The loss of right tackle Bryan Bulaga for at least a month (and possibly more), is a tough break for the Green Bay Packers. With Bulaga out, the Packers are down to just left tackle David Bakhtiari and swing tackle Don Barclay, who is expected to start for Bulaga Sunday. The Packers are in need of at least a backup with Bulaga out and could look to add a starter if Barclay struggles. Here are four players the Packers could sign to replace Bulaga.
4. Paul McQuistan
A former third round pick of the Oakland Raiders, McQuistan was cut by the Cleveland Browns in February. McQuistan could take over for Barclay as the team's swing tackle. Like Barclay, McQuistan has served as both a guard and a tackle.
3. Tyson Clabo
Clabo was cut by the Houston Texans in May and hasn't latched onto a new team yet. Clabo played for six different NFL teams, but spent much of his career starting for the Atlanta Falcons. He likely doesn't have much left in the tank, but he could serve as a veteran swing tackle.
2. Jeremy Vujnovich
Vujnovich is the only tackle on the Packers' practice squad. He spent all of last season on the practice squad after going undrafted out of Louisiana College. He's on the practice squad for a reason, and his knowledge of the team's offense could give him an advantage.
1. Anthony Collins
After playing well as a reserve/spot starter for the Cincinnati Bengals, Collins signed a 5-year, $30 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was a disaster. No one has picked up Collins since, but he can still be a serviceable player as a swing tackle.
