Assuming both are healthy and will be healthy, do you prefer Tretter or Linsley?

I like Linsley, imo he's a more gritty, hard nosed player. But honestly I think they would be fine with either. I would really like to see Tretter stay in GB.

J.C. Tretter dressed for 31 and started only 10 games in four seasons.

Tretter is the superior player, but health is an issue it seems.

will stay at running back.

It will be interesting to see what number he takes.

He also needs work on his blitz pickup.

That feels like above average for our starters this year...

I like this Montgomery kid. I'm rooting for him.

Me too. I know some people have expressed concern about his durability and I share that concern as well. Hopefully he'll take the offseason to learn how to run lower and behind his pads more. As has also been mentioned, he needs to learn how to pass protect more reliably but I don't see that being a long-term concern.

I'm convinced he'll be a serious weapon as long as he can stay healthy. He and a healthy and stealthy Lacy would make a serious combination. Lacy obviously doesn't need to be 230 but I'm a bit worried about his taste for southern cooking.

he was 7 at st. marks in dallas but Hundley has that. he'll take Starks' 44 (half of 88).

[vince]

He'll take his 88 jersey, get himself some white duct tape at the Walmart, and turn it into a 38.

Anyone remember that Favre to Havner jersey transformation video?

Wow, finally something where you and I think alike.

Yup !

Getting that new number on his jersey will make all the difference.

McGinn's numbers:

Of the Packers’ 72 games over the last four seasons, he was healthy enough to play in just 35.

Linsley seems to be similar: 58 games in his 3 years, seems to have been active for 38, played in 28.

If you eliminate the freak broken ankle during a fumble recovery drill in his rookie season, Tretter is at 31 possible games, 23 available.

Didn't Linsley get hurt last year while working out? If he would have been a couch potato he would have been available for more games.

Don't remember.

But Tretter doesn't seem any more injury prone than Linsley. I hope he comes back.

I also think Bob is dead wrong on Spriggs. I saw very little that discouraged me about his pro prospects. He will be a better Tackle than Guard, but I bet he could be a Guard if they committed to it.
