Official 2019 Training Camp Thread

[RashanGary]

9 damn days! Sounds like the offense is ready to play! AR and Bakh groovin! First Shannahan offense with advanced audible option in certain situations! Lafleur says practice is sharp and detailed! First time all camp he’s been happy with the tempo and detail.

We’re ready!!!!

[RashanGary]

MLF glowing about OL starters. Said the ol and QB made a quick transition into his offense possible. Said he didn’t have words to describe how monumental they’ve been in getting this thing on track.

[Fritz]

I hope he really meant all that.

Burks was back but in limited capacity, maybe out for stretching or warmups, but still rehabbing.

@BillHuberSI
Oren Burks said it was a partial tear of his pectoral, which is why he’ll be able to play without surgery.

@WesHod
Luke Getsy will call plays against KC per Matt LaFleur #Packers

@WesHod
Corey Linsley returned to practice today. Twelve others didn’t practice: Allen Lazard, St. Brown, Kevin King, Ibraheim Campbell, Curtis Bolton, Oren Burks, Malcolm Johnson, Kabion Ento, Greg Roberts, Cole Madison, Jimmy Graham, Reggie Gilbert #Packers

Initial thoughts? Training up a guy with less experience? Maybe not as wedded to calling plays as we thought (though unlikely to change this year)? Giving his QB coach the opportunity to demonstrate his mastery of the offense?

Distraction. M4 isn't giving it up. This is just a little reward for being a good team player.

[pbmax]

No way they can afford him, but a second round pick is nuts for this guy.

@AlbertBreer
The Texans did engage teams on Jadeveon Clowney some in the spring. The belief then, according to multiple clubs involved, was that he could be had for a second-round pick.

MM often gave up play calling for the last preseason game too, so he could focus on watching players performance without the distraction of play calling. As I recall, a few year ago, they even let Aaron Rodgers call plays for a quarter or half in the last preseason game.

If they could get Clowney to agree to a contract, they could trade Smith I or Smith II plus a draft pick for him. Some might say Gary plus a draft pick

Wasn't that one of the Matt Flynn years?

If we trade Gary, his loss will make everybody better

Kinda like Michigan..

It’s remarkable how the entire trajectory of Gary’s career has taken place all in the short span of training camp. From raw rookie to learning pro to all pro talent to a fading talent who needs to retire to make the team better. We’ve experienced it all. It’s been quite a ride, fellas. Quite a career. Sad to see him go.

yup. smh

yup. but it seems like bs coach-speak to me. they've been rusty looking coming out of the gates for years...and that was with an O they all knew. how can all these leopards suddenly change their spots?

[RashanGary]

Bakh 27 - top tier talent in prime
Taylor 29 - average starter in prime
Lindsley 28 - borderline pro bowler in prime
Turner 27 - average starter or better in prime
Bulaga 30 - good starter last year or so of his prime

Nobody coming off serious injury. Everybody had a full or almost full camp working next to each other. Unlike last year where Bulaga and Taylor were recovering from serious injury and Bell/McCray was our RG.... we’re in much better shape going into this year. Plus Jenkins and Light are better than anyone we had on the bench last year. I do believe MLF when he says this veteran group has their shit together and helped him install his offense as seamlessly as he could have hoped for. Well, all the OL experience and the QB.
