    I like the signing, nothing special but adds depth to the D-line.

      "Merling, whose signing was announced in a press release by the Packers, was a second-round pick by the Dolphins in 2008.

      In 46 games he had 66 tackles, eight pass deflections, 3.5 sacks, two fumble recoveries and an interception returned for a touchdown." fr. LINK

        Someone needs to do an intervention with Ted.

        I am starting to worry about him.

        (I like it, though.)

          Can we call the guy "Merling the Magician" if he deflects a few passes?

          What was surprising to me is that they cut Nick Hill. I thought they kinda liked the guy?

            I like the signing too... couldn't have been too expensive, and he should be an upgrade over Wynn and Wilson.

            The front seven is looking light years better than last offseason.

              Looks like a football player to me. Hope he gives us a few good years.

                Well thank goodness TT signed a football player and not a pro fisherman. That would have been embarassing.

                  I actually chuckled out loud. Good job.

                    I read a GBPG chat today that said Nick Hill just didn't have an NFL arm and it was obvious in both the rookie orientation and the first OTA.

                        LOVE the signing; honestly I really loved Merling coming out of college......perhaps his worst curse

                        In the end TT is doing a nice job trying to displace the riff raff with little to no upside with better players with upside
                        TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

                          TT is signing free agents and Wist sounds optimistic! Where will this madness end?
                          I can't run no more
                          With that lawless crowd
                          While the killers in high places
                          Say their prayers out loud
                          But they've summoned, they've summoned up

                            CJ Wilson still looks like the starting DE in base D. Its not done yet.
                            Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                              What's not done? The madness of all these signings, or the competition?

                              I hope Bretsky no longer likes Merling; look what his love has done for the Merlinator so far in his career...
