He rarely had played guard before the Packers stuck him at LG. He was really good there, but would he be even better at center? If so cutting Linsley would provide the big cap savings and may not be much of a loss at all. Probably would allow us to resign Bulaga. When the Packers drafted Jenkins I thought it was to protect themselves from life without Linsley. And do what at Guard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lane Taylor on a restructured deal? Or you can just draft a guy that fits the mold in the 4th round and hope he can fit in. We've had a great draft record in the past with middle round guards.

You could .. just depends on where the Packers think Jenkins has the most value. I just think they have plenty of options if they want to cut Linsley loose.

squire12 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Only way I cut linsley is if I know that money is bringing in upgrades at DL, TE, and retaining bulaga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40Year Pack Fan Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Unless Rodgers can return to being a running quarterback, nothing short of almost completely rebuilding the OL will make sense.....Russell Wilson's mobility worked well against San Francisco, while Rodgers' immobility and often times indecisiveness worked rather poorly....Bakh can stay, but Bulaga is getting a little long in the tooth....He did have concussion and leg problems this season....But since we won't have the luxury of building a new line before AR's retirement party, it may behoove us to get one or two Edelmann, Nelson, or Cobb type receivers who can do the quick slant stuff....

Rodgers needs to be willing to throw the slant stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
