Assuming they can stay healthy, pre-season should at least be watchable with Janis, Abbrederis, and now Montgomery trying to wow the coaching staff. Janis was supposed to come on strong at the end of the pre-season last year but was only activated once I believe while Abbrederis unfortunately got hurt in Training Camp.

Looks like a good value pick. Also reading that he bulked up too much and might need to lose weight.

I like how these draft prospects add inches to their height ... nfl has em listed 6'0 - top of this thread lists 6'2 ...

Sounds like a good pick - just wondering about the injury.

would like a good return guy that can catch etc ...

Ted seems to like his multi-facet doodes

Another thing to remember is that outside of Cobb and Jordy early last year, we were really hurting as far as targets go. Or how about in 2013 that saw both James Jones and Cobb go down to injury (and that's not even including a pass catching TE like Finley)? For all of the hype around them, both Abby and Janis are question marks going into the year. Abby for his health and Janis and if his measurables translate against NFL defenses. Can't hurt to keep the WR train going.

I look at this guy as RB and PR.

He's gonna be the lightning to Eddie's thunder. Not sure what DuJuan did to get himself into the doghouse, but this staff seems to put guys there from time to time. So he doesn't get to be our designated "Sproles" guy. Ted just drafted a 3rd rounder to fit that bill.

If there is one position where Thompson has a stellar record at drafting, it is WR. While this is a pick that in no shape or form would I have made, and while IMO the jury is still out on all three of last year's WR picks, I'll still give him the benefit of the doubt on this one given his past record with Jennings, Jones, Nelson, Cobb.

FWIW (exactly nothing) -- who I would have taken instead, since still available at this pick:
Michael Bennett!! Way above on board. Plus need. Sorry, I cannot be comfortable with the Raji/Guion combo.
Paul Dawson!! Way above on board. Plus need. Not at all comfortable with the Barrington/Bradword combo either. And I dont want to move CM3 to ILB.
Marcus Hardison! Also well above Montgomery on my board.
Jay Ajayi Way above Montgomery on board
Rashad Greene Way above on the WR board.
Tre McBride Way above on the WR board
T J Clemmings well above on board, plus I still don't understand the love affair people have with Bahktiari.
Davis Tull. Above on board
Tre' Jackson. Above on board, and I want Lang to have competition.
La'El Collins See Jackson, and worth the risk in the late third.





And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Okay that's fun! I'll go with CB Rollins and that one undrafted LB whose name escapes me.

I wanna see the Pack run 5 receiver sets like they used to. In effect saying "our 4th and 5th receivers are better than your 4th, 5th and 6th DBs are". I always thought that was interesting.

dfosterf (1h) : Sean Clifford would probably disagree
dfosterf (1h) : Canuck Cannon. Got a very good feeling about this
Zero2Cool (2h) : Tom Pelissero also reports what bboy stated
bboystyle (2h) : The Green Bay Packers on Monday signed Taylor Elgersma, the Canadian-born quarterback who tried out at the team’s rookie camp last weekend
beast (3h) : There were reports four days ago that the Packers were signing QB Taylor Elgersma, but no official action since
Zero2Cool (5h) : And for Ian Rapoport to announce Saints send 1st and 2nd rounder to Packers for Malik Willis.
dfosterf (5h) : *Elgersma*
dfosterf (5h) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB
Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.
dfosterf (11-May) : Fortunately it doesn't sound like a big deal
Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate
Zero2Cool (10-May) : Derek Carr retires. Shoulder must be bad.
Zero2Cool (10-May) : Packers Pro Shop is not currently printing Golden #22 jerseys “until his number is confirmed after Training Camp.”
greengold (9-May) : My impression is he's a Peruvian soccer fan not a bares fan.
Martha Careful (9-May) : Favored Illinois Bishop?
beast (9-May) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?
dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are
Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback
wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:
Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO
dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.
dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.
dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition
Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.
beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.
dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
