They'll line him up in the backfield and get him the ball in the flat, with some open field blocking ahead of him. Kind of get the feeling Mike wants to experiment with speed.

Also seems to me they want to challenge Janis.

Competition for the last 2 or 3 WR spots is going to be intense.

Just like it should be.

KKinda glad The Packers have that extra preseason game, will give the drafted and udfa (we will find out soon who they are) guys an extra game to show their stuff.

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

This kid is a Donald Driver type steal.
Good speed, good return man, very good at back shoulder catches.
Keep an eye on this guy over the next few years.

What I don't get, for a WR who will undoubtedly top out at the 4th/5th WR slot, why not take the German dude and see if he turns out to be anything.

There was a new article saying that Rams agreed to draft Michael Sam as a deal with the league.

http://590thefan.com/league-made-deal-with-rams-to-draft-sam

As much as the NFL Network were telling us that the Drafting of the German dude was not a gimmick. I remember distinctly the same type of league shill for Michael Sam. The league is all about money and having this German dude creates a buzz where football is a very low priority is $$$ for the league and advertisers.

I hope he makes it, but with all this strange media about the Michael Sam deal with the Rams it is hard to think we might not be being played in some weird marketing agenda.

OK tinfoil hat off.

A very superficial look at this pick tells me the Packers are expecting more from Janis on offense this year and they may want him off the kick return duties. Assuming all our injured WRs return at full strength my guess is Adams or Abbredaris will be odd man out. My money is on Abbredaris.

Then again we all may be reading too much into the big picture. It could be that Ted and Mike have no special plans for this guy and he was just a player that they really liked at that spot and they will let the chips fall where they may.

This Trevor Davis ... I know nothing about, other than he's supposed to be fast.

dfosterf (52m) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (52m) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (55m) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (58m) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (1h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (1h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (1h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (1h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (1h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (1h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (1h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (3h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (3h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (3h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (19h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?
