Where \"Draft and Develop\" isn't just a philosophy...it's a way of life.
The NFL Players’ Association announced that four members of its executive committee have been replaced after the union’s most recent elections. Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus remains a vice president on the executive committee. Joining him this time around on the 10-man committee is new Packers linebacker Zaire Franklin, who previously served as the […]
Here’s a fun one. Green Bay Packers pass-rusher Micah Parsons took to Twitter to react to a graphic ESPN ran the night of the Maxx Crosby trade, which is now off, claiming that Crosby had more quarterback pressures than any other player in the league since 2019. Parsons, correctly, pointed out that he wasn’t even […]
As we wrote earlier this offseason, the Green Bay Packers had an opportunity to move off of kicker Brandon McManus, if they really wanted to. Based on their actions on Friday, they don’t want to. On March 13th, McManus was due a $1 million signing bonus. Usually, the timing of signing bonuses can be a […]
Things are quieting down on the free agency market. While there are plenty of projected top-200 free agents still available to sign, and teams have nearly a collective billion dollars left in available cap space, per Over The Cap’s latest projections, clubs are now turning their attention to another matter: internal restructures. If you’ve been […]
According to ESPN’s Stephen Holder, who covers the Indianapolis Colts, 2023 fourth overall pick quarterback Anthony Richardson, who lost the starting job to Daniel Jones in 2025, is available to trade. Per Holder, “one particular team to monitor” is the Green Bay Packers, who need a new backup quarterback in 2026 after Malik Willis signed […]
As I’m sure you know now, the Green Bay Packers are boxed into their compensatory pick situation (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) as far as free agency goes. As it stands right now, the Packers will likely net a third-round pick for the loss of quarterback Malik Willis, a fourth-round pick for receiver Romeo […]
Hello Panthers fans! Congratulations on your recent acquisition of free agent tackle Rasheed Walker. As exciting as this time is, you’re no doubt wondering what kind of player, exactly, your team has just signed, and I’m here to help as much as I can. Here’s a brief overview of Walker’s career, what he brings to […]
So, new Carolina Panthers left tackle Rasheed Walker didn’t get the number that NFL analysts thought, or that agents who represent tackles thought he would. As recently as yesterday, an agent with a top-100 offensive lineman in the upcoming draft class told me he believed that Walker would get around the Dan Moore Jr. average […]
Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker has finally signed, after being the top free agent left on most people’s boards once the new league year started on Wednesday. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, he signed a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers. The fact that it’s a one-year deal shouldn’t […]
We’re moving right along in this little series. We set up what this series is about and we kicked it off in earnest last week by building out the 1st & 10 section. Today, we’re building out the 2nd & Long section (where “long” is defined as 7+ yards). In 2025, the Packers averaged 9.1 […]
I teased this yesterday, when I wrote about the Green Bay Packers’ injuries and their players’ recovery timelines, so it’s time to deliver: Here’s your 2026 53-man roster projection after the first couple of days of free agency. We’re months away from the Packers having to play a football game, but here’s where their team […]
The San Francisco 49ers have signed former Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs to a one-year contract, according to reporter Jordan Schultz. Hobbs was just officially released by the Packers on Wednesday, so this deal was struck fairly quickly. When Hobbs, who primarily played slot defender for the Las Vegas Raiders, signed, there was hope […]
I doubt the Green Bay Packers will spend much on compensatory free agents this year, because of the picks they’re due to receive if their top players walk. On paper, the Packers are incentivized by the league’s structure to limit their compensatory free agent action to up to two $5 million-ish or cheaper players (priced […]
The Dallas Cowboys are borrowing a lot from the future to keep the recently traded Rashan Gary on their team in 2026. According to ESPN’s Todd Archer, the Cowboys got Gary to rework his deal into a two-year, $32 million contract ($16 million per year), slightly below the $18 million that he was set to […]
According to The Athletic’s Dane Brugler, Florida defensive tackle Caleb Banks broke his foot the night before his testing day at the combine last month. Brugler’s source claims that Banks should be able to return to the field from the injury by June. At the moment, Banks is the second-ranked defensive tackle (23rd) in the […]
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Seattle Seahawks will be signing running back Emanuel Wilson to a one-year deal “worth up to $2.1 million” for the 2026 season. The Super Bowl champions are in the market for a number two back after Kenneth Walker, who won the Super Bowl MVP, signed with the […]
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Tom Silverstein has reported that former Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson will not be coming back to the team in 2026. The Packers elected to turn down his $3.5 million restricted free agent tender, and while Silverstein claims that Wilson hasn’t agreed to a deal with another club, “he […]
Three players were hit with franchise tags, and one was hit with the transition tag, so it’s time to update our consensus free agency rankings. We’re going to change our methodology for this one because of the inclusion of cap casualties, who aren’t always included in the rankings we’ve found around the web. Due to […]
On the radio with ESPN Milwaukee, ESPN’s Adam Schefter gave us all an update on Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker and his status in free agency. Right now, Walker is by far the best player left in free agency, according to consensus rankings, who has yet to sign with a team by the […]
On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers landed a player who was one of Jonathan Gannon’s best success stories with the Philadelphia Eagles. Green Bay signed free agent defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, who had just been released by the Minnesota Vikings, to a two-year deal, reuniting him with his former defensive coordinator. Gannon coached Hargrave in […]
As our own Justis Mosqueda wrote yesterday, the Green Bay Packers have until Friday (that’s tomorrow as I sit down with my morning coffee to write this) to make a decision on kicker Brandon McManus. Without parroting the entire article here, I’ll just clarify that that is because McManus is due a $1 million bonus […]
I was originally going to get up a 53-man roster projection for Thursday morning (stay tuned for that tomorrow), but while doing the exercise, I realized that I was doing a lot of work trying to figure out when guys were expected to return from injury after the chaos that happened at the end of […]
The Green Bay Packers brought back an old friend, Jonathan Ford, to the team in 2025, after a slew of injuries to their defensive line. Ford, a 2022 seventh-round pick, was plucked from the Chicago Bears’ practice squad after spending the 2022 to 2024 seasons with the Packers. He never played a regular-season snap with […]
Not only are the general manager, head coach and quarterback for the Miami Dolphins coming from Green Bay, but the team has also now signed two former Packers on Wednesday. The first was safety/special teams ace Zayne Anderson. Now, it’s being reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero that tight end Ben Sims is going to […]
The Green Bay Packers have made some special teams-centric moves this offseason, beyond just retaining their own players. This included the signing of receiver/returner Skyy Moore and cornerback/all-round contributor Benjamin St-Juste. The St-Juste move seemed odd, though, if the team was going to retain safety Zayne Anderson, who was a restricted free agent with a […]
