I don't see us in any better position than most other teams at WR depth. Boykin did OK as our #3 as a fill in, but it is unknown if he can do it for a year, and even more unknown if he could step up to fill as one of the top 2. Jones contract was IMO cheap enough for the increased depth and security having him

lol no. Lacy wouldn't have to "carry" the offense just because our top WR are Jordy/Boykin or Cobb/Boykin. You think our passing game would just fall off the map haha, no chance. Even if we were down Jordy AND Cobb the other teams would still be setting up their defenses to stop Rodgers. The more WRs that went down the more we would lean on the running game certainly but as long as Rodgers is back there we wouldn't have to be carried by it.

I was just listening to the SCORE out of Chicago. I came in the middle of the conversation so I don't know who was talking but he said this is one of the deeper drafts when it comes to WR talent.
He also said a couple of coaches were pretty disgusted with the depth at TE. One of them said this is the worst group of TE that he ever saw.

I think the world of Rodgers ability, and Cobb, Jordy, and Boykin are still an above average #1-3 on the receiver depth chart. But with Finley probably being done (or never the same) I don't see how the Packers don't draft another receiver project somewhere in the 2nd-4th rounds. I'll be highly surprised if they don't, and a little disappointed. As others have said Thompson puts a lot of value in the receiver position and has pretty consistently hit big on his picks.

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.
