Especially at LT
There are always veterans available. TT just doesn't sign them.
I've been looking, but I can't find any updates on the O-line injuries. Anyone have any info?

They're all dead.....services forthcoming...
No updates until tomorrow, since they aren't required to provide anything until Wed.
Grave Digger posted:Thanks PBoi, that's about what I expected for the Arizona game. Barclay was out of his element in the worst possible way. After Calais Campbell had sack 2 or 3, the Packers needed to get the ball out faster. That's what the Cardinals did when Palmer had been sacked for the second time. They were getting it out lightning fast. Can't wait for routes to develop when you only have 2 seconds to throw it.
Out of his element by playing the position he was kept on the roster to play.
Great take.
Look, nobody is expecting him to perform as well as the starter but we do expect a certain level of competency in his craft. Since preseason many of us have been saying he isn't reaching that level and isn't the answer.
Unfortunately for you, your opinion means diddly at 1265.
Ran across this when looking for other Packer left tackle information
http://espn.go.com/blog/green-...t-tackle-for-packers
and now am really trying to figure out why Barclay was starting at left tackle? Did the wear-and-tear on Bulaga since August keep the Packers from even trying it?
W/ Bakhtiari out the move of Bulaga to LT would mean 2 position moves. Putting Barclay at LT was probably looked at as the least disruptive. Of course, Barclay at LT was very disruptive.
I hope Lacy, Starks, Kuhn, Crockett, Ripkowski combine for about 50 carries Sunday night, and about 6 more touches on screens.
Bulaga at LT has left knee injury written all over it.
Anyone else at LT has Rodgers full body injury written all over it.

Please explain how we're supposed to stockpile 15 All-Pro O-Linemen in the event all 5 of our starters go down?
Jees...Boss. Was that a trick question?
They should try Davante Adams at LT. He'd probably be one of the top 10 fastest left tackles in the NFL and would never get penalties because he can't hold onto anything.
One thing for sure is that Barclay is much better at RT than at LT. If Bak can't go either Bulaga to Ttetter at LT may be better than Barclay there.
Key word there is may. Neither Bulaga or Tretter have really been tested at LT and both are unknowns at the position.
Bulaga has played LT in the past.
Tretter plays all 5 positions.
Either are a better option than Barclay at LT

Agreed, but Barclay is a known at LT......bad.
