Packers brace for bad news on Bryan Bulaga's knee - JSOnline

I'm really hoping it's not bad. There are some options but none that I'm confident about right now

Always afraid of a big injury and while I'm praying for the best, this doesn't look good. Bulaga was vital to this team, losing him is just a huge blow

 

[Doctor Krieger]

Unfreakingbelievable.

 

[Trudem]

sadly this is nothing new...this team just cannot avoid injuries.

This will drastically change things if he is indeed out for the season

Bulaga is number 3 or 4 on my list of players we need for a successful season. Hopefully it's just a tweak.

Being that Bakhtiari played LT in college and he has had an outstanding camp I'd like to see him get a shot there since the news on Bulaga isn't sounding promising. Worst case we did go 6-3 with Newhouse and Barclay as out tackles.

It was said that the injury occurred on the first series of the scrimmage, but that he ended up playing about 30 snaps. I don't think you could play 30 snaps on a torn ACL.

If you could, then Adrian Peterson is a huge wuss!

Seriously though, definitely hoping for the best on this one. I gotta believe that Bahktiari would get a shot on the left side, I didn't really watch him, but I also didn't notice him in a negative light during the scrimmage.

You have a 4th round pick waiting in the wings who might be better than Buluga, but best of luck to him, I hate when injuries hit any team, even a rivals team.

Bulaga and Sitton are by far our best linemen, so no, the rookie is not better than Bulaga. This is awful news.

Bahktiari has talent but at this point I don't think he's better than Bulaga, more durable maybe but not better. I am hearing that Sherrod might be cleared for full contact very soon. It's a long shot but you never know.

I think he is very capable of being a good RT this year. Playing LT is a major concern. I know he has been backing up Bulaga at that spot in practice but still concerning

God this sucks.

Its official. Bulaga out for season. Shit..

Green Bay Packers left tackle Bryan Bulaga out for season - ESPN

Tis the season to tear ACLs I guess.

Seems like ACL tears are pretty high this year or maybe it's just more impactful players are getting them but all the top tier teams seem to be having poor luck in terms of health this offseason.

GOD DAMN IT

 

[Jedster]

Even more important to focus on the running game now...

I think Bakhtiari has a good shot at LT. He could put on a few more pounds but has good height, longer arms than Bulaga, had a better bench press and better overall speed than Bulaga. I just hope he has the smarts. He's been pretty damn impressive so far in camp. Has to be better than Newhouse at LT cause you can't get much worse.
