Rodgers: Bring him ON!!

Watch Betard try to make this BrINT/Randy Part Deux.

If Lynch is on the block and if you feel this is the year for a Super Bowl, and by all accounts it is, you make this deal even if you need to overpay.

No matter what you think of BJack and his ability to handle the load as a starter, a RB trio of BJack/Lynch/Kuhn and much more appealing than BJack/Kuhn/practice squad guy.

Make the deal TT!

The price was likely less in April than now with Grant done for the year.

Don't really see Thompson giving up much for Lynch... what has ML done lately?

Character issues or not, he is the player I wanted in the '07 draft. I was pissed when Buffalo got him. Of course we ended up with the stud Bustin so what do I know. :/

Not much, but I do know this; over the last two years the bills had one of the worst offensive lines in this league. I hope everyone takes that into account before saying Lynch would or wouldn't be a good trade.

I have a few questions tough. What's the deal with his ankles? What exactly were the character issues?

Ted will talk to him when he sees him on Sunday.

If it's truely only a 3rd round pick, you make this deal.

I would pay good money to listen that conversation.

Packer People

Guy would be pure gold in front of the microphone.

After watching that Youtube, they MUST sign Lynch and give him Colledge's old interview show to host.

Interesting back story on this...

Silver Discusses a Lynch Trade

BUF turned down a third-rounder and a player before the draft? Since they drafted Spiller they won't even listen to other offers for a third-string RB? No wonder that franchise is in the crapper.

Fine, let's trade them Brian Brohm, Jamon Meridith and a third round pick. Does that get it done?

I wonder if Hawk could be included in any deal?

Didn't want him before the draft, but that's different now, since the back they did draft is still injured.

Poszluzny is injured again. What about Hawk and a 5th? 3rd is kind of steep, but a 4th/conditional 3rd would be OK.

Good answer AR... for some teams there are rules against tampering.

That he is a very average back?

Injuries and suspensions don't really count though.

I hope TT doesn't sign that punk.

If such a trade happens I think it would happen after this weekend game.
At least this weekend will give both sides a good chance to talk a trade over face to face.

Since this romour seems to come from a Bufflo fan site and is not from Joe, I say it is nothing but BS.

Are you like 4 years old or what?

Cheap yes but TT will just never overpay (5th at best) for this guy and may not take him regardless due to his turdish rep.

BJack!

Of course you did.

I look at the similarities of the '96 Rison acquisition...a player that played a significant role in winning the Super Bowl. I don't think RB is as important as it once was in the NFL. But getting a guy of this talent would be a nice upgrade. Meanwhile, there is plenty of vet leadership, starting with his Cal teamate in Rodgers. Guys like Woodson, Tauscher, Driver....these guys can keep this guy in line. And he's playing for a payday in 2012.

Hawk and a pick!

If a trade were to be made, I'd much prefer a player-for-player swap, or just a draft p[ick only and not a player and a draft pick. That's way too much to give up IMHO.

If we're really talking about trading Hawk for Lynch, I don't think we throw in a pick.

[edit] Beat me by a minute!

That's what I've been telling Bills fans over on one of their message boards. Some of them want a 1st round pick for the guy, or Bulaga (because after all, he didn't win the starting job in camp, so he must be a bust.)

RT @joearrigo: #Packers & #Bills deal has hit a road block. Bills want CB Pat Lee & OLB Brad Jones 4 Lynch, TT not willing to pay that price



Joe has spoken.

If this is true there will never be a trade.

Sorry, but a 3rd string RB with an injury history is not worth ANY of our starters.

Yup CJS, this rumor sounds like a Bills fans dream (wet).

When your first two backs are CJ Spiller and Fred Jackson.. and our #1 back is Brandon Jackson.. your logic doesn't really follow in this case.

Lynch is a capable player and has been much more successful in the NFL than BJax. Im not saying the guy is a world beater, but he is very likely a clear upgrade over Nance/Kuhn at TB. When you are a superbowl team and you lose a guy like Ryan Grant and you have no capable backup that can carry a fulltime load at TB... you need to make a move to fix the issue.

What happens if Jackson gets hurt? This needs to be addressed.

My logic is this:
1. The Packers are a pass-first team.
2. At the RB position, we need someone solid who can pick up the blitz, get whatever yards are there and not turn the ball over.
3. Due to item #2, we don't need to create another hole in the starting line-up to fill a position with someone who is unproven in our system.
4. Especially if that player has a LONG history of off the field issues and injuries.
5. I'm on record as being in favor of trading for Lynch, even though he's a card-carrying douchebag, potentially causing locker room issues, for the right price. I said yesterday for a 4th or lower, but I'd consider it for a 3rd if we got a later pick back like the Pats did.

I'm on the record of being in favor of keeping your best players to be good. They get to be good because someone sits them down and talks to them so they understand how to be professionals. It's all in the want-to and the discipline.

Lynch has had a more successful career up to this point.

Their YPC averages are nearly identical, however.

We do have a capable backup who is now a starter. His name is Brandon Jackson.

If Jackson also gets hurt, you go get another back.

The issue has been addressed for the time being with the signing of Nance (potential impact unk at this time). We have Starks potentially returning after week 6, and at least a month to evaluate how comfortable we are with Jackson as the starter.

I find it comical that you're calling us a Super Bowl team when you still have that stupid avatar calling for Thompson to get fired.

Your clear bias against him and the job he does severely undercuts your credibility.

You and the other nervous nellies in Packer Nation will just have to keep pissing down your legs at least a little bit longer. Too bad for you.

This really is the crux of the issue. TT and MM clearly have a vastly different view of the abilities of BJack than you do. I don't anticipate a move until either he demonstrates he can't get it done or there's another injury.

There's no need to push the panic button and people need to take a deep breath and just relax.
