Considering the Packers usually say "he has a foot" and turns out he needs neck surgery. I'm siding with the notion that if the Packers are fearing the worst, it's worse than that.

Really sucks. Can't even make it to the first preseason game. Likely going to be another looong season for the offensive line.

😢

Here's to hoping Sherrod can start playing soon otherwise it's back to the Marshall Newhouse drawing board.

I wonder if they'll move Sitton back to the RG.

As disappointing as this is, I'm not fretting too much about Newhouse possibly taking over there. I think he has a chance to better his play after a down 2012. I have hope with him that he will take that step up in his play.

Sherrod seems like he is probably on the 3 year plan like Flanny was. With Bakhtiari being a rookie, he might be better off on the right side. Andrew Datko looks to be failing somewhat in his development, but it is still early and he may show. He's been a bit of a disappointment thus far.

Time to sign veteran LT, and I don't have a clue who might be available. While we may have some promise with the young guys, including Barclay, who I also really like, we should have a dependable veteran ready to go at LT, just in case.

If true, this has all the makings of currently the worst injury of the pre-season in the NFL next to the center of the Broncos.

My take: New competition at the left side with Bakhtiari and Newhouse. I don't think you do any switching with the guards and leave those battles consistent with the way they have been. Based on footwork, I like Bakhtiari to assume that roll. It is a HUGE risk yes, but even based on experience, I don't think Newhouse has earned that spot by default.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Well this blows. They should give Bakhtiari a shot there while it's still TC to see if he's got what it takes. If not, back to Newhouse.

Agreed. He looks more natural out there even as a rookie. To my eyes at least.
