Latest news and updates about the Packers
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 […]
One of the biggest surprises in free agency was our Miami Dolphins going out and signing former Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Malik Willis to a three-year, $ 67.5 million deal. The surprise was not that a team with no qualified starter on the roster, once its prior starter, Tua Tagovailoa, was cut, would be […]
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, […]
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, […]
Four match-ups are in the books, and we now know two of our Elite 8 matchups. The Jahdae Walker game-tying catch against the Packers will square off against the Cole Kmet game-tying heave against the Rams. In the other elite 8 matchup, the Luther Burden Flea Flicker will square off against the DJ Moore touchdown […]
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 […]
The Las Vegas Raiders have recently signed Green Bay Packers linebacker Quay Walker. Let’s get to know Walker more: Forever connected to old friend: Walker was teammates with fellow new Las Vegas free-agent addition Nakobe Dean at Georgia. They won a National Championship in 2021, just before they were drafted. Walker and Dean were in […]
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 […]
We have reached day two in the voting for Caleb Williams’ best play of the season in a March Madness-style bracket. Yesterday, we saw Jahdae Walker’s game-tying TD catch vs Green Bay advance over the needle-threading TD throw to Olamide Zaccheaus, also vs the Packers. We saw the Cole Kmet game-tying heave vs the Rams […]
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 […]
The New England Patriots missed out on arguably the top wide receiver in this year’s free agency class, Indianapolis’ Alec Pierce, but they still managed to make a splash at the position. Romeo Doubs, formerly of the Green Bay Packers, arrived in Foxborough on a four-year, $68 million contract. While an annual average value of […]
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 […]
Jon-Eric Sullivan is looking to overhaul how the Miami Dolphins draft players, and his Packers roots could give fans an idea of what prospects to focus on.
The Packers made 52 draft picks from 2021 to 2025. The Miami Dolphins made 30. Sullivan's arrival could change everything.
Jon-Eric Sullivan and Jeff Hafley are coming over from the Green Bay Packers and hopefully revitalizing this Miami Dolphins team. The Packers have been a solid drafting team over the years and now the ‘Green Bay Way’ is coming to Miami. Sullivan has already stated he would like to draft a quarterback every year and […]
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 […]
ESPN’s Kevin Seifert said the NFL is “laying groundwork for hiring replacement officials this season.” This wouldn’t be the first time the league did this. Back in 2012, the first three weeks of the regular season were refereed by part-timers. And who could forget the “Fail Mary” between the Packers and Seahawks? Seifert reported the […]
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 […]
Brian Gutekunst has now been the Packers’ general manager for nearly a decade. 2026 will be his ninth draft as GM, and if you needed any more evidence that you’re getting old, here’s a sobering fact: the Packers have now completely cycled two full Gutekunst draft classes on and off the roster. Last year the […]
The Green Bay Packers have been giving hints that the team will return to a 3-4 base defense in 2026 under new coordinator Jonathan Gannon, but the team’s coaching announcements on Thursday all but locked that in place. When announcing the team’s full coaching staff for the coming season, a subtle piece of information that […]
