What I want to know is this, who can step up at returner? Special teams is your best way onto the 53.

If one of the rookies and Jake show lots of promise, maybe they trade Randall Cobb to Raiders with a 2nd rounder for Khalil Mack :D

Very few people probably want that contract for right now.

Trevor Davis, Jaire Alexander, Quinten Rollins, Tramon Williams

Kick Returner
Trevor Davis, Ty Montgomery, Jaire Alexander, CJ Johnson, J'Mon Moore

Though I'm guessing CJ Johnson is an error as he's a LB that's on the IR.

He's just not trade bait.
Having said that I like his chances of a much better year with the old OC and Rodgers back. Hundley was never comfortable throwing to the middle of the field so last year wasn't all him. Besides, other than Adams he's the only wr they have that Rodgers has thrown the ball to more than 20-30 times to.

Let's not forget they don't have the luxury of working new guys in and getting familiar with one another to a large degree. They already have to transition Graham in there. They need to win 4 or 5 of their first six games or they are going to be in trouble. The middle of that schedule is brutal.

Let one of the backup receivers/corners/running backs handle return duties.

After seeing the game last night, I really want Kumerow to make this team.
I'd love to see what this kid can do with Aaron Rodgers throwing him the ball.

I believe there was play of Monty dropping a punt and DB Randall scooped it up as a ST Gunner.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
