I am not thinking Bryant or Brown, I only mentioned as WR's I'm aware of who are available that can be signed who are good enough to be signed. It was more so to get them out of the way en route to the list of others not mentioned.

Michael Crabtree
Ryan Grant
Kelvin Benjamin
Pierre Garcon
Deonte Thompson
Bruce Ellington

These are the guys listed in the top 50 overall available FA's,
Names are familiar, that's about all I know.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Never had turf toe, but the recovery time mentioned appears not very definite. Wasn't there reports that Davante was possibly going to play last week and now he could be out 6 weeks? I want him to fully him recover, but worried if we start losing games because our young WRs can't step up. I would really like them to work out Jordy and see if there is even a tiny bit left in that tank. It would suck to cut a young WR to sign him though.

I would like to see Darius Shepherd to get more involved in the offense. Seems like a potential Cobb type of player.

They might as well stick with what they have. To bring in a guy now, by the time he would get up to speed, Adams will be back.
It’s time for the other WRs to step up and earn their pay.

Jordy has been and remains done. No thanks.

I do think that MVS and Allison have a lot of potential. The rest of the guys, they’re just question marks.

And while Gute has done a good job creating opportunities, once in a while no one steps up into the opportunity he creates like no one stepped up into the Safety opportunity he created last year... hell Josh Jones might of stepped down from it.

And I still wonder if some WRs (MVS) problem might be more gaining Rodgers trust, as he's got pretty good talent...

Jordy has been and remains done. No thanks.

Nelson might not be at his physical peak anymore, his connection with Rodgers is CLEARLY better than anyone got right now other than MAYBE Adams.

This system is known for making RB star players and more important to the team, which is why I wasn't going to be surprised if we draft a RB high some year.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
