This guy is like 6'6" or something, right? We're gonna be really damn tall if he's signed. I have read he's really good run blocking.

Spare the "at the right price" crap when answer the following. Do you think the Packers should sign him?

The Green Bay Packers could soon have a new tight end. Good morning and welcome to the Titletown Report for Thursday, May 24. Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst is searching for some tight end depth. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Wednesday that the team is interested in potentially signing Marcedes

Lewis would give us a solid run blocker and a sneaky redzone, short yardage receiving target. I'm all for it!

This would be a great signing. 100%

It would be a good signing, the Packers do not have much depth at TE and Lewis was graded as a top run blocker for his position. This late in free agency he probably could be had for cheap too, maybe something similar to what Kendricks got.

#3 WR
#2 TE
#3 OLB

I think those are the 3 positions the Packers could use an upgrade at before the season starts. With all the young WR on the roster I don't expect a signing there, and there are not a whole lot of OLB options unless the Packers make a trade or wait for someone to get cut. Tight end is probably the way to go.

Don’t overpay but definitely make him an offer.

But a big blocking TE might help, considering the Packers don't really have one, and I read that while Lewis isn't a huge passing game threat, if you overlook him and leave him on one on one match-ups he can hurt a team, as he did scoring 3 touchdowns on the Ravens, when the Packers couldn't score a single point on them.

He's better than Kendricks so yeah I'd be good with signing him.

I love that double fake handoff -- what a thing of beauty. I wish we would see more of that kind of artful deception at the line of scrimmage from Mike McCarthy.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : @JoeJHoyt Murphy said he’s been told he won’t slide past pick No. 16.

wpr (12h) : Just about time to watch Sonny Weaver stick it to the seahags. I never get tired of it.

Martha Careful (12h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (12h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (15h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (16h) : 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 (22-Apr) : Someday we'll have a draft betting scandal

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
