Lots of doom and gloom this week. Lets talk about the game Ty had. Hopefully McCarthy finally gives him and others consistently playing time. Ty has earned it. He's fun to watch.

yeah if his last name was Spiller and he had the exact same game people wouldn't be freaking out so bad about our back up RB.

Ty is a big, strong dude and has more upside than Abby. Would like to see Davis make more of his opportunities, and of course Aaron to get his house in order. But yeah, always been a huge fan of Montgomery.

I absolutely love this guy. He needs to stay on the field.

Montgomery has been practicing as RB for over a month now and Aaron Rodgers says that Montgomery is "now a RB" lol

It doesn't say "RB" next to his name on the roster though therefore he can't be a good back up RB and we need to sign a FA that has one of those "RB" things next to his name.

I'm just happy he's making catches and being part of the offense. Between his ankle injury last year and quiet year (TC+first couple of games) I feared he was just a flash in the pan.

Edit: Oh, and I was worried when I heard he had micro-fracture surgery

What do you not like about Montgomery at RB? He has the size for it and looks like a dang RB lol

Ripowski has the heft but not the speed. Monty has the speed but not the heft.

Martha Careful (8h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (8h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (11h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (11h) : 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

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.

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
