Grant, Pickett and KGB - Injury Risk?

[Carolina_Packer]

Thompson really has shredded the depth on this team from last year. I have not had a really great vibe about this season ever since July.

Is this a joke? This team is very deep at almost every position - and the depth is even more talented - and more experienced - than last year. Maybe a bit weak a DE, but perhaps they'll scheme around that with more pressure from LBs safeties and maybe even a corner.

yeah, shredded is a pretty powerful word...he traded Williams to Cleveland and time will tell if he got back in production what he traded. He traded Favre and we'll have that pick next year. Beyond losing Brett's experience in order to let AR's experience begin and not overpaying what he was comfortable with (because he would have fought for him had he believed he was worth the price tag), I can't think of anyone else he got rid of that shredded the team's depth

that said, I'm not super comfortable with the depth that is left by injury and a possible suspension to Jolly, but most team's go through that when they reach the second and third stringers because if those guys were so great, they wouldn't be second and third stringers...also, let's hope they are talented enough and coached up enough to help the Pack hold things together as the team tries to get healthier

I was just looking at the Packers depth chart at defensive line. I suppose this subject has already been beaten to death, but they are simply terrible. Colin Cole is the only real backup at DT, and he is barely good enough to play.

A single injury ANYWHERE in the D-line and we are looking at a shitty, shitty defense.

TT screwed up. Ya, Justin Harrell going down was unlucky, but what was the response? Nothing. I appreciate TT's strategy of only acquiring players who are a good value, but sometimes you got to be a little flexible.

Back injuries are always very serious. TT should have made a trade as soon as Harrell was injured.

I wonder if he made any serious inquiries? Did he pick up any DT's after the last roster cuts?

Nope. There really was no one to pick up for free and that is the only move TT will make.

Well he can be overpaid and the best option. Normally I would expect T2 to let a youngster have the spot and see what develops, but since he hasn't, I take that as confirmation that KGB is the best current option.

Im not worried about Pickett or KGB, on a side note I love how everyone has said for the past 3 years that KGB is overpaid but if he is hurt the sky is falling.

Grant is another thing altogether! I think he goes down early this year and B Jack has to play and that means throwing the short slants to get the running game going ala Edgar Bennett.

To put you mind at ease Leaper I can confirm I watched every down of the Browns-Cowboys game and Corey Williams could not tell you any of the following:

1)What is it like to get a sack in Cleveland Browns Stadium?

2)What color are Tony Romo's eyes?

3)What kind of gum was Romo chewing?

4)Was Romo wearing cologne?

5)How does it feel to contribute to a win?

6)How does it feel to have multiple tackles?

7)How did that Tackle for Loss work?

Thompson really has shredded the depth on this team from last year. I have not had a really great vibe about this season ever since July.

Saw the same game. PB.

Can't tell you how many times I thought, "Man, I'm so glad we got rid of this dude".

Cleveland plays Williams at LDT, he was a RDT here. He looked like a lost puppy and had very little impact. You'd think the Browns would've used Cory in a similar role he had with the Pack.

It's only one game, but he didn't do squat yesterday.

I watched the game too.

Didn't even know he played. Really.
