The offseason chaos is in full swing, and Pack Daddy is here to sort through all of it.

Pac Nation picked up the phones and packed the lines on this one. From a wild developmental B-team league concept to a Bears conspiracy theory for the ages, the After Dark crew had a lot to say about the Packers' offseason — and Ryan wasn't holding back either. A Ron from Eau Claire floats the idea of NFL teams fielding a spring practice squad league, and Ryan actually loves it — at least as a thought experiment. Same helmets, same loyalty, real development. The logistics are a nightmare, but the dream is beautiful. Beer Cheese Benny makes the case for drafting a running back while Ryan pumps the brakes — Judarian Price is the only realistic option in range, and if he's gone, the math just doesn't work. TJ from Alabama delivers a measured free agency report card: Hargrave and Franklin solid, Jonathan Gannon warmer than expected, and a definitive verdict on why LaGeria Sneed isn't the answer at corner. Randy from Minnesota drops the conspiracy of the year — is Ryan Poles secretly on the Packers' payroll? — and gives Big Sal his flowers for the Ben Johnson rant. Garrett from China, IL closes it out asking the real questions: backup QB, nose tackle depth, and whether Sky Moore is just a special teams signing dressed up as a wide receiver. Call in, Pac Nation.

Big Sal from Peshtigo is back — fresh off three days with no heat, no lights, and thirty inches of snow piled up to his chest. Gary Pletcher didn't see the storm coming. Neither did Pack Nation. And Sal's not here to make you feel better about it. From Week 13's 9-3-1 high — Tomek catching Super Bowl fever and Sal's daughter calling them pioneers — to Micah Parsons going down in Denver, five straight losses, and a Wild Card collapse against the Bears that cost Sal a full night of sleep Every coaching question on the table: LaFleur's 3-6 playoff record, the Hafley departure, Jonathan Gannon stepping into the DC seat, and Cameron Achord running special teams for the first time at the NFL level Gutey, Stenavich, Butkus, and the four punts in Chicago that nobody has answered for yet The Gary Pletcher lesson: the snow didn't ask if you were ready — so you don't get to ask it either.

Beer Cheese Benny calls in with a full multi-round mock draft for the Green Bay Packers, and Ryan breaks down every pick with PFF grades, RAS scores, and tape analysis. From a blazing fast running back out of Arkansas to a nose tackle who dominated SEC competition, Benny came prepared — and the results are more intriguing than you'd expect. Mike Washington Jr. (RB, Arkansas) — Elite RAS, 433 speed at 612/230, massive size-speed combo that fits exactly what Gutekunst looks for in a backfield piece Caleb Proctor (DT, SE Louisiana) — The small school debate is real, but his PFF grades, RAS, and tape are all elite; draws Micah Parsons comparisons in how he sheds blocks Chianti Scott (CB, Miami) — Transfer breakout with a 90 PFF grade in 2025, but age concerns and slot/safety versatility questions keep the conversation interesting Trey Zuhn III (OT, Texas A&M) — 97 pass blocking grade is almost unheard of; the center experiment is noted, though results were mixed Nick Barrett (DT, South Carolina) — True nose tackle who graded his best against Alabama, Kentucky, and Texas A&M — he rises to the moment against top competition Call in your own mock draft or prospect takes at 608-561-3243 — Ryan will add your calls directly to the scouting reports on the big board.

Big Sal from Peshtigo has questions. Serious questions. One week ago the Packers were the youngest team in the entire NFL — the whole LEAGUE — and every analyst on the planet said they needed veterans. Fine. So Gute goes out and signs a 28-year-old, a 29-year-old, and a 33-year-old in the same offseason. Sal's not mad at the players. He's mad at the whiplash. Javon Hargrave, Zaire Franklin, and Benjamin St-Juste are quality football players — Sal wants that on the record before he loses his mind The real panic: is Green Bay pivoting from a five-year rebuild to a win-now window without telling anyone? Tomek's gym membership, Gary's brother-in-law Denny's restaurant-car wash disaster, and a door-county road trip without GPS all make appearances Sal's daughter asked if the Hargrave signing was good. He sat in silence for four full seconds. She walked out. She has more peace than he does. If Gute's right and this works, Big Sal will eat every word with a fork and a napkin. But somebody better hand him a north star before November.

Ed Policy is sounding the alarm — and Pac Nation needs to understand why. The Green Bay Packers' president and CEO sat down with the Sports Business Journal to lay out a sobering reality: the NFL's explosive growth is creating a financial arms race that the league's only nonprofit franchise is uniquely ill-equipped to fight. Ryan breaks it all down and tells you why the lazy "just follow the money" takes online are completely missing the point. The scale problem nobody understands: While the Packers' $600M reserve fund sounds massive, a $10 billion NFL franchise can sell 10% equity and raise a billion dollars overnight — roughly 15x what Green Bay's entire public share sale generated It's not about coaches — it's about districts: The real threat isn't billionaire owners overpaying staff; it's SoFi Stadium's Hollywood Park development (3,000 residential units, $10B in surrounding real estate) versus Title Town's much smaller footprint Policy's three-part revenue plan: More off-season Lambeau events, expanded sponsorship/naming rights, and continued ticket price adjustments — and Ryan explains why this is transparency, not a cash grab Why shared NFL revenue may be the great equalizer: With league TV and betting revenue exploding and getting split equally, Ryan makes the case that this situation may not be as dire as the headlines suggest Subscribe, leave a five-star review, and let's keep Pac Nation growing.

Really? Almost a month between episodes? No wonder the listening audience has been getting restless! But we're back with another edition. Free agency and trades being made in the NFL...are either the Packers or Bears better afterwards? Tournament time in college hoops! Badgers draw a 5-seed. Marquette is done and needs some offseason work. Some bracket examination. Quick notes on the dismal Bucks plus NBA expansion. Brewers continue spring training around the World Baseball Classic. Less than two weeks until Opening Day. And we're done with the high school basketball season locally....not a great year as a whole. All that and more coming on this almost 90-minute episode! Tell your friends.
Happy St. Paddy's Day!!! Enjoy some corned beef or Shepherd's pie…have a beer or two. Just be safe out there! On the show this morning, a bunch of St. Paddy's Day stuff, including a list of the best cities to celebrate the holiday, and a rundown of some deals & freebies you can take advantage of today. Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports Show joined us just after 8am to talk about the World Baseball Classic and the possibility of the Packers selling the naming rights to Lambeau Field. We also spoke to Brandon Leum of "Building a Refuge" about their upcoming event at the Radisson Hotel in La Crosse before this Saturday night's Hairball show at the Omni Center. In the news this morning, a recall on meatloaf from Costco, the Utah "Black Widow" is found guilty of poisoning her husband, a retired Air Force General goes missing, and the Oscars missed a bunch of dead celebrities during their "In Memoriam" segment…as usual. In sports, the Bucks take on the Cavs tonight, and the NCAA First Four also kicks off tonight on TruTV! We let you know what's on TV today/tonight and what's new on DVD for New Release Tuesday. A bus driver in Georgia is being credited with saving a family from a house fire, and check out this kid who was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer using his "Make-A-Wish" to help other people in his community. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a woman from MN who threw a tarantula at a tenant living in her basement, a #FloridaMan who tried twice to steal a septic tank from a construction site, a dude in Pennsylvania who's in trouble for feeding his pet parakeet beer & marijuana, and a Cheetozard sold for over $84,000!!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For years, the Packers avoided older free agents — but this offseason feels… different.Aaron Nagler welcomes in CHTV contributor Mark Oldacres (with apologies for his Wi-Fi) to discuss his latest piece breaking down Green Bay's evolving approach to roster building and why the recent additions of more experienced veterans could signal a philosophical shift. Brian Gutekunst has long prioritized youth, development, and patience — but now, with a playoff-ready roster, the Packers may finally be leaning into proven, win-now talent.You can find Mark's piece right here: https://cheeseheadtv.com/blog/veteran-signings-show-packers-shift-in-urgency-100

Big Sal is up at six-thirty in the morning, coffee on the floor, and Ed Policy just said the quiet part out loud: without the salary cap, there might not BE a Green Bay Packers.

Policy admits the Packers are top three in league demand but middle of the pack in revenue — and the gap between Green Bay's reserve fund and what a billionaire owner can deploy in one afternoon is getting dangerous The salary cap levels the playing field for players — but coaching staffs, analytics departments, practice facilities, and signing bonus cash? Not capped. That's where the big market teams are burying us Lambeau is the last stadium in the NFL without naming rights — and while Sal's drawing a hard line on that name, he understands the financial reality of what comes next This isn't some rich owner's accounting problem.

Aaron chats with Packers fans worldwide about the critical eye that will be trained on the team's offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich in 2026.
Big Sal is fired up — and this time it's not about the front office, the cap sheet, or some rival fan base running their mouth. It's about the most unglamorous, most essential, most criminally overlooked position in all of football: the nose tackle. And if Green Bay doesn't fix it in Pittsburgh, Jonathan Gannon's whole system is dead on arrival. Sal breaks down why Gannon's pressure-generation scheme collapses without a run-stuffing anchor — if offenses can just hand it off all day, the pass rush never gets off the ground The Bobby Ferrante Principle: how one massive presence changes the entire offensive calculation before a single snap is called The 2026 nose tackle draft board — Kayden McDonald, Lee Hunter, Chris McClellan, DeMonte Capehart, and Domonique Orange — who falls to 52, who disappears, and who Green Bay must not overthink Sal's daughter drops the most accidental football wisdom of the offseason, and Darlene just shakes her head Subscribe, drop a comment, and tell Big Sal which nose tackle you want the Packers to take.

The Chicago Bears are in serious trouble — and it goes way deeper than just being tight on cap space. Ryan breaks down exactly how bad the situation really is after Adam Schefter shut down Max Crosby to Chicago speculation, calling any hope of freeing up cap room "a fantasy." Turns out, the Bears have just $2 million in cap space and a roster full of overpriced, underperforming players locking them into a financial nightmare for years to come. Cap autopsy: Deon'tae O'Damba at $21M, Jalen Johnson at $25M, Grady Jarrett at $19M, Jonah Jackson at $19.5M — Ryan goes contract by contract exposing the bloat and why almost none of it can be restructured without making things worse The cash question: Is this purely a cap problem, or are the Bears also cash-strapped from stadium spending and land purchases? Ryan explores the growing speculation that the McCaskeys simply don't have the liquidity to make big moves The verdict on Ryan Polls: With $100M in cap space over multiple years, the Bears GM produced almost no elite players on manageable deals — a damning indictment compared to where Green Bay sits today Subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and tell Pac Nation you sent them — it makes a huge difference for the show! #GreenBayPackers #ChicagoBears #NFLCapSpace #NFLFreeAgency #MaxCrosby #NFLDraft #PackernetPodcast #PacNation This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Former NFL Lineman Geoff Schwartz joins the show to tell the story of how his wedding day landed on the same day as legal tampering. How he was with his groomsmen, readying to walk the aisle while making the decision to join the NY Giants. Then Geoff gives his thoughts on why having a star center and star tight end is the latest chapter in the continuing evolution of professional football. He says it's in response to the plethora of incredible pass rushers. He adds that all the talk about how hard it is on the players to move is ridiculous. You're rich. You're fine. Then Director Bryan Bishop stops by to chat the Academy Awards. His documentary, Growth, is a must watch. He says One Battle After Another is a lock, and thinks that the drop off of Hamnet is for the best. As Vince Lombardi once said, "It ain't bragging if you done it."

Pack Nation called in HOT on this one. Ryan takes the lines from Dakota in Tennessee and Kyle from Madison as the crew breaks down one of the messiest offseason storylines in recent memory — the Ravens' Max Crosby fiasco. Baltimore backed out of that trade, swooped in on Trey Hendrickson while he was still with Cincinnati, and now everybody in the league is giving them the side-eye. Ryan makes the case that cutthroat is fine — until it costs you your reputation. Ravens drama unpacked: The Crosby-Hendrickson situation was slimy business, full stop — and now Baltimore is on damage control that nobody believes Packers cap space confusion: Kyle from Madison drops the question everyone's asking — why does Green Bay have $30 million sitting around after a round of aggressive restructures, and what's the target? CB room gets an upgrade: Benjamin St-Juste arrives, Skyy Moore solves the kick return problem Keyshawn Nixon didn't want, and the cornerback room finally has some breathing room AI hot takes at midnight: ChatGPT is slipping, Grok's improving, Gemini surprised everyone, and Claude keeps quietly winning — Ryan gives his full breakdown Subscribe, leave a five-star review, and call in live at 608-501-0718.

The offseason drama is heating up in Green Bay — and Ryan is here to break it all down for Pac Nation. From a blockbuster trade request out of Arizona to some eyebrow-raising social media activity surrounding Rashaan Gary's exit, this episode covers the stories that actually matter heading into 2026. Josh Sweat trade buzz: The Cardinals edge rusher has requested a trade, and the Packers are reportedly interested. Ryan digs deep into the numbers — Sweat's three best pass rush grades all came under Jonathan Gannon, his win rate and pass rush productivity mirror Lucas Van Ness almost exactly, and his 12 sacks on just 355 attempts in 2025 are flat-out remarkable. The price tag is the question. Kyler Murray to Minnesota: The one-year deal with the Vikings is real, but Ryan isn't losing sleep over it. No GM, no cohesive core, no long-term identity — this isn't a team, it's a rental. The Vikings are in cleanup mode, not contention mode. Rashaan Gary's exit gets messier: A closer look at Terrence Parsons' social media tells a story — charts, retweets, and pointed commentary all pointing toward effort and attitude issues in Gary's final Green Bay season. Ryan calls it like he sees it. Around the NFC North: Emmanuel Wilson lands in Seattle, Jonathan Allen heads to Cincinnati, and Detroit loses Alka'Din Muhammad to Tampa while adding a safety.

Big Sal from Peshtigo is at the kitchen table, and he has had ENOUGH. Brian Gutekunst traded away first-round picks of his own free will — nobody held a gun to his head — and now the man wants patience while Pack Nation sits here staring at a draft board that looks like the leftovers at a church potluck. Cold. Dry. Nothing anybody actually wanted. Sal breaks down exactly why Gute gets zero curve — when you voluntarily remove yourself from the top of the board, every remaining pick has to work twice as hard, hit faster, and contribute in year ONE The Gary Pletcher snow removal analogy that perfectly captures what happens when you sell your best equipment and then the storm hits Credit where it's due: Jordan Love, the offensive line rebuild, some solid contracts — but good GMs are good EVERY year, not every other year The urgency is real — Love's cheap contract window is open RIGHT NOW, and thin rosters and third-year projects are exactly what slam it shut No more outs. No more context. No more explanations. Go find us some players, Brian. RESULTS. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell a friend about Packernet.
