Glad to see the Packers are doing due process. Just seeing the words said doesn't tell you much. Even being there one needs to interpret he is really saying/meaning. That involves tone, body language, eyes, etc. So this could be very good or very bad, lets hope they interpret it correctly and can work with it.

Remember Michael Finley made some pretty stupid comments as a rookie and he turned out OK.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Anybody who thinks he was complaining watch the video of it. More light hearted of an answer on video than it reads. He didn't sound like he was complaining but just telling the reporters the process but everyones gotta be so quick to trash someone.

Bring that over to Polite's comments, kids don't always use the most precise words to describe what has happen. (Even adults struggle with this.) I am sure most star athletes are not use to being questioned. The interview was not what he expected.

The aspect that bothered my from the comments (and I will not take the time to find it) was the general sentiment that he was not used to critical analysis of his play. No wonder Florida has sucked the last few years!!! It would seem their players aren't being held accountable in the film room.

Perhaps we will only need one more rush guy if we can land OLB Justin Houston who may be released by the Chiefs.

I don't have links but Matt Millen said he heard from 5 scouts that he bombed his interviews and they think he faked his injury as he started out poorly. So it wasn't just his packers comment. It's possible I already posted that in this thread prior - get off my back about it

Where there you go. Matt Millen is so knowledgeable. He did such a good job with the Lions he's got franchises lining up to offer him their team's top spot too. 😁

GBG, I am not terribly bright and not sure I get it either, but I think the suggestion may be that they are bashing him only to select him in a lower round...but have have not had my Geritol yet, so I may be way off.
