Let\'s see if he is still a Packer by the trade deadline.

The trading deadline is Oct 19, which might be just the right time for them to trade... since we\'re an NFC team. Oct 19 is the beginning of the stretch of AFC games on our schedule.

10/17 Minnesota 7:30 PM CT
-- 10/19 TRADE DEADLINE --
10/24 at Oakland 3:15 PM CT
11/07 at San Diego 3:05 PM CT
11/14 Kansas City 12:00 PM CT
11/21 Denver 12:00 PM CT

I was wondering all along if that factored into their plans. They probably see no reason to make us a better team until we\'re playing non-conference games.

Not sure if they did factor that into their plans, but is Dallas still looking to add McKenzie as well.
they play GB on 10/24. So that would deminish their chance... one would think.

It\'ll probably come down to whoever is more competive around trade time (which I feel most certainly won\'t be us).

Prediction....

If the cowboys are looking good come Oct 19th, then they won\'t trade, to anyone. If the Cowboys are way below the Packers come Oct 19th, then they\'ll trade to the worse of the two teams -- us.

Someone needs to let this one go. The fact that the Packers did not give into McKenzie\'s demands and forced him back tell\'s me alot. Maybe they are going to force him to play out his contract for exactly what he is worth. The Packer\'s obviously did\'nt by into the hype that McKenzie was cookin.

yeah I agree there were talks but none in awhile now. He is back and with the pack and if GB is making a playoff/SB run I don\'t see them even considering such trade. GB is looking good.

After the whipping the Pack put on the Panthers either they are running towards the Superbowl or the Panthers are running away from it and remember they had David and Smith, no excuses!!

The Packers are looking good, yes they put a whipping on -- but they did it without McKenzie. He was still holding out at that point. And they just shelled out big bucks for his replacement.

I love Ambrose to death... but he\'s just too old, and opposing teams will continue to take advantage of that. So if there\'s any chance of upgrading that position at all, however slim, however late, then I\'m interested.

I\'m all for the upgrade, but the leverage for the Packers is gone, I mean to trade McKenzie to another team unless that other team really want\'s to spend the first round draft choice.

From what I saw of the Seattle game adding McKenzie is the least of our worries.

How about a WR that can catch?
How about an O-line that can block?
How about TE\'s thats can block AND catch?
How about an O-coordinator with more imagination than a HS coach?
How about a freakin gameplan?
How about adjustments whan things don\'t work?
How about a coach who can fire up a team?
How about a QB gettin in somebody\'s face?
How about using your bruising FB successfully for more than ONE series?
How about a franchise DE that actually plays?

Adding McKenzie is the equivalent of spitting on a fire.
