Latest news and updates about the Packers
Last week, we dug into Dani Dennis-Sutton, the Green Bay Packers 4th round pick in the 2026 draft. Today we’re going a little further down the list and taking a look at one of the undrafted free agents the Packers brought in. The Packers stayed out of the run of tight ends taken in the […]
Analytics nerds have long had access to a statistic known as WPA or “Win Percentage Added.” This statistic uses a model based on historical data which tells you approximately how likely you are to win a game based on the current game state. If you’re up by 3 points with 1:48 remaining in the game […]
13 days ago, the Green Bay Packers moved up seven spots in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft to take defensive tackle Chris McClellan out of Missouri. While some Packers fans (and the vast majority of the APC staff) were hoping for the team to land Iowa State’s Domonique Orange, Brian Gutekunst and […]
Look, I don’t want to make the entire offseason about Mike Tanier, and I also don’t want to just spend all my time criticizing the Chicago Bears, who I really and truly believe are now extremely competently run, well-coached, and true contenders. HOWEVER. There were a bunch of factual errors in Mike’s last big thing […]
I already got one wrong prediction on my 53-man roster projection from after the draft, as the Green Bay Packers have already swapped out backup quarterback Desmond Ridder for Tyrod Taylor. That got me thinking: How many roster spots are truly 100 percent safe on this team right now? Here’s my best stab at it, […]
It really is a shame that Tucker Kraft’s 2025 season was cut short. This is not just because the Green Bay Packers might have made a deeper playoff run with him on the field (which is likely) or because he will miss the entire 2026 offseason program while rehabbing his torn ACL. Beyond those concerns […]
Live reactions to Chicago's slide from No. 2 to No. 4.
Getting to hear Jonathan Gannon speak this week was an interesting, if funny and not-all-that-surprising, diversion. But while the defensive coordinator sets the table, his assistant coaches are responsible for preparing most of the meal. Whatever Gannon’s vision for the defense might be (and despite his claims, he does have a scheme), it’ll be on […]
We’re in the dead zone for football content as we head into late spring, and that means takes must be had, questions must be asked, and with that, comes response content. Welcome to the response content. This first started for me listening to the Football 301 podcast, a podcast I thoroughly enjoy, where the trio […]
Like all good sequels, the Aaron Rodgers-Pittsburgh Steelers melodrama has had a few decent twists and turns that would make Randy from Scream proud. A rarely used contract tender after weeks of promised deadlines coming and going without any sort of direction or answers? How exciting. Now, a new door has opened in this weird […]
We finally got to hear from Jonathan Gannon! The Packers hired their new defensive coordinator in late January after the departure of Jeff Hafley, but, for some reason, it took more than four months for the Packers to let him talk to the media. Why? Who knows, and in the grand scheme of things it […]
The last time the Ravens held the 14th overall pick in the draft, the first round did not go to plan. In 2022, the team had interest in wideouts Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave, as well as defensive tackle Jordan Davis, but all three were snapped up before Baltimore was on the clock. The Jets […]
The Green Bay Packers are choosing to move forward with Kyle McCord over Desmond Ridder, as far as their reserve-futures quarterbacks go. According to Tom Pelissero, Ridder has been released by the Packers, who just signed Tyrod Taylor on Monday. With the addition of Taylor, the Packers were up to five quarterbacks, a huge number. […]
The Green Bay Packers had an extra roster spot open following rookie minicamp, as the team didn’t sign a single tryout player after tight end Eni Falayi dropped off the roster. With that open roster spot, the Packers chose to sign a backup quarterback on Monday in Tyrod Taylor, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Taylor […]
The Winnipegger goes from a nominee to finalist.
The Los Angeles Rams’ three-year playoff streak has shown that the team, while getting closer every season, has struggled to break its ceiling. Are the Rams actually getting closer to a third Super Bowl title, or are they destined to stay stuck in one place as the Packers had towards the end of the Aaron […]
That’s two practices down, and a whole lot more to go. The Green Bay Packers closed down rookie minicamp on Saturday after a pair of practices that allowed the coaching staff to get to know the team’s rookie class. As always, it’s more orientation for the players than any substantial scheme installation, but that doesn’t […]
THE DAILY SPONGIE SPECIAL BEARSSSSSS Former Bears WR Chase Claypool tries to reboot career at Packers’ rookie minicamp Two names I would be happy to never hear again, Claypool and Packers. Bears take training wheels off QB Caleb Williams heading into Year 3 Good. It’s hard to run with wheels attached to your shoes. What […]
Northwestern Wildcats football fans knew Caleb Tiernan was going to be drafted, but we didn’t know Evan Beernsten would! Both guys will continue wearing purple as each of them went to one of the two NFL teams that features this distinctive color. Tiernan went in the third round, with the No. 97 pick, to the […] The post Caleb Tiernan, Evan Beernsten Move Northwestern Closer to 200 All-Time NFL Draft Picks appeared first on The Sports Bank .
The Green Bay Packers are officially underway with rookie minicamp for 2026, with practices taking place Friday and Saturday this weekend. The team’s draft picks and rookie free agent signings are all in town and have already put their first practice in the books, with the session starting earlier today. As usual, the minicamp roster […]
Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool is making an NFL comeback. The former second round pick has been invited to Green Bay Packers rookie minicamp for a tryout, per Matt Schneidman. Claypool was drafted by the Steelers in 2020 and had an electrifying rookie season, catching 62 passes for 873 yards and nine touchdowns. […]
Every year, the lead-up to the draft feels like it takes forever. Then, draft weekend arrives, and the three-day process flies by in the blink of an eye. The 2026 NFL Draft was no different, and for all four teams in the NFC North, the emphasis on improving and separating themselves from the other teams […]
Today is another important milestone for the Green Bay Packers in the start of their preparations for the 2026 season. Rookie minicamp opens today, giving the Packers’ six draft picks, their reported undrafted free agent players, and a host of tryout invitees their first chance to impress the team’s coaching staff and front office. Because […]
After Green Bay Packers fans waited patiently on Thursday of the 2026 NFL Draft, they were gifted with a cornerback with the 52nd overall pick, as general manager Brian Gutekunst selected Brandon Cisse out of South Carolina. The move is one Packers fans had been clamoring for, hoping for an opportunity to bolster the secondary […]
According to The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman, the Green Bay Packers will be picking up edge rusher Lukas Van Ness’ fifth-year option, which means he will make $13.8 million in guaranteed money in 2027. This was an expected move, as the edge rusher market has moved in recent years, putting Van Ness’ 2027 figure in the […]
