I'm sure they're actually pretty nice guys so I don't mean to be nasty. But it appears these two have work to do to make the roster.

Well I think they've been awful and they should both be cut, but it IS pretty nasty to refer to them as "dumb and dumber"--in a thread title, even.

For Barbre, a resounding "Yes!"

I do not know why he was even brought back, really. After the season he had, he shouldn't have been brought back period.


As for Breno, I still think he has talent at a position we could use it. We have Taush, but after him not much of anything. Lang missed the entire off-season, so I'm not sure where he is currently at in terms of progression. But between Breno and Spitz, we could have solid depth on the right side of the line.

However, if Lang can get back into form, then I say keeping Breno becomes so much more difficult despite all his physical attributes.

I think this Thursday against the Colts, it's do or die for Breno. He'll be facing a team that relies on speed rushers from the DE position, which has been one of the main sources of trouble for Breno thus far. It'll be a huge game, one he has to perform well in despite his limited snaps.

They've cetainly had their opportunities. I would have liked to see them try Barbre on defense as I understand he is pretty fast for his size, like 4.7, 4.8?

Edit: Although if he has no instincts or understanding I guess his speed would just take him further out of the play.

If youre going to play offensive tackle in the National Football League, youre going to have to be able to block defensive ends in pass protection, offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said. Thats a primary job requirement, and youve got to be able to do it on a consistent basis."



Said about Breno. I guess so much for him.

Barbre allowed 7 sacks in 7 games. Unless he has the most amazing preseason, so much for him as well.

Macbob in another thread had 10 OL above them:


Clifton, Colledge, Wells, Sitton, Tauscher, Bulaga, Lang, Spitz, Newhouse, Dietrich-Smith



We may just keep 9 OL and if so, they're definitely done.

I wonder if we've been keeping Breno because of his size and hoping he'll develop.

According to the article I read that's exactly it. Prototypical right tackle.

I think Newhouse, Dietrich-Smith and Breno are fighting for the 9th spot...

I think Clifton, Colledge, Wells, Sitton, Tausher, Bulaga Spitz and Lang are safe other than injuries, trades and if they just play horrible from here on out.

They could go with 10 but I think I prefer 9 with all the talent at WR and TE...

I think Breno was in the top 9 but he's been falling... D-Smith was probably #10 for a while and probably is the safest pick but least upside... Newhouse wasn't close at the start of camp but he's improved the most in camp and could take that 9th spot.

That's just my over view.

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) : 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.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
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.”
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
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
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
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
