The most secret of secret weapons.

Roberts was previously traded to the #Patriots for a 7th round pick but the deal fall after he failed his physical.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm hoping we can add another TE somewhere along the line.... we only have 7. Really concerned about the depth there.
4 of the 7 were basically signed off the street, 1 is a raw rookie and 2 are rapidly declining veterans. Looks like quantity and not quality.
Sarcasm. Competition for the bottom of the roster. Gutey is at least doing his due diligence to know what is out there.
Source: the Packers have waived TE Michael Roberts due to a failed physical. He was recently acquired on waivers. Second time he’s failed a physical in a week.

They make it sound like a wild coincidence.
Former 4th rounder. Was worth verifying the health situation.
I am glad Gute is kicked the tires on Roberts. No harm in claiming a player and taking a look at him to see if he can play. I will give Gute one thing he doesn't sit around he is aggressive.
The #Patriots are adding some tight end help before training camp, signing TE Lance Kendricks, source said. He had 19 catches for the #Packers last year and will assist in filling the Rob Gronkowski void.

Cryboy News. Also New Orleans number 1 weapon in Michael Thomas not reporting either.
It’s official. My sources tell me Ezekiel Elliott is not on the flight to LA. Again, he has until Friday am to show up at camp though. Players have chosen to fly on their own in the past #Cowboys #TrainingCamp
Packers sign RB Corey Grant? (Saw this on Facebook; don’t know if it’s true, nor do I know who Corey Grant is!)
DT Mike Daniels for RB Corey Grant?
I haven't seen anything in the news. But maybe it will come today.
Grant, 27, went undrafted out of Auburn in 2015. Has spent last 4 seasons in Jacksonville (454 rush yards, 5.6 avg., 18 catches). #Packers OC Nathaniel Hackett would be very familiar with him.

Start with Bringing Up Baby or North by Northwest. 
Matt LaFleur on the addition of former Jaguars RB Corey Grant: "I know he's really, really fast." Grant reportedly ran a sub-4.3 40 at his Auburn pro day when he came out in 2015. LaFleur said offensive coordinator Nate Hackett, who coached him in Jacksonville, helped recruit Grant because he had other offers.
This statement is not true. He ran a sub 4.2 at his Auburn pro day. Think it was 4.18.
Seems like it’s a camp tradition to maybe finally find a ST return guy to flip field position.
This years guy is Corey Grant. He’s got a legitimate shot at making the 53 with ST. Only because, as mentioned above, he’s really, really fast.

Love it!!!!! Gutey is really focused to bounce up the athleticism in GB. Can't teach speed. I'd love to have a real, legit threat at PR/KR. Again. The thought of Beebe leading Des through the holes was pure magic on returns. Have missed that ever since.

Wonder what that registered on the Richter Scale?
Great. He can catch/run for a TD and have a made-for-tv celebration.

Might be Fedya’s best post ever.
May you be spammed with 80's European pop videos and obituaries for the next 3 years.

Hateful. Henry, I'm... shocked. You freaking wanker.

Loved both of those, Fedya. NxNW has one of my favorite lines (James Mason).
AJ Green from Bengals Carted off field with foot injury
You would have a foot injury too if you had to play for the Bengals

I heard he wore shoe lifts.
Gute still churning the roster.
Wonder what's up with all the RB additions?
