Mazrimiv Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 The article is basically a fan's take on the Packers current DL situation. No more or less valid than someone like AG20 or BobGray posting their thoughts. Being "worried" that Slaton is taking starting reps is probably the only weird thing about it.

If our edge is as advertised and kenny is kenny our line is gooooood. Wooden I think is very on the fringe. Jarius Wynn. I wasn't discounting Slaton. I was alluding to the article and the prototypical DT in this system. Brooks seems ideal. Wooden fits the measurements, but can he actually play? My biggest concern along the front 4 is Preston's bonus money tied to sacks. I want those guys rotating often and Preston needs to get plenty of rest at his age and amount of wear in tear. Actually, I want LVN to beat him out cleanly. Nothing against Preston but he's deep into the back nine of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVN winning outright would be nice but I'm not benching Preston cuz he's old. Let the rotation be 50 50 ish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's a dumb take that Slaton would worry you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spilltray Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 42 minutes ago, Arthur Penske said: So it would be like if @justo posted his take?? It is Justo though? Also when they say "starting" are they referring to "base" 4-3 or nickel? Because it seems to me that they are using Slaton more in the 4-3 and Wyatt is mostly working nickle and dime packages. Either way you want a healthy rotation at DT where you essentially have at least a 3 "starter" rotation splitting snaps. This is a good "problem" to have. Wyatt looks like he's going to have a significant impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanfb Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Morgan out about a week "or so" according to MLF. Going to lose some valuable snaps against the Browns this weekend, but hopefully he doesn't miss the Broncos game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, no two injuries are exactly alike but there is a pretty real constant of football players working through the minor things and getting back well enough to play. Hopefully this is just a little pt and back to the grind because not only do we want him to be good in the future, we may need him this year.

ChaRisMa Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Can confirm, Slaton looks motivated. Family night he looked like he had twitch to him now. Chase that paper boo boo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brat&Beer Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 As far as the kicking, MLF said the wind yesterday was worse than anything they will likely face inside a stadium. I will say, the practice facility helps block wind from the west, but otherwise it's pretty open out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, this was one of the oddest articles I've read in while re: the Packers. Our DL has been hunting and they've been mixing in a ton of guys, Wyatt, Brooks, LVN on the inside. Who gives a **** if Slaton is starting in base? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
