    Packers Insider: Is Josh Sweat actually coming to Green Bay?

    New episode of Packers: DERAILED from The Packer Project! J.J. Lahey and Jake Schyvinck are joined by Packers Insider Easton Butler to talk through the latest on the Josh Sweat to Green Bay Packers trade rumors. Is this actually happening? What is Easton hearing? How real is the Packers’ interest? And how much does Jonathan Gannon matter in all of this? Josh Sweat has been one of the biggest names connected to Green Bay as the Packers look for another impact pass rusher. The Gannon connection makes this rumor especially interesting, since Sweat previously played under Gannon and could potentially reunite with him in Green Bay’s new defensive system. We break down the football fit, the trade cost, the Arizona Cardinals’ side of the situation, what the Packers could be thinking, and whether Brian Gutekunst should actually make the move. Topics include: Josh Sweat trade rumors Josh Sweat to the Packers Packers Insider Easton Butler joins the show What Easton is hearing about Green Bay’s interest Jonathan Gannon and Josh Sweat reunion How Sweat would fit the Packers defense Micah Parsons, Lukas Van Ness, and the Packers pass rush Arizona Cardinals trade situation Brian Gutekunst’s roster-building options Could the Packers actually pull this trade off?

Lahey and Jake Schyvinck are joined by special guest Easton Butler to break down the latest Green Bay Packers rumors and major NFL moves that could reshape the NFC. The crew digs into the Packers' reported pursuit of Arizona Cardinals pass rusher Josh Sweat, what it would cost to bring him to Green Bay, and whether reuniting him with Jonathan Gannon would give the Packers the kind of defensive front they need to compete with the best teams in the NFC. They also react to the blockbuster Rams-Browns trade sending Myles Garrett to Los Angeles in exchange for Jared Verse, a first-round pick, and more draft compensation. What does that mean for the Packers, the NFC playoff picture, and Green Bay's urgency to make its own aggressive move? Join J.J. Lahey and Jake Schyvinck as they dive into everything football—covering the Green Bay Packers, the NFL Draft, and, of course, the best of northern college football, because let’s face it – the South can cram it.

    Every Packers player ranked after the first day of 2026 OTAs

    2026 Packers Roster Tiers: Who is Enriched Uranium This Year? The 2026 Green Bay Packers roster is loaded with talent, questions, chaos, and breakout candidates, which means it is time for the DERAILED roster tiers. J.J. Lahey and "The Draft Robot" Jake Schyvinck are ranking the Packers roster before training camp, sorting players into tiers based on star power, long-term upside, reliability, volatility, developmental value, and pure roster anxiety. From Jordan Love, Josh Jacobs, Zack Tom, Micah Parsons, Xavier McKinney, Edgerrin Cooper, Tucker Kraft, Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden, and Savion Williams to the young projects and fringe roster guys fighting for a spot, this is a full Packers roster conversation through the DERAILED lens. The big question: who belongs in the elite tier, who is just solidly beige, who is a true developmental project, and who has the unstable, high-upside, potentially explosive profile worthy of being called Enriched Uranium? We break down the Packers offense, defense, rookies, veterans, roster battles, training camp storylines, and the players who could define Green Bay’s 2026 season. That includes the wide receiver room, the offensive line, the tight end situation, the defensive front, the new-look pass rush, linebacker depth, safety depth, cornerback competition, special teams, and the players who may already be running out of chances. This episode is for Packers fans who want more than generic training camp hype. It is a full roster reset with real arguments, irrational hope, appropriate panic, and the usual DERAILED nonsense.

    Josh Jacobs ARRESTED! Now What?

    New episode of Packers: DERAILED, your in-depth Green Bay Packers breakdown from J.J. Lahey and Jake Schyvinck. Josh Jacobs was arrested and charged this week, creating a major football question for the Green Bay Packers as the legal process and NFL review begin. Jacobs has denied the allegations through his attorneys, and nothing is settled yet, but the Packers still have to prepare for every possible outcome. In this episode, J.J. and Jake break down the Josh Jacobs news, what the NFL personal conduct policy could mean, whether a suspension or release is actually possible, and how Brian Gutekunst should think about the running back room if Jacobs becomes unavailable. The Packers built their offense around Jacobs as a physical, tone-setting runner, so any extended absence would force Green Bay to take a hard look at Chris Brooks, MarShawn Lloyd, Pierre Strong Jr., Damien Martinez, and the rest of the depth chart. The guys also look at potential free agent running backs and trade candidates who could make sense for the Packers if they need to add another legitimate option before the season. Is there a veteran stopgap who fits Matt LaFleur’s offense? Would Green Bay need to make a bigger move? Or can the Packers survive with the backs already in the building? This is a serious, complicated situation, but from a football perspective, the Packers have to be ready. If Josh Jacobs is not available, Green Bay cannot afford to be caught flat-footed.
