They told us all last season that they liked Stoneburner, and they kept him around. Maybe he will get his chance.Originally Posted by pittstang5
The first week of camp they said Perillo outplayed Lyerla, but then he plateaued. Time for him to turn it up.
I'd hate to see Stoneburner cut because of numbers or whatever, then resurface as a decent TE with some other team. I have at least as much hope for him as I do for Bostick.

IMHO, Bostick is a lot better than Stoneburner.
"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
Ah yes, Stoneburner. Forgot about him....not good if you are forgotten.
Good thing both Quarless and Rodgers seem no worse than servicable.
MM said Bostick has a "lower leg injury". Why so wordy? He been reading Red's posts?

He might as just tell the opponent WHICH leg!
Actually, he should just say 8 players missed some time or were limited this week and then list the various injuries alphabetically. Let the press sort that match game out.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Lyerla is out for the season, right? I read torn MCL and PCL from the family night hurdling episode.

Imagine for a moment a world without hypothetical situations...
I don't think anything has been made official yet. Can't imagine he'll play this year. They can't PUP him and I can't see them using a roster spot to keep him. Best thing to do, if they feel he has potential, is IR him.
I don't think Barclay or Abbrederis have been put on IR yet either. We know they aren't playing this year.
Supposedly they're planning to waive him.

He told Demovsky the Packers want him on IR and try again next year.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Why can't they IR him now?
Not sure. But I suspect it has to do with being a UDFA and having less than minimum League contract currently. If he would have made the roster, whatever his money was from choosing GB as a UDFA would have been increased to the rookie minimum.
There are probably rules in place to avoid keeping a player all year and not having a weekly paycheck.
For instance:
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 1h
OK, let's get this straight once and for all: Jets added WR Shaq Evans to injured reserve, not waived/injured. Apologies for confusion.
was a fourth round pick and they sent him right to IR. It can be used the other way too. The TE the Giants lost to NE was waived in order to vacate his contract.

TT on the 2013 draft class (with 5 starters): It's good. We don't separate players by years. Love the 30-years-olds as much as 20-year-olds.
TT: I was often times playing in the 2nd half of preseason games, competition level drops, even I made a few plays. Have to weigh it out.

At the start of #Packers practice Carl Bradford and Jayrone Elliott are working with the regular defense. Typically they're inside w/scout D
On the flip side of Bradford/Elliott, WR Myles White is with the scout offense while the main group is inside.
Rajion Neal and Joe Thomas still out. #Packers
With Bostick out, Jake Stoneburner continues to get more work with the starters. Caught the first pass from Rodgers in team.
So far in this period, Rodgers has taken the first three reps then Flynn took one. Three more for Rodgers then one for Tolzien.
Julius Peppers just destroyed FB Ina Liaina and dumped RB Michael Hill in the half-line drill.
Jayrone Elliott is at right tackle with the No. 1 punt team. That's usually Bostick or Ryan Taylor.
I'm starting to wonder if Ryan Taylor's roster spot isn't as safe as I thoughtPackersld be. #Packers
Ryan Taylor is in his regular spot with the No. 1 kickoff return team. Barrington in on it now for Palmer.
QB reps in the last team period, in order; Rodgers (4), Flynn (3), Tolzien (3). #Packers
Rough red zone period for the offense. Rodgers missed Nelson and then Boykin had a rocket from Rodgers go right through the wickets.
Sack for Mike Neal, who beat Aaron Adams off the edge and for Flynn.
Janis. Hyde, Williams and Cobb catching punts. Tramon mishandled one of them.
FG period for Crosby: 33: Good 38: Good 42: Good 44: WR 46: Good 53: Good
I remember when the "move the ball" period actually meant it. A 20-yard completion from Flynn to Adams on 2nd-and-6. Next play 3rd-and-8.
Burnett and HHCD are the safeties in this defensive period. Hyde was with Burnett earlier in practice.
Hyde and Richardson are the No. 2 safety pairing.
If there was a starting lineup change with HHCD, they likely would've started practice that way. Must be a rotational thing.

I was at practice today. Defense was on the field about 20 minutes before the offense came out. They're spending a lot of time in Hutson Center working on crowd noise. Not a great day for the receivers really. Best action was in the running game segments. At one point you could here Peppers yelling at the LT "You know what's coming!" Stoneburner getting a lot more playing time with Bostick out. Seeing Bradford standing next to Matthews is startling. Hard to believe they play the same position. Guion did not practice was on the field practicing accelerating out of 3 point stance.

Don't be surprised if Lyerla gets claimed by the Patriots.

The writing is on the wall for Peri. All the bitching about Worthy being a failure, but Peri is an even bigger bust. At least we might get a pick back for Worthy. We need the last two drafts to be as good as 2012 was bad. I still think he will make the roster this year, but no way does his option get picked up, and will be looking for work.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
I don't know about bigger. At least he has some stats in game action.
