One game (his first ever game as a Packer) that he didn’t contribute much, and all of a sudden he is a waste of space. My gosh.

Who said he is a waste of space? If you are referring to me re-read my original post. I said I didn't see most of the 2nd half so I was asking other people what did they see. I also said they only threw to him 4 times. It surprised me. Especially considering he was on the field for most of the offensive plays.

I know this is about graham ... but I still miss Cook. He just got 180 yards from Carr. That dude can move. I know I know we had to get bennett.

Thanks Z. That's all I needed to know. It has nothing to do with dissing Graham or hating him. I was trying to find out what happened.

He will dominate this week.

That’s it! If Graham can take away defenders from our WRs, he’s contributing big time!
That’s no waste, for sure! And he will make some big plays for us down the line.

Exactly. If having Graham on the field makes it even just a little easier for Cobb and Adams and Allison to get open, then he's well worth the money. Eventually it will open up opportunities for the running backs to get involved in the passing game too. And Green Bay still has a stable of wide receivers in reserve, some of whom are almost as tall as Graham. Once Rodgers gets a little more confident in them, this offense is going to steamroll down the field. Will it ever be as great as the 2011 offense? Probably not. But it should be fun to watch.

As ever, it never ceases to amaze me how many post demonstrate just how tunnel vision can cause one to not see what so many others do see. Neither Graham nor Adams nor Williams or any other Packer is capable of elevating their play above average without Rodgers. The 2017 season is proof that GB is one dimensional and is lost without Aaron Rodgers playing QB. He can raise the on field level of play of players like Graham and others , yet without him the Packers are no better than a 24th ranked team.

Don;t believe it, watch as Kizer leads the Packers against the Vikings this Sunday. 🤷

GB QBs only threw to Graham 3 times; not 4! On the 3rd down play in 3rd Q before the FG; Rodgers was targeting Adams NOT Graham. Graham ran the wrong route and knocked down the TD pass to an open Adams.

The Bears for most of the game covered Graham with a safety and Graham got ZERO separation under from safeties. On the one nice pass he caught was on 2nd and 20. He ran a shallow cross and was covered by Kwiatkowski [playing MLB position] Kwiatkowski was slow to cover because Kendricks ran a great rub, Graham was cut down by safety for no YAC.

I only saw him blocking on run plays and it just stunk, it was worthless. I saw one good block in PS, so I had some hope he’d at least rise to below average, to no avail. He might be the softest player in NFL history.

On three plays he did contribute:
-On the 51 yarder to Adams Floyd jammed him for 5 yards and handed him off to a safety.
-On the Kizer Fumble they lined him up wide left with 4 receivers right; and Bears doubled him with Amukamara and a safety.
-On the Adams TD; Graham lined up in slot inside of Adams and was doubled; this helped Adams get to EZ.
Last year NO ONE doubled him in the RZ; I’m shocked the Bears did. If teams double him in the RZ then he will have value in RZ even if he doesn't catch a ball.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
