If he was worth risking to win football games, then we should be willing to do the same. The lifespan of a pro athlete is so short, use them while we can.

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back and All-Pro kick returner Clifton Smith is visiting with the Packers in Green Bay today, according to his agent Jason Lamont Dillard.

Were thinking about it right now, said Dillard.

At this point, no signing is imminent as Smith is mulling offers from other teams. However, Dillard indicated that the timeframe for a decision is today.

I'd love it if we signed Clifton Smith. Maybe cut Tom Crabtree, Pat Lee or Jarrett Bush or something.

This is a placeholder

I was worried at first that Smith was suffering form knee problems this preseason until I read that it was from gout. That's controllable. His consusssion problem from last season is a concern, I know it wasn't from a normal collision hit when he can be prepared for the contact, but once you get a concussion, it's a question mark for life. On the upside, he was only the third rookie free agent to make the Pro Bowl back in '08, that's pretty cool.

quick note on clifton smith:

career attempts rushing: 12, fumbled 3 times
career receptions: 6, fumbled 1 time
additional fumbles in kr/pr: 3

That's nothing but OUCH :ramboface:

Alot of fumbles but honestly, he wouldn't be hear to receive or rush, and from what I see the guy has 111 career returns (both P and KO) and only 3 fumbles, not bad at all if you look at it that way, just have him as a specialist and keep him off the offense. I wonder if he's ever played gunner?

It doesn't make perfect sense because Harrell is not reliable!

You do not have a starter as a backup for another starter. Unless one of the starters is not a regular starter in the most commonly used package.

Well it seems the coaches disagree with you on both OL and DL.

Since you don't think Pickett is the back-up NT then who do you think is the back-up NT?

Neal? Harrell? Wilson?

Maybe the coaches should consult with us? Neal, out with injury. Harrell, out for season with ACL.

And THEY get paid the big bucks while we just post on a forum. I think we're getting hosed!!

Heck yeah he did! He also said something (you know who) said as well. That blocking is the biggest in thing (kick) returns. Pretty much coinciding with what was said by (you know who) that if we don't have a gap or hole, it doesn't matter who we have back there. :)

Hey, give me a break, it's not often I'm even close to being right, let me have this! 😛

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

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!
