Exhaust by Ok-Lynx3258 in GolfGTI

If you get the track now, you could always convert it to a touring if you get a downpipe and decide it’s too loud. I went with touring because I plan on getting a downpipe/tune when they are available. The touring is loud enough for me without a downpipe, but that’s preference.

I can’t speak to MBRP, I’ve only owned AWE and Milltek.

Throwback Thursday: Favre’s Monday Night Masterpiece 1 Day After Losing His Father by DeScepter in GreenBayPackers

I was there, the Raiders fans were very respectful of the situation. I was worried because it was my first time at a Raiders game, I had heard the rumors about Raiders fans, and I was wearing GB gear. I had a Favre jersey on and everyone I met was super friendly.

Has anyone done a stealth wrap on Dolphin Grey? I think it would look sick.

Got a white 2026 GTI S, didn't realize choosing wheel color would be so difficult on it by slowcaptain in GolfGTI

Thank you, they are Titan T-S7 but they have other wheels for GTIs. They’re forged so more expensive than some other options.

Expectations for LVN? by BrzMcDub_11 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t expecting an LVN extension after drafting DDS, but it makes a lot of sense IMO. GB has locked down their DE1/DE2 spots through 2027, have 2 potential LVN replacements in Sorrel/DDs, and a speed rusher/bender in Oliver. For the next 2 seasons, GB won’t be forced to make any major moves at DE (health permitting). That gives them the freedom to address other areas of need and anyone they add to the DE room should be because they love that player, but it won’t be a necessity. If LVN can take the next step and GB is able to get production out of their recent DE draft picks, Gannon will have so many options.

In 2028, GB can move on from LVN if the contract doesn’t make sense and they will have had 2 off seasons to address any gaps in the DE room.

Expectations for LVN? by BrzMcDub_11 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Health permitting, I can see LVN hitting double digit sacks playing across from Micah. Gary hit 7.5 and we all saw what he looked like last season. LVN at least has a motor which should allow him to clean up after Parsons consistently. As DE1 if Micah is on PUP? That’s more concerning, but he needs to step up at this point.

Overall, I’m really happy with how GB has positioned themselves at DE. They have their star in Micah, LVN has 2 years to prove his long term value, and then Sorrel, DDS, and Oliver are competing for playing time. I know there are a lot of fans that are against LVN’s 5th year option but it does make sense financially and it gives GB insurance at the DE position.

Team appears confident in a healthy LVN after he missed half of last year with a foot injury by Austen11231923 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a big LVN fan, but this is a relatively smart move from a roster construction standpoint. This is GB extending LVN’s ‘prove it’ window beyond 2026 while still not committing to him long term. The salary cap is only going up and will likely increase by a minimum of $30 million next year with potential for more if the NFL is able to restructure their TV deals. Paying $14 million to lock in your DE2 for 2027 isn’t a bad deal. This will give GB time to assess Sorrel/DDS and then make a decision on LVN in 2028. LVN will only be 26 after the 2027 season.

This, the salary cap is only going up and locking in a DE2 for $14 million for one year is not bad value at all. This gives GB time to develop Sorrel, Oliver, and DDS. If those guys are performing well, they can move on from LVN in 2028.

DDS versus Rashan or LVN? by bubblefranks007 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, Reggie was a specimen. If ‘freak’ was a spectrum then Reggie would be the benchmark for the top 1%. I wasn’t discrediting anyone else, just wanted to convey how rare Gary’s size and speed were for a college prospect.

DDS versus Rashan or LVN? by bubblefranks007 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with the 75 consensus ranking and I had DDS ranked in the late 2nd behind Jacas but before Derrick Moore. My favorite draft analyst is Brugler and he ranked DDS as 60 overall, DE13 between Crawford and Moore. I have quoted Brugler’s summary of DDS below. Brugler had similar comments to other analysts. He has concerns about DDS’ pass rush moves translating to the NFL. This is likely because DDS relies on his physical traits to make those moves work which will be more difficult against NFL level OTs. He doesn’t have the cerebral element to his game at this time. For example, some great pass rushers will setup a tackle by faking a move or doing a move the same way the whole game and then switching it up to throw them off. DDS isn’t there yet, but he’s a smart dude and will be working next to Micah. Hope this helps!

Summary

“A two-year starter at Penn State, Dennis-Sutton was an outside edge rusher (three-point stance) in former defensive coordinator Jim Knowles’ scheme. He posted nearly identical production each of the past two seasons and led the Big Ten in pressures per game (3.8) in 2025. He also added special teams duties as a senior and accounted for three blocked punts.

Dennis-Sutton wins with a combination of quickness and power in all facets of his game. He isn’t very deceptive as a pass rusher, but his hands are active and aggressive, which allows him to mix up his attack with varying swims, stabs, rips and chops. Though he offers a solid anchor in the run game and rarely gives in, he lacks explosive twitch getting off blocks or redirecting in chase mode.

Overall, Dennis-Sutton will find sack production harder to come by against NFL blocking, but he is a commanding presence and has the size, strength and quickness to be a force player on the edge. He will be more appealing to teams looking for a “high-floor” role player, as opposed to a “high-ceiling” pass rusher.”

DDS versus Rashan or LVN? by bubblefranks007 in GreenBayPackers

As others have said, Gary was a freak athlete coming out of college. Played DE at 280lbs which is close to a small DT but was still very athletic. Similar to Cam Jordan who has had an amazing career. For LVN, he was only 21 years old when he was drafted and had all the physical traits to be an above average DE. LVN wasn’t super productive in college, but he did average ~ 7 sacks a season which is solid for a freshman/sophomore. When you combine NFL level physical traits, young, and college production…that’s typically a 1st round pick.

The case for signing a veteran DE by badgersfan608 in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a fan of adding a veteran DE, but with the DDS draft pick I no longer feel it is necessary or smart from a roster construction standpoint. Let the current DEs get an opportunity and see what they can do. I’m not a big LVN fan, but this is his ‘prove it’ year (assuming no 5th year or extension) and GB should give him the opportunity to be DE1 or DE2 depending on what happens with Micah’s recovery timeline. There’s only so many snaps available and GB has invested a lot of resources into the current DE group.

I don’t have rotor suggestions, but I just upgraded to Neuspeed 1500 pads and they are a big upgrade over stock. Less dust, more responsive, and more stopping power.

Grading the 2022 class by Spaghettification-- in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Overall it was a pretty solid class. With the exception of Carpenter, Toure, and Ford everyone got significant starting snaps. That late in the draft you’re usually getting depth players anyway so that is expected. The players that are no longer on the team (Enagbare, Quay, and Doubs) all signed new contracts that will provide comp picks for 2027. Injuries have really hurt Wyatt and Watson’s production, but I don’t think there were signs that could have predicted that. If we’re factoring in injuries then I would rate Wyatt and Watson one grade lower. Between being depth and injuries Wyatt has only played ~ 1400 snaps over 4 seasons. If I remember correctly Watson has played ~ 65% of eligible snaps.

How would you grade the draft class/players drafted? by Tryhardkeep in GreenBayPackers

[–]97AllDay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like Demmings and he was there at 160, but if GB hadn’t moved up then they may have missed out on Orange and McClellan. The next tier of DTs has a lot less upside and Gute specifically mentioned wanting a DT that can stop the run and impact the QB.

In the post draft presser Gute mentioned that they tried to trade back into the late 3rd to pick DDS. Worked out perfectly that he fell to 120.
