Green Bay Packers Research Papers
It’s the buzz of the NFL world. The Green Bay Packers have made one big addition this week. The team has just signed the offensive lineman Adam Pankey.

According to Yahoo Sports, the Green Bay Packers has just signed offensive lineman Adam Pankey from practice squad to active roster. Originally, Pankey was signed with the Green Bay as an undrafted free agent out of West Virginia, Yahoo said.

What to expect from Adam Pankey
As mentioned earlier on the Packers website, the Green Bay has decided to release Ricky Jean Francois and LaDarius Gunter to pave the way for incoming new players like OL Adam Pankey and WR Geronimo Allison. Pankey, 6-foot-5 inches and 324 pounds offensive lineman, has been originally signed by the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of West Virginia last May.

Pankey’s wide-body appearance, which proved to be tough for some players, will appeal to some NFL teams looking for a big guard. The former Mountaineers can handle basic zone blocks, but there will be some issues on his drive-blocking power, the NFL said.

Finally, with Pankey under their roof, the Green Bay Packers now have 10 offensive linemen, which much better compared with Sunday’s game with Seattle Seahawks where the Packers had only 7 linemen on the active roster. Other NFL-related news
In other football related stories, several former Packers players nominated for NFL Pro Football Hall of Fame. These include LeRoy Butler, Sterling Sharpe, Donald Driver and head coach Mike Holmgren are all nominated for the Pro Hall of Fame Class of 2018, according to Packers.

A four-time All-Pro and Pro Bowler, LeRoy Butler played in 181 regular-season games from 1990 to 2001. Butler was also the first NFL defensive back to get the 20 interceptions and 20 sacks. Finally, all of the nominees are members of the Green Bay Packers Hall of

    New England can adjust to Gronk’s absence with plenty of bunch formations, which can setup miss matches with linebackers. However, the pivotal piece for the Patriots going forward is tight end Martellus Bennett, who New England traded for in March.

    At 20, he was one of the youngest players eligible for the draft and a little undersized, but his speed, remarkable playmaking ability and a profound level of toughness more than made up for it. On his first season, he finished with 76 tackles, one forced fumble and five interceptions that helped the Seahawks into the playoffs. Earl made the All-Pro team almost every season except for 2016 when he was put on injured reserve with a broken tibia, and the Pro-Bowl in both 2014 and 2011.

    When you think of the Cincinnati Bengals you probably think of all the arrests, busts, and bad managing that have taken place in the 90's. I'm telling you the Bengals are on the rise and have changed the ways of their troubled past back to the winning ways of the 80’s. The 1990's and early 2000's were compiled with poor drafts and miss judgment of character in the players they chose, but the past few years the Bengals have proven draft after draft they are stepping up their drafting game. The Bengals faced heavy criticism for filling the locker room with troubled young players. The Bengals were the centerpiece for jokes about players getting arrested and in trouble. For example Chris Henry the wide receiver that they drafted in the 3rd round, knowing that he had a troubled past that even led up to his college days at West Virginia. They unfortunately carried over to the NFL and he got into many bad situations with drug abuse and other situations. Henry did begin to finally turn his life around but sadly his life was cut short in an accident when he fell out of the bed of a moving truck. Henry was only 26. Since then the Bengals have really done a good job in the draft getting good players that have a clean background. Although the Bengals still have taken chances on players that are questionable Marvin Lewis has taken them under his wing and has mentored them and had really helped them turn their lives around, in example Adam Jones and Vontez Burfict. In doing so they spend very low round draft picks on them. Burfict is a perfect example of this. The Start of this kid’s senior season he was a lock for the first round. Burfict did not take the game seriously though. In essence he self­destructed. Getting into trouble with the law, and in games he got called for many unnecessary roughness calls and cost his team plays and yards. By the time the draft rolled around his draft stock had…
