Who needs Jordy when you have Ally? šŸ˜
I've been hoping Allison will step it up.

When the Green Bay Packers released veteran wide receiver Jordy Nelson, all eyes immediately shifted to the sudden lack of depth at the position.

There was still emerging superstar Davonte Adams, but behind him was Randall Cobb who had strong seasons before but whose performance had fallen off in recent years. After those two, the cupboard was pretty bare until the Packers added three rookies in the draft.

While there now may be enough bodies, thereā€™s still a lack of experience. Thatā€™s where Geronimo Allison comes in. He may be entering ā€œonlyā€ his third year and was an undrafted free agent, but Allison enters training camp as number three on the wide receiver depth chart.

Allison showed flashes as a rookie before struggling in his sophomore season. Heā€™ll have to show something in preseason or he will risk being overtaken by one of of three rookies, though history is not on any of the three drafteesā€™ side.

Allison will have to continue to grow whilst battling for a job. Such is life for many third year NFL players. Can he succeed simultaneously at both? Weā€™ll know in just under two months.

Thereā€™s more on Allison plus the Packers announce plans for the opening weekend of their 100th season in todayā€™s cheese curds.

Monty is #2, Cobb #3, Gmo #4. But he needs to make the team.
