A player who just came off a Pro Bowl year is mediocre. Okay. I wonder what that makes all our linebackers whose name isn't Clay Matthews?

And being afraid of someone because of being a character issue means you have no confidence in our coaching staff. If someone is a character issue on our team, then that only shows how crappy our coaching staff is for not keeping the man in check.

LOL DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE YOU TALK!!! You think Porter had a Pro Bowl Season?!?!?! Check your stats! 41 tackles LOL. Seriously man come on!!!

No, I have confidence in our coaching staff but you can't turn a douche bag into a diamond just like you can't change an ego-centric, self-centered player into a team player (see Terrel Owens).

Wow that was one of the worst posts I have seen on this board.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

The question isn't whether or not Porter can help. He can. It's whether or not he can accept a role the coaches assign for him?

I don't think he can play the run. I haven't seen enough of him this past season to say that, but I'll take the Miami coaching staff at their word. That seems to be the reason why he wanted out of Miami and they gladly released him. I have no doubt he'll improve the pass rush over Brad Jones, but can he live with being just a pass rusher only and coming out on running downs? That seems likely.

That's why I would have mixed feelings on this move. Then again, he could maybe embrace Green Bay because of Dom Capers, Charles Woodson and Aaron Rodgers. Who knows?

Character issues aside, I don't see how he could be a good fit.

Reason? We excelled at stopping the run the season past. A player who complained that he was only used on passing downs - there has to be a reason for that. I doubt Miami would ditch him on certain downs simply because they didn't like his face.

If he is a liability, therefore a downgrade, against the run then I don't see the point in adding personnel that improve one area of the team (Pass rush) at the expense of our run defence which is on the cusp of being an elite unit.

Zero2Cool is my captain.

Porter would be a good 3rd down pass rusher, but he's already said he will only take a full time job.

Zero2Cool (7h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (11h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (13h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (16h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (17h) : 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!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now
