"(Evan) Dietrich-Smith is solid."
Yeah baby!

"(Evan) Dietrich-Smith is solid."
Yeah baby!
Technically, he is a solid even though he plays like a gas.
.....along with Sherrod.
Final pieces, baby.
Unless the Super Bowl is won by a heads-up play by Evan Dietrich-Smith, I will consider this season to be a complete and utter failure.
The Packers are a team in the running, but as always it will come down to injuries and how much the young guys improve.
Oh boy! That Kool-Aid looks awful good! May I have some?
Seriously, the read was encouraging.
Not so fast.
It was Scout from "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Prepare for disappointment.
"(JC) Tretter has a chance to be pretty good."
Not as good as Pro Bowler.
If JC Tretter didn't grow up and go to school an hour from both of my hometowns, I'd say he's the next Breno.
What has where Tretter grew up got to do with Breno - who is considerable bigger?
If there wasn't a reference made to this "scout" watching the SF game, I would've sworn this was written in the pre-season.

Tretter isn't an idiot like yuck nuts. Only Barbre made him look smart. Tretter is the next Matt Birk. I'm all about the positivity.
Big Ern is keeping the spot warm for him. Let's hope he doesn't get munsoned in the meantime.
So he says the Pack is one of NINE teams that can win it all? The guy is a genius!
My 9 year old has been saying that all year long.
Well, at least he didn't say 1 of 31 (I'll go out on a limb & throw the Jags out)
"(Evan) Dietrich-Smith is solid."
Yeah baby!
The Packer coaching staff, AR and teammates and scouts all seem to have the same opinion.
Why is everybody so convinced Tretter is going to be such a good player?
Because he's not Big Ern. Are you rooting against the guy due to your romance with Big Ern?
I'd never root against a Packer... I'm am curious why you think a rookie 4th round pick who broke his ankle in the first OTA practice and hasn't been seen since is the next Matt Birk though.
And there's no romance from my end with "Big Ern." He is what he is, a decent football player that you can win with. There's no doubt he can be upgraded but he's nowhere near a garbage player you like to portray him as. Experts agree.
I think EDS looks good to his coaches and teammates in relation to Jeff Saturday. We saw what the rest of the league and even his own front office thought of him during the offseason. Ted gave EDS the lowest tender and no teams were interested.
Admit it. You love Big Ern.
Personally, I like Tretter because of his intelligence (overcome his coaching) and proven ability to switch positions and produce. Add in he has solid size and the ability to grow even more (you know, develop).
I threw out the Matt Birk comparison for ****s and grins. Ivy League player, late round pick, smert.
The biggest thing I like about Tretter, it probably won't take him 4 years to aspire to the pinnacle of being average. I would have loved Schwenke but TT missed him by a couple of picks.
Admit it. You love Big Ern.
Nope. But I am right about him.
Hey, if Tretter comes out and improves the position I'm all for that.

Ted also let James Jones completely walk and nobody wanted him either. Does he suck too?
Big Ern is maxed out.

Jones had a serious case of the dropsies and got his **** together. Big Ern defaulted into his position.
