WR- Ruvell Martin
RB- Vernad Morency
RB- Noah Herron

DT- Corey Williams-Hard to say on Williams, I can't go any higher than 60%
DT- Colin Cole-Depends if we want him again. With Harrell we might let him walk, but if we want him we can resign him.
SS- Aatri Bigby-98%
DE- Mike Montgomery
OLB- Tracy White

I hope we keep Cole and get rid of that waste of space (Harrell)

Harrell is a rookie, and he is hurt... Give him a chance before you call him a waste of space. He is supposed to be an amazing DT.

neko4 · 11-10-2007, 03:48 PM

Im sorry, but i just hate that we drafted him. Looking at what Lee has done this year picking Olsen wouldnt have made sense but he would have atleast he wouldve been more productive than Harrell and I think has way more potential.

GB12 · 11-10-2007, 06:48 PM

Collins is out 3-4 weeks. That means Detroit and possibly Dallas. Rouse better be able to play

yeah my bad about Clifton. With Colledge best position being LT and having him struggle at LG when do we move him to LT?

neko4 · 11-10-2007, 06:59 PM

Can Tauscher play OG?

When Clifton's gone. We have him under contract until I believe 2010. He's 31 which isn't too old for a lineman, he has some years left in him.

Although Brett Favre has beaten two straight opponents with deep passes late in the game, Sharper, a former Packers teammate, challenged Favre to try going deep again Sunday.

"I can't remember him playing any better than he's playing right now," Sharper said. "Just some of the throws he's making, I hope he tries that against us. Those 50-yard balls over the middle of the field, we'll see how much success he has."

Favre claimed he was hunting earlier this week and hadn't read Sharper's comments, but didn't seem to think it was noteworthy that a defensive back talked about wanting an interception.

"Last I checked, that's his job," Favre said.

Sharper's annoying as hell.

Amazing? According to whom? He was a nice DT with size at Tennessee, but he was injured when he was drafted and he's still injured. He's not in shape due to the injury stiff and there are five guys in front of him. Jamal Reynolds was "amazing" when in college, then he hurt his knee. Taking a guy with that injury problem in R1 when the team needed a TE or a SS was weak. TT did a nice job starting in R3+. BJ and Harrell were hurt when drafted and what's changed? Lots of money being paid to two guys with "amazing" potential but that haven't done a damn thing on the field.Maybe he grows into it and becomes as good as... Pickett? Jolly? Williams? That's nice, but we already actually HAVE those guys, and they're getting it done on the field, not in the Madden Ratings.

Last time he said the only record that Favre was going to break that day was the interception record. And what happened, he broke the TD record and threw no INTs.

If he can't cut it at LG, moving him to LT would likely just make him look worse. He needs to add weight and be more consistent from a mental standpoint.

How great was that last TD. Right threw Sharper's hands, to Martin, for a touchdown. Ouch.

Sharper shouldn't even touched it, it was going to be INTed by the CB until he touched it.

How about KGB with 8.5 sacks on the season. This is clearly the role he was meant for. With him and Kampman we should have 2 players with double digit sacks.

With him and Kampman coming off the edges it so tough for opposing lines especially if one of them has weaknesses b/c those two will be able to exploit it.

Plus KJB is just our passing down specialist.. Jenkins does our gritty work on that side. And how many friggin' good DTs do we have? 8? Our d-line is the best in the biz right now, no question imo.

I absolutely HATE this 3 games in 12 days CRAP that's coming up. Argh, you've gotta think that's going to play strongly against us. Plus one of those games is DALLAS and another is the lions.

Football Fan · 11-11-2007, 05:28 PM

Its nice to see the lions ready to fall. Its been annoying having them on the packers a$$ all season.

A lot of garbage time sacks though. Two in this game alone. Still, he's having a resurgence this season which is nice to see.

Dude, Harrell and Reynolds are nothing alike. Reynolds was too small to play DE in the NFL, and Harrell has prototypical size. That's really all you need to know about the two that makes them opposites. Might Harrell be a bust on Reynolds' scale? Of couse he could, but it's not going to be for the same reasons.

Jim Jim · 11-11-2007, 09:12 PM

Most defensive linemen don't really respond until their second year. I'm confident that Justin will pan out to be a solid pick for us. You can never have enough good defensive linemen.

I disagree. Daryn is a much stronger pass blocker than run blocker, and as such he is much better suited to handle smaller, faster DEs than larger, stronger DTs. He's physically perfect for the ZBS, but yeah, he could stand to put on some muscle. It's gonna be ugly to watch him try to block Rogers, Redding, Harris, and the Williamses 8 times a year if he stays at LG.

ny10804 · 11-11-2007, 11:04 PM

Block of the day: check at Korey Hall cut EJ Henderson on Grant's TD run. Beautiful.
