Assuming they can stay healthy, pre-season should at least be watchable with Janis, Abbrederis, and now Montgomery trying to wow the coaching staff. Janis was supposed to come on strong at the end of the pre-season last year but was only activated once I believe while Abbrederis unfortunately got hurt in Training Camp.

Looks like a good value pick. Also reading that he bulked up too much and might need to lose weight.

I like how these draft prospects add inches to their height ... nfl has em listed 6'0 - top of this thread lists 6'2 ...

Sounds like a good pick - just wondering about the injury.

would like a good return guy that can catch etc ...

Ted seems to like his multi-facet doodes

Another thing to remember is that outside of Cobb and Jordy early last year, we were really hurting as far as targets go. Or how about in 2013 that saw both James Jones and Cobb go down to injury (and that's not even including a pass catching TE like Finley)? For all of the hype around them, both Abby and Janis are question marks going into the year. Abby for his health and Janis and if his measurables translate against NFL defenses. Can't hurt to keep the WR train going.

I look at this guy as RB and PR.

He's gonna be the lightning to Eddie's thunder. Not sure what DuJuan did to get himself into the doghouse, but this staff seems to put guys there from time to time. So he doesn't get to be our designated "Sproles" guy. Ted just drafted a 3rd rounder to fit that bill.

If there is one position where Thompson has a stellar record at drafting, it is WR. While this is a pick that in no shape or form would I have made, and while IMO the jury is still out on all three of last year's WR picks, I'll still give him the benefit of the doubt on this one given his past record with Jennings, Jones, Nelson, Cobb.

FWIW (exactly nothing) -- who I would have taken instead, since still available at this pick:
Michael Bennett!! Way above on board. Plus need. Sorry, I cannot be comfortable with the Raji/Guion combo.
Paul Dawson!! Way above on board. Plus need. Not at all comfortable with the Barrington/Bradword combo either. And I dont want to move CM3 to ILB.
Marcus Hardison! Also well above Montgomery on my board.
Jay Ajayi Way above Montgomery on board
Rashad Greene Way above on the WR board.
Tre McBride Way above on the WR board
T J Clemmings well above on board, plus I still don't understand the love affair people have with Bahktiari.
Davis Tull. Above on board
Tre' Jackson. Above on board, and I want Lang to have competition.
La'El Collins See Jackson, and worth the risk in the late third.





And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Okay that's fun! I'll go with CB Rollins and that one undrafted LB whose name escapes me.

I wanna see the Pack run 5 receiver sets like they used to. In effect saying "our 4th and 5th receivers are better than your 4th, 5th and 6th DBs are". I always thought that was interesting.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : No time for talking! Back to work beast!
beast (23h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? 🥺 I think that means you missed more than half of them 😢
dfosterf (27-Mar) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (27-Mar) : Against tbd
dfosterf (27-Mar) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (27-Mar) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???

dfosterf (27-Mar) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (27-Mar) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Shouldn't be penalized cuz official screwed up
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
