IMO Adams has shown enough to conclude that he was worthy of having been drafted. He has not yet shown enough to conclude that he was worthy of being drafted in the second round.

IMO Abbrederis and Janis have not yet shown enough to conclude they are worthy of having been drafted.

IMO Adams has not yet shown himself worthy of the #3 roster spot. He may be #3 now, but that is only because no one else has shown themselves worthy either, and he's simply "best available."

IMO neither Abbrederis nor Janis has shown themselves worthy of a roster spot.

OTOH, IMO none of them have yet had enough time to demonstrate what, in the end, they are worthy of.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

It's pretty startling how many people think their is some conspiracy about who gets playing time and who doesn't.

Everyone says he wasn't ready, including himself, but you don't buy it? Oh ok.

I still think this type of strategy would have helped in the Seattle playoff game as it opens up the dump passes over the middle.

He has a steeper learning curve to make and people said that well before his draft into the NFL.

That being said, I do think they did waste some opportunities... the one I had in mind was kickoff returns... I know some loved RB Harris, but the guy was fairly average at best on kick off returns. In the last one or two preseason games Janis seemed to be able to catch the kicks and use great speed to return them and would of been better than Harris if he could keep control of the balls.

Also could be used on deep routes some too, might not be able to beat the CBs back yet, but if he kept running deep route after deep route, very well might of tired the CB out, and/or held a safety in place watching him so they couldn't move forward as quickly.

Nelson and Cobb are the definite 1-2. I still think Adams locks the 3rd spot up with his improvement throughout last season and with the words of McCarthy coming into OTAs. 4th and 5th position will be between Janis and Abbrederis (I think Janis comes out on top of that battle) and depending on how Montgomery comes along in training camp, he locks the 6th WR position up with his return abilities.

Isn't Abbrederis still considered a return threat or have the Packers given this to Montgomery already? Last I heard, Montgomery was dropping the ball.

Abby sticks due to his PR abilities. Monty hasn't beat him out yet.

Don't know if Abby has any PR ability left. It's a short list of WR/PR with rebuilt knees and successful careers as far as I can remember. I'm sure there are a few. But only a few.

Abby is a guy who is such a smart football player...gotta be room for him somewhere unless he refused to get stronger and improve on his ridiculously low 4 pumps of 225lbs. And of course, Montgomery is making the team as a 3rd rounder. Gotta keep 6, there. Hard to do, maybe, with having to keep Hundley and Tolzien and needing bodies on DL.

1) Jordy
2) RC18
3) Davante (to start season)
4) Janis (to start season)
5) Abbrederis (to start season)
6) Montgomery (to start season)

The last 4 spots, if that's how many we keep, are going to be quite fluid, I think. No reason any of them couldn't be as high as 3rd or as low as 6th.

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."

I agree with the list above but think it will be the bottom 3 rather than 4 that will be fluid. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Abby is 6th depending on how far along on his recovery he is.

If Monty can't field a punt, he's not gonna be PR.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (15h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE
