Notes: 4-3 Defensive End who sometimes plays inside according to draft profile. Missed 5 games, 2 of which were as a healthy scratch.

Other players are outperforming Gary so far but as was pointed out he is not playing a lot of downs. I personally had my eye on Oliver but he didn’t fall to the Packers. I was not sure about Sweat’s medical condition. He was a top 15 value and the 3rd best OLB on some boards who fell to #26 so there were a few teams who have a better vetting process than I do felt the same way.

I think it’s safe to say without the Smith “brothers” in front of him Gary would have had more opportunities and thus more production. A podcaster was saying his only move his to power rush the OT. He said he’s getting to the QB but he’s a step too late. If this is the case, once he develops another move or two he will be able to get to the QB a little quicker.

Perhaps....but Fackrell seems to get a lot more snaps that our first round pick. Thus far, unproductive and seemingly dinged up a large percentage of his plays...a disappointment IMO.

Fackrell is not a rookie and thus has no bearing at this time.

Fackrell also is not in his rookie year... Fackrell got 160 defensive snaps as a rookie. Gary got to 160 defensive snaps two games ago and it's still not the end of the season....

Also Fackrell plays an opposite role than Gary would... they need to keep Fackrell more clean out of the power game, and can use him in coverage as he's an 4-3 OLB playing 3-4 OLB.... they need to keep Gary out of coverage and can use him in the power game, as he's an 4-3 DE playing 3-4 OLB.

Though, I am a bit disappointed, that they haven't figure out ways to get Z. Smith and Gary in at the same time on 3rd down and clear passing downs, one at 3 tech DT and one at the edge (or maybe they have, and I just haven't noticed)

Sorry, I just don't buy the fact that a first round draft pick, and one who played multiple positions in college, can only play one position, in the pro's.

Given that he supposedly is a terrific athlete who runs a 4.58 40, he should be able to play multiple positions, including ILB or even with his hand on the ground inside, as he occasionally did in college.

If he is mentally incapable, as a full time football player, of only playing one role, then it was a horrific pick.

I get it.
Time to add Rashan Gary to the long list of 1st rnd busts since he hasn't started from day 1.

I just thought it was Ted Thompson who didn't know what he was doing.

I guess Gutekunst is as bad as Ted!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

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

But if one were to think Gary and Fackrell are the exact same style of player and should be used the exact same way, then that doesn't know what they're talking about. To maximum their abilities need to be used in different ways.

If you're going to judge players solely on their 40 times then you're not going to look very smart, because if 40 times all it took, we could get Jeff Janis to play be a probowl ILBer for the Packers.

Gary is a great athlete FOR HIS SIZE... not a great athlete period... and that's mainly when he's going forward in a straight direction. Gary struggles to turn... which is why he'll struggle in ILB coverage.... and have you seen him try to back pedal? No because he's small DL sized.

Gary should never be asked to play half the game in a coverage role... where that can potential be Fackrell strength is that he can drop back into coverage just as well as he can come forward but Fackrell struggles in the power game, where that Gary does great in the power game.

Two extremely different players, that should not be schemes to be used in the same way on an every play plan (of course you might do it once in a while, trying to catch the other team off guard and try to confuses them).

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.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
