56coop – I think that TT probably has a vet lined up to replace Brohm though. Can’t imagine they would choose Booty over Brohm. But, I think most young QB’s would love to be on the Packer’s roster or P.S. just because of MM reputation for coaching up QB’s. Booty with the MN play book would be nice also.

Looks like they actually were able to trade Moll for Ravens CB. Not bad considering they would have to cut him. The new CB probably means Underwood or Lee are on IR for the year. Brohm was cut which really surprises me. I guess they really needed a roster spot for someone else or maybe someone recently released from another team? Thompson does like to churn the bottom of the roster so I think we might see 2-3 new faces on the 53 before the night is done.

You guys think we should try to sign Booty to the practice squad if he clears waivers?

Pretty good line up there Andy. I’ve got to say that I am up in the air re: Hawk. Last year he had the deer in the headlights look (of course he was playing out of position) way too often & I just haven’t seen him arouind the ball that much. Maybe someonoe else needs the “green dotted” helmet. As I said in an earlier post-he needs to become the player he’s supposed to be. Course I’m not sold on Poppinga either but I am wondering if having K Greene as amentor may not be helping him.

Here is my comment regarding Underwood back from the Are you a Packer fan thread

“I just watchced the 2nd half of the Bills game (thank God for DVR & the NFL channel). I then looked at the roster which shows this Underwood (cornerback/Cinncinnatri) kid about the same size as Al Harris as a matter of fact 8 pounds heavier. Maybe it’s these 53 year old eyes but man he looked small. Maybe it’s Harris’ hair. Oh well, doubt he makes the final cut anyway”.

While I’ll admit he seems to be near the ball most of the time I just don’t see that “killer” instinct and feel a good power back or a good downfield blocker would put him on the deck more often than not.

As far as QB’s, pray for Aaron’s health. I’d be for cutting Brohm and bringing in something/anything different. Let’s see who is available tomorrow.
