Packers: James White would be the perfect complement to AJ Dillon
The Green Bay Packers must find a relief pitcher for AJ Dillon if they decide to let Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams walk this offseason. The NFL proves year in and year out that having a high-paid, bell cow, every-down RB is not essential to success in the league. Sure, it helps, but with a […] Packers: James White would be the perfect complement to AJ Dillon - Lombardi Ave - Lombardi Ave - Green Bay Packers News and Fan Community

Friday Cheese Curds: Is A.J. Dillon ready to be the Packers’ starting running back?
Photo by Dylan Buell/ We know one thing for sure: his calves will be up to the challenge should Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones leave in free agency. With free agency weeks away, there remains hope the Green Bay Packers can retain either Aaron Jones or Jamaal Williams as the team’s top running back (both would be a miracle). Hope can be a wonderful thing but sometimes it has to give in to reality and the reality is it’s highly likely one is gone and it’s also very possible Green Bay loses both. Should the latter happen, what does that mean for the Packers? Simply...

If Dolphins add Aaron Jones what is next? Miami mock draft with running back need filled
Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports A Miami Herald report yesterday indicated the Miami Dolphins and Aaron Jones may have mutual interest in the soon-to-be free agent running back leaving the Green Bay Packers for South Florida. The Dolphins need to find a lead rusher, adding him to a backfield group that includes Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed, to continue to build the offense and give second-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa another weapon. Jones would immediately fill that void and give Miami a 26-year-old runner coming off a Pro Bowl season. Is it the right move? And what...

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Packers facing tough decisions on Tonyan, Jones, Linsley
Appleton Post-Crescent-USA TODAY There are no great answers for the Packers with their unrestricted free agents, but the path seems clear on their top RFA. Some of the Green Bay Packers’ upcoming decisions involve several millions of dollars in compensation and cap space. Some may end up coming down to parsing a million dollars or less. But each decision is difficult in its own way, as Packers fans can likely understand. In the cases of Aaron Jones and Corey Linsley, the financial questions are enormous. A top-tier deal at his position for either player will likely...

Tuesday Cheese Curds: Jamaal Williams hopes to return; Rodgers’ ‘Jeopardy!’ dates revealed
Quinn Harris-USA TODAY Sports Tune your TVs in starting April 5th. It’s just way too much fun watching Jamaal Williams. The Green Bay Packers’ running back and resident dance specialist always brings a tremendous energy to the field and to the building each and every day. Although he has seen his role and productivity surpassed by his draft-mate and close friend, Aaron Jones, the four-year veteran always maintains a positive attitude and is quick to point out how close the two are on and off the field. Now they both get to experience free agency together, though...
