I think he played a lot of ST snaps, too. I get the feeling the staff is trying to make him stick on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighCalebR Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Hanson is a near lock for PS. Hes been passed by anyone that looks like they can snap a ball. Hes playing **** squad center. Patrick is the surprise cut to me if there is one. Youve got 3 other guys with more upside and about even in the roster right now at both his positions. Nijman I assume will get the super extended look to see what kind of consistency he can show through the preseason. If he can tighten it up the rest of the way I see a path to the roster over Kelly. Otherwise you send him back down (is he eligible? I havent followed these new rules) Edited August 20, 2021 by HighCalebR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's excellent depth at worst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if one of the young guys steals his starting spot things start to get flexible. I don't think hell get moved but hes the only guy they could that would surprise me at this point.

Brat&Beer Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Too many young, unproven guys on the OL for the Packers to let Patrick go. Injuries happen. Even if Newman beats him out, he'll be needed before the season is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Patrick's gonna up his game from PS game 1 - but if one of the young guy's does pass him by - I think he's more valuable to us as a filler later on than as a trade chip. He can hold down a couple spots. A handy guy to have around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braden is in the same spot as when patrick broke tbe roster and JRJ is in the same spot as when he broke the lineup. I don't think its imconceivsble, however unlikely.

ThatJerkDave Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I think you are overthinking it. There are Lucas Patricks starting all around the league. I would be surprised very much if he were cut. I would be just as surprised if he were on the team next season. Keep the veteran next to the rookie center, especially while Bakhtiari is out.

I don't think so. Id put my expectancy to move him at like 5%. Thered have to be a ton of things working together for this to happen. Like you said, ton of Patricks out there. Hes not exactly a tough replace. I don't think hes a fantastic scheme fit so i think youre always looking to upgrade if you can. Do i think the young guys are going to do it? No. I would also be very SURPRISED to see him not on this roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a normal year there would be about a 50/50 chance of Patrick being traded with with the equaling type of depth they have on the IOL, but with Rodgers now voicing his opinion and Patrick a Rodgers guy it is doubtful he goes anywhere but the 53 man roster for the Packers.

Shoot this would rely on the packers wanting to keep 4 tackles out the gate and all the rookies not stumbling any more while patrick continues to have the mistakes like missing stunts and free runners. Far more likely Patrick cleans some of that up. This is also all just to my knowledge which is just like the 2 tweets ive ever seen our beat comment on line stuff and the preseason games. Patrick probably has been practicing great and this is all mute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Guy Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I'd trade Patrick for an average run stuffing defensive lineman in a player for player. We are below average with Lancaster's spot. Not sure how confident they are with Slaton at this point either. That is assuming you are good with Runyan, Newman and Braden inside. Seems a big ask to be OK with them at this point. It gets more palpable when Bak comes back and Jenkins moves back inside. If Kelly was playing worth a damn you could be more comfortable because Turner can play inside, albeit not his ideal position.

Leader Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Ryan Wood - Packers DC Joe Barry says he got into his entire defense during pair of joint practices vs. Jets. He says those sessions were more beneficial than having starters playing limited snaps in preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
