GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers may have some competition for free-agent defensive tackle Letroy Guion.

An NFL source confirmed Guion visited the Seattle Seahawks on Friday, three days after his criminal case in Florida was resolved following his February arrest on felony marijuana and firearm possession.

The source said the visit was set up almost immediately after Guion's plea arrangement was finalized on Tuesday but added that Guion was "still very hopeful" a deal could be reached to return to the Packers.

Surprised this deal hasn't been done. We really should have a confirmation of Guion or Raji or both. Unless Ted has a hidden treasure in the draft we need one of these fat boys.

The Packers need a quality player to start at the Nose Tackle position. I doubt that any member of this forum would have the guts to stand face to face with a Letroy Guion, or BJ Raji, or Vince Wilfolk and call them fat or a drug junkie . Chances are you would be wearing your ass for a hat .

I'm just as concerned about filling the NT position with a quality starter as anyone. I just hope that the Packers will be able to sign a good player, as the current Defensive strategy depends upon a strong player at the NT position.

Insults of any variety are unnecessary as well as a poor reflection upon the poster . Let us respect all and learn to take the higher road .

Also a bit surprised the Packers haven't signed any of the cheaper ILB/CB...and Safety as well if they're moving Hyde back to CB. I thought they might bring in a cheaper players such as the Vikings and Bears have done adding guys. For the Vikings CB Terence Newman, ILB Casey Matthews, and S Taylor Mays. For the Bears S Antrel Rolle, ILB Mason Foster or CB Alan Ball... for safety net depth.

Guys they might be good vets players for one to three years until we got better depth at the position.

Speaking of which TEs Zach Miller and Rob Housler are still out there. They're probably be a step up over Bostick.

And I guessing they're planning on going into the season with R. Rodgers starting.

In the NFL, their best season (so far)
R. Rodgers: 20 catches for 225 yards and 2 TDs
Quarless: 29 catches for 323 yards and 3 TDs

Rob Housler: 39 catches for 454 yards and 1 TD
Zach Miller : 66 catches for 805 yards and 3 TDS

Housler has a ton of physical potential but hasn't always lived up to it.
Miller has been very good at times, but injury seasons lately have been holding him back.

I think we will all find out this coming week which of the Packers FA's left will be signed.

Raji, Guion, Bush, Kuhn will either be signed or Ted will let them know they should start/keep shopping themselves around.

I hope to see them all back.

Edit:

Let's not forget about Matt Flynn
He May yet be invited back.

Ted knows what these guys are worth.

If someone else is willing to overpay, so be it. We'll get someone else.

Mucky Tundra (11m) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (2h) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (3h) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (5h) : DT Byron Murphy II, Texas... whom some believe is the next Aaron Donald (or the closest thing to Donald)

Zero2Cool (6h) : What? And who?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : *sad Mucky noises*

Mucky Tundra (12h) : @JoeJHoyt Murphy said he’s been told he won’t slide past pick No. 16.

wpr (19h) : Just about time to watch Sonny Weaver stick it to the seahags. I never get tired of it.

Martha Careful (19h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (19h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (23h) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

beast (21-Apr) : Sometimes looking extremely amazing, sometimes looking extremely lost

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th
