Thursday Packer Hits: Graessle, FAVRE!!!, and John Clayton

Print- The biggest free agent signing this offseason was P Adam Graessle. Seriously. He's a long shot to beat out the other two punters, Jeremy Kapinos and Durant Brooks, but I don't have any faith in either of them. I hope they found something in Graessle.
- Team President Mark Murphy says the team isn't quite ready to retire Brett Favre's number if he plans on playing in Minnesota next season.
- After our respectful article about ESPN's John Clayton, m'kay, Clayton goes ahead anyway and says that he expects the Packers will rebound next season. Basically, the 2009 schedule looks a lot more favorable than the rough 2008 schedule, which should translate to at least two more wins on its own.
- Funny; agent Drew Rosenhaus is on Twitter and all the players he represents are awesome. For example, don't count out his client, QB Drew Stanton, in the Lions QB derby.
- Nice move by Miami. Last season, they trade DE Jason Taylor to Washington for a 2nd round pick, and resign him one season later. Quite the premium rental price Washington paid.
- If you have been wondering why Philadelphia didn't pull the trigger on a trade for Arizona WR Anquan Boldin, a rumor that agent Drew Rosenhaus won't let die, it turns out that he probably was never available in the first place.

I really like this Packers Hits thing Brandon. Thanks a bunch. Really makes the site worth checking out often
Frye is honestly gotta be one of the top 10 3rd Stringers in all of the NFL right now--colbyb
Anytime
there are just a bunch of links, I’m a fan of it, much less if it’s liks to leaguewide NFL news. Good work, Brandon.
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Rosenhaus' twitter is comedy gold
“Danny Ware has the ability to be a starting RB in the NFL. He’s going to take advantage of his opportunity in 09 with the Giants.”
“I worked out with Jon Beason this week. His shoulder which was operated on earlier this offseason looks great. He looks to be nearly 100%.”
Well if you say so, Drew…
Drew Rosenhaus on Twitter
Yes it is funny that the Rose is on Twitter. Interesting though in that he now seems to use twitter to break information about his players. From reporting Bolden would take less money than Fitz to Earnest Graham being healthy for full workouts. I’ve seen his twitters all over in news on the web so it must be working for him.
