Official Packers Offseason News, Non Draft, Non Big Ticket FA

Won't happen. Nothing to see here.

source?

I just read an article on Packers 24/7 saying the Packers are NOT expected to sign Dez - THANKFULLY!

Bryant's "rare physical gifts" have faded drastically the last few years, and his penchant for pouting and disrupting a team are as strong as ever. Having seen him play for my second favorite team, I DON'T WANT ANY PART OF HIM!

That plus the fact that we have 9 or 10 quality WRs now, and probably can't keep more than 6 or 7 at most.

without a team source quoted they're just guessing too. sure he's not what he was but he's better than allison. he'll be super motivated too. i'd consider him for the one year (i'll show the cowboys, and the rest of the league, they fucked up) contract he says he wants.

I don't have a team source, but outside of Dougherty and Demovsky, no one has a better pipeline into the Packers than Ian Rapaport, he of the oft-denied but ultimately true move toward smaller, quicker D lineman.

Rap Sheet says:

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet
New TV analyst Jason Witten isn't wrong. The #Packers have been considered a possible Dez Bryant landing spot... but they aren't engaged now and nothing is imminent.

Which is a very kind and long way to put this fact forward: everyone seems to think its a good idea except the Packers.

Which also means that all this stuff probably stems from Dez's side of the aisle.

I guess this qualifies as Packer news?

For a guy who kept his mouth shut and played the game, Witten isn't taking too long to get into the swing of things, stirring shit and creating headlines instead of reporting on them.

Dez to the Packers? I highly doubt it.

That's not happening for too many reasons and why?

1. The Packers invested heavy in the Draft and WR; and what is remaining of their CAP as any potential offer?

2. If he was signed as a Packer!? Will Dez suddenly arrive in 'the Green And Gold' and play football and stop with the child like drama (s)?

3. What might the Packers be willing to even possibly offer Dez Bryant on 'a prove it one year Vet contract' Vs what Dez believes he is worth?

4. Will Dez Bryant be worth the risk and be that NO. 1/2 WR the Packers really need to upgrade what looks like 'a Pop Gun Offense' and the WR Position?

Still available in free agency:

1. Luke Joeckel, who was a bust at tackle but had switched to guard in the last two years.
2. Connor Barwin
3. Brett Celek - another in a long line of Eagle TEs I like but cannot distinguish between. It started with Jeff Thomason.

That plus the fact that we have 9 or 10 quality WRs now, and probably can't keep more than 6 or 7 at most.

I count 4 QUALITY players, if you throw Jimmy G in at WR.

1. Adams: Not a bona fide #1. A concussion or two away from retirement.

2. Cobb: Glad he's still donning the Green and Gold, but diminutive body can only take so many hits.

3. Graham: Love the signing, but Graham's not a bomb threat.

4. MVS: Speed is awesome, but a rook. Rooks usually take time to develop.

The rest are, to paraphrase Dr. Strange, insignificant matters rotting away in an indifferent universe. Gute needs to sign Dez. Quick.

Gute needs to sign Dez. Quick.

“The [inability] to win one-on-one, to win downfield. There was inconsistency, as well as some huge things in his play. … It’s a production-based business,” Cowboys vice president of player personnel Will McClay explained in a radio interview on ESPN 103.3 FM.

His own team's view of him.

Rob Demovsky @RobDemovsky
Free agent CB Bashaud Breeland is visiting the Colts today and scheduled to visit the Cardinals tomorrow, a source said. His foot issue is healed and he’s expected to be able to pass all medical tests. He had been one of the top corners on the market in March.

I'm on board for Barwin again; dude is a personality with an endless motor.

I think he was injured part of last year and if memory is right (too lazy to look up) I think he had 6.5 sacks.

GET ER DONE GOOTERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fritz]

Man, Bretsky, seems like you been liking Connor Barwin since 2009.

Marcedes Lewis in for a Packers visit. would automatically be the #2 te.

34 but TEs age slower than WRs, so sign him up. Dude can block.
