The times I have seen him play, he always fights for the ball. A big guy, who I think would go great with Rodgers.
JMO of course.
For the right price, I’d say give it a shot.
I don’t think he will take less money to play here anyway. He wants to play the Cowboys twice a year.

I'm confident that BG will draft a speedy WR and/or Trevor Davis will elevate his game beyond just returning Punts/Kickoffs.

Somebody please explain how The Packers can afford Dez Bryant when they couldn't afford Jordy Nelson after signing Jimmy Graham.
Even if they can afford Bryant then explain the logic of cutting Jordy Nelson.
Seems the team would be better with Jordy rather than Bryant.
What's done is done.

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

IMO, GB will draft a WR this year. My dream WR would be not less than 6' 1" tall, have hands large enough to palm a basketball, a sprinters speed, and agility of a cat. That said, the experts mostly say that this will be a weak draft for WRs. As a result BG may need to carefully keep watch for any possible deals to acquire the needed WR talent. My trade package would include Randall Cobb + a lower round draft pick as needed for a solid #2 veteran WR to play Nelsons former position and move Montgomery into the Slot Receiver position.

I just hope he doesn’t end up in Minnesota.
I bet where ever he goes, if there is a half decent QB, he will light it up.
Just to prove Dallas wrong.
Revenge can bring out a lot of ability.
Just look at Favre in Minnesota against us in his first year there.
