  1. Apparently I missed the part about him being suggested as a first rounder. To that I'd say, hell no. Later round maybe we can talk but first? No way.
  2. I think you have to factor the style of play in. Quarterbacks like Tom Brady and Drew Brees are definitely built to last longer.
  3. What worries me about him is he's really inconsistent. He has flashes where he looks good. Also has periods where he looks like he has no idea what he's doing.
  4. One semi Panthers related item...
  5. When it comes to behind the scenes stuff, I take Albert Breer over pretty much anybody. Read a lot of his stuff during the ownership search, the coaching search and the GM search. His takes are pretty much always solid.
  6. I'd say Jones is more likely. Honestly, after his Senior Bowl performance I'm not convinced Newman is gonna get drafted at all. Seems more likely he'll catch on as a UDFA somewhere.
  7. Don't know, but as I recall one of the Packers responses to a question about it was "We're not stupid." Definitely don't see them trading him.
  8. A lot easier to do that when you play the style of football they do.
  9. Agreed. He might also be bringing the "let's trade down a lot" mentality here. Kinda wonder how people are gonna feel about that. Either way, sounds like it sure ain't gonna be boring.
  10. Also worth mentioning that whether you accrue a season or not, you can't stop your body from getting a year older.
  11. Which leads to some interesting discussions.
  12. Side Note: This kind of coverage I can get behind.
  13. It'll be kicking into high gear this week. Planning to watch or is it just an unpleasant reminder that we're not in it (and Tampa is)?
  14. I do think using that high a pick on a potential replacement for a quarterback you're now saying you have no plans to part ways with plays out as being kind of goofy. Rodgers has complained before about the team not giving him enough help. He might have a point.
  15. My thing with Jones is that I kind of wonder if Rhule and Fitterer might disagree on him. Rhule genuinely seems to like him, but we don't really know what Fitterer thinks. You can kind of infer from their comments that Fitterer puts a higher value on arm strength than Rhule does, but that's kind all speculation.
  16. Very possible. I'm also interested in what happens if they can't make a deal. Then what?
  17. That's the thing. Is he doing a terrible job or did he just make a terrible choice? The Packers did at least make it to the NFC championship this year.
  18. Rhule officially has final say on the roster but has said that he isn't interested in that. He's not gonna be taking part in the personnel acquisition process outside of talking to Scott Fitterer about what they want.
  19. In a similar vein... Call me crazy, but I kind of think using your first round pick on someone other than a guy who became your third string quarterback might have improved things just a little.
  20. Albert Breer and Peter King, among others. Plenty of people have reported on the story. Simms is the only one to say this. And it's not like PFT is known for complete accuracy in their reporting.
  21. Just for fun, a reminder of something David Tepper said about why he liked Matt Rhule... "He dresses like (bleep) and sweats all over himself. He dresses like me, so I have to love the guy." I don't think he's commented on Scott Fitterer's fashion sense yet
