Packers release WR Amari Rodgers & RB Kylin Hill

I was not expecting that. I was thinking Amari would be focusing on WR duties and if flopped there, cut.

Green Bay sent third- and fourth-round selections (92nd and 135th overall) for the 85th overall pick on Amari Rodgers. Ouch.

I sorta understand the Amari Rodgers release but I’m surprised by it.

I definitely don’t understand letting Hill go. What’s the reason? Who are they replacing them with?

I think Hill will be resigned to the PS.
Really don't. Know about Amari.
Sounds like Cobb will be ready for Thursady with the Amari move.

Crazy that Amari's Das coached Randall in College and Randall worked with Amari when he was in Hugh School .

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I expected Amari to be released at the end of the season. Not mid season. Then again, he doesn't offer anything. He would be in the WR mix if he could play WR. 16 targets in 2 seasons shows that he doesn't have it as a WR.
Here is yet another 3rd round draft pick for Gute that has failed.
Rodgers in 21
Deguara in 20 has been rather meh
Sternberger in 19
Oren Burks in 18
Gute is 0-4 and nothing to show for the 22 selection Sean Rhyan. (Yet.)

I would have hoped that they could possibly trade Rodgers. Was thinking the Jaguars would have taken a flier to see if they might get some of the college success with Trevor Lawrence? I guess not. Unless the plan was as mentioned to try and stick him on the practice squad. Would Rodgers want that or just a fresh start elsewhere?

Amari had 2 years to prove he belongs on the team. Sadly, he failed.
I feel sorry for him, but there comes a time where they have to do what's best for the team.
I wish him well, wherever he ends up.

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) : 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.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

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
