He is no sure thing to make the final roster in 2011.

When I wrote that post, I did it with your message in mind. Also, like ZS says, Bush is a backup and it was the injuries in our secondary that put him on the field. He is a backup for a reason. And Hines did an incredible job of misdirecting on that play. I'm just saying that I wasn't real happy with that, and I doubt you or anybody else was either.

I like Bush as a ST player. I never cared for him as a CB. But he stepped up for one game.

I never understood why people hate particular players. I want them all to do well, it makes the team better.

Even guys like Justin Harrell, who is still technically on the team. If he pulls it together this year and playes well, I have no problem with him being on the team. I wouldn't expect it, but why look a gift horse in the mouth because you were disappointed.

As far as who I think is a good or bad player, I doubt I have the skill to assess player ability that Ted Thompson has. I also don't have a staff to do all the leg work for me and the time to devote to it. I do have a full time job. I know I couldn't do a credible job of it remotely and with the few hours a week I have to devote to it.

I have my guesses about who I think is good, but I know if I am right, it was a lucky guess. I think any fan making those guesses would have to be blind lucky to get it right.

I disagree, it isn't just 100% luck to tell if a player can be good or not. People who thought Bishop or Shields might be good players weren't just lucky by thinking that.

I was pretty pumped after I looked up both Shields and Starks on the day they were drafted. I still consider it a lucky guess to think they would be good players. There are way to many variables to have an amateur with out the resources of an NFL franchise to research the talent of a player. With all those resources, the people who do it for a living don't get it right rather frequently.

I would also say one of the best indicators is, does Ted Thompson like the guy. If he does, I would not bet against them. And he isn't always right either. Just look at Brohm.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

while Starks was drafted in the 6th Sam was not.

Signed by Green Bay as a non-drafted free agent on April 30, 2010...

I was pleased with the selection of Starks but had no opinion of Shields at all. Since he was fast I assumed he would return kicks. But this is off the subject of Bush,

Well, if he doesn't make the Packers roster I'm sure he'll end up on another team. He's too good at special teams to be unemployed.

Although the Hines Ward TD that he let up looked like a disaster where Bush didn't know left from right, his interception was a great read and catch, and he has been clutch on ST.

Because every cornerback could have covered that one perfectly, right? That play was more good from Hines than it was bad of Jarrett. Let's be realistic here. You can not expect your corners to cover until the sun comes up.

agreed completely with this. there was nothing anyone could do to stop that TD.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
