Interesting Palmer listed as starting ILB next to Barrington.
Perrilo listed as backup LS.

Janis 4th returner?

Jeff better work on his consistency as a WR or he May see himself demoted to the PS.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I think it's gonna take at least two fake games to really get any read on a players consistency. It will be a fun battle to watch.

Janis isn't getting much love anymore... perhaps, it's true? That would make MM wrong.

According to Packer Report, second-year WR Jeff Janis "hasn't even taken a small step" in his second NFL training camp.
Coach Mike McCarthy predicted Janis would take a "big step forward" at the NFL Combine, but Janis' development ostensibly hasn't gone as quickly as hoped. Janis is competing with third-round pick Ty Montgomery and slot type Myles White for the Packers' fourth and fifth receiver jobs with Jared Abbrederis (concussion) on the shelf. Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams remain locked in as Green Bay's top-three wideouts.

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 am most interested in seeing how the depth issue at olb works out; a crucial position in the 3-4 defense.

But I'm thinking it's possible that James Vaughters could keep up the Packers streak of an UDFA OLB making the 53 man roster. If one of the OLBers is injured or if the OLBers outshine the ILBers and use Matthews to fill the hole at ILB then Vaughters could become part of the top 6 healthy guys that only play OLB which could give him a chance to make the roster.

Also it seemed like the pass rushing was better this family night or the pass blocking was worse. With the OL being very healthy, and completely back, I'm guessing (hoping) it's not the pass blocking.

I'm guessing partly because the OLBers keep getting injured and partly because the OLB talent depth has just seemed more impressive than the ILB. Also it's been said pass rushing takes a ton of energy so they probably rotate more as well, especially since 3-4 OLBers get used as 4-2 DE in the nickel packages which teams are running more and more of.

Thanks for the report. I was losing sleep wondering who our backup long snapper was going to be.
