Lots of questions on the tight end situation, and they're certainly valid. Last year, Andrew Quarless and Richard Rodgers combined for 49 catches, 548 yards and five touchdowns in the regular season. That's right, I said combined. That total couldn't match what Jermichael Finley gave them in his best seasons. At this point, with five NFL seasons to his credit, it's fairly clear what Quarless is. To expect him to make the jump to a 50-catch guy would be unrealistic. But the sense is they think Rodgers can become that. How certain they are about that will dictate how high they need to address the position in the draft.

While we don't have great looking TEs I would still put it pretty far down the list. Improving that position seems like more of a luxury thing.

Seattle got my guy. We shall see how that plays.

It appears that Ted Thompson does think RR is something. I don't know how to gauge that. Finley appeared to be nothing in the beginning but exploded in Arizona. RR's hands have been talked about and sure looked better than what we've seen from that position for awhile.

No Jordan Cameron, no offer to Charles Clay... RR is our guy for better or worse. A. Rodgers loved him in OTA's.

Unnecessary thread, focus on the real needs instead of luxury fantasies . Defense is the #1 priority need, if you can't see that, then you need ease off on the partying and join the rest of the non-zombie Packer Nation .


Go Pack Go !
