Gerg just visited Jaguars and is rumored to be visiting the Saints soon.

 

In today's installment of "blind squirrel finding nut":

@AaronNagler: Interesting that Reggie, Schneider and Dorsey, all guys whose teams could use a WR and are familiar with him, have no interest in Jennings.

Carden's arm motion is baseball-like in the video of him against Va Tech. His wind-up reminds me of Kerry Collins' (who managed to stick in the NFL a whole lot longer than anyone thought).

I've been to every one of Matt Blancard's games at Wisconsin Whitewater. And he led us to a national championship. Could not be happier. Now draft Jake Kumerow from Wisconsin Whitewater.

Former Warhawk Blanchard Signs With Packers

Fox Sports Wisconsin Story

Matt Blanchard, a standout quarterback for the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater football team from 2009-11, has signed a contract to play for the Green Bay Packers, his agent, Paul Sheehy, announced Wednesday, April 15.
 
Blanchard, who helped lead the Warhawks to three consecutive NCAA Division III national championships, three straight Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference titles and a 45-0 record, projects as the Packers' No. 3 quarterback behind reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers and former University of Wisconsin quarterback Scott Tolzien.
 
A native of Lake Zurich, Ill., Blanchard transferred from Northern Michigan University and backed up All-American Jeff Donovan in 2009. He became the starter in 2010, when he threw for 2,132 yards and 21 touchdowns against just one interception in 10 games played. Blanchard was injured just prior to the playoffs and missed the postseason.
 
In 2011, Blanchard returned and threw for 2,852 yards and 23 touchdowns to help lead UW-Whitewater to its fourth national title in the last five years. He was named first team All-WIAC for the second straight season and a third team All-American by D3football.com.
 
Blanchard is the program's all-time leader in completion percentage (70.4 percent) and currently ranks among career leaders in yards (5,106), touchdowns (44), completions (393), attempts (558) and consecutive attempts without an interception (212).
 
The Chicago Bears picked up Blanchard as a free agent in 2012, and Blanchard spent just over a season with the franchise before finishing the 2013 campaign as a member of the Carolina Panthers' practice squad.
 
He returned to Carolina in 2014, but was placed on injured reserve after suffering a concussion during the preseason.
 
Blanchard is one of 24 former Warhawks who have played professionally.

Not noted on the board yet but former Packer Daryn Colledge officially retired this week.

 

Got a lot of justified stick here while with the Pack (Colledge!) but guy carved himself out a nice career. Got a ring and got paid to boot.

 

Related, good tale here. Colledge has teamed with running mates Jason Spitz and Tony Moll to start a wine label, "Three Fat Guys" (http://threefatguyswines.com/). Cool.
