Yeah they signed him to the PRACTICE squad. And that’s going to help us this Sunday how?

Never fear all is solved. Packers signed Stanly Daniels G 328 lbs. 2008 NYJ Practice Squad, 2007 Undrafted FA -St. L.

Dropped Dane Randolph!

Hmmmmmm! How could nayone be cheaper than Dane Randolph?

What don’t we know about Tauscher’s injury and recovery? Chiefs are bringing him in for a tryout. Could he be worse than Barbre? Apparently so.

Our o-line looked so good during the pre-season. They looked season-ready. Instead, they collapsed like a bunch of lawn chairs on a windy day.

Eagles certainly didn;t hang on to Garcia very long. Just rehired Jeremiah Trotter & dumped Garcia

Thigpen just got traded to the Dolphins for an undisclosed draft pick.. I’m still worried about our backup QB situatio nalso. Especially as much as Aaron’s getting hit.

I think it is promising that they are looking at addressing an obvious issue. The question is, will they actually sign him?

Somebody has already said this but our Oline has been too bad for too long. That falls on the O line coach. We need a new one. And also for TT to remove his upper end from his lower end.

Yesterday MM said Clifton had made significant progress and could play Monday, barring a reversal. That is very good news. It doesn’t hurt a thing to bring in some vets to see if they can help stablize the line.

According to sources Tauscher is almost ready to go and he will sign with some team soon. He could give the Packers an opportunity to further develop at least 3 positions and not give up the season entirely. Don’t forget, Clifton’s contract is up this year. That means TT will have two tackle holles to fill next year. Options to fill both in the off season are limited. FA or trade is not something TT is likely to do. Evidence – off-season 2009. His plan was probably to move Colledge to LT and Lang to LG. The plan was predicated on Barbre becoming a competent RT. Well, at best, that’s a work in progress.

So, go for some vets to give more immediate depth at Tackle. The only backup they have now is Breno and he wasn’t even activated the first to games (not sure about Sunday). Other backups, 1 rookie LG and one rookie RG/C. Not good enough! When Clifton went down what happened? Something MM said he would not do again. He had to suffle players around the line because his backups are not ready to play.
