We can sign about 15 free agents in the salary range of Williams and Walker

Great. If we sign those 15 guys maybe we can petition the NFL to keep 75 on the opening day roster, and maybe we can start 26 just because they'll all SUCK.

at least with that many guys on offense we should be able to send out a couple WR's and a TE or two on passing downs instead of having to keep them all in to help keep favre off his ass

What makes me laugh is thinking about Morency trying to run behind that line. They need another year of "seasoning". Could be good in 08. Should be sporadic this season as they were late last season.

And on defense, there could be twice as many people in the secondary that wouldn't know where they were supposed to be.

This guy I'm not very excited about. Relatively, highly touted, but hasn't done much.

Yeah because we all know that morency had less yards per carry, less explosive runs and did not get almost 500 yards on 35%-40% of the carries as Ahman Green.NOT! There are 31 other teams to cheer for have at it.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe the Pack are trying to spend their transportation budget.

So, if that is the case, then what exactly do you attribute Morency's higher ypc, higher yac, and triple as many big plays, and a much higher % of big plays per run.

Jimmy Wilkerson? Isn't that what Mike Montgomery sees when he looks in the mirror?

Frank Walker I'm cool with, but this guy...yawn.

The agent for free-agent defensive lineman Jimmy Wilkerson said he has not yet started contract negotiations with the Packers, but that could happen soon.


Joby Branion, who represents the 6-foot-2 and 290-pound Wilkerson, said his client’s visit to Green Bay on Tuesday went well and believes there is interest from both sides.

“Nothing’s happened yet, but I imagine that could happen soon,” Branion said. “I know he was impressed with his visit.”

Wilkerson is an unrestricted free agent who played the last four seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs. He can play both defensive end and defensive tackle, which would fit well with the Packers’ defensive scheme because they like versatile defensive linemen.

Branion wouldn’t say what kind of contract Wilkerson is seeking but did say the Chiefs have expressed interest in re-signing him.

I can't remember where it is anymore, but I think Harvey mapped out some very vital statistics regarding matchups and strength of schedule that focus on some of these points.

The more FA's he signs really cheaply, the more fans will be occupied or caught up in 'the haze'.

Ted's tricky. :)

Better not repost it, it'll change how these guys FEEL about Morency. I don't know who they watched last year, but it wasn't him. Most of his yardage came in two games, I think.

I found it.... What the hell. Guess reality backs up my "supposed negativity". But remember... I just want to bash Thompson. I really didn't watch any of the games last season. :roll:



In defense of Morency, I thought he was a more effective back while he was in than Green. He had better YPG and he had that burst to and through the hole that Green used to have but now seems to be losing.

I serioiusly question Morency's durability though. I can't see him staying healthy. RB is our biggest need right now. RB and FB.

I'm assuming you mean YPC, and that can be misleading when comparing a starter to a backup. Turner had a better YPC than Tomlinson. Bennett had a better YPC than Larry Johnson.


So, in the games they were going against bad run defenses, Morency had 42 of his 91 rushing attempts. That's 46.1% of his rushing total. In those three games, Ahman had 21 of his 266 rushing attempts. That's 7.8% of his rushing total. Against bad run defenses.

Conversely, in the five games against the toughest rushing opponents, Ahman had 95 of his 266 rushing attempts. That's 35.7%. Morency had 14 of 91 rushing attempts. That's 15.3%. Against good run defenses.
