since Ted Thompson took over. The actual best season was Colledge and Spitz first season. Maybe that was because Tauscher and Clifton were much better back then.

Anyways, we need help on the o-line or Rodgers will have to play another season with a separated shoulder or what even new injury are useless excuse for linemen subject him to.

I agree, I was looking at some FA defensive linemen, and I saw Grady on there. He could be great at our NT position either as a starter or being a rotational player with Pickett.

He's 36 years old. One of these years, I bet you stop saying it! :lol:

I thought he was on the decline when he left GB, but every game I've seen him in, he stands out (for more that just his weight). Could be like Pat Williams where being big is all you really need.

i wouldn't go that far i dnt really feel that our needs are that dire on defense. it seems really weird saying that after it was our defense that really f'd us this year, but most people do know but dont acknowledge the fact that our defense was HURT!!!!! almost all of them. look at the beginning of the year compared to the end. better in the beginning? Answer is yes! reason... they were alive then. we even played teams that were considerably better (and when i say considerably i mean a hell of a lot better) in the beginning of the year.

Matt Birk would be a good get in my opinion.

Khalif Barnes to play RT if Mark Tauscher isn't brought back is another player to look at.

Jermaine Phillips or Sean Jones could push Bigby and Rouse for the starting role opposite of Nick Collins.

Bertrand Berry versatility makes him intriguing.

That doesn't change the fact that a lot of the guys who are supposed to be starters right now played like sh*t without being hurt.

Martha Careful (17h) : 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 (18h) : 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.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

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

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

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

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 (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

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.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
