The Green Bay Packers receiver's inconsistency gave plenty of reason for doubt.

Davante is going to be just fine.

ALL the WRs on this team were dropping the ball. That's why I tend to put it on the QB. When Aaron is not using proper mechanics, the ball does not come out in a uniform way. If it was just ONE WR dropping it, I would focus on that one dude. But that's not how it was.

After Aaron started "getting with the program" in the playoffs, Davante looked GREAT catching the ball. Go back and look at the Redskins game. Hell, even JANIS looked great catching the ball in the playoffs.

Davante is just as fast as Greg Jennings. Not necessarily as great of a route runner, but Jennings was elite at that. Davante's forte is going up and fighting for the ball, making a play on it in the air. He's gonna be very good for a long time.

Rodgers throwing has nothing to do with balls going through Devante and others hands. Sure some of the drops were from poor ball placement by Rodgers, but the majority of them were the result of lack of concentration, by all the WRs except Jordy.

He seems to have a mental toughness that will allow him to get passed this. But he needs to put in some practice with a jugs machine or find a QB to throw to him all offseason.

But when Aaron was right, even JANIS was catching the ball. It was like night and day.

Well, he's about the 6th receiver on the depth chart in my opinion, so maybe he shouldn't be so confident.

He's just not good enough. Not sudden...no real strengths. Does NOT go up and get the ball as advertised by his combine vertical. His numbers do not translate to the NFL field. He's run of the mill. We'll be fortunate to get an average career out of this guy.

I'm thinking Sanjay Beach territory.

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."
