Can't figure out why the fuck they resigned this guy with the other guys still pending. He should have been the first one they told to hit the road.

Packers agree to re-sign DB Will Redmond
By Zach Kruse

The Green Bay Packers are bringing back one of their best special teams players from the 2019 season.

According to Josina Anderson of ESPN, the Packers have agreed to terms with free agent defensive back Will Redmond.

Once a third-round pick of the San Francisco 49ers as a cornerback, Redmond moved to safety in 2019 and played in 13 games for the Packers, tallying 36 tackles, one pass break up and one tackle for loss.

Redmond did his best work on special teams, producing a team-high nine special teams tackles. He was especially effective as a gunner covering punts.

The 26-year-old played 271 snaps on defense but struggled at times in man-to-man coverage. He’ll provide defensive coordinator Mike Pettine with depth in the secondary.

As a #4 S and STer he was good... though I thought they'd get Campbell back first, who might be a decent #3 S.

Redmond is basically a ST coverage guy.

As for Redmond. I am not thrilled about him although I hear is a stud on Special Teams. And I suppose we need ditch diggers.

We need a down vote button for the asshole posts

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 (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) : 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."

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.
