Bobblehead?

I tweeked my ring finger typing my response.

It appears Bulaga did play on the knee after hurting it. However, it's unclear when Bulaga told anyone on the training staff that his knee hurt.

I apologize Red. I swore I read last year that he limped off the field after playing one additional snap from when he first got up favoring the leg. Its pretty impressive to continue on after tearing a ligament.

Speaking of playing on ...

Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde 59s
Per @abbrecadabra's dad, he hurt his knee WEDNESDAY. RT @thROBmarley: His dad wrote on facebook he'll miss the year.

Tough luck for Abbrederis. From what I'd read about Abbrederis' camp so far, it's unlikely they would have cut him, but part of me thinks this could be a blessing in disguise for him. He'll have time to get healthy, stronger, and well-versed in the offense. It probably hurts the special teams more than anything this year.
I've been getting the impression the last WR spot was going to be either Dorsey or White, my guess is they both make it (if they keep 6 WRs, which I think they will). I like Harper but think he ends up on the PS (or signed off of it). I suppose the injury helps out Janis' chances as well but I think he gets invited to join the PS too.

Because I will never remember this.

Richard Rodgers freshman and sophomore: TE at 270 pounds
junior: split end at 245
combine: 260 and a 4.87 40

The quote makes me think he can be especially effective in the red zone. If he's a good blocker and can box guys out to make catches for TDs, he doesn't have to be particularly fast to give them flexibility there.

Yeah, tough for the kid but it probably factors well into GBs team building plans.

I hope you do well in rehab.

Not exactly progress, but at least Bach isn't a world ahead. http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packe...269710611.html

At times, the pass rush was heavy. "This is the best I've seen it," said DE Mike Daniels, referring to the first week. If play had been live, there probably would have been five sacks. LB Jayrone Elliott beat T Derek Sherrod and T Jeremy Vujnovich for sacks. Daniels notched one against G John Fullington and another against T David Bakhtiari. LB Adrian Hubbard beat T Don Barclay.

Davon House blanketed Jarrett Boykin for about five seconds covering multiple moves in one-on-ones, prompting Aaron Rodgers just to eat the ball.

WR Chris Harper's hands have been far too erratic. He dropped a 55-yard bomb from Tolzien behind the defense.

Packer Report @PackerReport 2h
Asked Moss about his quote saying Perry had done "zero." He said it was "taken out of context." At the time, he hadn't worked with Perry.

Great quote on Lacy:

Sam Gash on Lacy: "He looks like what they call in the NFL, a 'dude.' If he gets off the bus first, I'm going to be nervous."

What time does practice start today?

What time does practice start today?

It's a late one. 5:30 P.M. I believe.

Khyri Thornton wastes his man in this half-line drill. Couldn't tell who. Vid clips up later tonight.

Packers working in the red zone now. Aaron Rodgers rolls right, throws a touchdown to Jake Stoneburner who finds a soft spot in the middle.

Clay Matthews "sacks" Rodgers on a blitz. Datone Jones there, too. Tough TD grab by Quarless nonetheless, held by Richardson going down.

Khyri Thornton destroys Lane Taylor in one on one pass rush. He's having a good practice.

First real scuffle: JC Tretter strikes Robinson in the head in 1 on 1's, Robinson retaliates. T.J. Lang chimes in with a jab, everyone joins

One guy flashing in zone on one pass rush is 6-3 255 lb OLB Jayrone Elliott. Beat Sherrod and Barclay.

Rodgers to Rodgers on a deep slant in 11 on 9 segment. Tight end a large man who can move.

Nelson over the middle but Richardson is there. He's consistently around the ball.

Another play by Jake Stoneburner. Diving out route, for 20 yards, from Scott Tolzien.

Flynn to Dorsey down left sideline for TD. Dennard beat badly.

Packers mixing it up. Now, Clinton-Dix and Richardson get a series with the first defense.

[bobblehead]

Can they keep Richardson out of the starting lineup? He sounds like the safety most consistently doing positive things.

[smuggler]

He's the best athlete of the bunch. If he keeps making plays, he's got to see the field.
