Packers Sign Morgan Burnett
Jul 16th
The Green Bay Packers have locked up third-round draft choice, Georgia Tech safety Morgan Burnett, with a four-year deal. Terms of the deal have not been disclosed. Burnett is expected to compete with Atari Bigby for the Packers starting strong safety spot. The team is down to two unsigned draft picks — second-rounder Mike Neal [...]
Atari Bigby vs. Morgan Burnett
Jun 27th
When training camp opens, the Green Bay Packers will have few spots in the starting lineup up for grabs. The only totally open competition is at left guard, where Daryn Colledge will battle Jason Spitz for the starting job. There are other positions that may turn into competitions, however. T.J. Lang and Mark Tauscher may [...]
Packers Depth Chart: That’s Interesting, Man
Jun 22nd
The Sporting News released their pre-training camp preview for the Green Bay Packers on Sunday and our initial reaction was, to borrow a line from The Dude, that’s interesting, man. The depth chart wasn’t interesting so much for the starting lineups, but more surprising on some of the second-string players. First, it’s important to point [...]
Looking At The Packers As Preseason Favorite
May 24th
You hear a lot more about the idea in the national media than you do in the local media, that of the Green Bay Packers as a preseason favorite. Peter King ranked the Packers atop his preseason power rankings. Pro Football Weekly and Yahoo! Sports will declare the Packers their Super Bowl favorite in their [...]
Bryan Bulaga Is Pretty Strong
May 17th
Green Bay Packers’ first-round draft pick Bryan Bulaga is a big boy, but he showed he’s a little more than just a wide body last night. Bulaga took batting practice before the Milwaukee Brewers went out and got swept by the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. While quarterback Aaron Rodgers and tackle Mark Tauscher combined for [...]
Aaron Rodgers Played With Substantial Injuries
May 16th
Green Bay Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers admitted to WTMJ Radio that he played the 2009 season with substantial injuries. Rodgers appeared on the Packers’ injury report five times during the season, being listed as probable each time, which doesn’t equate to substantial injuries in football terms. However, team’s often play fast and loose with their [...]
Bulaga Plans On Playing Left Tackle
Apr 30th
The Green Bay Packers first-round draft choice, Bryan Bulaga, showed up to meet the media on Thursday afternoon and it made it clear he plans on playing left tackle. “I’d like to play left tackle, but obviously there is a lot of work that comes with that. You have to earn that position; that is [...]
Green Bay Packers Draft Grade: A+
Apr 25th
I’m joking, of course. Any idiot who’s grading 2010 draft classes today is, well, just that. An idiot. Every team in the NFL is better today than they were at this time last week. Every team in the NFL has added new players to their roster. Grading a team’s draft class before they’ve even played [...]
A Look At Bryan Bulaga’s Packers’ Future
Apr 23rd
As we sit around and wait for the second part of the NFL Draft to begin tonight, we thought it would be a good time to take a more in-depth look at the Green Bay Packers’ first-round selection, Bryan Bulaga. As I mentioned yesterday, Bulaga isn’t the elite-level tackle prospect that Trent Williams, who went [...]
Packers Get Lucky, Bulaga Falls To No. 23
Apr 22nd
With all the talk of trading up or trading down, the Green Bay Packers got lucky in the end with Iowa left tackle Bryan Bulaga falling to the team as they stood pat at No. 23. There was word earlier in the day that Packers’ GM Ted Thompson was considering trading up to grab Bulaga, [...]
Remember the Name Rodger Saffold
Apr 22nd
As the NFL Draft approaches, one name that appears to be rising up draft boards is that of Indiana left tackle Rodger Saffold. Saffold, who was a four-year starter at Indiana, seems to be benefiting from what many predict will be a run on tackles in the first round. Saffold is 6-4, 316 and Peter [...]
If Packers Move Up, Look For Bulaga
Apr 22nd
The NFL Draft is finally here, or at least it will be tonight. We’ve previously discussed the possibility of the Green Bay Packers moving up in the first round and looked at the players the team might target. The National Football Post’s Michael Lombardi says the specific player the Packers have their eye on is [...]
Packers Could Trade Up And Who They Might Land
Apr 20th
One thing we haven’t discussed in relation to this week’s NFL Draft is the possibility of the Green Bay Packers trading up. The reason we haven’t discussed it is because Packers’ general manager Ted Thompson has only traded up twice in his five years on the job. He did, of course, move up last year [...]
The Rise, Fall, Rise and Fall of Bruce Campbell
Apr 17th
We’ve talked a lot about Maryland left tackle Bruce Campbell simply because he’s been projected as a first-round pick in this year’s NFL draft and the Green Bay Packers badly need a left tackle. The thing with Campbell is, he’s all over the board. Campbell was labeled as one of four year-one starting caliber left [...]
Keep An Eye On Outside Linebackers
Apr 5th
The Green Bay Packers have several needs – probably more than a legitimate Super Bowl contender should have – entering this year’s NFL Draft. We’ve been harping on tackle and cornerback as the two biggest areas the Packers need to improve. At tackle, the Packers are relying on veterans Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher. Both [...]
