I know exactly nothing about the Jaguars...but wasn't he starting for them? And, they gave him up for a 7th? Do they know something Green Bay doesn't?

That Smith doesn't fit well in a 4 -3 as he does a 3 - 4 he has a few years experience in?

Well, it can't hurt. And with a hothead like Derrick Martin on the roster Smith should fit right in.

Low risk move. I like it. Too bad no other RBs are available. I doubt Oakland wold be willing to part with Bush or McFadden, but those guys are both better than B Jack.

My understanding is that Oakland's willing to trade anyone they've got this time around. I imagine they want way too much for either Bush or McFadden, but if the reports are true, both are available.

I like it. They needed help @ safety, the guy knows the system as well or better than anyone else they'd bring in, and a conditional 7th is a good price. Well done, IMO.

This guy must be the only dude in NFL history who was signed, cut, and traded for by a team.

Smith was originally cut at the end of camp last year right?

Yes. I remember a lot of us thinking it was a head scratcher because he looked pretty decent that preseason. Hope he can fill in for the rest of the year, provide...something, anything, back there.

is this the same dude last year that had almost everyone here going WTF? because in the preseason he had 2 INTS and looked pretty good for a newguy.

We talked about it could be his attitude or whatever but were never sure why he got cut. But then we saw the fanakle (made up word) of what happened once bigby went down and we had a few different safetys trying to play and causing us to lose games.

Nice pick up even if bigby will be alright ... we never know.

that was a dumb move last year by Ted Thompson ... obviously the dude is alright if he was going to start for the jags.

get freaking peprah off the field

Everyone on this board pleads for Ted Thompson to sign someone when a player gets hurt or isn't good enough. But now that he has brought in someone who is familiar with what we do, and is healthy and ready to play, you grill him for it.

Good trade, hopefully it only costs us a 5-7 round pick.

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (18h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (23h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (23h) : 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) : 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.

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.”

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
