Romeo Doubs finally met his match. In pair of 1-on-1s vs Jaire Alexander, Doubs didn’t have a catch. Alexander let the #Packers rookie hear it, too. After smothering him on an out for a PBU, Doubs got behind Alexander but dropped a pass. Alexander told Doubs it was OPI.

Romeo Doubs has plenty of company with NFL WRs that Jaire Alexander had blanketed. In Doubs’ lone rep not against Alexander, he burnt safety Tariq Carpenter for a deep ball down the left sideline. Only the All-Pro Alexander has been able to cover him in camp.

Jaire Alexander didn’t allow catch in 4 1-on-1 reps. Forced incompletion deep vs Allen Lazard, and has great rep vs Sammy Watkins on slant. Alexander jammed Watkins at the LOS and dropped an Aaron Rodgers pick. He’s looked like himself this camp after shoulder injury last season.

Eric Stokes has given up some catches in camp, but he showed why he was such a tough cover as rookie jamming Sammy Watkins at LOS. Had Watkins so out of sorts, he forced drop on slant. Stokes also covered good stutter-go route vs Watkins. Impressive blend of speed and toughness.



Jaire shutting up the kid, haha.

Wow. Alexander is one of the best, so losing a battle to him isn't that big of a deal.
Romeo will learn a lot going up against one of the best in the NFL.

Though Aaron Rodgers does talk with the CBs, picking their brain both for himself and the WRs and talks with Doubs and some reports Rodgers has been talking with Doubs a lot more than any other rookie I've heard about...

Of course, out WR depth seems a lot worse than ever under Rodgers and so rookies are getting more top reps by default, but also sounds like Doub is making the most of them.

After Romeo Doubs kept cooking other Packers CBs, Jaire Alexander stepped in.

He thought the rookie WR was too comfortable.

“I wanted to challenge him … I’m gonna talk some junk. But afterward, I let ’em know like, ‘Hey, we gonna need you.’”



Another good bit.

So it takes an All-Pro corner who's top 5 at his position to stop Doubs?* Then I'd say Doubs is gonna have a good rookie year.

*Or Douglas and Stokes have regressed horribly.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)
Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird
