    Giants are working out Alex Green and Felix Jones today, according to sources
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    DE Lawrence Guy (vaguely remember him?) is on the Ravens.

    He's been on the PS or roster of 5 NFL teams since 2011

    Ya, I remember him. He was the guy who was just coming on in college, and decided to come out early - then lasted until the 7th round. I saw some interviews with his coaches, and they seemed to be saying if he came out too early.

    I thought Guy had potential. He was apparently very talented physically, and had good size. But he never did quite develop, but he's made a few dollars. Probably way more than he coulda made doing anything else. So for him, it' s a good career.

    From #Packers 2011 draft, DT Lawrence Guy (7th) with @Ravens; TE Ryan Taylor (7th) with @Browns. LB D.J. Smith (6th) cut 10/14 by @Panthers.

    Now, maybe Sherrod somewhere.

    Didn't he have a concussion issue when he was trying to make it his first year? Too bad he couldn't stick around. I guess we have the next version in Mike Pennel.

    Mike Sherman is taking a job coaching High School football. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-school-coach/

    But former NFL HC Mike should have heeded former NCAA HC Sherman. If he had, he would have have been serving only one master, not two. And been more successful.

    Be Harder On Your Star Players
    To become a great team I believe you must push your star players harder than the rest of the team. You cannot concede your principles because you know these players are the ones who will help you win games. Become more demanding of them, not less. The lesser players will respond to this in a positive way because you do not play favorites. The star players will also benefit from this because they will not be thinking they are something they are not. (See Tom Brady – perfect example.)

    So NE, KC and now the Lions for him. Packers didn't get the conditional pick for trading him either, I assume.

    I think they do need some depth, but I wonder if there's not a little of that hometown-boy-gets-a-favor going on. Maybe they're hoping that being back home will somehow help the guy.

    Here's one for you. If the Packers had a crystal ball on draft day to see Worthy's future and Russell Wilson's future, they could have selected Wilson instead, and perhaps in the course of playing him in the pre-season 2012, 2013, or during the 2013 stretch when Rodgers was hurt, Wilson could have built up enough interest to have trade partners lined up and the Pack could have parlayed him into draft picks. I know it's ridiculous to think they would have spent that pick on Wilson, but it's interesting to think about what might have been.

    Be careful Carolina, some Packer fans, who spent too much time envisioning alternate scenarios about the Mandarich draft, still haven't returned to present day.

    I'm still not over drafting Rich Campbell over Ronnie Lott in 1981. The Packers were so bad at drafting then.

    There was a story a few years ago in the JSO that suggested Packer scouts really, really loved this Notre Dame kid named Montana, but Bart wanted to show he was da man so he passed on that guy.
