  • Update on fergy

    packer news has a little line that says fergies agent wasn't even aware that he missed the scrimage

    The agent for receiver Robert Ferguson said he didn't know his client missed Saturday's scrimmage for personal reasons. The Packers said only that he missed because of a family matter. "I didn't know that (he missed it), actually," agent Brian Overstreet said. McCarthy said he wasn't upset by Ferguson's absence: "It's a family matter, he needs to be where he is."
    wouldn't the agent know if there was a death in the family? and wouldn't a good agent be there with his client at that time?

    then again wouldn't the agent know if robert was being held out because of an upcoming trade?

    i guess as long as MM says its ok, then its ok. i just find it odd that an agent has no clue where his client is

    I think you are reading too much into it. It could be that it was a last minute thing. Some players and their agents are tight. Others aren't. Maybe Ferguson's agent is not the first person he calls in an emergency.
    "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

      Maybe we're getting a bit of disinformation while a deal is in the works. I can only hope ...

        So unlike the Warren Moon/Leigh Steinberg relationship, Agent Brian Overstreet is an unlikely choice to give the introductory speech when Ferguson is inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame?

            This felt like a trade involving Robert Ferguson, just as soon as I was aware that he wasn't at Sat's Family Night scrimmage.

            Robert Ferguson is so on the trading block, Packer fans.Too much points to that.

            Let's hope it is a trade for NOW.

                  I think you're all reading way too much into this.
                  I'd guess that Fergy got a late call about a sickness/death in the family and immediately hopped on a plane after informing McCarthy without talking to his agent.

                    Who cares about missing Family Night!!

                    I want to knwo where he was in 2005 when he had a starting gig and no walker to have to share catches with. He needs to take a pay cut and stay on STs.

                      the thing that makes me think there isn't a trade in the works, and thats not why he missed is because when they were giving away players jersies to the crowd after the game they gave away a fergy driver.

                      would you really give away a jersey of a guy you're going to trade with all the other fan favorites?

                        Can any of us read T2 clearly yet? He's a different fella.

                        I'm going to see what's spinning out there, to see if it may reflect on this issue.

                          Ted Thompson would trade his mother if he thought she'd bring a draft pick.

                            TT is so cheap he was probably giving those away because he can't sell them anymore. There was probably a few Walker and Flannigan jersey's in there too.

                              If we got Porter that'd be great.
