    I'm simply seeing him in a Pittsburg Steelers jersey. A 'steeley RB' playing for 'the Steelers'. That's the better fit for him; 'common sense' dictates to me.
    But let's not forget Mike McCarthy is a Pittsburgh guy! See the connection?

      I'm often guilty of that in some regard; in my attempt to get 'just the good stuff' on this forum.

      'Just' ... Droping the LINK >>> Article Title, Author and Time Written on a thread.

      For our Forum owner's welfare ... is not 'only' good.

      It's 'the LAW'.

      On that 'getting excited part. I was in a full Packer fan Free Agency Period withdrawal when Steven Jackson joined the Atlanta Falcons. I wish you 'full on' good luck with Ted Thompson and Ahmad Bradshaw.

      I love that RB's grit. He's got the spirit we need on our team to shake things up a wee bit on the sidelines when our players get a tad laxed. You better be in the game when he's playing on your side.

      PACKERS !

          Criminy, some of you all are like 14 year-olds frantically fumbling for your jr. Prom date's bra straps. Relax, it ain't gonna' happen.

          This team is in good shape. Just wait and watch.

            That could be true. If there's a team less active in free agency than the Packers, it might be the Steelers.

              When the reporters asked McCarthy about Bradshaw (they are all in Arizona for Owner's meetings) he was surprised. Always assume its the agent leaking this stuff first. Unless Thompson has gone so far underground that he isn't talking to other people in the building.
              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                    Might be a nice edition to the team. Was listening to SirusXM NFL radio a while back and one of the commentators (I forget who but might have been Amani Toomer) indicated that Bradshaw was very well respected in the locker room and a total team player. He also referenced the toughest guy on the team and how how Bradshaw was a class act.

                    Injury issues are a big concern but then again that's obviously why he's still available. Would love TT to sign him on the cheap as it would be a definite upgrade but won't lose sleep over it when he likely signs with another team. Might be more prone to pick him in fantasy draft though if he were to become a Packer

                            I'd way rather have a rookie than Bradshaw. Bradshaw is a fine runner but he's a fumble machine. A midround pick could get you Monte Ball who might not push the pile much or leave guys in the dust but he'll never lose you a game and has the vision to take what's there. If Monte Ball is a better option than your FA running back that's probably a sign that you should save your money.

                              bradshaw really doesn't excite me at all

                              i don't even see him as a 3 down "feature" back to be honest

                              and like predator says, guy puts the ball on the turf a lot

                                I think Bradshaw is a three down back. He's a good receiver and excellent in pass protection. He is injury prone though. Fumbling problems are a bit exaggerated. He had terrible fumbling problems a few years ago, has never had more than three fumbles in any other year.
                                "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
