Thursday Cheese Curds: Two weeks until the 2026 NFL Draft
We’re two weeks away from the 2026 NFL Draft. Are you ready? If you’re like me, you’ve been ready for at least a month, maybe more. As soon as the NFL Combine is over and done with and I’ve had a chance to digest the results, I’m ready to get on to the main event. […]
Packers hosted college football playoff quarterback for visit
According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Green Bay Packers had in Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton for a pre-draft visit on Tuesday. The Packers are limited to just 30 of these pre-draft visits and usually end up targeting the players who come in, either as draft choices, undrafted free agents or […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Plenty of interesting late-round prospects
There have been a few pleasant side effects of the Packers not having a first round pick this year. One was getting to watch Micah Parsons in a Packers uniform, and we’ll get to enjoy that again this fall, whenever he returns from his torn ACL. But another is better draft coverage. People covering the […]
Green Bay Packers Draft: Quarterback Discussion
With the 2026 NFL Draft right around the corner, we’re going to start a series where we take a position-by-position breakdown of the Green Bay Packers’ roster and the upcoming draft class. We start today with the most important position in the sport: quarterback. Packers Quarterback Depth Chart It’s clear that Jordan Love is going […]
Packers Discussion: Favorite draft fits for Green Bay
Alright, let’s talk actual players today. I’ve done my best to watch the top-150-ish prospects in this class at this point, but I’m still cramming to finish the rest of the bunch. As of now, here are the players I like the most for what the Green Bay Packers need and like to do on […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: What do the Packers think of their offensive line?
Here’s a bit of a Rorschach test: was the Packers’ offensive line bad last year? Why or why not? Beyond saying “it wasn’t as good as expected,” I don’t think we can go much farther than that as far as substantive takes, because the real story of the offensive line is this: almost nobody ended […]
NFL Draft 2026: Georgia DT Christen Miller will take visit with Packers
The Green Bay Packers’ positions of focus for the 2026 NFL Draft are starting to come into focus. While the Packers are known to draft or sign players who came to the team facilities for formal pre-draft visits, an even more clear sign is the positions of the players whom they invite. With more than […]
Packers will host big, fast linebacker Jaden Dugger for pre-draft visit
The news just keeps coming on prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft who will be visiting the Green Bay Packers. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is working hard on the beat today, reporting a third visitor of the day to bring the total number of reported visitors up to 10 out of the maximum […]
NFL Draft 2026: Finding perfect Packers threshold players
It might physically kill a top-100 player to run agility drills this year. I’ve been running a Green Bay Packers thresholds big board for the past several years here at Acme Packing Company, an endeavor that grows increasingly futile each and every subsequent year as fewer players in the rounds that matter actually complete testing. […]
Packers host DT Kaleb Proctor for pre-draft visit
While a nose tackle remains a top need for the Green Bay Packers, general manager Brian Gutekunst and his front office are doing their homework on other defensive linemen in the 2026 NFL Draft, including Southeastern Louisiana’s Kaleb Proctor. Tom Silverstein with the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel tweeted on Monday that the Packers were hosting Proctor for […]
Packers to hold pre-draft visit with East Carolina wide receiver
The Green Bay Packers have no picks in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, so it should come as no surprise that none of the players on the list of official pre-draft visitors are among the top group of prospects. Still, the list of names so far reported contain a number of players […]
Ed Policy is tipping his hand on the Packers’ new Rivalries uniforms
It doesn’t take much imagination to guess what Ed Policy thinks of the Packers’ soon-to-be unveiled “Rivalries” uniforms. Writing in his monthly column last week, Policy didn’t give many specifics about what the Packers’ uniform would look like, but his response was telling. Answering a fan question about if or when the Packers would ever […]
Green Bay Packers News: Lambeau Field won’t be renamed ‘any time soon’
The Green Bay Packers will be the only NFL team without a naming rights deal on their stadium in a few years. Currently, Lambeau Field stands as one of just two stadiums in the league without a naming deal, Soldier Field being the other. But whenever the Chicago Bears manage to figure out their future […]
Green Bay Packers’ new alternative jersey will ‘celebrate owners’
Green Bay Packers president and CEO Ed Policy dropped some hints on what the Packers’ new Rivalries jerseys will look like in his recent monthly column. For those who aren’t aware, Nike and the NFL are going to create a new set of alternative uniforms for each team in the league, with two divisions getting […]
Packers bringing in combine’s fastest running back for an official visit
NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reported on Friday that the Green Bay Packers, along with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks, will bring in Arkansas running back Mike Washington Jr. on a pre-draft visit. At the moment, the Packers have some questions at the running back position, as MarShawn Lloyd has only been able to […]
Packers Draft: Green Bay to bring in top small school cornerback for visit
According to long-time NFL draft analyst Tony Pauline, the Green Bay Packers will be one of five teams that will host Stephen F. Austin cornerback Charles Demmings for a pre-draft visit. Generally, the Packers, at least post-pandemic, have leaned heavily on pre-draft visitors on draft day. Demmings has an interesting background and reasoning for why […]
Packers’ offseason workout & minicamp schedule set for 2026
Impressively, the Green Bay Packers are only a little more than two weeks away from the start of offseason workouts. The NFL released the dates of all of its teams’ offseason programs on Friday afternoon, with several teams set to begin next week. Teams starting on Monday or Tuesday are those with new head coaches, […]
Green Bay Packers News: Packers still quietly need a running back
All of the roster and Draft talk around the Green Bay Packers in the last few weeks has seemed to circle around a couple of positions. Nose tackle is still a big need, and the team could definitely use help at cornerback. The wide receiver position remains fascinating as well, as the team might still […]
The Packers were interested in signing Kirk Cousins
On Thursday, the Las Vegas Raiders signed Kirk Cousins to an odd contract, with a bunch of fluff added to it, for him to be their bridge quarterback, presumably so that Fernando Mendoza doesn’t have to start all 17 games as a rookie in 2026. On paper, Cousins signed a five-year, $172 million deal, but […]
Thursday Cheese Curds: 2026 Packers are a work in progress
The Packers have drawn some criticism for the way they’ve handled their offseason so far. Personally, most of the criticism doesn’t really land; I think what the Packers have done makes sense and really couldn’t have played out much differently. There wasn’t much reason to keep most of the free agents who left (or those […]
Matt LaFleur is repeating some of Mike McCarthy’s last words
The human brain wants to see patterns. It’s hardwired into us, and for good reason: seeing patterns keeps us alive. Ever since the first humans were hunting and gathering, we’ve relied on pattern recognition to keep us safe and fed. Here are those bushes where we found those tasty berries before; keep an eye out […]
Packers Discussion: Who do you want at pick #52?
Now that it’s officially the month of the draft, it’s time to lay it all out there: Who do you want the Green Bay Packers to draft with their first pick of the draft? The Packers won’t be picking until the 52nd overall selection, because they traded their 2026 and 2027 first-round picks in the […]
Packers Draft: Green Bay Pro Day Visit Tracker
Since the first few waves of free agency have already concluded, let’s take a look at some other work that the club has put in. At the moment, the team’s decision makers and their scouts are flying all across the country, hitting college pro days in search of information on top 2026 draft prospects. We’ll […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Ed Policy speaks at NFL Annual Meeting
The NFL’s Annual Meeting in Phoenix is a good reminder of one thing: we’re not far into the Ed Policy era, but he’s already had a lot to navigate. Since Policy took over, the Packers made a major trade and made significant decisions about the future of their front office and their coaching staff, all […]
The NFL is done with overlapping MNF games
Don’t expect the NFL to have overlapping Monday Night Football games moving forward, which has occasionally happened in recent years. According to Hans Schroeder, NFL Media’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, that era of the league is behind them. “This speaks to another theme of how we’re always talking to our partners,” Schroeder […]
