This is great information to back up the argument of the failure of the front office. I don't disagree on this point. They could have done more. I gave my reasoning as to why they didn't. I really think the front office thought they were set at WR. They were wrong and should have done more.
I read a few articles about the Jones situation. What all of them similarly said that the Packers did offer him a contract, which was a pretty big pay cut. What I read was that it was around the $7 million mark for one season. That would have been a pretty big hit to his paycheck and it also...
This is what pretty much my point was exactly. They didn't draft a WR for two years because they thought they had the WR room they wanted. They drafted Moore (complete bust), MVS and EQ. They already had Adams, Cobb and Lazard. They didn't feel they need to go after more. Then they added Rodgers...
In 2018 they drafted Moore, Scantling and St. Brown. They did ignore the position in the draft for a couple of years. Could be they had Adams. Then in 2021 they took Amari Rodgers. Pretty big bust for where he was taken. 2022 they took Watson, Doubs and Toure. 2023 They took Reed, Wicks and...
Jones contract was such that he would have been one of the highest paid RBs in the league. I want to say it was around the $17 million mark. They just were not going to pay him that. Jones refused a pay cut, so the Packers moved on. I really believe the plan was to move forward with Jones. When...
I think it was brought up because that's what the talking heads were saying. I've never seen him play beyond highlights. I think by the end of the season he will have surpassed Dillon and will be our #2 back.
This is why I listen to the local guys. Mainly the local radio guys. They have their thumb on the pulse of the team much more than the national talking heads. I don't even bother with ESPN, Fox or any of that anymore.
At this point I think Gary has reached his potential. I would say he is a solid starter with streaks of being above average. I don't treat PFF as the football bible, but it's a good source of information. He didn't crack their top 20 for linebackers in 2023. They rank him as 80 for a grade. He...
On top of having to live in MN's stomping ground, I have 5 bro in laws that are all vikes fans. One of them is drinking the kool aid that they are going to be good. His thoughts are that McCarthy is legit and it is the perfect spot for him with Jefferson and Addison. Hockenson is the best TE in...
Will he though? I'm not sure he makes another full season in his career. We cut bait at the right time. He's 40 years old and does not have an offensive line like Tom Brady had to keep him upright.
I grew up in Wisconsin outside of La Crosse, so just a stone's throw from the Mississippi. There were plenty of MN fans around. Then I spent nine miserable years out in South Dakota. That land is regional broadcasting for MN sports teams. The MN fans out there were the worst I ever experienced...
