Packers’ Desmond Bishop Thinks He is DPOY Caliber
Green Bay Packers linebacker Demond Bishop started 13 games in 2011 to help lift the Packers to a 15-1 record, but in 2012, never made his way back to the turf after a disappointing hamstring injury got in his way. As a result, Bishop was a heavy favorite to be traded a month ago by Ted Thompson, but now looks likely to remain in green and gold for at least one more year. Most players...
Five potential breakout players for 2013: Who will it be?
Packers CB Davon House
Every NFL season begins with a blank slate and ends with a long list of newly-minted star players.
Last season, 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick may be the prime example of a player that took the next step and pushed his team to the next level, as San Francisco won the NFC and advanced to Super Bowl XLVII.
Broncos receiver Demaryius Thomas went from being...

Surviving Sunday: Packers News, Notes and Links for the Football Deprived
Surviving Sundays with no Packers Football
Forgive me, Packers fans, I’m about to stick up for the Chicago Bears.
(*The author pauses for a moment to put on his bullet-proof vest, change the locks on his home, and take a deep breath*)
I have no problem with the Bears one year, $2 million contract offer to Brian Urlacher. I’m actually insulted that Urlacher called the offer ...
Packers Re-Sign LB Brad Jones
Veteran linebacker Brad Jones re-signed with the Packers on Thursday. Early on, Jones drew significant interest in a weak class of free agent ILB class. But after visiting the Tennessee Titans last week, Jones returned to Green Bay Wednesday for a visit and then got a deal done.

If Brad Jones Leaves, Packers Affected More Than You Think
Jones has garnered much interest in free agency. If he departs, Jones could create a big void at inside linebacker for the Packers

2013 Packers Position Group Analysis: Inside Linebackers
Packers Inside Linebackers: If nothing else, the 2012 team showed us how deep we are at inside linebacker. After losing two starters in Desmond Bishop and D.J. Smith, the Packers were still able to keep things together with Brad Jones in the lineup. The caveat, however, is that while the group is deep, there are no real “blue chip” players to be found.

Packers Brad Jones: 2012 Player Evaluation and Report Card
Brad Jones
1) Introduction: Taken in the seventh round of the 2009 draft by the Packers, Brad Jones has so far had an interesting career, to say the least. He was thrust into a starting role during his rookie year when Aaron Kampman suffered a season-ending injury. Jones remained the starter in 2010 until a shoulder injury sidelined him for the rest of the year. Since then, he has...
2013 NFL Free Agents the Packers Could Sign, but Probably Won’t
Center Dan Koppen is a free agent the Packers could possibly sign, but likely won’t.
We started the conversation about the Packers biggest draft needs by position group on Monday. Now let’s take a look at possible free-agent targets for Ted Thompson.
