The Packers begin their offseason workout program today. A league-high six Packers have a workout bonus of $500K or more, while no team has more collectively available in workout bonuses than Green Bay's $5,755,500.

Jason Spriggs had to pay $75,000 just for the Packers to let him in the building.

Opie looks older. I'd say he could easily pass for 15 1/2 now.
Now he looks like the sophomore exchange student from the Netherlands rather than the freshman.
I'm told Madison was at Lambeau Field today, when the Packers opened their offseason program. Big step for him. https://t.co/2OdQQoAqnf

Really nice to see Cole Madison back. If he stayed in shape, that could change their OL's needs entirely.
Assuming he doesn't leave again and (as PACKERBOI stated) he is in shape, may add even more flexibility to Gute's draft plans.
Hope this is legit because he worked his stuff out, and not some ploy to avoid having to return money he's been paid.
I wouldn't be more surprised if I woke up this morning with my head sewn to the carpet.
The best thing for this week?
Getting the new guys a little taste of Green Bay winter Thursday!
Is MLF teaching a cooking class? And now I'm hungry.
It was an honor to stand in front of this great group of men today for the first time. We are excited to get work. #GoPackGo #Packers pic.twitter.com/K99ruJt13p

Former University of Wisconsin players Alec Ingold (FB), Andrew Van Ginkel (OLB) and Ryan Connelly (LB) are among those visiting the Packers tomorrow and Thursday as part of the team’s local prospect day, according to sources.

Ingold is going to be a Packer
Ooh, another white fullback.
is that the name of your boy band?
They wanted to go with Another White Tightend, but it was taken.
Aaron Rodgers has now twice dismissed the idea of a "grace period" under new coach Matt LaFleur. All the pieces are in place. Expectation is to play well right away in a new system.

#Packers DT Kenny Clark, who finished season on IR with elbow injury, said he didn’t need offseason surgery. He’s full go for spring.

Lots of talk this season about #Packers needing a slot WR. Keep this in mind though: Davante Adams is gonna get snaps there: "I think that’s something that Matt is definitely looking forward to having me do, and I’m definitely looking forward to doing."

#Packers ILB Blake Martinez says he’s gained 7 pounds but lost 3% body fat. He’s bigger, and stronger, in other words. “So not messing around this year,” he said.
— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) April 10, 2019
Blake Martinez knows he’s in a contract year, because duh. But said this is how he addressed it with his agent: “Hey, you’re going to have to deal with that, and I’m just going to play football.” So his focus is on the field, as expected.
— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) April 10, 2019
So Martinez is saying he messed around in previous seasons?

I thought it was Average White Tight End.
So not a good bubble?
Looks like our RB's ain't messin' around either..
Aaron Rodgers has said RBs Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams returned in great shape. He said he used to tease Jones that "he's the most athletic, fat dude with a bit of a belly ... But he looks pretty lean." https://t.co/D4Nh108s9h pic.twitter.com/6trw96V48q

The Packers have claimed K Sam Ficken off of waivers from the Seahawks, per source.
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) April 15, 2019
Appropriate name if he makes it . Ficken Kicker
Terrible leader - body shaming Packer RB's - Ashley Graham & Kate Upton are not amused.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur on any Aaron Rodgers drama: I wasn't here, so I don't know what happened. And quite frankly, I don't really care what happened. ➡️ https://bit.ly/2V07Q1a
Bears should have signed Ficken. Imagine a TC battle between Ficken and Bluitt.
Perfect kicker for the Vikes when Bailey goes all spazo and misses his first 4 field goal attempts.
Wonder if the Packers front office took bets on whether the vikings would grab Ficken if the Packers let him go?
DNP for the #Packers at voluntary minicamp today:

CB Kevin King
**actually no reason given - couldn't resist.
You can tell by the distance Rodgers is putting between him an LeFrog that he has no respect for him at all. Already scheming on how to get him fired.
Really looking forward to all the voluntary minicamp pics because Winston Moss won’t be in any of them.

Murphy “Joe, we’d like you to finish the year as interim coach”
Joe “Am I going to be back next year?”
Murphy “Not a chance”
Joe “Can I at least fire Moss?”
Murphy “Sign here....”
Joe “You’re a terrible President”
Murphy “Need you sign this NDA as well”
