Then Watt made Luck the number one overall pick. Then drafted Mario, Barwin and Quinn , getting the band back together

Justin Hardy and Evin Smith topped the wide receivers crop.

East Carolina’s Hardy, 5-10, 190, reminded Pauline of the Packers’ Jordy Nelson. “He doesn’t wow you physically but he’s just a terrific football player, a guy I think will be underdrafted. He might run in the high 4.4’s; third or fourth-round area. Will compete at the next level as No. 3 or No. 4 receiver.

I immediately had to look him up....and he's NOT white! We've come a long way guys.

I could see the Packers allowing Hawk to ride out the final year of his contract, but damn, save almost 4M by cutting him. 1.6 dead money. Can't tell me that money couldn't be better spent on retaining Cobb and or Bulaga (one of them is going to get signed either way, maybe even both).

Some Giant fans are talking about Bulaga coming to NYG. I wondered how much money he's looking at, but if he did it would be at RT. Surely Green Bay offers more for him.

All I can still think of when I hear AJ Hawk is him not falling back to defend the wide open man in the end zone on that fake punt.

So I don't think it'll be a huge shock if the Browns end up getting Mark Sanchez.

There are a lot of guys in our coaching staff who were coaching for the Jets the year they went to the AFC Championship.

They don't really need it and you realize that means Brad Jones, starting ILB.

They can sign Cobb, tag Bulaga and have plenty of room left over for Shields. That way they'll have more money in 2016 to sign Bulaga to a long term deal.

Can't argue getting stripped of play calling is a good look. Jerry loves to micromanage. But if Garrett is a "yes-man", then Jerry re-built the team, Jerry created an environment conducive to winning. I just don't see that.

Meanwhile, reports suggest that his son and Will McClay handle the personnel side of things with heavy influence from the coaching staff. Garrett came in and they end up drafting corner stone players, they limit big free agent signings, and built the team up from abysmal mediocrity. Garrett can navigate Jerry like no other coach. Dude was made for this role and has his fingerprints all over the team.

I've always liked Garrett as a person, and it's nice to see his strategy finally paying off.

i was thinking, both him and Jones have one year left. And Jones actually saves more cap with less dead money, but it's just rare to see the Packers do that, so yeah, it's probably not happening to either guy.

I actually think they will definitely cut Jones. Towards the end of the year he was basically only a special teams player. In the last 6 weeks he played an average of 8% of defensive snaps, mostly due to them playing him a fuckton against Buffalo (where he played well...he's a good run stuffer).

I hate this part of the season where people see players simply as dollar signs as opposed to their worth on the field.

I mean, it's pretty obvious that Brad Jones has negative worth on the field, every number backs that up. Hawk has limited value depending on down/distance. The only "value" they possess is through attrition. The Packers only have one ILB, Barrington. So they need to keep AND start either Jones or Hawk.

I'm bored of "inflate gate". Seems like a nothing thing in the grand scheme of things.

The only thing to hope for now in the next 8 months is to resign all of our guys, draft an ILB, smarten up our defense somehow, and cut Brad Jones.

Some Giants fans are in denial. There's a 1% chance that Green Bay will let go of Bulaga.

I'm not as familiar with Capers and the Pack defense. How likely is it they start a rookie at ILB with Hawk or Jones still likely on the team??

I cannot even fathom a scenario where Bulaga isn't a Packer next year. He's an obvious tag.

Well, they are very comfortable with Barrington now so I could see it happening. Hawk and Jones were on the sidelines a fair bit the second half of the year.

Former Raiders HC Tony Sparano is being hired as 49ers' TE coach, per sources. Stays right in Bay Area.


That's a pretty serious fall. At least he's still in the league, I guess.

Better than the options we already have...which isn't saying much, but still.

Wow that's a ridiculous drop. Why not just go coach in college?
