Wow, Cory. No mention of Raijon Neal looking over his shoulder? It's a little early to move him up to #2 on the depth chart. 😲

I think he has as good a chance to make the team as any UDFA but we have a whole summer ahead of us.

North Dakota State running back John Crockett made a great choice by picking the Packers as an undrafted rookie free agent. And no, it’s not because he doesn’t immediately need a new wardrobe since the yellow and green of the Bison are eerily similar to the green and gold of the Packers. “I really truly [...]

DRAFT PROFILE 



Strengths
Played in pro-style attack. Patient runner. Has feel for the hole and a sense of timing on when to burst. High school high-jumper. Has hip explosion and enough suddenness to shake a downhill safety and long speed to finish with a big play. Impressive feet that jump cut, side step and reset with ease. Can make tight moves. Proved to be dangerous out of the backfield. Consistent production while playing for a consistent winner. Tenacious, with strong desire to succeed. Big personality with loads of confidence.
Weaknesses
Runs upright through the hole. Play strength below average for listed weight. Doesn't generate power in legs and fails to break many tackles. Willing blocker but struggles to anchor in pass protection. Pad level and lack of strong base could cause him to take bigger hits than most runners. Worked hard in 2014 -- coming off of a 398-touch season in 16 starts.



4.62 40 time. Not too bad.

Sounds like he's got some vision, doesn't run into his own blockers. Knows how to let the hole open and how to hit it, but doesn't have a ton of natural lower body strength.

Sounds like a solid "third down" type guy.

Bottom Line
Patient, pro-style runner with the potential to be a full-time backup and play on all three downs if asked. Play strength is below average for the position, but he's a creative runner who can find yards on his own and catch the ball out of the backfield.

Steven Jackson hopes to land job with winning team 

“I don’t want to go to a team that is rebuilding and needs me to come on and teach guys how to be professional,” Jackson said, via Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. “I’ve done that. I’ve been more than vocal about wanting to help young guys, but at some point I have to be a little selfish. I want to be part of a winning team because when I do hang up my cleats, I can see a lot of people holding that over my head when a lot of it was out of my control.”



Make him a deal, Ted!
