Jared will be a difference maker.

There’s a seldom-used receiver from the Green Bay Packers’ 2014 draft class who just might be able to energize their sluggish passing game late in the season.

No, it’s not Jeff Janis, the fan-favorite seventh-round pick who can’t seem to find a regular role in the offense.

Based on what Jared Abbrederis did in Sunday’s 30-20 win over the Oakland Raiders, the 2014 fifth-round pick from Wisconsin could become a bigger part of coach Mike McCarthy’s future game plans.

One of the many things that stuck out from AR's press conference. He said it in a way that almost seemed to be a shot towards MM for not getting him in more.

I don't know if Abby is the savior, or just a lesser evil. We seem to be in desperation mode to find someone who can catch and chew gum at the same time. With how pathetic Janis and Adams have been, Quarless and Abby suddenly become studs.

I'd have rather seen Abby than Janis.

We just need somebody on the field who puts in max effort so the Packers can at least be a threat on offense. I'll tell you right now. Nobody is afraid of Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers is winning these games on his own because of his head, catching 12 men on the field, and throwing to receivers that are being held.

Guys like Davante Adams are hardly helping. Instead of looking for the ball, he's looking for the flag with every pass thrown to him thats more than 8 yards down the field.

Cobb is special, and he's getting his own packages. He's there primarily as a decoy and to confuse defenses, but at the end of the day he's a #2.

Jones is slow.

Janis just can't figure it out.

Abbrederis is definitely showcasing his effort and will to help out.

We need a receiver similar to Dallas' Cole Beasley... that little white guy who nobody respects. Some sort of weapon that's built the way San Diego's Danny Woodhead or NYG's Shane Vereen. Safety blanket high-effort guys. If it's Abbrederis, I'm fine with that.

In addition to Abby, we need to get Crockett in the game for some touches.

I'm just not sure Aaron Rodgers trusts many of his receivers right now. That may or may not be justifiable, but it seems to be the case.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?
dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy
dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious
dfosterf (26-Aug) : *Orzech*
dfosterf (26-Aug) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Packers signed someone for three year deal
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know
