Colt Lyerla has literally escaped from custody of a correctional facility. If he can make it here and if we convert GB to a sanctuary city [I think that's what that's for] Colt can play in our home games, not sure if he can travel and play in away games.

And Gary Barnidge has escaped from Cleveland. Our TE coach is who made him; I think they should seriously consider this guy he is 1000x better than Kendricks.

I was thinking this too. Surprised there hasn't been more interest in Barnidge. Had we not signed Kendricks I think Ted would be right on this. Now, I don't see it happening.

I'm sure the discussion is/has been held about Barnidge.

Crazy how The Packers can go years trying to find enough quality players at a certain position(TE in this case),
then all of a sudden there are a plethora of talent available.

I think Barnage will be high on the list, if one of the guys currently on the roster is injured or just dowsn't show well in training camp, then he will be called.

Let's see how it plays out.

Sounds like Gary Barnidge is going to visit 3 teams (unless someone blows him away with an offer). He's already done visiting the Bills, next up is the Kentucky derby, then the other two teams. The other two teams are to be rumored to be the Panthers and Jaguars.

Barnidge used to play with the Panthers and Jacksonville is the closest NFL city to where he grew up.


It depends on Barnidge's price tag to weather the Packers should be interested or not. If he's cheap enough it could be very nice adding him to the Packers roster, especially since I've always considered Kendricks an H-back (WR/FB tweener TE type) more than an inline TE... and Richard Rodgers is simply put a slow possession WR.

It's hard for me to say who's better between Barnidge and Kendricks because their QBs have sucked. But profootballfocus's  graph suggest that, in 2016, Barnidge, Bennett and Kendricks were the top 3 TEs in pass blocking efficiency (among TEs with at Least 90 pass block attempts).

Great pass protection from the TEs sure could come in handy especially if the Packers OL does take a hit with losing so many players recently. Barinidge could focus more on inline, Kendricks on H-back and Bennett can play any TE role.

Also I believe Bennett and Kendricks both have one year team options, meaning if the Packers want, they can decide to not pick up the future years and they'll be FAs again.

It is sad there is so much talent in Colt's body and he just chooses to piss it all away. I understand he is most likely an addict; but for all of us who have ever played football or knew somebody who worked hard, but was never good enough it sucks to see a guy who should be a pro and just gives it up because of stupidity. 6 month sentence an you run away at 2?

Where he became the starting OG, starting NT and team captain (his senior year, one of four) over much bigger guys. It was very impressive for him (or very sad for the bigger guys), but I always wish he would of had decent chances at a future athlete and he just simply didn't have the physical tools for it.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
