Justin Harrell Will Never Be The Biggest Bust In The 2007 Draft
Jul 21st
No, that honor will go to No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell, who was dumped by the Oakland Raiders after three seasons and will go down as one of the all-time great busts. Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Just Harrell is in the next group, though. Harrell is one of nine of the 32 players [...]
New Throwbacks – Whose Is Best?
May 8th
We showed you the Green Bay Packers’ new throwback uniforms, a modified version of the team’s 1929 uniforms, which they’ll wear for one or two games TBD during the 2010 season. The Packers aren’t alone in joining the throwback craze in 2010, though. The Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles will also join the trend. The [...]
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, [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Day Two Free Agency Update
Mar 6th
Although it will be quieter today than it was yesterday, we’ll again keep running updates throughout the day with the latest news at the top of the page. Check out the day one free agent rundown here. ———- OK, the Aaron Kampman saga continues to get weirder. The Eagles have refuted the report below that [...]
No One Wants to Coach in Chicago
Jan 14th
Well, maybe not no one – Chicago Bears’ coach Lovie Smith probably still wants to coach there, but he hasn’t exactly been given a recipe that’s likely to result in success. After firing half of his staff, simply because the Bears’ organization was too cheap to do what they really wanted to do and fire [...]
Vikings Lose Los Angeles As Leverage In Stadium Battle
Jan 7th
The Minnesota Vikings lost some big-time leverage in its quest for a new stadium. The company behind the plan to lure the NFL back to Los Angeles announced Tuesday that the Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills will be the first teams it will try to relocate. Majestic Realty Co. managing partner John Semcken said the [...]
Should There Be Penalties For Sitting Starters?
Dec 30th
Although the Indianapolis Colts are at the center of this discussion after they pulled the plug early against the New York Jets on Sunday, the Green Bay Packers very much factor into the conversation because, as we’ve discussed, Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals could very well be meaningless for the Pack. It brings up [...]
Cowboys Don’t Implode, Packers Do
Dec 15th
Numb. That about sums up how I feel about the Green Bay Packers after their 20-16 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars yesterday. Pretty much every aspect of the game was ugly. The overwhelming feeling that the Packers have been in this situation before, that they wouldn’t come through on a particular play, and that this [...]
One Less Thing For Packers To Contend With
Dec 13th
Going into this weekend’s game with the equally bad and underachieving Jacksonville Jaguars, the Green Bay Packers will have one less thing to worry about, as Jacksonville running back Fred Taylor was put on IR Thursday. This effectively shoots Steffen’s prediction that Taylor would run for a 100 yards against the Packers… right… in… the… [...]
Predictions: Packers vs. Jaguars
Dec 11th
Is the Green Bay Packers’ season in a freefall – or will the team finish strong, setting up a championship run next season? Based on the ineptitude on display over the last few weeks, I’d have to lean towards the former. Green Bay’s defense has been especially bad against the run in recent weeks and [...]
