A big, powerful defensive tackle has been a key fixture on the Packers' Super Bowl teams over the past decade. Whether it was Gilbert Brown in the mid-1990s or B.J. Raji in 2010, those defenses shared that similarity. Both of those tackles find themselves discussed in today's Cheese Curds, one looking forward to the 2015 season while the other reminisces about his playing days in Green Bay.
Brown is along for the ride on the Packers' Tailgate Tour, which also features numerous current Packers who are discussing the plans for 2015. In addition, the Packers released details on the Pro Shop's annual Tent Sale, so get moving on that ASAP.
