Chase Claypool made a surprise appearance during rookie minicamp. Whether he signs with the team or not, he won't be the last vet the Packers will consider adding. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about Claypool's tryout and other moves Green Bay could make. www.theleap.football/p/chase-clay...

The Packers selected six players in the 2026 NFL Draft. Some picks have an easier path to the field than others, and draft order doesn't necessarily determine the difficulty. For @theleap.bsky.social: Ranking Green Bay's draft class by Year 1 impact potential www.theleap.football/p/2026-nfl-d...

The Packers will reportedly sign former Virginia Tech QB Kyron Drones. Drones made this year's edition of @theleap.bsky.social's Hunting for Hasselbecks. You can read about his fit in Green Bay here 👇 www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

The Packers added some real juice to their pass rush with Dani Dennis-Sutton. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about his fit in Green Bay. www.theleap.football/p/after-addr...

By drafting Brandon Cisse and Chris McClellan, the Packers addressed their biggest positions of need. With that business completed, the team can get a little weird on Day 3. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about how Green Bay could close out the 2026 draft. www.theleap.football/p/after-addr...

The Packers secured Jayden Reed's services for the long haul. What does it mean for the team in the draft and during the upcoming season? For @theleap.bsky.social: The downstream effects of Reed's extension www.theleap.football/p/the-downst...

A trio of consensus top-32 prospects at key positions for the Packers remains available entering Friday. They might need to maneuver to land one, however. For @theleap.bsky.social: The board held up well, but Green Bay might have to take action to capitalize. www.theleap.football/p/2026-nfl-d...

From a Packers' perspective, the board should look pretty strong heading into Day 2. A lot of Packers-y prospects at positions of need remain available: • Brandon Cisse • Colton Hood • Jermod McCoy • Kayden McDonald • Christen Miller And that's hardly an exhaustive list.

You can read about Kyron Drones and the other QBs who could be late-round picks for the Packers here: www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

The 2026 edition of Hunting for Hasselbecks has another QB! Kyron Drones, who was not invited to the combine, didn't originally qualify. But after his reported pre-draft visit to Green Bay (per @billhubernfl.bsky.social), Drones now meets the requirements under the Sean Clifford exception.

In just a few minutes, I'm jumping on ESPN La Crosse to talk about the Packers and the 2026 NFL Draft. Listen in here 👇 www.espnlacrosse.com

The Dexter Lawrence trade sent shockwaves through the NFL. It also reinforced the perception that the league doesn't love the top of the 2026 draft class. For @theleap.bsky.social: The NFL is telling you how it perceives the top of the 2026 draft. www.theleap.football/p/the-nfl-is...

Check out the full article here 👇 www.theleap.football/p/fine-lets-...

There were many reasons a Dexter Lawrence trade didn't really make sense for the Packers, and I wrote about them earlier this week for @theleap.bsky.social. Here's one of the key issues that many people glossed over:

A Dexter Lawrence trade appears increasingly likely. That doesn't mean a move for the All-Pro defensive tackle looks any more practicable for the Packers, however. For @theleap.bsky.social: Let's have the Dexter Lawrence conversation. www.theleap.football/p/fine-lets-...

In terms of the QBs, @theleap.bsky.social has written extensively about which prospects could land in Green Bay in our annual Hunting for Hasselbecks series 👇 www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

A former Packers exec said they "never should have let Micah Hyde out the door." Who might make the team feel similar regret after leaving Green Bay? I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about who the Packers could eventually talk about in the same terms as Hyde. www.theleap.football/p/will-the-p...

That list did not include Behren Morton, who hadn't yet completed enough testing for an athletic profile. He has now done so and just had a pre-draft visit to Green Bay, per @tspoon62.bsky.social. Morton now qualifies for Hunting for Hasselbecks. (2/2) www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

The initial 2026 edition of Hunting for Hasselbecks featured 10 QBs who, based on the Packers' historical trends, could be late-round picks for the team. All 10 attended the combine, one of the key indicators for Green Bay. (1/2)

The Packers want to extend Tucker Kraft, Christian Watson, and others, but they aren't the only team facing decisions on players in contract years. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about the contract-year players on other teams who could interest Green Bay. www.theleap.football/p/who-are-th...

The NFL holds an owners meeting every spring. Some parts of the event hold more importance than others. For @theleap.bsky.social: Which developments from this week's owners meeting actually matter to the Packers? www.theleap.football/p/which-deve...

Jordan Love will have a new backup this year, and the Packers' GM has made no secret of his plan to regularly use late-round picks on QBs as Ron Wolf once did. Today's edition of @theleap.bsky.social looks at the QBs Green Bay could target in the 2026 draft. www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

For many years, the Packers would regularly take QBs late in the draft, uncovering gems like Matt Hasselbeck and flipping them in trades. Today's edition of @theleap.bsky.social dives into the team's history with late-round QBs and why it matters in 2026. www.theleap.football/p/hunting-fo...

The Dolphins hollowed out their receiving corps on Tuesday by trading Jaylen Waddle. If they desire a veteran to replenish the unit, the Packers would make a natural trade partner. For @theleap.bsky.social: Will Miami go back to the Green Bay well? www.theleap.football/p/will-the-d...

The first wave of free agency is over and the #Packers lost a slew of starters and key role players, but added at need positions as well. So what's the plan for the departing players? And what's left to do? It's a free @theleap.bsky.social Monday. www.theleap.football/p/how-did-fr...

Yosh Nijman announced his retirement from the NFL. He went from a Packers UDFA to a part-time starter who lasted seven years in the league. Here's an article I wrote about him back in 2022, the season in which he made a career high 13 starts: www.theleap.football/p/david-bakh...

Was lucky to get to have a couple one-on-one conversations with Romeo Doubs over the years and I always came away feeling like there was so much more to him than he was letting us see in front of the cameras, in a good way. Hope we get to see more of his personality come out.

Romeo Doubs' deal with the Patriots falls somewhere between $17.5 million and $20 million annually. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about Doubs and what else is to come for the Packers during the legal-tampering period and beyond.

The Packers made some significant moves over the past few days. However, those pale in comparison to what might come next. For @theleap.bsky.social: How Day 1 of legal tampering went down and where Green Bay goes from here www.theleap.football/p/how-day-1-...

The Packers' decision to trade Colby Wooden for Zaire Franklin sets the table for the rest of the team's offseason. For @theleap.bsky.social: Green Bay's offseason plan comes into focus. www.theleap.football/p/packers-of...

With Emanuel Wilson set to hit free agency, the Packers will likely need a new No. 2 running back. That player might already reside on their roster. For @theleap.bsky.social: Green Bay might already have Josh Jacobs' backup (and it might not be MarShawn Lloyd). www.theleap.football/p/josh-jacob...

The Packers' free agents could potentially generate premium comp picks for the team, and combine week has only amplified expectations. For @theleap.bsky.social: Let's talk about the comp picks Green Bay could get, and why they might not fall where fans expect. www.theleap.football/p/lets-talk-...

The Colts have given Anthony Richardson permission to seek a trade, per ESPN's Stephen Holder. I wrote about Richardson earlier this week and why I don't see him as a Packers reclamation project. www.theleap.football/p/packers-nf...

The combine begins later this week, and the Packers have much more on their to-do list than just scouting the corners and defensive linemen. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about one of Green Bay's offseason priorities that hasn't garnered enough attention. www.theleap.football/p/packers-nf...

Our story on the big Rich Bisaccia news for anyone who missed it last night:

After four seasons in Green Bay, Rich Bisaccia has stepped down. His exit raises several questions, and not merely about who will replace him as special-teams coordinator. For @theleap.bsky.social: The Bisaccia era is over. What's next for the Packers? www.theleap.football/p/the-rich-b...

The Packers replaced departing QBs coach Sean Mannion with an in-house promotion. That decision comes with pros and cons. For @theleap.bsky.social: What Luke Getsy's ascension to QBs coach means (and what it doesn't) www.theleap.football/p/what-luke-...

With Super Bowl LX now in the rearview mirror, the entire NFL has turned its attention to the offseason. Already, some significant developments appear to be underway for the Packers. I wrote about them for @theleap.bsky.social. www.theleap.football/p/the-offsea...

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst tackled myriad subjects during his season-closing presser. However, he probably revealed more with what he didn't say than what he did. I wrote about it for @theleap.bsky.social. www.theleap.football/p/what-brian...

To clarify on some reporting that’s out there, the #Packers did not fire WRs coach Ryan Mahaffey, a source told @theleap.bsky.social Sean Mannion wanted to bring Mahaffey to Philly and Green Bay allowed him to leave. The team could have blocked the promotion but didn’t.

The Packers have hired a new DC, tabbing former Arizona head coach Jonathan Gannon to run their defense. The decision raises questions, and not only those about his past job performance. For @theleap.bsky.social: Unpacking the hire of Gannon as Green Bay DC www.theleap.football/p/unpacking-...

The Packers and Broncos defensive pass-game coordinator Jim Leonhard have "mutual interest," according to @rapsheet.bsky.social. This echoes @theleap.bsky.social's reporting from earlier this week about Leonhard's candidacy for Green Bay's open DC position. www.theleap.football/p/replacing-...

Jeff Hafley (along with recent national reports) pointed directly toward a coach like Sean Duggan being his DC in Miami. @byjbh.bsky.social reported the Duggan bit more than a month ago for @theleap.bsky.social www.theleap.football/p/what-were-...

Christian Parker has reportedly landed the Cowboys' DC job, but the Packers still have plenty of candidates to consider as they search for Jeff Hafley's successor. I wrote about Green Bay's DC search for @theleap.bsky.social 👇

After a successful two-year stint in Green Bay, Jeff Hafley has taken his talents to South Beach. Now, the Packers must identify his successor. For @theleap.bsky.social: What we've heard about the Packers DC search and which coaches have a path to the job www.theleap.football/p/replacing-...

The Packers lost Jeff Hafley to the Dolphins on Monday. His exit won't be the only change to the coaching staff this offseason. I wrote for @theleap.bsky.social about who could follow Hafley to Miami and what comes next for Green Bay. www.theleap.football/p/jeff-hafle...

With the Green Bay's 2025 season in the rearview mirror, how did the team's most recent draft picks stack up to their preseason expectations? For @theleap.bsky.social: Reviewing the Packers' 2025 draft class in Year 1 www.theleap.football/p/reviewing-...

A lot of people are learning about Nathan Scheelhaase for the first time this month, but readers of @theleap.bsky.social have had him on their radar for a while. www.theleap.football/p/a-key-figu...

Packer HC Matt LaFleur mentioned multiple problems that weren't all on the players. As always, he accepted the blame for those, but that would seem to hint that staff changes are coming even if LaFleur returns. I wrote about that this morning for @theleap.bsky.social 👇

The Packers' coaching staff won't look the same next season, and that's true whether they retain Matt LaFleur or not. For @theleap.bsky.social: The LaFleur question isn't the only one hanging over Green Bay as the offseason begins. www.theleap.football/p/the-lafleu...
