Jason Wilde

Jason Wilde joins Alex Strouf for a post-draft check-in on the state of the Packers and the biggest questions still hanging over the roster. Jason explains why the offensive line is the group he’s watching most closely, dives into the opportunities at edge and cornerback, and breaks down the competition at kicker, backup quarterback, and backup running back. He also weighs in on the Packers’ changing messaging at wide receiver and what it says about where the offense is headed heading into 2026.

Jason Wilde joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy to break down several key Packers storylines, starting with Micah Parsons’ recovery timeline and why Green Bay should stay patient rather than rush him back too early. He also discusses why Desmond Ritter appears to be the favorite to back up Jordan Love entering training camp, even if the Packers are not ready to publicly say it outright. Wilde explains that Green Bay is giving Ritter a real runway in the offense, much like they once did with Malik Willis.

The conversation also dives into the Packers’ offensive line outlook, with Wilde saying the current group is likely the one Green Bay plans to take into camp, while acknowledging there could still be competition at a few spots. He also praises the Jayden Reed extension as a bargain for the Packers, arguing that the deal is team-friendly if Reed simply stays healthy and maintains his current level of production. The segment wraps with Wilde explaining the unusual Steelers move involving Aaron Rodgers and why Pittsburgh’s “right of first refusal” setup appears to be more about protecting draft compensation than forcing Rodgers onto the roster.

Jason Wilde joins Jim, Matt & Molly on the Yuengling Guest Hotline. They start with Jason's REFUSAL to say something he hasn't said on any other show today before he answers the show's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Are the Packers closer to winning the Super Bowl than they were at the end of last year? They get into more takeaways from the Packers' 2026 NFL Draft class -- did drafting kicker Trey Smack behind Brandon McManus get them closer to winning this season, and which of the Packers' picks will end up as their STEAL of the draft?

Jason Wilde joins Homer to break down what stood out from the Packers’ draft, including Green Bay’s decision to bring another rookie kicker into the mix. Jason explains why the move signals competition, but also why recent struggles at the position make it fair to be skeptical. He also digs into sixth-round pick Domani Jackson, the former USC and Alabama cornerback, and shares an interesting connection between Jackson and former Packers safety HaHa Clinton-Dix. Plus, Jason talks through transfer culture in college football, what it can reveal about a player, and where Green Bay’s newest additions could fit right away.

The draft is over — but Jason Wilde says the Packers still have a major question to answer.

In this segment of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, Wilde gives his post-draft evaluation of Green Bay’s roster and doesn’t hesitate when asked about the team’s biggest remaining concern:

👉 The offensive line

🚨 Wilde’s Clear Answer

When asked directly, Wilde says:

👉 He would vote YES that the O-line is still the Packers’ biggest issue

Despite the front office saying they feel good about it, Wilde points to:

lingering depth concerns
uncertainty behind the starters
and the reality of how quickly injuries can derail a season
🧠 Jaden Reed Deal = Steal?

Wilde also reacts to the Jaden Reed extension:

Not surprised by the deal
Surprised by how low the money was

The takeaway:
👉 Reed could end up being a massive bargain if he produces

👀 Kicker Situation Gets Interesting

One of the more fascinating parts of the segment:

Packers traded up to draft a kicker
But still have Lucas Havrisik in the mix

Wilde’s view:
👉 If the rookie wins, that makes sense
👉 If Havrisik wins… then what was the pick for?

🧩 Running Back Depth = Risky?

The conversation also highlights:

Heavy reliance on Marshawn Lloyd behind Josh Jacobs
Lloyd has played just 1 of 36 possible games
Packers are clearly betting on his health turning around

👉 Wilde questions whether that’s a safe bet
