I feel like Elgersma ends up on the Green Bay PR.

I hope so, but I don’t think he will.

I really don’t know about that. He’s not a feel good story down there like he would be up here. It costs them nothing to get rid of him and bring in another body they like better.

I think his talent is top tier, but his polish needs a lot of work and time. Not a great investment for them unless they really love his intangibles and coaching/locker room fit. 
 That’s the best case for us imo. Have him in camp next year with a year of nfl coaching. 
Other wise I’d alternate him n chase on the ir to keep both around.

DB Jordan Taylor (James Madison) might be getting signed. He was added to the neg list on Saturday and removed on Sunday.

OL Justin Mayers out of Colorado has been added to the PR. Went to Broncos mini-camp this year but got cut. Played Guard throughout his NCAA career.

Listed at 6'4", 320. Pure guard. Interesting add.

Yeah interesting move. I don’t know that they look at him as a T project either. Elite run blocker, if he picks things up fast we might go back to 3 imp ol. This move smacks of wanting an imp guard.

Not a Smurf but not overly tall, either.

If Oliviera is to be effective, we need to have better blocking at guard and center as teams are clogging up the middle on us. To me, it would be a helluva lot easier and quicker to replace Kolankowski as his ineptness affects the inside run game and also makes life a lot harder for Neufeld and Wallace.

"No that ain't it" Mike O'Shea... probably

Brady has been effective, but yeah, better interior play would help. And primarily around the C spot.
