Packers' Off Season Moves and 2017 Roster

[pbmax]

Michael has some skills, but he's screwed up mentally. He's played for all these teams, it's got his mind fogged. He needs to save his dancing for the dance floor. Make your cut and go, kid. He's got potential, this is a critical year for him.

Yeah, he has to slow to 1/2 speed in the backfield, make a read then accelerate. They should clockwork orange him with James Starks footage (Super Bowl version, not last year's version).

Packers to interview former Washington DL Ricky Jean Francois. http://www.jsonline.com/story/sports...cois/99475100/

He was released by Washington last week.

Did he leave town without a contract?

The Green Bay Packers have some interest in a visit with Peterson, but it's believed that might not happen until after the team can take stock of its roster following the draft.

Not in favor. Though I am not sure I want a RB in the first to prevent it.

he didn't get there until late so he probably spent the night and is seeing them today.

Yeah, its a duplicate, but I want this thread to stay up to date.

Former Washington DT Ricky Jean Francois signed a one-year, $3M deal with Packers, per source.

[gbgary]

so who's spot does he fill?

[Zool]

so he basically takes datone's spot then.

I think he'd be in the DT/DE rotation not the OLB.

he was drafted as a de but failed that. one experimental series of games doesn't qualify him as an olb in my book.

Wasn't Datone elephant all season this year? Francis will be Guion's replacement in base and a rotation guy in Wist's favorite 2-4 formation and I would think. Daniels, Clark, Franky/Guion in 3-4.

[pbmax]

Datone was OLB all year last year.

I'm not buying that the Packers have had any interest whatsoever in Peterson. I think it's just all bullshit smoke and mirrors thrown up by his agent. Notice how during every free agency period the Pack always gets used by the agents as one of the teams that is interested in so and so. I think they do this because they know that T.T. and the Pack are so tight lipped that nobody will refute their alleged, "interest".

After the draft makes it a bit dubious too. Could easily be a polite brush off.

"We'd love to talk to you about Purple Jesus, but its going to have to be some time after the draft when we know where we stand."

[hoosier]

so who's spot does he fill?

Guion's.

Rumors are swirling around that LeGarrette Blount is set to sign with the Packers....would be a great move in my book.
