The Pack really need to cut or trade Barnett
Nah, I don't think the cowpies will make the playoffs.
Heard the same for several teams that they are secretly being told to head back to be ready when camp opens, but its being denied by everyone as apparently teams can get in trouble for this due to the current situation. Probably coaching staffs are heading this up as they need every minute they are going to have to get teams ready to play.
Profootballtalk.
He isn't going to give up his job easily(unless injured), but there the #2 or #3 WR can both be good stats players.
Well...Wilde of ESPN Milwaukee is standing pat that he has spoken to players and officials and they told him it went down.They might just be denying it now to keep out of trouble.Heard another "conspiracy theory" that they leaked the information of the meeting knowing a few places would pick it up and report it as a way of letting the players know to head to GB without actually calling them. Would be great if that were true.Profootballtalk.
Wilde is usually pretty reliable and has good sources within the Packers organization. My guess is that the league gave permission to teams to contact players but doesn't want this public until an official announcement about an agreement is put out, probably Thursday afternoon after the owners meet.Well...Wilde of ESPN Milwaukee is standing pat that he has spoken to players and officials and they told him it went down.They might just be denying it now to keep out of trouble.Heard another "conspiracy theory" that they leaked the information of the meeting knowing a few places would pick it up and report it as a way of letting the players know to head to GB without actually calling them.

Wilde is a joke of reporter/writer like most of the big names that cover the Packers in this state. I read their articles and have to laugh how they try to sway the public one way without giving all details or facts. Example is how the writers were slamming the Packers last year at this time for not reupping Nick Collin's contract. Every writer put a paragraph or nothing at all in regard to Packers still having control of Collins and that the CBA issues were a reason the Packers were waiting. But once a gain the writers decided to bash the front office for not spending money. These same writers have bashed Ted for years on his lack of free agency, but rarely mention that top players are kept in house and never reach free agency.Reader beware when it comes to Jason Wilde, Bob McGinn and other Wisconsin writres and how they handle the Packers. It still feels like they have an axe to grind with the front office and how they handled Brett Favre.Wilde is usually pretty reliable and has good sources within the Packers organization.

pretty much agree with shonuff on this issue. I think we have pretty good football coverage in this state
Like Wilde or not, he does seem to have a pretty reliable source within the organization.Wilde is a joke of reporter/writer like most of the big names that cover the Packers in this state.

let's get it
Was he cut or traded?
And let's face it, this is a passing team, not a rushing team. I'd take a good pass blocker over a road grater any day of the weak. Especially with Rodgers back there. Romo got killed last season behind a behemoth line.
Will be cut if no trade partner found. I assume that means cut since it's public.
Good for Green Bay and Nick. Looks like Ted didn't waste any time and Barnett probably appreciates them not jerking him around at all. They let him go right away and now he's going to get a good contract from some team. Good experience from both player and team in this relationship, and an amiable break up makes the organization look even more solid.Nice work Ted. All the best Nick...unless you land in the Division.Looks as if Nick Barnett is getting cut or traded according to his Twitter profile:Just met with Ted, Thanks for the great 8 years. Very blessed 2 be apart of such a great tradition and great fans..Happy I was able to be here for the great xlv run... I will always keep a Special place in my heart for this team and city..I look forward to the next jungle #Mufasa will roam...

Ted handled that one just right.
http://blogs.nfl.com/category/jason-la-canfora/?campaign=Twitter_blogsWould really muddy the waters in GB's backfield a bit more.Would they let Kuhn go (Hall is probably gone) and just keep Quinn Johnson at FB to keep 4 RBs?
If they could keep B Jackson for relatively cheap, I'd say do it. No other RB on the roster can do what he does. I'm guessing Rodgers would like to see him stick around.
Maybe they want something for him.
They would have to pull a sign and trade.I think they do want to keep him...just not sure they can keep him as cheaply as they would like (and he wants a bigger role from what I have seen.
Yesterday on twitter Jason Wilde said he had a reputable source give him a list of the cuts. He was not going to release them because not all of the players had heard yet. I found that interesting as I would figure many of the guys would already know.My thoughts went to Driver and has this conversation elsewhere.
I'd love to see Cullen back.
