Sound Familiar? Kampman Tears ACL, Out For Year
Nov 12th
For the second year in a row, former Green Bay Packers and current Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Aaron Kampman tore his ACL and will miss the remainder of the season. Last November, Kampman tore his ACL in the Packers’ victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Yesterday, Kampman tore his ACL in practice. It’s unclear whether [...]
In Case You Missed It: Aaron Kampman Still Has A Little Left
Sep 18th
We had pretty strong suspicions before, but it’s now clear Aaron Kampman was badly miscast as an outside linebacker with the Green Bay Packers. Kampman never took to the move from defensive end and had only 3.5 sacks before going down with a torn ACL in game nine, last season. Kampman signed with the Jacksonville [...]
Packers Made A Mistake Not Trading Kampman
Apr 8th
Back in October 2009 we suggested the Green Bay Packers could be listening to offers for Aaron Kampman. Ultimately, Packers’ general manager Ted Thompson didn’t make a move and he’s given no indication there were any offers for Kampman or, if there were, what those offers might have been. This offseason, Kampman signed with the [...]
Kampman Thanks Packers, Fans
Mar 20th
No one can say Aaron Kampman isn’t a classy guy. Kampman, who signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars early in free agency, took out an ad in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel thanking the Green Bay Packers, fans and the community. It reads, in part: It’s been an honor to serve this community for the past eight [...]
Kampman Signs With Jaguars
Mar 7th
Aaron Kampman is now a former member of the Green Bay Packers after agreeing to a contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars early Sunday morning, according to Jacksonville.com. Length and terms of the contract haven’t been announced, but Kampman, who is returning from reconstructive knee surgery, likely received a similar deal to the four-year, $26 million [...]
We May Be Short Changing Aaron Kampman
Mar 4th
On the eve of free agency the Green Bay Packers face one of their toughest decisions on the future of defensive end/outside linebacker Aaron Kampman. The Packers have publicly stated that they want to resign Kampman, but they will have competition for his services. A week ago, it would have been fine with us if [...]
Green Bay Packers Combine Wrap Up: Aaron Kampman Edition
Mar 1st
The NFL scouting combine is over will end on Tuesday. Much to my chagrin, I thought it ended yesterday. So, we’ll give you this hot beef injection of Green Bay Packers’ combine-related news 2010! from the weekend. Let’s start with Bruce Campbell, the left tackle prospect from Maryland who blew the field away in several [...]
Bears Targeting Kampman, Peppers
Feb 24th
The Chicago Bears needs a defensive end, that’s been established. Adewale Ogunleye is an unrestricted free agent and isn’t expected to be re-signed. Further, Gaines Adams, who the Bears traded a second-round draft choice for during the 2009 season, died in the offseason. Even with both of those guys, the Bears defensive line managed only [...]
Kampman Could Land in the Division
Feb 12th
The Green Bay Packers’ Aaron Kampman is a free agent and we’ve speculated on several occasions why he’s unlikely to be back with the team for the 2010 season. Chief among those reasons is Kampman didn’t fare well converting from a 4-3 defensive end to a 3-4 outside linebacker. For that reason alone, Kampman is [...]
Kampman Likely Done in Green Bay
Jan 13th
When the Green Bay Packers cleaned out their lockers this week, several members of the team may have done so for the last time. Long-time starters Chad Clifton, Mark Tauscher, Ryan Pickett and Aaron Kampman are all unrestricted free agents. The Packers will likely make moves to replace Clifton and Tauscher, and would be wise [...]
Harris, Kampman Done For the Year
Nov 23rd
As we mentioned yesterday, the Green Bay Packers win over the San Francisco 49ers likely came at a cost. The cost is, unfortunately, higher than anyone had planned for, as both outside linebacker Aaron Kampman and cornerback Al Harris will be lost for the season with torn ACLs. While the Packers will be down two [...]
Was Kampman’s Absence Good For Packers?
Nov 16th
The Green Bay Packers played their best defensive game of the season on Sunday without Aaron Kampman. I know it will probably be considered heresy to even suggest, but you have to wonder if the Packers defense isn’t better without Kampman. Consider these known truths. Kampman, who sat out Sunday’s game with a concussion, has [...]
Packers Trade Chatter Gets Louder as Deadline Approaches
Oct 19th
The chatter is getting louder with the NFL trade deadline looming tomorrow and the Green Bay Packers are part of it. Whether that results in any deals remains to be seen – Packers GM Ted Thompson isn’t known for his splashy moves – but there are some things to keep an eye on. The Journal [...]
Aaron Kampman is Potential Trade Bait
Oct 9th
With the NFL trade deadline around the corner (October 20), it seems to be increasingly apparent that the Green Bay Packers are willing to listen to offers for, or may even be shopping, outside linebacker Aaron Kampman. Before you fly off the handle, this move would make sense for the Packers in a number of [...]
Green Bay Packers: 5 Reasons for Excitement
Jul 1st
With training camp beginning at the end of the month, I am starting to get excited for the upcoming Green Bay Packers season. Since we’re in the down time between the Packers mini-camp and training camp, I figured now is as good a time as any to get you excited too. There are some very [...]
Positional Notes: Kampman, Barbre and Raji Looking for a Fit
Jun 25th
We know more about this year’s version of Green Bay Packers now that the team’s first mini-camp has concluded. It has been well documented that former Packers’ defensive end turned outside linebacker Aaron Kampman has been a bit uneasy about the position change this offseason. First, he wouldn’t even discuss it. When he finally did [...]
Driver Happy, Kampman Speaks, Bears Still Suck
Jun 4th
Today’s word on your Green Bay Packers is just that. Wide receiver Donald Driver has shown up at the Packers OTAs and was on the practice field for the first time yesterday. Driver admitted he is in contract discussions with the Packers, but his absence has been due to non-football-related matters, specifically, a relative of [...]
The Packers’ Linebacker Brouhaha
Jun 2nd
Much is being made of the Green Bay Packers linebacker situation this offseason. The transition to the 3-4 defense of Dom Capers has forced several Packers’ players to make position changes, and it has left the two outside linebacker spots up for grabs in training camp. Although I would hardly suggest the Packers are set [...]
Driver Pissed. Kampman Silent. Tramon Rich. Harrell Healthy?
May 29th
Gettin’ paid, bitch! All of this came out on the first day of the Green Bay Packers’ OTAs, which, for the uninitiated stands for organized team activities. OTAs are basically a way for coaches to get the team together and start practice before the NFL officially allows them to start practice. OTAs are not mandatory, [...]
