How Will Capers Do It?

Aaron Nagler in 3-4 defense, Al Harris, Dom Capers

Much has been written about Dom Capers and how he will put his defensive players in a position to be successful. It’s a wonderful thought and you hear it all the time around the league on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. “We want to put our players in a position to [...]

If Poppinga Is Cut…

Aaron Nagler in Brady Poppinga

…it won’t be because of his salary.
I know many fans (and Bloggers) were critical of Poppinga’s extension last offseason. I understood it from a rewarding a good-locker-room-guy standpoint, not to mention I (mistakenly) thought Poppinga was improving at the end of 2007 and would continue to do so in 2008. Unfortunately, Brady seemed to not [...]

Bedard Is Spot On

Aaron Nagler in Greg Bedard, NFL, National Media

When it comes to this dreck on offer from Ross Tucker over at CNNSI, where Tucker basically surmises that the Packers, as the only team to open it’s books due to it’s standing as the only publicly owned team, should have whittled away their profit margin by going on a spending bonanza. Why would they [...]

Always Room For Improvement

Aaron Nagler in Aaron Kampman, Aaron Rodgers

When I did my series on Aaron Rodgers earlier this offseason (1, 2, 3) about what I felt were the biggest things he needed to work on heading into 2009, I caught some grief from some of my fellow bloggers about going after guys who weren’t perceived as ‘part of the problem’. (Indeed, the series [...]

What Good Are OTAs & Mini-Camp?

Aaron Nagler in Jimmy Robinson, Joe Philbin, Mike McCarthy

Let me show you something.
The video below is a rare treat, in that it is actual coaches film, not the broadcast stuff most of us are used to. There are about 50 things I could talk about in the video below, but right now I want to concentrate on one. Watch the top two receivers [...]

Seifert (Mostly) On Point Regarding Raji

Aaron Nagler in B.J. Raji

A very good post from Kevin Seifert over at ESPN’s NFC North Blog regarding B.J. Raji and the seemingly surpising move by the Packers to play him at defensive end. Seifert takes the (correct) view that this is a case of the Packers getting their best players on the field, but I think there’s more to [...]

Demovsky. DEMOVSKY!

Aaron Nagler in Brett Favre, Wisconsin Media

Seriously.
From his chat over at PackersNews.com this afternoon:

[Comment From Geoff]
Am I a bad Packer fan if I feel like hating Favre for the number of years he plays with the Vikings x 2? If they happen to win the SB, it would be number of years x 10.
Rob Demovsky: Shouldn’t [...]

Now It All Makes Sense…

Aaron Nagler in Nick Collins

Remember last year when Ryan Grant was holding out? Remember how maddening it was and how little sense it seemed to make? Well, guess who represents Nick Collins? That’s right, Sportstars, the same group the represents Grant.
Now it all makes sense.
