I'm happy with this starting 5. I'm actually very excited about Barbre, this last game his name was mentioned a lot on our good running plays. That's all that I ask for, is our OL names being called out for good blocks, not mental mistakes. Good luck front 5, we've been waiting for a solid lineup for too long now.

The article bodes well for him staying on the roster and part of the 2009 plans for the Packers. Excellent.

"Don't count me out," Wells said. "It's a little blow, but it's not the end. So you have to stay the course and try to maintain a positive attitude and see how everything shakes out in the long run."

When is Wells contract up? He's too competitive to be somewhere he has no chance to start IMO. Might we loose him through free agency? Should we trade him while we can get some value?

I think that he signed a 5-year, $15 million deal in 2006. I hope that we can trade him, although I don't think that we'll get a whole lot more than a 5th, max.

Like you said, I don't know if he'll be happy as a back-up over here, although his contract isn't that bad.

Thanks. At least we don't really have to worry about loosing him through free agency and we will have a very solid back up. So I guess the question becomes, will we have a disgruntled player on the roster.

Basically, I don't give a rat's ass if he's disgruntled, if he needs to play then so be it. He better be ready cause he is making a lot of coin for a substitute.

Secondly, it would be irresponsible to trade him until we draft a center to groom. I can't believe we didn't take one this year with a deep class of centers.

Thirdly we all get caught up in these player's feelings. They are paid professionals, actually they are assets to be moved around at the will of the leaders of the team. I understand the college feeling around the Pack but I won't get caught up in the emotions of any of these guys especially when those greedy agents use them like a sales pitch and unethical, irresponsible journalists just scrape up crap to print.

I think Spitz is that center to Groom, and is what has been happening. Only taken longer because he was needed at guard. But I believe the plan from the beginning with him is to take over at C.

This is some great news for a team not real deep at the tackle position.

Packers: Healthy Clifton feels renewed
By JASON WILDE

But as he looked at the restructured offensive line, Clifton wasnt thinking about being replaced. Instead, he was thinking about playing several more years.

I feel good. Honestly, this is probably the best Ive felt in a few years in camp, Clifton said. I think Ive taken quite a few more reps this year in practice, and so far, so good. The knees are holding up real well, the shoulders feel good, so Im just keeping my fingers crossed and hoping it keeps going like this.

I certainly hope Im back next year, man. Thatll play itself out, I just want to come out and perform well this year and that other stuff will take care of itself down the road. I certainly feel like I have a few more years left.

Zero2Cool (7h) : I hope they take a Punter at 9th overall. Be bold!

Mucky Tundra (7h) : I may end up eating those words but I think they need a lot more talent then their 4 picks can provide

Mucky Tundra (8h) : I really hope they stand pat and Draft a WR

Mucky Tundra (8h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (8h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend Penei Soul 4yrs - 112mil

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : 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 (24-Apr) : DT Byron Murphy II, Texas... whom some believe is the next Aaron Donald (or the closest thing to Donald)

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.
