Packers OG Evan Dietrich-Smith Doesn't Want To Be Known For The 'Stomp'

Found June 25, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Evan Dietrich-Smith,  Ndamukong Suh,  Jeff Saturday
TEAMS: Green Bay Packers,  Detroit Lions
Evan Dietrich-Smith doesn’t want to be known as that guy, you know, the one that Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh stomped on. So, Dietrich-Smith is hopeful he can be associated with something else very soon as he works to carve out a spot as a backup on the Green Bay Packers’ offensive line. Dietrich-Smith has been working behind new center Jeff Saturday and at guard. He could nail down the swing job on the interior. “I'm not here to be that guy Suh stomped on,” Dietrich-Smith told Lori Nickel of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “It just happened to be on national TV, but I can't really do anything about that. I don't want to be that guy. I'm out to prove I'm not just that guy. I'm the guy that plays for the Packers.”

Speed and the Newest Packers: Perception vs. Reality

Via AllGreenBayPackers.com  |  June 26, 2012
How do the new Packers compare speed-wise to other rookies? Even though most of my time for the past month has been spent doing team draft grades, I have indeed been watching roster activity and the rumor mill. I want to touch on a couple of aspects of the Packers’ current roster and it’s composition. But before I head in that specific direction I want to debunk one of the myths...

Packers CB Williams still limited by shoulder

Via Fox Sports Wisconsin  |  June 25, 2012
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- When Packers cornerback Tramon Williams initially injured his right shoulder in Week 1 of last season, the team described it as a bruise, news that coach Mike McCarthy called "positive" at the time. Nine months later, given the poor condition of Williams' shoulder, it's safe to assume that original diagnosis was inaccurate. "We did strength...

Green Bay Packers Find Players and Wins in Rock Island Illinois

Through their history the Green Bay Packers have drafted football players from the Mississippi River town of Rock Island, Illinois. These players helped the team become the champions they are today. Herm Schneidman, Kenneth Duncan, and Ken Bowman are three such players who were born and or played high school football in Rock Island. I would like to take a quick snap shot of one...

Tramon Williams suffering from nerve damage in his shoulder

Via Pro Football Zone  |  June 26, 2012
Getty Images Green Bay Packers cornerback Tramon Williams suffered a shoulder injury during week one of last season.  At the time the Packers didn’t think it was serious, but he apparently suffered some nerve damage. “We did strength tests on my shoulder (in early June) and it was at about 50 percent when they tested,” Williams said on the last day of the team’s offseason...

Packers Roster Countdown: Part 3

Via gnb.scout.com  |  June 26, 2012
It's like Noah's Ark as we hit on players Nos. 71-81: two centers, two receivers, two tackles, two fullbacks and two running backs. The Packers didn't draft a center, making Sampson Genus and Tommie Draheim two players to recall. And one of the fullbacks has a ton of upside.

Packers CB Tramon Williams Still Dealing With Serious Shoulder Injury

Via GridironFans.com  |  June 26, 2012
Tramon Williams still is not over a shoulder injury he suffered during the Green Bay Packers’ season opener last year, and you have to winder when the cornerback will be healed. Williams told Fox Sports Wisconsin that tests conducted early this month showed his right shoulder was at about 50 percent strength – a long ways off from where he would like to be. Still, it’s an improvement...

Fantasy Football 2012: Optimizing Your Bench

Via PPR Fantasy Football  |  June 26, 2012
If you have an elite QB like Aaron Rodgers, there is no need for a backup. It is all about getting the most you can out from your roster.  Optimizing your bench is crucial in fantasy football because there are always injuries that occur and matchups play a huge roll in who you start. But what is the best way do that? First NEVER! EVER! IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE have 2 kickers...

Report: Browns not interested in trading for James Jones

Via Pro Football Zone  |  June 24, 2012
Getty Images According to Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer, the Browns aren’t interested in trading for Packers wide receiver James Jones. It would make sense for the Packers and Browns to work out a deal that would send Colt McCoy to Green Bay for Jones, but both teams aren’t interested in making anything happen.

James Jones is looking for more respect. They say you can never have enough talent. When you’ve acquired all that talent, the question becomes how do you get the most productivity and value out of said talent. The Green Bay Packers have no shortage of talent on the offensive side of the ball, especially when it comes to pass catchers. The record-breaking group is back intact after...
