First leak is predicting Eagles vs Cowboys to open the season.

Ew, Why?

I guess my thoughts are I would rather have 5 good/not great OL versus 4 elite and 1 inept player. I think that is what also very much what played out in the playoff game, too. You can win with Josh Myers. You can't win with rookie Travis Glover or Kadeem Telfort. So, when you develop an elite RT (...

I'm not denying that the gap is shrinking. I'm just saying it still exists. What has gone away completely is that it used to be LTs had to be pass protectors and RTs were more run-oriented. And you could get away with a mediocre RT more so than a left. Now you for sure need two good pass-protecting ...

who complained about depth? we now have 4 tackles, unless you consider one of those 4 ag/c then one or even two of those tackles will ride pine, that's reality, trading Walker for a 2nd rounder or a CB seems logical Yeah, I'm just not sure yet if we have 4 tackles or 2 tackles. Counting on Belton a...

Gabe Davis does seem like a pretty ideal WR choice for the Steelers, given the size and outside ability to be opposite DK with Calvin Austin and/or Roman Wilson operating in the slot.

But Buffalo is interested in bringing him back, too, allegedly.

if we are to trade a player, to me the biggest draw would be Rashad WAlker, he's probably a LT only, and that position is still a need position for some teams, our two players on the line that took a dip, Myers obviously, and Jenkins slightly https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/packers-2024-report-card-...

I believe the term is hare-brained.

OHHHH like a rabbit brain. Not like a brain made of human hair instead of fatty tissue. That makes a lot more sense.

Let's remember Tom's rookie season in Green Bay: Tom was on the field for 489 snaps, with 295 coming at left tackle, 96 at left guard, 14 at right guard, and 84 at right tackle. They didn't CHOOSE his spot. In 2023, there was an open competition at RT while Bakhtiari was the assumed LT starter despi...

I will also remind the commenters that the actual basis for this thread is things I don't see happening but believe should. I specifically called them longshots or "hair-brained"

Well according to over the cap, there are 4 right tackles making 20+M/year and 11 left tackles making the same. So until those numbers balance, In going to factually assert that left tackles remain the most valuable position on the OL. But let's look at the Packers. Cleary Tom is the best player on...

There was something off on our Oline last year and it showed up big against the tough opponents. Right in the middle. The guy no longer here. I don't know if it related to his running mates, but Jenkins was also playing well below his capabilities last year. I specifically remember him getting his ...

So he has Brees before Brees broke out. He had Gannon before Gannon broke out. And Montana when he was washed. One could say he didn’t have good QBs. One could also say he didn’t have the staff to get the best out of these guys who were great either later or earlier in their careers. But he was an e...

It's also funny because McCarthy came up under Marty Schottenheimer. Marty was a legendary coach most well-known for not being able to get his team over the top. He was a very fundamentals, run the ball, stop the run kind of guy. TONS of regular season success, playoff failures. McCarthy was essenti...

4. I don't see the large value difference between right and left side. I think that is kind of antiquated thinking. Many defenses have their premier pass rusher line up against the RT now to go against the "lower caliber" player as a response. I think the larger thing is you pay good mone...

1. I am actually confident that Morgan can beat out Walker at LT. I also think the Packers want Morgan to beat Walker which will give him every opporutnity to do so. I see Walker as our swing tackle in 2025 and earning us a 4th round comp selection in the 2027 draft. Well of course the Packers WANT...

Man, I just can't live in the past enough to debate Aaron Rodgers like this. He's been gone for years now. He's not relevant to my life. I dunno how you guys do it. We got names from pre-pandemic teams coming up in threads all over the place. Must be far enough post-draft that we're drifting into of...

Pickens is in a contract year so I wonder if they plan to extend him or this is a rental. As a rental, the trade comp should be pretty low. Also, given that they're paying CeeDee, Dak, and Parsons, I dunno if WR is the place they want to spend more money. And knowing what kind of effort/attitude you...

I will side with YoHo on the reasons to do this deal from the Packers standpoint, but I also don't believe Watson and his agent will accept the type of deal that the Packers would be offering (and should be offering, which is more to your point). Yeah. The Packers are pretty adamant on 4-year deals...

As Benoit Blanc said about Miles Bron in The Glass Onion, “it’s just dumb.”

It's ok, lupe. Not everyone has the creativity and vision to see these things
