Met this guy in the Atlanta airport on his way out of Green Bay. Nice kid. He loved Green Bay. I hope he makes it.

Uncle Rico! (I thought he was a QB)

"Based on the lack of quality offensive linemen for the 13 time World Champs, both Forbes and John Fullington (the other Cougar lineman that the Pack recently signed), have a better than average shot at making the roster."

I'm sure nobody likes to see that, but if you do an honest evaluation, I'd say the Pack has one rock solid OL in Sitton, and one average to above average in Lang. At center, whoever wins the job likely hasn't taken an NFL snap yet. At RT, it's a limited Barclay or a guy in Bulagua who has never started a full season. The returning LT starter was a rookie pressed into action who played ok.

I'd say the only position on the line that is not up for grabs is Sitton's LG position, and he might even move back to RG is someone else shows enough there!

The Packers view Lang in higher regard than you seem to.

Better than above average? *shrug* I guess maybe, but that's where I'd put him. I think he's good, which is why I said above average. That would likely be an improvement for the rest of the line (excluding of course, Sitton) this coming season.

Right now, the Packers O-line is nothing special. at all.

They would.

That would be his school site. He's a RT.

Well, they blocked for the run rather well. Keeping the QB upright blocking was a little dicier.

Sure, they don't suck, and they do some things well. If Dallas O-line of the early nineties is a ten, this group is a 4 or 5. Ho, hum.

But with Bulaga back, Bak no longer a rookie and either Tretter or Linsley at C our line might be better than some think.

Add in the potential that some here see in Sherrod...

The Oline has been a mess since TT messed with it. He clearly has no idea about picking Olinemen through the draft or free agency. He more than makes up for it in position players, but this is the time of year that we post about the eternal "mights" and "ifs" that have characterised our Oline since the days of Wahle/Clifton/Taucher/Rivera/Flanagan(wells).

This is the year the oline is good!

Might. And if my aunt had a dick we might call her my uncle. Don't get me wrong, I hope it's an improved unit as well, but this conversation started because a UDFA (or his agent?) said there was a lack of quality offensive linemen. I'm saying he's not necessarily wrong.
