I don't know that a 3rd string CB is trying mostly to just not get beat over the top. He may want to make a statement and cover well or even go for an interception. Maybe even Boykin made a hell of a move. Those are other possibilities besides yours. The point remains I, and I believe you also, would like to see what he could do against the 1's.

Otis Merrill and Nic Cooper have a shot. Otherwise I'd PS them.

The guy trying to covering Boykins in the Browns game when he made those two big plays close to back to back was playing very loose coverage and was going back-wards mostly even when he cut inward... that's a CB that's playing scared and playing to not get burned.

That being said he played against a different CB in the Chargers game... but yes I'd like to see him go against a better CB. Doesn't have to be 1st string but someone that I think would make a roster at the end of training camp.

And don't get me wrong Boykins is a very good route runner. Which is why he's schooling the CBs that aren't good against crisp routes. But I want to see more overall raw potential from him to grow into.

Dezman Moses makes the team.
Boykin has an outside chance.
Tyler is on the PS.

Moses is now a lock IMO.. kid just plays well.

After that.. hard saying.

I thought it interesting the Levine was playing first with the ones last night.. then let almost everyone thereafter rotate in.

OLB Moses makes the 53 man roster.

S Richardson, RB Tyler, FB Cooper, WR Boykins, WR Moss and maybe one of the OL and CB get a look at the practice squad. Probably wouldn't keep a FB but I liked FB Cooper run and he was a RB in college... I wouldn't mind making him a FB/RB on the practice squad.

I think Moses makes it as well.
This kid looks like he could be an up and comer.

LB Dezman Moses and WR Jarrett Boykin are my choices to make the final 53.

The Boykin kid looks to have bounced Borel out of GB... at least from my perspective. Who knows, maybe they trade a couple of our WRs prior to cutting to 53? It would be nice if Ted could swing that.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
