Where \"Draft and Develop\" isn't just a philosophy...it's a way of life.
According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, the Green Bay Packers are bringing in Louisville off-ball linebacker T.J. Quinn for a pre-draft visit. Generally, the Packers’ pre-draft visitors have a high chance of being added to Green Bay’s roster, either in the draft, undrafted free agency or further down the line. Louisville just had […]
The United Football League will kick off on Friday night, as the Louisville Kings will host the Birmingham Stallions in a game you can catch on Fox. Since the spring league season is here, it’s time for us to take our yearly deep dive into rosters and figure out who some former Green Bay Packers […]
National writers seem pretty down on the Packers lately. I don’t share most of their concerns, but perhaps they’re legitimate. Reasonable people can disagree, and maybe they have some insights those of us who cover the team closely don’t. But one thing I don’t get is the fixation on the snaps the Packers have lost. […]
The Packers have started their pre-draft visits, reportedly setting up a date with wide receiver Ted Hurst. Hurst, a 6-foot-4, 206-pound wide receiver out of Georgia State, is already in demand during visit season. In addition to meeting with the Packers, he has reportedly set up visits with the Colts and Falcons. Hurst launched his […]
When you’re the starting quarterback of an NFL team, your time is precious. Everyone wants a piece of that limited resource, particularly in the offseason when there’s more to go around. That’s the case for Jordan Love of the Green Bay Packers, who has plenty of commitments this spring. On Thursday, Love was in Milwaukee […]
On top of Florida defensive tackle Caleb Banks being diagnosed with a broken foot, NFL.com’s Eric Edholm is now reporting that two other defensive tackles in the upcoming draft class are dealing with medical issues. To say the least, the top of the defensive tackle class is a little banged up. Per Edholm, Mississippi nose […]
Assuming that the Green Bay Packers will be playing a 3-4 base this year, which all signs are pointing to as of March 26th, the Packers still need one more starting defensive lineman to pair with Devonte Wyatt, who should be back on the field around minicamp, and the recently signed Javon Hargrave. Because of […]
While gambling institutions are pretty high on the 2026 Green Bay Packers, holding their current win total at 10.5, there is a sense among some pundits that Green Bay may come crashing down to earth while the division champion Chicago Bears remain ascendant. We here at Acme Packing Company are fans of the team, yes, […]
Ah, yes. Big Opinion season. Look, I get it. The content monster doesn’t care that it’s March 26th. It demands sacrifice. So, if you’re a nationally known football opinion haver, you need to keep having opinions. That’s what you get paid for. Me too, for that matter (hence the clickbait headline of today’s Curds). The […]
It’s a relatively slow news period for the Green Bay Packers right now, as it appears that the whole league has opted out of free agency until the draft. So, we might as well talk about the draft. Here’s a quick mock I did with the NFL Mock Draft Database simulator: #52: Dani Dennis-Sutton, EDGE, […]
Free agency in football is a little bit like running the ball. You cannot win without it to some extent, but it’s also fundamentally inefficient. Still, for many fans (and some analysts), a lack of activity in free agency represents something of an offseason failure. People are more comfortable with players they know and free […]
If you’re new to this series, we’re reviewing how the Packers offense performed in 2025 by down & distance. We’re doing that by building out a callsheet. I ran it all down in my initial post. This is the 5th article in the series, where we’re looking at 2nd & short (where “short” is defined […]
Free agency seems like a dull and distant memory, and the NFL Draft is lightyears away. The offseason must be essentially over, right? Wrong! But you know this. You know there’s still a lot of work for the Packers to do, and there’s a good chance they’re gaming out moves right now. Here’s a pretty […]
As we broke down earlier this month, when we covered all of the Green Bay Packers’ injuries going into the 2026 season, the Packers are going to have a tough decision to make when it comes to star edge rusher Micah Parsons, coming off a torn ACL. As the rules state, at the moment, he […]
The Packers, their fans, and members of Bob Harlan’s family gathered in the Lambeau Field atrium Monday to remember Harlan’s life and career. Credited as one of the men responsible for turning the Packers around in the 1990s, Harlan had no shortage of people willing to say good things about him. And that’s for two […]
According to Pro Football Talk, the Green Bay Packers have re-signed “defensive end” Arron Mosby. This was previously reported by Easton Butler on Thursday, but Pro Football Talk confirmed that Mosby officially was signed by the Packers, per the league wire, on Monday. Butler stated that Green Bay signed Mosby to a minimum deal, while […]
The Green Bay Packers have made a habit over the last few years of trying to turn slot cornerbacks into outside ones, having some fans believe that they could always kick one back inside to solve any injury-related issues. However, with the way the roster is currently built, adding another slot defender might be an […]
Nose tackle, cornerback, edge rusher, and offensive line. Those positions appear to be the areas where the Green Bay Packers still need reinforcements the most as the team comes out of free agency and heads towards the 2026 NFL Draft, which will begin in just over a month. Thankfully, all of those spots aside from […]
Pre-draft free agency seems to be pretty close to wrapped up, as the market has nearly halted to a complete stop. The typical chronic borrowers (Eagles, Saints, Browns, Dolphins, etc.) didn’t really borrow from the future this year, and more teams than expected decided to punt on compensatory free agents to protect their incoming 2027 […]
The first addition of the Flag Football Classic, originally scheduled for Saudi Arabia and later moved to Los Angeles, was played on Saturday. For months, we’ve been hearing that NFL players would beat Team USA if the two were ever met face-to-face, a point of contention for both sides, as both groups believe they should […]
At this point, you probably already know that the NFL is attempting to renegotiate its broadcast deals mid-way through its current contracts. Once regulators approved the NFL’s swap of the NFL Network (and other assets) for equity in ESPN, commissioner Roger Goodell and co. went to work on getting their current broadcast partners to accept […]
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, 26 teams have reached out to former Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins’ camp in anticipation of his return to the NFL in 2026. Per agent David Mulugheta, by way of Schefter, Wilkins is still rehabbing a foot injury that he suffered in 2024. Last July, the Raiders voided […]
Early last season, I criticized Matt LaFleur’s game management after the latest in a series of questionable challenge calls went against the Packers. Now, with the 2025 season firmly in the rearview mirror, I’m happy to report that LaFleur must read Acme Packing Company. Not only did he shore up his pitiable track record on […]
The Packers are broadly expected to invest some of their capital in the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft in their secondary, and for good reason. Even with the acquisition of Benjamin St-Juste, the Packers could badly use some depth at cornerback, in addition to some help at the top end of the depth chart. Basically they […]
Few roles in an NFL franchise draw as much criticism as the general manager, and few teams’ fan bases criticize the GM more than the Green Bay Packers. The expectations are high for this franchise and for its front office, and rightfully so, but one recent analysis shows that the Packers are the best-drafting team […]
