As this thread has gone on I can't help but keep flashing to another player that Davante reminds me of... Terry Mickens. Anyone remember him? Seemed about the same size...looked the same on the field. Same kind of speed and I think Mickens was stronger and Davante probably could outjump him.
I remember the New England game...the guy had a killer drop that probably should've cost us the game. Huge moment...he came up very small. He was out of sync with Aaron deep in the season many times. He looked to be regressing to me...yes, I know he had a fine game vs. one of the worst secondaries in football against Dallas...still, not a big personal fan, but likes sschind I want to see the Packers win so I don't care if Masthay is playing WR to get that done if he can get it done.
One of McGinn's snippets on Adams had a scout from another team saying he was a 4th round type prospect. I was very disappointed when we selected him from that gimmicky offense at Fresno.
Of course, nobody knows for sure how it will all play out with our WR corps but I don't see Davante as any better than James Jones...now, or ever. Janis has a chance to be a real difference maker. I expect to see Janis displace Adams like Adams displaced Boykin. That 2nd round thing is going to be hard to overcome for anyone behind Davante save for Montgomery.
Hopefully, Davante grows on me.
Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."
