OTA review so far with Silverstein: https://www.packersnews.com/story/sp...ur/1247116001/

1. Josh Jackson at safety: Asked a direct question, DB coach Jason Simmons said essentially that we call everyone a DB in the room and given that we align in multiple ways under Pettine, anyone could be deep at the back of the defense. Either Spoon knows something we don't, or this is a weak case. Who know, maybe Jackson has spent a lot of time at safety.

2. Gute likes Jamal Crawford at ILB this year. So please put aside your worries. He will no longer be learning OLB.

3. La Fleur wants his QBs to have good footwork, be on time and accurate under duress. This would be a laughable list if not for the injuries and performance of the last 2 years. I hope his offensive design is imaginative or his O line might make his three goals for the QB impossible.

4. Slot receiver. Except for Jake Kumerow, everyone seems to be playing slot receiver. Which I suppose can make sense if the idea is to exploit matchups versus run quick breaking routes that open early. I still don't see Geronimo Allison have the short area quickness for the slot, but I guess we will see.

I see Flower power as being the Bear's offense with more deep shots. There's no reason the Packer O line can't block that up.

Surprise music at Tuesday's OTA: Black Betty by Ram Jam....

That McLean Stevenson was quite the thespian.

When starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga went out of team work Wednesday, Turner slid over and Jenkins entered at right guard. Meanwhile, Lucas Patrick took most of the snaps at center without Linsley.

What the hell is that?

Its Spam lamb!

Only here would a football thread veer into a greek MASH bit. Bravo.

Gary looks awfully a lot like Nick Perry. Check out pics at Packersnews. I was like, didn’t they terminate Perry?

And no, playing Black Betty ain’t racist anymore, as 9 out of 10 black players nowadays, much to the disgust of Tony O’Day, Rut, Shadow, Skinbasket and Rand, among others, prefer “White” Betty. By 2024, the league will be full of entitled, arrogant half-breeds who think they’re so much better than everyone else, just cos they carry both the Negroid-Caucasoid genes.

Half-breeds are awesome. Just ask Aquaman.

Just saw photo of today’s OTA. Here to report Bryan Bulaga is still standing on his own two legs.

Yeah, but could he move? I'm betting they keep him out of Family Night for safety reasons.

Thank you for the great and most informative link. I will be on the lookout for these passing formations. I'm glad that I decided to review this thread. Love the drawn play/video, and hope to see more in the future.

Great post and Thanks.

A draft writer pegs Rashan Gary as a poor first round pick, not due to talent or bust potential, but because of numbers. Accounting for the snaps available from Matthews and Perry with The Smiths acquisitions, leaves less playing time among Fackrell, Gilbert and Gary.

Except Fackrell was essentially a starter for long stretches last year and barring that noted fourth year jump, I am not certain he approaches those snap numbers this year.

And except for the likelihood that Dr. Zaius and Gary taking some inside pass rush snaps from Lowry and Clark this year. Dr. Zaius has rushed inside on obvious passing downs in this defense before. And Gary has already been practicing at that inside spot.

I would not be surprised on long 3rd downs to see Preston-Dr. Zaius-Gary-Fackrell/Gilbert out there on the LOS.

I think it only gets interesting if Mt. Adams or the Northwestern kid suddenly play well enough in pass rush situations to force their hand.
