Official 2012 Training Camp Discussion Thread

It's Cosby with the hamstring, not Crosby.

I'm still scared by that post.

I think they're keepign the extra 10 cut players around because they're so injured. Would suck to be one of those guys, just waiting around for the ax.

Finley only healthy TE in practice today. So'oto playing some at TE.

Worthy replacing Pickett with 1's.

Really? Don't we have like 9 of them in camp (or at least did, before the first cut down)?

Yes, but five of the inured are TEs. They were down to Finley and Bostick. So'oto and Lattimore played TE on scout team.

Sherrod hitting targets and getting closer to practicing. Still some targets to clear. Maybe avoid PUP?

I'm puzzled by his rehab. From McCarthy's presser, they seem to have him doing hurdles and practicing archery.

House will not require surgery for now, but will have to wear a brace all season. If the shoulder pops out again, then surgery would be necessary. He could be back next week.

Can Alex Barron play Tackle anymore? Was released by Seahawks at same time as TO.

This team is really starting to round into shape. Some of the big question marks are being answered.

Our LT seems to have made big strides from a year ago

We have young secondary players stepping up: Hayward, McMillan, Burnett. We have young pass rushers stepping up: Perry, Worthy, Moses. We have a RB stepping up: Benson. Our WR corp is looking dynamite. Finley is ready to rumble. DJ Williams has had an excellent camp. ST's look amazing.

The defense is a "work in progress." That's the cliche we've heard for a couple weeks now, but they look talented and laden with a few more playmakers than a year ago. The way this defense is built, it looks like we'll have to win with ST's and offense early, but they'll round into decent shape when it matters most.


We've had some good teams the last 5 years. IMO, this is the best Packer team we've seen since the 96 championship team. Maybe better.

Even better than the 96 team?

Thanks for the memories.

Man, you just knew that team was going to go all the way. The way they had been built and peaking over the years was really fun to watch.

This team will contend but I don't get the sense of Manifest Destiny that I did with the '96 Team.

Lets wait to have this discussion in February 2013.

Don't question the man's methods. Wax on, wax off. Get on the bus and shoot skeet. Archery strengthens the mind, body and spirit.

If you can't beat the Clown, how will you beat Shooter?
