It would be nice to keep a running tally of the players the Packers bring in for tryouts over the course of the season.

Here is the latest batch:

Not a new item, but a little background on the player.

I hope this is not an indication the Adams is hurt worse than we think

Maybe also a sign that our receivers behind Adams aren’t really showing a whole lot.

But the Packers really have been failing to do this... as they have attempted to be a hybrid with what Rodgers likes (which is not throwing shorter passes)... but without Adams there... they might of had to do less of what Rodgers likes and more of the actual traditional system.


In this traditional system, the RB one of the most important players as they're trying to get the ball in their hands either through running or getting one on ones in the passing games. And without Adams, of course they go to Jones next... as none of the other WRs have yet been able to step it up enough (yet) and this gets the team more in sync with the normal system.

Though I'm a bit surprise we haven't tried (or if we have tried, it hasn't been successful), to set up MVS more for some deep bombs... but that could be partly due to talented defenses not giving enough time for deep shots or being able to cover better.


But coming into this game (first 4 games), the RB/FBs had 23 catches for 172 yards,
The Cowboys game they had 12 catches for 102 yards. (and got Jones 4 touchdowns though via running)
But seems like they went back to more of the traditional scheme this week... or got it working this week.

This isn't anything new.
Teams do it all year long.
Rash of injuries, players being signed by other teams, always be ready.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

    dfosterf (16h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
    Zero2Cool (19h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
    Zero2Cool (19h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
    Zero2Cool (19h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

    dfosterf (19h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
    dfosterf (19h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago

    Zero2Cool (19h) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
    dfosterf (20h) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
    dfosterf (20h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
    dfosterf (20h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
    buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted

    Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker
    dfosterf (26-Mar) : Lengthy explanation at PFF if you click the link
    dfosterf (26-Mar) : Kickoff rules officially changed.ngthy explan

    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
    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
    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
