Tramon Williams is an ageless wonder. The longevity he has displayed over 10 years with the Green Bay Packers and 13 years overall is nothing short of amazing, especially for a defensive back. On top of that, he still shows a remarkable level of energy and athleticism for a 37-year-old NFL player. So, where does Tramon rank among both all-time defensive backs and all-time Packers? Let’s look at the stats: Williams, a Packer Fan Favorite, went undrafted in 2006 out of Louisiana Tech. Even so, he played in all 16 games for the Green Bay Packers as a rookie and…

The Packers didn’t make any big splashes in the offseason and chose not to sign big name free agents like many expected. After a spending spree on defense before the 2019 season, the team couldn’t afford to do the same again this year. However, they did sign some under the radar free agents like Christian Kirksey and Devin Funchess. Training camp is set to start on July 28th, and there are still some players available who could prove helpful in a title run. Damon Harrison The Packers’ biggest issue in 2019 was arguably defending the run. Ultimately, San Francisco ran…

The fastball is the most-thrown pitch at any level of baseball, hands down. Whether a four-seam or two, the old #1 is often the go-to pitch in critical situations. A four-seamer is the straight heat. The two-seam fastball will sacrifice velocity for movement proportional to the arm with which it’s thrown (a right-hander’s two-seamer will move to the right). Let’s take a closer look at this classic pitch and you decide which Brewer’s pitcher has the best fastball. Each year more major league teams boast of pitchers who regularly hit triple digits on the radar gun. For instance, in September…

The Packers drafted Equanimeous (EQ) St. Brown in the sixth round of the 2018 NFL draft. St. Brown comes in at 6-foot-5 and started seven out of 12 games his rookie season. Many expected the talented wideout to take a leap in 2019, but was placed on IR before the start of the season. In his rookie season, he had 21 catches for 328 total yards, including some clutch plays for the Pack. In addition, as a young wide out, he gained the trust of Aaron Rodgers and started to shine toward the end of the season. He has all…

Over the past few weeks, Jamal Adams has clearly voiced that he no longer wants to be a part of the New York Jets organization. He said that it may be time to move on in an Instagram post. However, he still has two years left on his contract and can be tagged for a third. Adams is seeking a long-term deal prior to the season. But, some sources have said that there are some teams that Adams wouldn’t immediately seek a long term deal with. People can presume that these teams would have to be teams where he can…

PFF (Pro Football Focus) released its college grades for this year’s rookie running backs and two of the names might seem familiar for Wisconsinites. Tied for first at 91.3 is Packers draft pick, former Boston College running back AJ Dillon. Solely in third, with a grade of 91.1, is former Wisconsin back and current Wisconsin Badger legend Jonathan Taylor. Drafted on opposite ends of the second round, both highly touted backs have a chance to make a real impact this year. Taylor beside Mack: Jonathan Taylor, well known as a skilled college running back, was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts…

The last two nights, it was refreshing to see an actual baseball event for the first time since spring training was halted because of the global pandemic. With that being said, the Milwaukee Brewers knocked it out of the park no pun intended, in the first round. With the 20th overall pick the Milwaukee Brewers picked Garrett Mitchell, outfielder from UCLA and professional tik-tok dancer. Mitchell was the 6th overall prospect in the whole draft. I couldn’t believe this guy dropped all the way to 20th overall. Mitchell stands 6’3 and weighs in at about 215 pounds. Mitchell broke out…

The 2020 MLB First Year Player Draft was unique. For the first time in the draft’s 56 year history it didn’t take place during the regular season. And it was short. The MLB draft typically consists of 40 rounds. MLB decided to condense the 2020 and 2021 drafts to 5 and 20 rounds respectfully due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Although teams are limited on how many players they can draft, MLB is allowing “unlimited” undrafted free agents signings. The MLB Draft wrapped up Thursday night, but there will certainly be more players signed in the coming days and weeks. Until…

Comments have come out suggesting Aaron Rodgers is part of the problem preventing the Green Bay Packers from reaching their peak. These statements are sure to infuriate any Packers fan predicting a Lombardi this season, yet they are worth further examination. First, let’s look at Rodgers’ numbers over the last few seasons. The last three full seasons Aaron Rodgers has played have seen a decline in completion percentage, pass attempts, and Quarterback Rating. These declines continued through the transition from McCarthy to LaFleur, despite the move to a heavier RPO scheme intended to get the ball in the hands of…
