    If that's the case, maybe it's good that Murphy didn't give him the GM job.

    Lions released TJ Lang. He played just 19 games for them in two seasons.

    LaDarious Fucking Gunter started at CB in the playoffs, for fuck’s sake! Proof that Todd was still in charge back then.

    Sherman would’ve signed Antonio Cromartie. Even though Cro wasn’t the pimp he was in his youth, with his time-vested experiences fighting NFL wars, he woulda limited Julio Jones to 100 yards receiving and a TD instead of 250 and 3 as goddamned Gunter did.

    I'm pretty sure they weren't excited to have to use Gunter, but injuries and their approach to building depth at the position was the reason. Thing is, if he was some diamond in the rough prospect that was going to be developed, he certainly didn't stick around Green Bay and no other club really wanted him.

    Which is worse as a reputation, having other teams make a silk purse out of your sow's ear, or realizing that what you thought could be a silk purse was actually a sow's ear and nobody else thought it was worth the bother?

    HHCD is a Bear for a year. He only got a one year deal. Makes me think teams are tempestuous about him.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

    Anyone want Jordy back on a one year deal? He may retire, who knows?

    I think Jordy might devote all his time to his other job.

    Every Packer fan should be happy that we are moving on from avg players, below avg players, mistakes... Ryan was simply too limited as an athlete.

    Unfortunately, the one glaring mistake Gute seemed to make from last years draft was Ryan's supposed replacement, Burks.

    If Burks is as confused again this year as last, cut him and move on

    Burks has a lot to learn. Like Josh Jones, I'm hoping having a year experience in Pettine's system will help him. So far both are better athletes than football players.

    @AdamSchefter
    Former Packers’ WR Jordy Nelson is scheduled to visit the Seahawks on Tuesday, per source. They were interested in Nelson last year; GM John Schneider loves Nelson.

    Other interested teams at this point include: Patriots, Titans, Chiefs, Raiders.

    The Cowboys are hosting free-agent wide receiver Randall Cobb at The Star today, according to a source. With the departure of Cole Beasley, the Cowboys are looking for help at slot receiver and Cobb can also play on the outside. In eight years in Green Bay, he had 470 catches...

    Bashaud Breeland is signing a one-year, incentive-laden deal with a max value of $5 million with Kansas City...One guy I was hoping we would go after...this can come back to haunt us.
