The only way the Packers will make a splash in free agency is if they throw a free agent into a pool.

This guy sounds like an above average camp body.

yup

[MadtownPacker]

Nice one MS.

That guy is the Bretsky of DBs.

Why does every article about Packer free agency start "It's not the big splash..."

Yea sure! The word is that this dude is on his way to Green Bay to see Ted. Health issues!? No problem.



Airports and connections!? Again ... no problem. Now that it's warming up he's got his own ride.



Sign him Ted.

Guy looks like a candidate to return punts and/or kicks if nothing else.

Could be. Of course, the same could have been said, and probably was, about Tramon Williams and Sam Shields.

A good cfl cb has excellent closing speed but more importantly route recognition. A good cfl cb is not let go in the offseason. He may be the type of cb who tries to stick on a wr hip, Woody or Guiness you guys watch him at all?

Hi Upnorth:

Loyce Means (Senior) University Houston Tigers 2010. Born March 31,1989. He was with the University of Houston Tigers as a Senior in the 2010 season. Tomorrow March 31 2013 he's only 24 years old. He must be some smart.

Here's his NFL.COM Profile. Look at that ! Here he's 5' - 11" tall. Young and growing. That's that Kraft dinner.

http://www.nfl.com/player/loycemeans/2530716/profile

2011 Draft Information - Rated 31st out of 182 College Draft prospects:

http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=70941&draftyear=2011&genpos=CB

He's 5'-10 ' tall (maybe? 5'-11") and about 180 lbs. Speedy - 225 lb Bench Rep's = 14. Projected as a Rd.7/FA with a high of Rd. 5-6.

I'm trying to track down all I can on this 'mystery man' right now. Evidently he was signed by the Hamilton Tiger Cats to their Practise Roster in Sept. 2011. He spent some time with both the Buffalo Bills and Carolina Panthers organizations.

Here's the best I've seen on him so far:

http://lombardiave.com/2013/03/30/so-who-is-loyce-means/

He's a CB and if TT brings in a couple more CB's ... great!

It appears as if he has made plays. It appears he's fast. It appears that he's bulked up. He may be 5' 11" and 190 lbs (now). He was light at 177 lbs. coming out of college.

He's obviously smart. He made the Deans list at some point in College. He's still young.

He's someone we might pull for. Certainly someone to push our incumbant CB's to improve.

He's a potential new signing. NEWS that won't cost the Packers alot.

GO PACK GO !

I like it too. For Packer fans in the off-season, getting a skinny, fast, cornerback from the Canadian football league who didn't play at all last year is like kids at fat camp finding a container of Tic-Tacs. The excitement is real, and yet a little pathetic.

This Packer fan pissed in the barn yard he was so excited.
