Or at least that's what it looks like, with the Denver Broncos DB Coach position < the GB Defensive Coordinator position.

Packers likely didn't wanna go down that route again so they moved on.

I'm guessing no one else wanted him for DC. So he's starting from a lower rung. 🤷

I get that people in Wisconsin wanted him to be the DC but I never saw it. I didn't want Barry either but there you have it. Not sure he would have been worse. Not convinced he would have been better.

Jeff Hafley, a single-high 4-3 defensive coordinator.

They keep repeating this, I'm interested to see if runs single high often in the NFL, as he's also talked about the importance of two deep shell.

Also... if he wants to run single high Safety, then the Packers need to get a true FS (or two).

PFF seems to suggest they believe the top 3 Safeties will be Franchised tagged, so I'd be looking at Safeties Xavier McKinney and Jordan Fuller.

Jordan Fuller would be an interesting one to look out for. Fuller went to Ohio State where he had Hafley as his defensive coordinator, and was drafted by the Rams, and LaFleur's Falcons drafted his brother Devin Fuller.

People forget we finished the year with the 10th best scoring defense. This quack we hired is supposed to be a great secondary guy, well folks last years team finished 9th is passing yards per game. And those folks are Facts and Facts don't care about your feelings lol. See what I did there NonStop lol

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

You are right. When HC goes through coordinators that's not a good sign. He elected to keep Pettine, then they didn't extend him. He offered it to Jim Leonhard who opted to stay with familiar organization instead. He settled for Joe Barry and let him go ateast one season too long. I'd say if the final 13 games don't show significant improvement over the first four. LaFleur might find himself on hot seat!!

Mucky Tundra (1h) : @CCSewell “Vietnam, another country with very strong ties to France” might be my favourite bit of commentary so far

buckeyepackfan (6h) : Not going to be as bad as some might think, this will look like a bargain in 2 years.

buckeyepackfan (6h) : 75mil signing bonus

buckeyepackfan (6h) : 77mil Signing Bonus, 155mil in new guarantees! Going to have to wait for the breakdown of the entire length of the contract .

Zero2Cool (7h) : Jordan Love and the Packers have agreed to a 4 year $220M contract

Martha Careful (11h) : Olympic opening ceremony is marginal at best

Zero2Cool (13h) : I was told that the hold up with Tua was the APY but they ironed it out and for Love, it’s been structure of the contract. -- Dianna Russini

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Tua and Love have the same agency, so things might be closer than we realize

Zero2Cool (13h) : Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $212.4 million, including $167 million in guarantees

Zero2Cool (13h) : Sounds like 4 year deal coming

Zero2Cool (13h) : Tua and Dolphins seem to have an extension in place.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : @prettyrickey213 Today has been flippant 🐬. Now waiting for it to be cheesy 🧀

Zero2Cool (14h) : Jones, Ballentine and Jennings join practice off PUP

Zero2Cool (16h) : Yikes.

wpr (16h) : The injuries keep on coming. Lions K Michael Badgley tears hamstring, out for season.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Great, Jenkins is taking snaps at Center. Lovely. More OL mishaps

wpr (25-Jul) : Another one bites the dust. Rams CB Derion Kendrick feared to have torn ACL

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Vikings CB Mekhi Blackmon tore his ACL today, a source confirms.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : You do know he's QB2, right? Pratt. Check the 53 cheat sheet

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : If Clifford keeps playing the way he has Pratt is gonna be flying by him on the depth chart

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Michael Pratt getting more first team reps than J.J. McCarthy

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Who made a prediction? I posted what it will be, not prediction mate! 😁

dfosterf (24-Jul) : It is within.the realm of possibility that someone had Bowden on their depth chart prediction. I thought they did. Could be wrong

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Record Prediction?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : I think someone edited their prediction post after

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Jayden Reed cleared to practice

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Never heard of the dude before haha

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Bowden is trash, can't snap his way out of a wet paper bag!

beast (23-Jul) : I'm hoping they re-sign Bowden after Love signs and this is just a game to get a 3rd QB while Love isn't practicing

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : got older over *

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Glad to hear it! And Happy Birthday! My brothers had got over over weekend

Cheesey (23-Jul) : Hi Kevin! Yes, I'm still alive. Just turned 67 a few days ago.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Packers long snapper Peter Bowden has been released to sign Jacob Eason.

wpr (23-Jul) : I heard Reed tweeked his ankle and his youth camp.

beast (23-Jul) : I believe NJI is usually used for pre-NFL injuries (rookies) and vets that got injured doing something they weren't supposed to.

beast (23-Jul) : Might be interesting to hear how Reed got injured, as I believe NJI is non-football and teams don't have to pay you list.

Zero2Cool (22-Jul) : Love won't practice until new deal is agreed. Ok, my stance changed

Zero2Cool (22-Jul) : TRAIIIIINNNNNING CAMP!!! let's fookin go!!!

Zero2Cool (22-Jul) : Jayden Reed placed on Non-Football Injury list

beast (21-Jul) : Yeah with the way the cap went up, don't be surprised if the new good QB gets more than $55 million per season

Zero2Cool (21-Jul) : Kenny Clark. Extended!!

buckeyepackfan (21-Jul) : The "raw" number will probably be in that area. The numbers to look at are signing bonus. Guaranteed money, and Salary Cap Hit each year.

dfosterf (21-Jul) : Those numbers align with my guesstimate. Might find out tomorrow

Zero2Cool (21-Jul) : Saw some rumor the Love contract is around 5 years $280m. There's no way.

Zero2Cool (19-Jul) : Packers sign wide receivers Rory Starkey and Jalen Wayne, waive Alex McGough.
