What are the Panthers getting in Rasheed Walker?
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 […]
No one had a worse time on the market than Rasheed Walker this free agency
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 […]
Packers Free Agency: Rasheed Walker has finally signed
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 […]
Packers 2025 Callsheet: 2nd & Long
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 […]
A Green Bay Packers 2026 53-man roster projection
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 […]
San Francisco 49ers sign Packers cap casualty
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 […]
NFL Free Agency: Cap Casualty Tracker
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 Cowboys’ Rashan Gary extension is insane
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 […]
NFL Draft: Projected 1st-round defensive tackle broke his foot
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 […]
Packers running back signs with Seattle Seahawks
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 […]
Packers RB Emanuel Wilson to sign elsewhere in free agency
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 […]
NFL Free Agency: Top-200 consensus rankings, signings updates
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 […]
Schefter: Packers’ Rasheed Walker could take a 1-year deal
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 […]
Packers interested in trading for pass-rusher Josh Sweat, per report
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 […]
Green Bay Packers News: Is it time to move on from Brandon McManus?
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 […]
Packers injury recovery timelines: Micah Parsons, Tucker Kraft and more
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 […]
Packers Free Agency: Contract Details for Jonathan Ford
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 […]
Another former Packer is headed to the Dolphins
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 […]
Dolphins sign Zayne Anderson away from Packers
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 […]
Packers sign free agent DT Javon Hargrave for 2 years, $23 million
The most obvious free agent signing of the spring has come to pass within an hour of it becoming a possibility. The Green Bay Packers desperately need a nose tackle and they have found one in Javon Hargrave. The Packers reportedly have inked Hargrave to a big new two-year contract, giving him $23 million over […]
The Rashan Gary trade has been officially processed
You don’t have to worry about the Dallas Cowboys reneging on the trade for former Green Bay Packers pass-rusher Rashan Gary, even though NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported last night, after the Maxx Crosby trade fell through, that the Cowboys were still interested in Crosby. The Cowboys have made their official announcement that Gary will […]
Packers 2026 Free Agency Tracker: Signings, news, rumors, & more
Monday afternoon brings the start of the NFL’s free agent negotiation period, often referred to as the “legal tampering” period. Starting at 12 Noon Eastern, teams may begin talking to agents of unrestricted free agents to work out the framework of contracts that can be officially signed after 4 PM Eastern on Wednesday, when the […]
Packers will re-sign DT Jonathan Ford, per report
Nose tackle is one of the biggest areas of concern on the Green Bay Packers’ roster heading into the 2026 season, but on Wednesday — shortly before the start of the NFL’s league year — the team brought a player back at that spot to give them competition and options in training camp. According to […]
Vikings to release Javon Hargrave on Wednesday
This is the one you’ve all been waiting for. The Minnesota Vikings are set to release Javon Hargrave on the first day of the new league year, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Green Bay Packers, desperate for defensive line help, can sign Hargrave, a former Jonathan Gannon defensive lineman, without offsetting a compensatory draft […]
Packers to bring back Josh Whyle
The Green Bay Packers are bringing back another one of their restricted free agents, Josh Whyle, according to Sports Illustrated’s Bill Huber. Whyle will return on a one-year deal. Whyle was the victim of a trend that happened across the league last year, as teams’ backup tight ends pivoted more toward the run-blocking mold, in […]
