yeah, that was cooks agent trying to make his client look more valuable to other teams
the story about the team offering cook more was shot down by the team within an hour or two of the story coming out

hopefully, spriggs is ready to start, either at guard or RT and bulaga can stay healthy for the year and man the other spot not taken by spriggsOriginally Posted by Pugger
then hopefully TT can continue to find one of those mid rounds o-line gems to add some decent depth
we "might" be good to go for starters, but our depth is non existent right now, and between lindsly and bulaga, someone is gonna miss a lot of time
Thanks
no prob.
It'll be Bulaga that misses time, especially if they move him. Playing with the O-line is going to bite Ted in the ass. Hopefully Rodgers doesn't get hurt too bad when it happens.
Ted Thompson may have upgraded at TE.
Ted Thompson had to be well aware of the potential losses to his Roster this FA. It's the losses he has suffered on the OL that is a certain concern. He has lost two core members of the OL that he had at the start of the 2016 season and the loss of Tretter hurts him badly in terms of depth.
None of the above is good in terms of any real success and the 2017 season. Aaron Rodgers has to be concerned. His legs better be in great shape.
Ted Thompson has decided he will somehow build on 'only having a former WR' at the RB position. I wish him luck there.
How has TT done with his Defense?
He did nothing at the DL position to compensate for the Letroy Guion Issue.
Ted has a weakened position now also at LBer. He lost a key Role player/Leader in Julius Peppers. He lost depth with Jones departure.
He lost M. Hyde and gained D. House in the Secondary.
Summoning it up. If anyone really even imagines that this has been a successful FA for Ted Thompson I would recommend you for 'the Die Hard Packer Fan' Award of the year.
Ted Thompson has failed Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers 'miserably and miserly' this Free Agency and it is now time he retires.

We should probably be celebrating TT for signing an unrestricted free agent who was not cut. Per the NFL Network it's our first one in five years. And then we signed a 2nd one !
But to me bottom line is our roster of personnel is undoubtedly weaker before free agency started so I voted fail.
Many departures of decent players who were not replaced. Like always, our free agents leave and then re replenish them with young, cheaper players through the draft and hope they turn out. Seems like a great recipe to continue to be good, but not great.
People Bash on Elway (who has the same number of SB's than TT in many less years) and Hoody Genius (who seems to be a below average drafted).....but these are guys who on an annual basis make moves to put their team over the top.....trades and unrestricted free agenty....Demarcus Ware....Ward.....Hoody's got more moves than I can start counting.
I wish TT would do some of that.
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
FIFY
HOFer
you mean like the 13 fucking rookies we started the season with last year on the final 53 man roster
6 of which were undrafted.
thats what happens when you don't have enough real talent to fill out a roster
still an 'F' grade from me. team's no better than last year...so far.
I just voted so-so. I hear where you're group is coming from Gary. But for me, an 'F' grade would be if we lost good-great players and weren't able to resign any replacements. A 'C' grade for me is losing some and gaining some. That's where I believe we are if we're just talking about this portion of Free Agency. An 'A' grade would obviously be to lose little and gain lots. No TT FA period is going to get that.
Now what y'all know about dem Texas boys
Comin' down in candied toys, smokin' weed and talkin' noise!!!
ok...so Jean Francois takes pennel's place and may be an upgrade. FA grade improves to a D. team still hasn't improved over last year's...yet.
IMO Jean Francois might be an upgrade over Datone Jones more than Pennel.
To me if you voted success you think the teams better, so so would be about the same, and failure means your team is worst. We can't use money as an excuse. We have the ching. So we're debating about how it's being used and if our additions are greater than our losses. Degree of failure would depend on how much worst. If we were giving grades I'd also be in the D's as well; I think that's about the norm in GB

still a D...so far.
after the evans signing...STILL a D!
Brooks signing improves it to a C.
Teddy made lots of moves, both coming and going. I give him an A because I am unqualified to evaluate quality, but like big portions.
I am still with the Patler read that this season was not that much of an outlier for UFA signings as it was for total number of players leaving. I think Patler had it at 10 contributors who left.

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I HATE HATE HATE all the player movement. It really takes a dent out of my interest. But I figure that's the game today, and Teddy is probably playing it right. The team was unbalanced last year, that much I could tell.
