What if they were really confident that Ringo cleared waivers and went on the PS and they lost that gamble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanfb Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I'll say this: 1. I'm fine with the Ringo/RJF switch. We are deep on the DL with the addition of Dial so I'd almost rather have Ringo who may have a little more burst as an inside rusher. 2. Gunter > Pipkins. We already have Hawkins who is our "project" type player we are trying to groom. We don't need Pipkins on the roster and I'll take Gunter's experience over TT's quest to find the next Sam Shields.

deltarich87 Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 I understand letting RJF go. DL is pretty deep and the addition of Dial made him expendable. Guess this is a sign that Adams is pretty much ready. I'm not a fan of releasing Gunter though. As your 4th/5th CB you could do a lot worse.

Chili Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I'm glad to see the back of Gunter. His lack of speed was a serious issue. Wanted us to continue to try getting faster and more athletic on defence. It's possible someone tried to nab a player off our practice squad and we didn't want to lose the player. skibrett15 might have the right idea about RJF. Playing 54 man roster games like what Kansas are currently doing with Spiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jontat83 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 People at the Ringer (Simmons on his podcast, he mentioned Mays saying something about it) reckoned we should make a trade for someone like Dion Lewis. Would never happen lol NE are shopping him around apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would never happen lol I think the Packers would be more likely to add Dion Jordan than Dion Lewis. I wonder if the other add is an edge/elephant player, since Brooks might miss some time with his concussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanedorf Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Packers are still thin at IOL, some here wanted a vet like John Greco and teams often wait until after week 1 to bring in those vets. GB will be adding Dial, Odom and Adams on the defensive side, not sure why they'd want Ringo too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deltarich87 Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 They have 9 OL on the roster though and Barclay's season may not even be over since he can return from IR. Figured if they added a vet at IOL it would be to replace either McCray or Patrick on the active roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would piss people off but Datone doesn't get much love on here and to be fair the evidence of his play backs that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
