He would save his reputation here, but it would likely complicate further negotiations with other teams or players. It's safer to just not say anything. Some fans will be upset no matter what you do.

I was going to say that he is consistent in doing this and not bad mouthing players, which is good policy I guess. I'm just not at the acceptance stage yet."When it's third and ten, you can take the milk drinkers and I'll take the whiskey drinkers every time" Max McGee -
We could afford to pay Javon Walker now...Originally posted by BrohmUnless TT thinks Corey Williams is the second coming of Reggie White and wants to blow 17 mil, I have no idea what they will spend it on. Maybe we can count the new turf/grass against the salary cap
O wait... to late...

There's 11 guys he's going to need to sign after this weekend, and Free Agency doesn't end until later this summer.Originally posted by BrohmUnless TT thinks Corey Williams is the second coming of Reggie White and wants to blow 17 mil, I have no idea what they will spend it on.

Just got off the golf course anyone give me a recap?Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.Comment

You are signed into Insider and have access to the exclusive draft content below.
Strengths: Has a quick first step, does an adequate job of anticipating the snap and flashes the ability to disrupt plays in the backfield. Has adequate upper body strength and flashes the ability to shed blocks quickly. Possesses good range, takes good angles to the ball and is relentless in pursuit. Possesses good athletic ability, appears comfortable in space and is a reliable tackler. Shows good closing speed and takes the shortest path to the quarterback. Generally gets hands up when isn't going to get to the quarterback and is tall enough to get hands on some passes.
Weaknesses: While he has steadily improved, he still lacks ideal starting experience. He is raw and needs lots of help in terms of his footwork and hand-usage. He shows flashes of big-play potential but continues to be too inconsistent. He lacks ideal lower body strength and plays too high at times, so he has some problems holding ground when teams run at him. Doesn't play with a great base, doesn't always use hands well and needs to polish overall technique. Marginal score on the Wonderlic Test.
Overall: Johnson originally attended Mississippi Delta Community College before arriving at Mississippi State prior to the 2005 season. For the year he saw action in all 11 games as the third defensive tackle during his junior season and made 15 total tackles, three tackles-for-loss and 2.5 sacks. In 2006 Johnson appeared in all 12 games, with five starts, registering 21 total tackles, four tackles for loss, two fumble recoveries, and one blocked kick.
Johnson is an unpolished and inconsistent prospect that never served as a fulltime starter at the DI-A level. However, it's hard to ignore his excellent combination of size and agility. While he is far from a finished product, Johnson has more natural tools to work with than most late-round draft picks, which is why we think he's an intriguing project as an late-around pick from the 2007 class.

Rouse saying the right things
You can probably already call Virgina Tech's Aaron Rouse a cheesehead.
On being drafted by the Packers: "I get to play with the legendary Brett Favre. I'm just trying to learn from guys like that. I'm just trying to contribute to the history of the Green Bay Packers in a good way."
About not being drafted until late in the third round: "That just supplies me with the fuel I need to play harder. For all the teams that slept on me, and took other guys before me, I'm just going to go out and prove that those other teams were wrong about me. I've got a chip on my shoulder, and it's shaped like a piece of cheese.""When it's third and ten, you can take the milk drinkers and I'll take the whiskey drinkers every time" Max McGeeComment

We took an OT in round 4. Allen Barbre. Apparently he was a monster in D-II and plays mean from whistle to whistle. He needs to work a little on technique and strength, but he sounds like a good pick for down the road. The folks here were pretty happy about it.Originally posted by Tony Oday</delurk>Comment

We had $21 million before the Barnett signing. Barnett cost $7.225 million against the cap this year, which drops it to $14 million. Also, subtract $6 million for rookies, and there's $8 million under the cap. Maybe sign a couple of player after cuts, emergency injury FA's or extend a contract or two at the end of the seasonOriginally posted by packers11Doesn't the packers have over 17 mill in cap room... How are they going to spend it now??? I thought for sure they were saving some for Moss...
