Defense? What the heck are you talking about?

I'm not sure who's defending whom, but I rather try to think of all scenarios instead of being one of those naive ignorant assholes who just blames Ted Thompson for everything that wasn't done their way on their time line.

Again, not defending the lack of a move or condoning the lack of move, simply throwing out other scenarios that I'm not seeing mentioned.

But sure, call it me defending it I guess, why not put words in to my mouth, that's not weak or anything.

LOL.. I am far from blaming Ted.. as I am sure, as I have said numerous times, a legitimate reasoning for passing on this deal.. and that we will never probably know that reason because Ted isn't one to inform the fans.. they to him are an inconvenient bother of the job.

We didn't get Lynch.. that is fine.. but it seemingly would have filled a void currently on this roster.

Justin Forsett, of the Seahawk's is a former Cal teammate of Lynch's.

Lynch is from Northern Oakland, CA ... Seattle is a little closer to that than Green Bay.

Northern Oakland? I live in San Francisco. Didn't know that city existed. I'll be damned.

It's not a typo, that's what I read. It said he's from Northern Oakland and I threw in the , CA on my own accord because I for some reason thought maybe there was one person in the world that didn't know Oakland was in CA.

Ummm...Woodson is an educated, articulate, and fairly cultured man. Lynch, by EVERY account, is a bit of a thug, and a child of the streets. And let us not forget Woodson had only one choice, Lynch apparently had several. And, in spite of the fact it was a trade, I maintain that teams like Buffalo...and Green Bay for that matter...cannot afford the reputation of being unfriendly to players in treatment as it is already harder than many places to get FAs to think about...especially younger ones.

Damn.. did I say you were defending him.. but if that is what is used as the reasoning that comes out.. I personally am not buying it as a legitimate concern..

LTF is throwing fans under the bus.. Zero thinks I am out to get him... these emotional decisions of the Packers suck ass. lol.

You know... not going the distance to acquire Lynch could be a sign that Ted Thompson is confident in the people he has now. I know this is an unrealistic reach, but Ted could be so confident in what Starks may be able to do off of PUP that he took a pass on Lynch. (I don't ACTUALLY believe this)
Ted Thompson may also be holding on to see what happens with Williams in Carolina.

Personally I think the deal fell through because Ted Thompson was unwilling to part with one of his picks, yet again. However the old man always seems to have a plan in the back of his mind.

No joke here, I'm 100% idiot on the first part of your comment. Are you saying you've said it before or am I supposed to guess what the reasoning is? (admittedly so, I haven't read every post on the matter).

If I knew Lynch would stay healthy and out of trouble, I'd say we should have offered the same thing and sent his momma some flowers. (Lynch is a momma's boy)

Julius Jones will be available now. Maybe Ted has had his eyes on him all along....

I wanted him when he was a Cowboy. Is he good yet or was he injured and that's why he's declined?

Buffalo receives a 2011 4th round pick and a late conditional 2012 pick starting at 6th, could be a 5th.

Zero2Cool (22-May) : Savage played last half of season with tear in rotator cuff

Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!

Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),

Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.

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.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

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.

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

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.
