Two days after the Green Bay Packers claimed tight end Michael Roberts on waivers from the Detroit Lions, he is back on the waiver wire.According to Field Yates of ESPN, Roberts failed his physical upon arriving in Green Bay, leading to his release. The situation should come as little surprise to anyone who has been following Roberts’ movements over the past week, however. The Lions originally had a deal in place to trade Roberts to the New England Patriots, but he failed his physical in Foxboro, voiding the trade. Now the same has happened to him in Green Bay and he’s back on the waiver wire.Given two failed exams in less than a week, Roberts will likely go unclaimed this time and will end up as a free agent. He would likely have to rehab on his own and try to earn a roster spot around the time that NFL teams start up training camps in late July.The Packers still have six tight ends on their 90-man roster. Veterans Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis look to be the top options for the fall, while third-round pick Jace Sternberger is assured of a roster spot. Second-year pro Robert Tonyan will battle Evan Baylis and recent acquisition Pharoah McKever for a potential fourth spot on the roster throughout camp. This writer believed that Roberts might have been in consideration for a blocking role as TE4 if he could have beat out Tonyan and company in camp, but that is no longer a concern.The Packers now return to having 89 players on their 90-man roster. The team will report for training camp on July 24th. One of the best pass protectors in the draft had a meeting with the Packers sometime recently." />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesAcme Packing Company homepageHorizontal - WhiteAcme Packing Companya Green Bay Packers communityFollow Acme Packing Company online:Follow Acme Packing Company on TwitterFollow Acme Packing Company on FacebookFollow Acme Packing Company on InstagramLog in or sign upLog InSign UpSite searchSearchSearchAcme Packing Company main menuFanpostsFanshotsSectionsPackersOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 321 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTEarlier this morning, Green Bay Packers fans learned that one of the top quarterbacks in the 2019 NFL Draft class, Drew Lock from Missouri Clay Matthews Jersey , will be in town for a pre-draft visit with the team. Shortly thereafter, news broke that the team had met with one of the best protectors of the quarterback in the draft.Andre Dillard is one of the top offensive linemen in this year’s draft, and he is a ready-made NFL offensive tackle. In fact, he may be the best left tackle prospect this spring, and players at that position generally do not last long. According to Adam Schefter, the Packers were one of several teams to host the Washington State product on a recent official pre-draft visit.For a 6-foot-5, 315-pound man, Dillard’s athleticism and quick feet are obvious, both on tape and in testing results. At the 2019 NFL Combine, Dillard ran under five seconds in the 40-yard dash (4.96 officially), and he posted the second-best cone time among all offensive linemen (7.44 seconds) and the best short shuttle result (4.40 seconds). In this year’s SB Nation NFL Mock Draft, the writers at Cat Scratch Reader picked Dillard as the Carolina Panthers’ selection at #16 overall.With the Packers’ uncertainty on the offensive line Blake Martinez Color Rush Jersey , acquiring a starting-caliber tackle seems like almost an inevitability at this point. The Packers have had several top options in for workouts in addition to Dillard, with Greg Little, Kaleb McGary, and Tytus Howard all visiting the team in recent weeks. That points to serious interest in the position, which is logical given concerns about the depth at tackle plus Bryan Bulaga’s injury history and contract situation. Bulaga missed just two full games in 2018, but did have to leave parts of several others due to injury; meanwhile, he is only signed through the upcoming 2019 season.Interestingly, Dillard was teammates with 2018 Packers draft pick Cole Madison for a few years. The two were bookend tackles for two full seasons in 2016 and 2017, with Dillard manning the left tackle position and Madison playing on the right side.
