    Knowing almost nothing about the guy except for his crazy name and that someone said he might be lazy, I'd be curious as to why you don't really want him.

    Its mainly the "lazy" thing. He isn't a self starter by most accounts which often means you get a guy who got by being the best athlete on the field and once they get in the NFL they don't do the necessary things to stay that way. I am only basing this on the reports and the 2 games I saw him play where he struck me as similar to Antonio Cromartie when it came to wanting to tackle a tough RB.

    Yeah, I am tired of guys who turn down tackles. Yuk.

    Packers QB Alex McGough now listed on roster as WR. He has no known history as a WR.

    This is a baffling move to me. He's not athletic enough to stick at WR, and he's like 28 or 29 years old.

    Last ditch attempt to be useful enough for the practice squad.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

    In a totally expected move, Packers declined to pick up the 5th year option on Eric Stokes. If the Packers had picked up the option, they would have owed Stokes 12.472 million in 2025.

    We have a young talented receiver room. This guy is a smart, gritty ball player. He’s experienced in the offense from the quarterbacks perspective. He’s close with Love. I don’t think any harm can come with this guy being in the receivers room with these young guys who could use the direction on how to get on the same page with the quarterbacks room.

    That might now be his best use on this team. Can he make extra points?

    If only we had a Rasul Douglas in the CB room. I know, horse/dead

    Holy crap.

    Jordan's price just went up again. I've gotta believe he'll average > $55M/year now. There's no sense dragging it out. Just get it done.

    I think they're waiting for the Devondre June 1 cap space to get the Jordan Love deal done, but I'm sure they are already fine tuning the numbers and well into conversations.

    That Goff contract though. Oof.

    How many years is the Goff deal essentially locked in? The guy is good, he's solid - but wow.

    Haven't seen details, but supposedly the contract runs through 2027 with an option for 2028.

    He is a good NFL QB, but to my way of thinking, Goff throws interceptions at key moments and is not at all a threat to run. But man, maybe that’s the going rate for QB’s. Packers better get this done before Justin Fields gets a new contact for $50 mill a year.

    Highest paid WR, and highest paid non-QB. He's a great player, but wow...that's a lot of money.

    Larry Allen, HOF Cowboy dies at 53. Really disliked those Cowboys teams, but he was a monster. Unreal strength.

    Darren Waller expected to retire. In hindsight, I'm not Gute never was able to pull the trade.

    It is but you got to do it. The huge Cousin's bill is gone so with a cheap QB I guess it makes sense. The guy is unreal.
