The real question is:

Is Jordy a bust now?

Gotta stop your rambling booty right thar sir! Andre Rison was on the streets when Ron Wolf called when the Jaguars released his ass after 10 games. TEN REGULAR SEASON GAMES. Regular. Season. Games. Ten of them and 9 of which he STARTED. Don't even come chirping Andre Rison, the dude was in FOOTBALL SHAPE and a damn starter.

Let's sign a couple aging wrong side of 30 years old players who couldn't even get a roster spot when 2,880 of them were available. Bingo! Bango! Bucko!!

Let's compare this situation to Andre Rison who started 9 games, played in 10, was 29 years old and had one of 1,590 roster positions when he was released by the Jaguars and the Packers picked him up.

Apples and DONKEYS is what we're talking about right here.


Give me some real names!!!

In any case, Ron got us a guy who helped us win a SB, let's not get off track here. That is the point...we lost a key member of our team in Robert Brooks and Ron Wolf went out and replaced him with Bad Moon. Jordy goes down and Ted Thompson will replace him with... ??? Ron's method netted a SB championship. TT's method will net us... ????

...and let's not forget that Ron added Keith Jackson at TE...and he added Bad Moon knowing he had a top ranked defense that could win for him. Still, he went out and made move because he wanted to pour it all out to win one and that's exactly what happened. We were the pre-season SB favorites...everyone would acknowledge we're close so we're going to sit on our hands? As I said previously, there'll never be a time that showcases the differences in approaches between Wolf and Thompson more than right now. We'll see what TT's stewardship nets us in a season where we were the SB favorites.

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."

Blocking people is for bitches. I expect more from a member of the dojo! 😁

If you're looking for WR's, this is the list you need to focus on because this is the only list that matters.

Here they are in alphabetical order for your convenience.

84 Abbrederis, Jared
17 Adams, Davante
10 Blue, Javess
18 Cobb, Randall
82 Hunt, Jimmie
83 Janis, Jeff
88 Montgomery, Ty
87 Nelson, Jordy
11 Pinkard, Larry
19 White, Myles
5 Williams, Ed


All the injury to Jordy Nelson means is someone who was going to be cut, will not be cut from this group.


Although on topic, I did find this to be funny.

The Andre Rison signing gets so overblown, he barely did anything here. That wasn't really any more impactful of a signing than us getting Howard Green in 2010 it just wasn't as big of a name.

I'm unblocked! Lambeau leap for me!

Jeff Janis just might do that. Jordy lite is what they have been saying about him. A long way from Saginaw Valley State.

A shame we let Charles Johnson get away... this would be so much more palatable if we still had him. BTW, who did we keep in order to let this guy go?

EDIT: I looked. We kept JARRETT FREAKING BOYKIN and JEREMY FREAKING ROSS and let Charles Johnson go. Brilliant. Apparently, Ted Thompson doesn't know WR talent like we thought because Johnson is becoming a force in Minnesota and Ross and Boykin are farts in the wind.

Wide receivers (5) — Randall Cobb, Jordy Nelson, James Jones, Jarrett Boykin, Jeremy Ross

CUT: Charles Johnson

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
