Acme Packing Company Today we take a look at another Green Bay Packer who will be fighting to keep his job this offseason: quarterback Graham Harrell. Harrell joined the Packers in 2010 and spent most of the season on the practice squad as the third-string quarterback, doing the same in 2011. Last season he was active for every game, and was the primary backup quarterback behind Aaron Rodgers. Unfortunately for Harrell, the one opportunity he had to play meaningful time in a regular-season game was marred by a fumble. After Rodgers was poked in the eye by a New Orleans Saints defender in week four, Harrell...

Acme Packing Company As incredible as it sounds, a player fresh off setting the Packers' all-time record for single season all-purpose yards is about to take on a bigger role this year. In just his second season, Randall Cobb became the Packers' breakout star on offense. With Greg Jennings and Jordy Nelson missing time, Cobb became Aaron Rodgers' go-to option. Not only did he lead the team in receptions and receiving yards, but Cobb also assumed the vaunted slot role while still operating as the team's primary returner. Don't expect a repeat performance in 2013, however. With Jennings and Donald Driver dep...

Jacksonville Jaguars May 14, 2013Packers Blog | Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Pete Prisco of CBS Sports ranks Aaron Rodgers as the No. 1 player in the NFL. Not much to argue about there.And, on a list of Prisco's top 100 players, linebacker Clay Matthews checks in at No. 18 overall. That seems reasonable.Packers fans, however, may have some disagreement about the rest of the list.Guard Josh Sitton is absent. As are receivers James Jones, Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb. Perhaps the receivers are so talented as a group that they cancel each other out individually.

One Jet at a Time He fell in the draft like Aaron Rodgers, but is Geno Smith the next elite QB? You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. We're doing our discount double check to find out. Blast from the past To get those memory juices flowing, Aaron Rodgers was drafted with the 24th overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft to Green Bay, after expecting to be drafted high, possibly to the San Francisco, who held the first overall pick. Instead, they went Alex Smith. What a poor move, in hindsight. The teams following the 49ers, like many in the 2013 draft, had higher priority needs outside of ...

Pride Of Detroit Following the 2013 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions signed Western Michigan quarterback Alex Carder as an undrafted free agent. The move was done to add an arm for the Lions' rookie minicamp, as well as to give Kellen Moore some competition for the third quarterback spot in training camp. Interestingly enough, the fourth quarterback spot on the Lions' roster almost went to Vanderbilt quarterback Jordan Rodgers, who is the brother of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Lions were one of two teams that Rodgers was considering after going undrafted. In the end, he opted to sign w...
