I think the official designation is different. I think TJ Watt is technically a LB for example.
Yes. Some pass rushers are listed in that figure. The example I saw had Montez Sweat in the LBer figure.

For the record.



All this breathless "reporting" is hilarious to me when they ultimately end up saying absolutely nothing.

Last year they signed Lamb on the Monday just under two weeks before the opener, which would've been two days ago, and ignoring the fact that this year's opener is on a Thursday and not Sunday.

With that said, this is a weird situation and I think anything is possible from a trade to him being extended tomorrow. The only thing I don't want to see happen is a collective dragging of heels towards nothing with the team threatening the franchise tag all year.

Agreed, but I do think it's interesting that 2 different reporters are saying movement is happening behind the scenes, but neither of them are sure what exactly it is.

Couple that with the GB rumors which seem to be coming from the agent (Scott Boras used the same playbook in MLB) and it does seem like some movement is happening, one way or the other.

Let's hope, the only thing I don't want is status quo/nothing to happen.

Sign him, trade him, I don't really care.

One random thing I've been wondering about is that if things truly are as nuclear behind the scenes as people would like you to believe, in what world are we going to be able to retain Pickens on a relatively large deal in about 6 months time with the same agent?

Hard to imagine, which is another reason I think most of this is horse shit and ultimately these idiots will end up paying a top of the market deal at the last minute like they always do.

I have to wonder if things are truly that bad if mama Parsons was so friendly with Jerry the other night.

Yeah I kind of feel the same way. Parson's isn't a very good actor and I think he is coming off a bit cartoonish right now. Like it's all just fun and games to him. The way he was acting during the last preseason game was childish at best.

Very off-putting to see him laying down on a training table.

Jus for fun this is what I'd want from the Packers:

Rashan Gary, two 1's and a 2, or
Devonte Wyatt or Edgerrin Cooper, two 1's and two 2's (maybe add Van Ness and subtract a 2)

I'm ready to do this. Get some guys who want to play. A few megapaid superstars aren't working for us anyway.

Me too. I don't have any confidence, even if he does get paid, that he will have as much loyalty to the team after this.
