Packers give Chery a chance to return kicks, punts· Page 2

It really looked like you could've driven a Mack truck through that hole that Chery ran through on the punt return TD. But at the same time, there is something to be said for confidence. I bet he feels more confident than any of our other return men right now. And he does have speed. If he fields the ball cleanly against KC and shows any kind of burst, I bet he makes the roster ahead of Brett Swain.

As they say: "One can not teach natural speed."

With that in mind it will just be perfect practice and reps that this kid needs.

Trust me on this. As a Raider Fan I know. Just look back at DHB last year. This year he is going to show some real growth at softening his hands, and he already has so far at camp.

Honestly, i'de rather see someone like Jordy or Tramon back there for KR/PR duties over any of these young guys. They all look like project guys.

I prefer project guys over the starting cornerback any day of the week. I just don't want to see them get injured on special teams.

I can understand your thought process earthquake.

However, I love his guts and attitude about laying his gonads out there on the line, making an instant decision and turning on the after burners.

I would rather have that in a returner, than a guy with more moves than a Go Go Dancer, but does not make a commitment.

I think it's great that Chery had a run back in the game last week, and I think it's great that the coaches are giving him a chance to compete as a result, but I don't think there's a great chance that the coaches are going to rely on him as a returner this season and I think it would be unwise to do so. Pulling for him though, it would be great to have a halfway decent return game.

If Chery does a good job against KC, and Blackmon's injury keeps him out of the lineup, they might as well put Chery in there for the season opener and see what happens. Returner is a job where young players often make a big impact. I think Jordy Nelson and Brandon Jackson can do a decent job returning kickoffs, but aside from Blackmon, there are no real punt returners on the roster, and they don't want to throw one of their starting CBs back there.

Chery has more a chance to get a TD than Nelson or Jackson. Nelson or Jackson may get 50 yard returns, but they get tackled from behind. Chery is less likely to get tackled from behind.
