Decision on Flynn Will Be in Best Interests of Franchise
The choice to trade Matt Flynn isn’t entirely up to Ted Thompson and the Packers. The value of the quarterback will be determined by any trading partner.
In One Day Chastin West’s Value Multiplies
“In a span of a couple of hours, wide receiver Chastin West went from flying under the radar to hot commodity.”
Demand For Quarterbacks Could See Packers Trade Down
With other NFL teams looking to address the quarterback position, the Packers could be the beneficiary in a draft day trade.
Matt Flynn, Nick Barnett, Trades & The CBA
Until a new Collective Bargaining Agreement is in place, the Packers wouldn’t be able to trade Matt Flynn or Nick Barnett, even if they wanted to.
Marshawn Lynch Traded To Seahawks
Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch was finally traded on Tuesday, although not to the Green Bay Packers.

Rumors of a trade involving the former first round draft choices are intensifying.
Packers Daily Links 9.2.10
The possibility of a trade involving Breno Giacomini highlights today’s look at the world of Green Bay football…
Several Candidates Could Be Trade Bait
Players at offensive line, cornerback, fullback and tight end are the most likely candidates to be traded away if Ted Thompson chooses to do so.
Colledge and Spitz Have Trade Value
Daryn Colledge and/or Jason Spitz could be enticing to teams in need of offensive line help sometime during preseason…
Packers Want To Jump Up In Draft?
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the Packers have “expressed interest in trading up to 10-12 range.” This, of course, has set off the BS Detectors here at CHTV headquarters…
Will Packers Entertain Trading Flynn?
Slow news day, someone in the comments suggested a post on it, why the hell not. I did get lots of emails and Tweets regarding this report in the Cleveland Plain Dealer: The Browns, who are also interested in Seattle backup Seneca Wallace and possibly also Green Bay backup Matt Flynn, will most likely let [...]
Packers Looking At Cromartie?
Buried at the end of this report from Chris Mortensen over at ESPN.com about the San Diego Chargers looking to trade for a running back, with cornerback Antonio Cromartie as the bait, is this little tidbit: Several teams are looking for cornerback depth, including the Green Bay Packers, sources said.The Chargers may be willing to [...]
Cullen Jenkins: Trade Bait?
We have the best readers here at CHTV. Seriously. Regular readers of our comment sections will recognize the handle “CSS” – who just happened to have the exchange outlined below with Tom Pelissero during Tom’s chat about the defensive line today over at the Green Bay Press Gazette: I may get killed for saying it, [...]
Packers Looking At Peppers?
Michael Lombardi lists the Panthers’ Julius Peppers and the Packers as possible partners (how about THAT for some alliteration?) in a trade. We’ve been down this road before, but it does indeed bear watching. The Panthers have yet to win a game and they are paying Peppers a huge some of money on a Franchise Tag deal [...]
The Casey Hampton Possibility
I would be shocked if the Steelers actually traded/cut nose tackle Casey Hampton. I would be even more flabbergasted if Ted Thompson brought Hampton in. While some are trying to throw water on the reports, there seems to be a slight rumble that the Steelers coaching staff has grown weary of Hampton’s offseason work habits [...]
Peppers For Kampman?
Brian over at Railbird overheard something juicy on the radio this morning and Tweeted the following: Peppers unhappy with 4-3 in Carolina, Kampman unhappy in 3-4. Trade possible? The Panthers should be so lucky. Look, as much as I’ve seemingly come out against Kampman, he is leagues better as a football player and teammate than [...]
The Quiet Before The Storm?
Apparently that’s what it feels like at 1265 Lombardi, according to the Director of Public Relations: Awful quiet here today. Learned long ago that often means something is about to happen (though that doesn’t mean I know something). Obviously, the Pack is about to trade for Julius Peppers.
Patriots Targeting Jenkins
It figures. Now, this could be the mother of all smoke screens, but I would not put anything past Belichick and company. In fact, I wouldn’t be surpised if they were trying to jump ahead of the Packers specifically becuase they think Thompson wants to select Jenkins. Let the games begin!
And So It Begins…
Peter King says the Patriots want to jump up into the Top 10 and the Packers are a possible trading partner. King says the object of their affection isn’t known, other than to say it would be a ‘surpise’. Apparently the Pats dangled their first and one of their second round picks to the Jags [...]
Could Thompson Finally Trade For Moss?
Jarvis, that is. Word this afternoon from National Football Posts’ Wes Bunting is that the Broncos have dangled the defensive end in trade talks. Moss’ value is at an all time low, almost as low as Justin Harrell’s. But unlike Harrell, I think Moss can play. Thompson should ship the Broncos a 5th or 6th [...]
Gonzalez Traded…to the Falcons
Thompson can now officially cross trading for Gonzalez off his To Do list. I mean really, if he’s not going to bother doing the simple tasks I give him…I will say, however, that I think Thompson is wise to stick to his guns. A second rounder seems a bit much.
So Much For Gonzalez
Looks like the Chiefs won’t be trading Tony Gonzalez. So much for my To-Do list….
Thompson\’s \’To Do\’ List…
…after he gets back from the annual NFL meetings. Resign Greg Jennings Sign Kevin Carter Produce a knock-out draft class (with either B.J. Raji or Michael Oher in tow) Trade for Tony Gonzalez Resign Tramon Williams Resign Daryn Colledge Now, there are plenty of other things I would LIKE to see Thompson do (ie trade [...]
Yes, I Am Throwing This Against the Wall…
…and seeing if it will stick. First, there’s this (from an anonymous NFL source): I could see Julius Peppers going to the Packers or the Broncos. They are both moving to 3-4 fronts. He could make the kind of impact in Green Bay that Reggie White did. I know we’d love to have him, but I think the market [...]
Thompson Should Look At Michael Bush
If the reports are true that the Raiders are shopping running back Michael Bush, Thompson should at least attempt to explore the possibility of acquiring the Raider tailback. He has a ridiculously cheap salary and, more importantly, showed in the season finale (see: 2:55) that he is more than capable of making a meaningful contribution [...]
File Under: A Guy Can Dream, Can\’t He?
Ted, time to get on the phone and offer the Browns the third round pick you got from the Jets for Favre in return for Shaun Rogers, who apparently wants out of Cleveland in the worst way. Nose tackle problem = solved. You’re welcome.
Jason Taylor 2: Electric Boogaloo
Greg Bedard starts the drumbeat for the Packers and Ted Thompson to persue Jason Taylor this offseason. Bedard points to Taylor being able to fill two glaring voids on the Packers roster: a pass rusher and veteran leadership. I agree with Bedard’s sentiments overall, but he goes a bit overboard with the following: The Packers [...]
Just Floating It Out There…
Philadelphia Eagles wide out Kevin Curtis will miss up to eight weeks after undergoing surgery for a sports hernia he suffered during the Eagles preseason game against the Panthers. The Eagles have a very deep defensive line. The Packers have a very deep wide receiving corps. I’m just saying…
The Bidding War Is On
According to a source quoted at the Green Bay Press Gazette. A “bidding war” is going on between the New York Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers to obtain the veteran quarterback, according to a source close to the situation. And that could be causing the hold-up. Yes, Thompson is in heaven.
Jets Not Out Of It Yet
According to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports, reporting on ESPN Radio (how’s THAT for some corporate crossover): Right now the Jets have a better deal on the table than the Buccaneers do…The deal the Jets are offering right now is so much sweeter than the deal the Buccaneers are offering. And now word comes that [...]
