Expectations weren't too high when cornerback Rasul Douglas joined the Packers last season, but he wound up being a very welcome addition to the defense. Douglas was signed off the Cardinals practice squad with the Packers thin at corner with Jaire Alexander out and he intercepted five passes in 12 games after joining the team. [more]

I don't see Douglas getting 5 Ints or two pick 6 this year but he can still be a successful CB. I like how he is not taking anything for granted.

I saw an interview he did. He said Green Bay was the first place that taught him how to watch film the right way.

I don’t think he will have the same numbers. He is going to get targeted because he is not Alexander or Stokes. He will get his share of work. Hopefully he can get good results.

Pundits say his numbers are an outlier, that is expected to regress to the mean. However, that presumes thst he is playing the same way he had before, which is not the case.

He may or may not have similar numbers again, but the numbers he had are a result of studying film or doing it in a new way that he had not been doing before.

Also note, that he was not feasting on shitty QBs. He went against elite guys, including Stafford iirc. And anyway, there is only preparation meeting opportunity. Including, film room preparation.

I think Rasul did get one against Fields, but most of the other QBs we played are good players. Fields looks like he's gonna be good, but he wasn't at the top of his game yet last year.
