The Green Bay Packers Shareholder’s meeting is upon us, which means that the players are moving in to the dorms at St. Norbert College and camp is soon going to start. We as a people have survived the doldrums of football’s offseason. I’ve decided to take a swing at what I think the 53 man…
Packers Training Camp Competition: Cornerback
When one considers the embarrassing defensive manner in which the Packers exited the playoffs in 3 of the past 4 seasons, one might assume that the Packers would not have depth (or talent for that matter) in the defensive backfield.

On game days, most teams (Packers included), dress 7 offensive linemen. The general idea behind this is that there is a backup tackle and a backup…
5 Guys That Have to be Good: #1 – Terrell Manning
