Back in early June, I gave a best guess at the final 53 man roster for the Green Bay Packers. With half of the preseason in the books, it’s an interesting time to take another stab at it. Surely, there will be all sorts of surprises. Outside of the NFL draft, there may be no…
If the Packers are anything, they’re creatures of habit. From their weekly game prep routines to their tendency to get a single injury en masse during the course of a season, the Packers are never real surprising. And that goes as well for some Packer fans as well. They are more often than not the…
