Packer Training Camp News #1

July 26, 2018, Thursday

Already the Packer 90 man roster is in flux!  Latest:

Out:
WR, Michael Clark retired
OL, Cole Madison, did not report?

In:
WR, Adonis Jennings - Temple
WR, Kyle Lewis - Cal Poly

Roster now at 89 players

Michael Clark apparently saw the writing on the wall, Packers drafting 3 wide receivers, and Clark decided to look at his future out of football.  Remember, Clark was the 6'6" basketball player that had one year of college football experience.  Looks like that experiment is over.

Cole Madison, the Packers 5th round draft pick, is tending to personal matters.

Two wide receivers were brought in, Jennings & Lewis.

Here is my BIGGEST concern, Brian Bulaga & Nick Perry!  Places on PUP list.

Bulaga, has been a physical wreck the past few years!
Bulaga Games played in career:
2010 - Games played 12
2011 - Games played 12
2012 - Games played 9
2013 - Games played 0
2014 - Games played 15
2015 - Games played 12
2016 - Games played 16
2017 - Games played 5

And, his salary is BIG!!

Nick Perry????  More of a physical wreck than Bulaga!! At probably our WEAKEST position?
2012 - Games played 6
2013 - Games played 11
2014 - Games played 15
2015 - Games played 14
2016 - Games played 14
2017 - Games played 12

Wow!  That is NOT GOOD!

So, as camp opens, keep a close eye on the Packer outside linebacker competition!

Early predictions, Bulaga is gone, will help save $$$ and cap space.  We are STUCK with Perry, two reasons, we are SO weak at outside linebacker and $19 millions guaranteed contract money!  Watch the battle outside with Biegel & Gilbert!  And, I would put Clay Matthews in a sealed room & save for the season!!!
