1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: Hi, everybody. Welcome to Packers Unscripted, or should I say

2
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: welcome back to Packers Unscripted. We are back Mike Spofford

3
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: Wes Hodkowitz from Packers dot Com coming to you here

4
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: from our studios at lambeau Field West. The last time

5
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: we addressed the audience in this setting was actually before

6
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: we went to the NFL Scouting Combine. We did some

7
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: shows from Indianapolis as well. But in a nutshell, free

8
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: agents have arrived, players have departed, others have retired. There

9
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 1: has been a whole bunch of Packers related news here

10
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: since the last time we sat at this desk. Where

11
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: do you want to start? Well, I mean you could

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: start in a million different places, right, I mean the

13
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: fact that it's so funny no matter what the offense,

14
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: the off season and moved so fast, so many things happen,

15
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: and I think for my money, it's those first forty

16
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: eight hours of the negotiating period. The fact that the

17
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: Packers did come to agreements with four different free agents

18
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: sign them right at the start of free agency. The

19
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: outside linebacker situation is going to look a hundred different

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: for the Green Bay Packers this year. Overall, it's just

21
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: been a lot of change, But I think at the

22
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: same time, with Mike Petton coming back, you bring an

23
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: agent and Amos now is sort of the commander there.

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: On the defense, you have, you know, the two Smiths

25
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: coming in to help anchor the pass rush, a lot

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: of optimism about the defense and potentially how they can

27
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: move forward now and offensively. The big thing is Aaron Rodgers,

28
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur and building that foundation now for the offense.

29
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: And I think because we start to get into this

30
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: offseason program they've already started up. We have guys coming

31
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,559
Speaker 1: in for the strength and conditioning program. Seeing where these

32
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: teams go, where this team goes, where these players go

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: with thee the puzzle pieces in place is going to

34
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: be one of the more intriguing things now as we

35
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: get going into O t A s and mini camps

36
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: and things of that nature. Yeah, well, what to call it?

37
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: A flurry of activity in the first couple of days

38
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: of free agent. He might be the understatement of the

39
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: off season here in Green Bay. Four players are signed.

40
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: You mentioned the two outside linebackers, the pass rushers, and

41
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: Darius Smith from Baltimore and Preston Smith from Washington. Then

42
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 1: you had Adrian Amos from division rival Chicago at safety,

43
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: and then offensive lineman Billy Turner, a guy who I

44
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: at least I look at all four of these guys

45
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: as starters for the Packers in twenty nineteen. The Packers

46
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: aren't necessarily saying exactly where Billy Turner is gonna play,

47
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: but all signs would indicate he's gonna be your guy

48
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: at right guard when you have that spot essentially wide

49
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: open here and you sign a guy that early in

50
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: free agency. And as you said, now the players are

51
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: getting rolling with offseason workouts, they're in the building, they're

52
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: getting to know Matt Lafleur and the new coaches that

53
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: are here. Nathaniel Hackety, you mentioned Mike Patton obviously has

54
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: returned for year two as defensive coordinator. There's a lot

55
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: of energy in this building. There's a lot going on

56
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: for April, there's a lot. There's a lot going on

57
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: around here. And as you said, some certainly some some

58
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: optimism here, especially on the defensive side of the ball,

59
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 1: with the combination of pett and coming back and then

60
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: some young up and coming players that the Packers have

61
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: signed as free agents with the idea that their best

62
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: years are ahead of them, right, And I mean you

63
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: wrote about it about a month ago already, the fact

64
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: that the Packers signed a bunch of guys all in

65
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: that twenty six year old Range Goodkins had such a

66
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: great comment going back to the owners meetings about how,

67
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, he's not really looking for one or two

68
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: year rental players. He wants guys that are coming into

69
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: their formative years in the NFL. And I think when

70
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: you look, you know, Zadarius Smith, Preston Smith, both of

71
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: those guys have been remarkably durable throughout their career and

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: have kind of been on the incline. Specifically in Zadarius

73
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: case eight and a half sacks last year for the

74
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: best defense in the league, lead them in sacks, and

75
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: I think he's one of those guys that always had

76
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: that type of potential. You know, Brian Goodicuins mentioned they've

77
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: been looking at him back in the two thousand fifteen

78
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: draft Milt Hendrickson and the Ray Evans ended up getting

79
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: them in Baltimore, and he's been on this steady rise.

80
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: So the biggest thing, I think when you look back

81
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: to two thousand and eighteen, the Packers were missing something

82
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: with their pass rush. Now it got home quite a bit.

83
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: You know, they ended up putting up a lot of sacks,

84
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: but it was about the consistency side of it and

85
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: also trying to weather through some of those injuries. Clay

86
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: Matthews moves on to l A, the Packers move on

87
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: from Nick Perry, and now you have Kyler Facker on.

88
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: These two young pass rushers that I think really are

89
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: going to bring a new energy to that side of

90
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 1: the game. And then Amos, I think is a spot

91
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: on I think could really under the radar, be the

92
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: best signing for them this offseason because he brings stability

93
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: to you know, arguably the most unstable position for them

94
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: last year with all the difference safeties they had to

95
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: go through. So I think it's a really good first step. Again,

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: it's all on paper. You have to do it in

97
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: on the field, but the potential certainly there. Yeah, I'm

98
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: really interested to see Amos, certainly, as you mentioned in

99
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: the back end here with the Packers, because you look

100
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: at his track records so far with the Bears coming

101
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: out of Penn Stay it as a draft choice a

102
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: handful of years ago. Not a lot of the big,

103
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: flashy splash plays and whatnot. Um. The Packers signed him

104
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 1: not only because he's a reliable guy and they feel

105
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: like they know exactly what they're getting, but because but

106
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: also because they feel like the interceptions and the splash

107
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: plays maybe are gonna start to come for him as

108
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: he continues to get more and more comfortable in his

109
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: pro career. All of these free agent signings really were

110
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: projection signings for the Packers. They're they're looking at, Hey,

111
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: it's not about what these not just about what these

112
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: guys have done, but about what we think they're going

113
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: to do here in the very near future. The Packers

114
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: are hoping to capitalize on players who they believe their

115
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: arrows are pointing up as they say, yeah exactly. And

116
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: I think when you look at all these guys being

117
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 1: twenty six age range, it worked out perfectly for them.

118
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: And the two thousand fifteen draft class for the Packers,

119
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: it it didn't work out the way they wanted it to.

120
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: But now you've been able to go and get some guys,

121
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: some really successful players out of that draft class. I

122
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: think to kind of augment at those positions. I think

123
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: a guy like Billy Turner too, brings a lot to

124
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 1: the offensive line in terms of his versatility. You know,

125
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: when you pay a player that much money, you would

126
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: expect he will start right guard. Appears to be the

127
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 1: starting opening right now, but it's understandable the Packers don't

128
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: want to pay him in a box at this case.

129
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: And then not to mention you also were able to

130
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: get Cole Madison back, returning for the start of the

131
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: offseason program after being away from the team last year.

132
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: So you know a lot of people in insider inbox

133
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: have talked about that being almost like an extra draft

134
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: pick this year as well. So I think as you

135
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 1: go into the draft now in a couple of weeks, Michael,

136
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: the Packers have been able to address enough of their

137
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: quote unquote needs that It just when you look at twelve,

138
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: when you look at thirty, when you look at forty four,

139
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't appear to me that it's like, Okay, you

140
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: have to get player X, you have to get position X.

141
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: Here Brian Goodacunts is going to have all of his

142
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,679
Speaker 1: options on the table. Yeah. I think that's the biggest

143
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: thing that this splurge and free agency did for the Packers,

144
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: and Goodacut's mentioned it immediately when he addressed the media.

145
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: You make these kinds of moves in free agency, and

146
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: it gives you all kinds of flexibility heading into the draft.

147
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: He was going to have some measure of flexibility anyway,

148
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: because he's going in with ten picks. He has the

149
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: extra first round pick um at the end of the

150
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: first round from the trade last year. Ten picks total.

151
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: But now, as you said, from a position standpoint, we

152
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: all know you you want to take the best player available.

153
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: You don't want to leave better players for your competition

154
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,559
Speaker 1: to draft. You got to take the best guy who's

155
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: there at that time. But we also know that roster

156
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: needs can sometimes start to you know, push the equations

157
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: or or throw things a little bit out of balance.

158
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: Goodakos doesn't have to look at it that way. With

159
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: the moves that he made in free agency, all the

160
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: flexibility for what he wants to do, take a best

161
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: player here, trade up, or trade back. He's got everything

162
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: as at his disposal now heading into the draft. And

163
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: I think that's one of the biggest things that these

164
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: early days of free agency accomplished for the Packers. YEA,

165
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: and and you want to be able to if you're

166
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: going to spend money, you want to spend it early.

167
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: You want to get the top end, guys, I think

168
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: you can make a case the Packers got the two

169
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: most coveted pass rushers there. I think Adrian Amos was

170
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: right up there as far as safety's and Billy Turner,

171
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: I think is a lot of potential in front of him,

172
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: even though he only has about one one and a

173
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: half two years of starting experience, a lot of versatility,

174
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: a lot of options, and as as you mentioned with

175
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: Brian Goodikins going into now his second draft is GM

176
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: ten picks to work with. The draft is his oyster

177
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: so to speak at this point in time. Yeah. Well,

178
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: in our upcoming couple of episodes, we're gonna take a

179
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: little bit closer look at the draft and where the

180
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: Packers stand at some different positions. But before I get

181
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: too far out of practice, here west the Green Bay

182
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,400

193
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: we mentioned players came back a week ago Monday on

194
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: April eight, if I'm getting my date correct. For the

195
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: start of offseason workouts, Packers get one extra week of

196
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: offseason workouts this year because of having a new head coach,

197
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: so they started a little bit earlier than a lot

198
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: of the other teams. But in sticking with things on

199
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball, I think if there

200
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: was one thing that I heard from the two defensive

201
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: players who addressed the media on that that first week

202
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: of offseason workouts, Blake Martinez and Kenny Clark answered some questions,

203
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: I really sensed a lot of enthusiasm and a lot

204
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: of excitement for the fact that Mike Patton is back

205
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: to continue what he started with this Packers defense. And

206
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: those were a couple of really key veterans, I thought,

207
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: expressing that very clearly and very open. Yeah. Absolutely, And

208
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: I mean you and I talked about it countless times

209
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: last season, and I'm not gonna sit here and go,

210
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, on a diet tribe about you know, last

211
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: year was one of the top ten seasons for a

212
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: Packers defense. It wasn't there was a lot to be

213
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: desired there yet. But when you look at what Petton

214
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: was up against, the fact that Truman Williams finished the

215
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: year at safety, even though that wasn't the plan at

216
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: all when they brought him back. The fact that they

217
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: had guys like Eddie Pleasant and I mean you look

218
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: at all these roster moves Abraham Campbell that come in

219
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: off the street and are in the starting lineup after

220
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: a week or two due to injuries. The fact, well

221
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: your defensive line that you wanted to start the year

222
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: with Mike Daniels, Kenny Clark and Mohammed Wilkerson. By December,

223
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: all three of those guys were an injured reserve. And

224
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: you're turning to Dean Lowry and Tyler Lancaster and guys

225
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: like that who really stepped up their games and are

226
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: showing a lot of promise here for nineteen. As as

227
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: the Packers get those injured guys back, and nobody was

228
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: a better example I guess of what the Packers that

229
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: the course the Packers defense took last year than Dan Lowery.

230
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy through the first month

231
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: of the season barely played. At the end of the season,

232
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: they couldn't get him off the field. It's just the

233
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: way the cookie crumbled for the Packers. But I think

234
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: now and again, you always have to knock on wood

235
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: in these cases. You never know exactly what's going to happen.

236
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: But I just think the team is better position to

237
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: stay healthy to have success. When you look at the

238
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: signings of a Preston Smith, he started every game, played

239
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: in every game that he's been in the league. Couldn't

240
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: even remember the last time he was down due to injury,

241
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: probably went back to high school, if not even before that.

242
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: You look at Zadarius Smith and being able to play

243
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: as often as he did. Adrian amsmiss what three games

244
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: and four seasons with the Bears, So you you never know.

245
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: You can't protict the future, but you know the past

246
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: is going to lead you to you know where where

247
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: you're going to be in the in the presence, So

248
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: by those guys not having injury history, I think is positive.

249
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: I think when you look at the areas of which

250
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: the Packers are building their defense around with Kenny Clark,

251
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: with with Blake Martinez, with the cornerbacks which you're Alexander,

252
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 1: they have studs in place. They have guys that can

253
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: be playmakers and difference makers and leaders in place. But

254
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: they needed to find a way to expedite that process.

255
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: I think these free agent additions have done that. Yeah.

256
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: And on the offensive side of the ball, the two

257
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: players we heard from when offseason workouts began, quarterback Aaron Rodgers,

258
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: wide receiver Davante Adams. No real surprises there. Rogers certainly

259
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: addressed as he had done on the radio, all the

260
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: stuff about the Bleacher Report article. I don't know about you.

261
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: I don't really want to get into it. I think

262
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: it's been rehashed and redone plenty. The key message being

263
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: the Packers leaders on offense, whether you're talking Rogers or

264
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: Adams or David Baktiari, Brian Bulaga, whoever you want to pick,

265
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: this offense is all about moving forward now. It's about

266
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur, it's about Nathaniel Hackett, It's about where the

267
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: future is and the immediate future as these guys start

268
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: to sink their teeth into the teeth into the playbook. Um,

269
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: we know they're not going to be doing any on

270
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 1: field stuff quite yet, but that's that's certainly coming up.

271
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: They're having meetings going for you know, some of the

272
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: some of the x's and os on the big screen,

273
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and um, again I sense it.

274
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: It's an excitement thing. There's there there's a newness. There's

275
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: a freshness to everything that's going on here. And when

276
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: your veteran players are are voicing that, I think that

277
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: speaks volumes to how things have gotten started. The There

278
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: was a line I made an inbox about two or

279
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: three weeks ago. And I'm not usually onet just to

280
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: toute my writing, but there was there was a point

281
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: I was trying to make with it, and that's if

282
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: you fix the fox fauce at the leaks stop right,

283
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: if you win football games, the outside noise quiet people.

284
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,719
Speaker 1: I'd ask, you know, are these things that Rogers needs

285
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: to address that Matt Lafourns are addressed. In my thought

286
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: the entire time has been you need to concentrate on

287
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: what's in the locker room. Now, if that's something that

288
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: La Fleur and Rogers want to talk about in a

289
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: private setting, that's up to them. But in terms of

290
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: that locker room, what's happened in the past, what happened

291
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: in two thousand eighteen doesn't dictate what happens in two

292
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: thousand nineteen. And I thought the amount of people that

293
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: stepped up, uh, not not just about the bleacher report thing.

294
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, you know, just Rodgers leadership, about this

295
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: team being six nine and one last year, about you know,

296
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy era ending, La Fleur era starting It's been

297
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: pretty important. I think if you talk to Matt la

298
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: Flour to start a new you know, you look at

299
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: the things he's done around the building, the new murals

300
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: that he's put up, the lighting has changed near the

301
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: locker room. They are trying to put their own imprint

302
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: on this thing. And for Matt Lafleur, it's about building

303
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 1: that relationship with Aaron Rodgers and getting them back on track.

304
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: There was a great question that was asked her in

305
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: the news conference with dot Davante Adams basically saying, Hey,

306
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: do you think Aaron Rodgers just wants to go out

307
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: there and you know, shove it up. Everybody's you know what,

308
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: you don't play well, and Adams said his first response was, well,

309
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: I know, I do. So there are guys on this

310
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: football team that are dedicated to Rogers that they want

311
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: to be successful again. That two thousand sixteen draft class

312
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: we were just talking about. Those guys went to an

313
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: NFC championship game and haven't been to the playoffs the

314
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: past two years. Aaron Jones has not been to a

315
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: playoff game played at Utah where they didn't have a

316
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: whole heck of a lot of success. There is a

317
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: hunger to be able to turn this thing around. And

318
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: as Aaron Rodgers said his most poignant statement in his

319
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: time addressing the media for eighteen minutes, he looks at

320
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: it from the fact that there is no grace period.

321
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: You are the Green Bay Packers. He's a two time

322
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: m v P quarterback, they have a veteran line, they

323
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: have a veteran corps. You gotta go out win some ballgames. Yeah,

324
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: And I think, as as I had mentioned when we

325
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: did a three Things video with Larry McCarron and in

326
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: in box other discussions that we've had that line about

327
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: no grace period, I I really took that one to heart,

328
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: because I don't think that was that was Rogers just

329
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: saying that. UM put it this way. I think he

330
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: was saying it for multiple reasons. Number One, whatever pressure

331
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: is going to be on him to perform and to

332
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: return to his m v P level, he's saying, bring

333
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: it on. I'm he's not. He's not gonna and there

334
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: at his locker every week and give excuses about, you know,

335
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: trying to learn the new offense and this, and that.

336
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: He's already drawn the line in the sand in that respect.

337
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: But I think he was also sending a message to

338
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: his teammates, to the rest of those guys in that

339
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: locker room that hey, there's no grace period for me.

340
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: There's none for you either whether you're in the second

341
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: year of Mike Patton's defense or the first year of

342
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur's offense. However you want to look at it,

343
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: this team is the goal is to win. The goal

344
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: is to get back to the playoffs and get back

345
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: to where this team has been. And and this isn't

346
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: about you know, being able to take a red shirt year,

347
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: so to speak, and just say, well, nobody's going to

348
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: expect anything of the Packers with the first year head coach,

349
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: and you know we'll worry about that's uh, your leader

350
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: number twelve there, the quarterback is saying, that's not the approach.

351
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: And everybody in there is a professional athlete at this point.

352
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: They're making good money to do what they do. Uh,

353
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: they are the cream of the crop. They are guys

354
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: who have gone through the scouting process with the Packers.

355
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: They felt that these are players that can become contributors

356
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: and become Pro Bowlers and All pros and be able

357
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: to win championships. And as Rogers said, that's what we

358
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: have to get back to, competing for championships. He even

359
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: made a little bit of a joke about the success

360
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 1: that the Brewers and the Bucks are having, Well, maybe

361
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: it's time for the Green Bay Packers to pick it

362
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 1: up too. That's what it ultimately comes down to, because

363
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: there is a culture that's been established and when you

364
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 1: go back to back seasons without making the playoffs, whatever

365
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,479
Speaker 1: reasons played into that, the fact that you didn't do

366
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: that was the first time in what twenty eight years

367
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: that that's happened. You have to find a way to

368
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: get some answers. I just think people want change, they

369
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: want adjustments, they want something new. The Packers certainly did

370
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: that from the top down this offseason. Something you gotta

371
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: roll the dice and see how it comes out. But

372
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: I mean the fact that they're at this point in

373
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: time now and at least there is that new energy

374
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,719
Speaker 1: that you're talking about. I think in terms of just

375
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: the off season, it's mission accomplished. Yeah. One other thing

376
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 1: I want to touch on here before we sign off

377
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: on our first show back West. Four Packers players in

378
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: recent weeks have announced their hirenment John Kuhn, Jordy Nelson,

379
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: Josh Sitting, and t J. Lang. It's quite a list.

380
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: I didn't think about it. I'm just gonna throw to

381
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: you all four of those guys Packers Hall of Famers. Yeah,

382
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: and equivocally, I think it's gonna be tough to get

383
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: them all in the same year. Yeah. That might. We

384
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: We'll have to see how they how it gets spaced

385
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: and parsed out here once they become eligible for the

386
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: Packers Hall of Fame. But I'm with you. I think

387
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: they all belong. I just think, and you know, and

388
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: I know everybody had a varying contribution to the Super

389
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: Bowl forty five team, Sitting was young and his career

390
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: as a starter. T J was still a backup. Jordy

391
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: came on late that season. John Kuhn was John kun

392
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: But the culture that they built, the cornerstones that they were,

393
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: and I think to you, man, the toughness that each

394
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: of them showed throughout their career. Yeah, you can't say

395
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: enough about it. It is weird, though, I will admit this,

396
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: and you've gone through this a little bit now having

397
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: covered the team since two thousand and six. It is

398
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: strange for me a little bit to see this start

399
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: happening because I remember, like it yesterday of writing a

400
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: story in the Packers locker room about how t J.

401
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: Lang and Josh Sitton were the youngest veterans on a

402
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: offensive line in the NFL. They were both like twenty

403
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: six or twenty seven years old, and it wasn't close.

404
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: A lot of teams had thirty year olds. They were

405
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: the two youngest, the two youngest guys to be leading

406
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: a room in the NFL. And that was like two

407
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: thousand twelve, and now they're retired. I mean, the NFL

408
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: moves quickly. It's why you have to make every game

409
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: count but to each of them, I think Packer fans

410
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: certainly owe a debt of gratitude for their contributions in

411
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: Green Bay. Yeah, I think you said it best. If

412
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: there's one characteristic I would apply to all four of

413
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: those guys across the board and everything they did for

414
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: Green Bay, it was toughness. It was it was getting

415
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: out there, giving everything they had, no matter what injuries

416
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: they were dealing with and what not, to get out

417
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: there and play. And uh, that's that's a group that

418
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,719
Speaker 1: won a lot of football games. Yeah. And I think

419
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: Mark Murphy has talked about this a little bit too.

420
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: At some point it sounds like the Packers will hold

421
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: the retirement ceremony for Jordy Nelson. That's going to be emotional. Yeah, because,

422
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: as I wrote an inbox, I think shortly after the announcement,

423
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's ever been a player, Honestly, goodness, Michael,

424
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's been a player in my

425
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 1: lifetime that's connected as well with the fan base as

426
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson did. He could have walked into any living

427
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: room in Green Bay, Wisconsin and fit in just like

428
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: another member of the family. I mean, that's just the

429
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: kind of guy he was, and certainly for him to

430
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: to step away the game at this point when I

431
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: think he could probably still play if he wants to,

432
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: probably says a lot about his outlook on life as well. Yeah,

433
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 1: certainly up there in adoration with another guy at his

434
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: position and Donald Driver in terms of the way the

435
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: fan base feels about him. So a couple of house

436
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: cleaning things, so to speak. I want to alert the

437
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: fans to keep an eye out on our website for

438
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: our pre draft position by position series that will be

439
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: launching this week. It'll go through this week and next

440
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: week taking a look at just where the Packers roster

441
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 1: stands at various positions heading into the draft. As I mentioned,

442
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: we'll be talking a little bit more about the draft

443
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: and our upcoming shows. And then also the word is

444
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: the NFL schedule for twenty nineteen is coming out this week,

445
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: so we will have that coverage on our website as

446
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: well as hopefully some time on a show to talk

447
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 1: about that when it happens. Absolutely, and one other thing

448
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 1: I want to throw out there too. We get so
