Packers give RT Bryan Bulaga veteran rest day
By: Zach Kruse | 21 hours ago
Coach Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers gave veteran right tackle Bryan Bulaga a rest day during Saturday’s training camp practice.

Bulaga, who has an extensive injury history and 10 years of NFL experience, was among nine players to miss practice, the third of the Packers’ training camp....

Smart....we need to do more of this...throughout the season

Let's not do more of this. Maybe Bulaga is always injured because of dumb shit like this. I'd be fucking embarrassed if I needed a rest day on day 2 of camp. He had been through 1 practice.

Prett sure Bulaga already knows what he is going to be doing come September.

Resting him in practice every so often is mot going to hinder him.

He's not a rookie, he won't fall behind.

Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if Bulaga is traded or released before TC is over.

No Ted Thompson draftee is safe.

Yes, as long as he mentally knows the new scheme and the difference in run blocking and calls Bulaga should be ready to go... and this helps prepare his backups.

Gute has only shipped guys out when there was potential big talent that needs to be developed behind a guy, so far, that doesn't seem to be the case at OT, at all! They're gonna need to draft an OT soon.

The new administration needs to keep guys healthy.

I wonder how the strength and conditioning coaches in Cincinnati are going to keep their jobs after Green tore ankle ligaments and will be out 6-8 weeks?

It's obviously their fault.

Heads should roll!

There is very little difference in strength and conditioning from team to team!

There were 384 players that ended on IR last year.
That is an avereage of 12 per team.

The Bears had the least with 5.
The Cardinals had the most at 20.
The Packers had 15.
Only 3 of those 15 were due to core muscle injuries.

This is the NFL, it's still a very tough game.
Players are going to get injured.

Resting veterans can only help.

Pretty sure nobody got the full pad practice off.

Pretty sure the hate geared towards the GB training staff is due to the absurd amount of hammy and groin pulls this team has dealt with year after year for the past decade. Those are injuries that can be impacted by proper training. No one is blaming the training staff for torn ACLs and broken collar bones.

Stop blaming the coaches.

I've read about almost every year different things The Packers try.

Somebody comes up with a hammy and muscle pull preventive , that somebody will be one rich dude!

Zero2Cool (10h) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (13h) : 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

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 (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

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.”

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
