I wouldn't mind taking a look at Jake Long to see if he's healthy.

I fear Bulaga is going to get put back over there out of necessity and that would be a very bad thing but better than anything else we've got. Tretter could go play RT and should be able to hold up much better over there.

Barclay as a LT? He could be hit or miss at RT. I thought he could be taught to be a pretty good RT but nobody ever thought he was going to be a LT. I'm truly scared to watch this unfold. I hope we hand it off and decide to work on our running game. All pass plays better be quick hitters or roll outs to the right.

Anyone think the Packers still "trust" Don Barclay?

I really respect the way they stood up for him yesterday. It's obvious to everyone he struggled, but no one left him out to dry, and that doesn't go unnoticed to Barclay and the rest of the team.

Having said that, I don't trust him no. He's coming off this severe injury that almost requires you to relearn how to play your position. I'm going to cut Donny some slack, at least for now. He's a backup for a reason after all. I just hope Bakh comes back in full form or we may be in some trouble.

That said he was bad; but gotta look more closely to see his footwork and technique. Some guys need more reps than others to play w/ confidence on a repaired knee and OLmen are like wine, many just keep getting better, who would have thought Babre or Giacomini would play at their respective levels. If his knee was not 100% physically repaired, he wouldn't have been thrust into LT.

It's all about Barclay trusting his knee and banging off the rust, the only question is when.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
