If you can get him at a discount, why not.

That is somewhat of a surprise... but...maybe, Davante isn't ready for superstardom and Janis is junk.

The one thing that does make sense is he's a disciplined vet. The kind who could play with Peyton so he would fit with Aaron and his desire to not make mental errors... outside of Jordy and Cobb I'm not sure we have another guy who doesn't.

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."

Reggie Wayne wants to play with a really good QB like he has done his whole career and have a shot at winning another Super Bowl. Packers would be one of the teams that can qualify for that.

I doubt the Packers have serious interest in bringing him in but might be checking him out and maybe if they think he's still elite and can be had at less than elite prices might bring him in (but unlikely in my mind)

don't get your panties in a bundle, no way do the Packers sign him,,,,,,,they would sign a TE before a WR

17 Adams, Davante WR 6-1 215 22 2 Fresno State
88 Montgomery, Ty WR 6-0 216 22 R Stanford

We'll see:

13 Collins, Ricky WR 6-0 198 23 R Texas A&M-Commerce
1 Coxson, Adrian WR 6-1 209 22 R Stony Brook
82 Hunt, Jimmie WR 6-0 208 24 R Missouri
83 Janis, Jeff WR 6-3 219 24 2 Saginaw Valley State
84 Abbrederis, Jared WR 6-1 195 24 2 Wisconsin
10 Blue, Javess WR 6-0 188 22 R Kentucky
11 Pinkard, Larry WR 6-0 196 23 R Old Dominion
19 White, Myles WR 6-0 190 25 2 Louisiana Tech

I'd take a trial basis with Wayne over any of the we'll see guys. We could keep 6 WRs anyway and stash a couple more on the PS.

I'd feel much better about our depth, which everyone else apparently thinks is incredible, with Wayne joining Nelson, Cobb, Adams and Montgomery than any of the we'll see guys.

Or Wayne might come in and be the #4 as he has declined from his elite play and Adams play well even well he seemed to be off the page with Rodgers, if he got and stayed on the same page Adams as a #3 might be scary or he might be 2b or something.

Janis has a lot of physical potential and Abbrederis looked like a complete natural before getting hurt last year and has great quickness. If you use them to their strength they have a lot of physical potential.
