Well, my man Bob McGinn finally chimed in and he sees it like Wade and I see it:

If forced to take a premature position, my guess would be that the Packers won't gain much game-changing impact from their nine-man draft class this season and will realize only a modest amount when the final tally is made a decade from now.

For P2w... Bob's favorite guy appears to be Adams. And...for Dakota, he sure mentions 40 times a bunch. 🙂

As for Latimer... terrible QB play. Put him out in Fresno with David Carr and that offense and I'll bet you he would've outdone Adams numbers.

So, you think Adams would've posted those kind of numbers at IU? Indiana is a brutal football program.

You referenced comp percentage as one of your measures. Obviously, with the Badgers rushing attack, less TD's are going to be via the air.

yeah, as ONE of my measures. You don't just take one out and point to the other then say "see look the same". If you think 36TDs and 13 INTs with 60% is the same as 22TD and 13INTs with 60% then that's your problem but I don't think anyone else is going to buy it.

Hmmm. I thought I covered where the lack of passing TD's came from. Badgers are a run first team that, as you know, feature some pretty amazing RB's. Not sure what else you'd like me to say... Badgers didn't throw for TD's when they were down there because they could just run them in.

You've also dismissed the 1.7% comp differential and called it even. Badgers rushed for 35 TD's. IU rushed for 25.

I still haven't heard you tell me what you thought of the Badgers QB situation? Good? Better comp % than IU.

Would Davante Adams have lit it up at IU like he did at Fresno State? Still haven't gotten an answer on that one, either.

Cody Latimer averaged 2.1 yards more per reception than Adams. That's significant. Plays with lesser QB's and posts up better average per catch playing in a better conference.

Latimer catching from Manning and Adams from Rodgers should be pretty comparable year 1. Denver has Demaryius and Welker plus Julius Thomas... We have Nelson, Cobb and Boykin doesn't quite measure against Julius. Should be more opportunity for Davante to see the ball than Latimer but should be close enough to get a sense as to who the better WR is.

Nothing you have said has proved Indiana had "terrible QB play". You are just going off on irrelevant tangents.
