---Worth a watch... 6'2 215...works the boundary, has great body control...great footwork on boundary...catches well...runs well...separates deep. Back shoulder in there as well...contested balls. Might do all the little things Janis doesn't at this point.

Speed is typical for what we're used to...4.5+ guy.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Looks like a solid prospect. The body control was particularly impressive to me.

That seemed to happen with this kid. Plus, he looks like he understands some nuances like in the clip of him (3:30 in) one on one with that defender who is just pissed he let Butler get him like that. A subtle push off...ever seen that before?

There is hope for this one.

I like the "go get it" receivers. When the ball is anywhere in their catch radius, they find a way to haul it in. Looks like he has that quality. Although his college stats don't wow you, he's certainly got as much of a right to be here as any of the other rookies. Let's see what the kid can do.

Any WR's stats are directly related to the QB's he played with. If one plays with the best, like A.Rodgers, then his performance level should elevate as a result. James Butler must learn plays, perfect pass routes , and get into sync with his QB's. He will have mush work to do.

I welcome Mr.Butler and wish him success !

^^^^^^^ Funny stuff. Like I said a few days ago...no situation would ever detail the difference in approach from Ted Thompson to Ron Wolf than this one. Ron Wolf adds Andre Rison...TT adds James Butler. 'nuff said.

Imagine that, a player who looks good in his highlight reel. You can probably take any WR that has played any significant time in college and cherry pick enough plays to make that exact same reel. He does remind me of someone. Someone to not get all excited about as he looks like so many other WRs at this stage of their career. A guy who could be good or a guy who could be out of a job in 2 weeks.

Packers sign this guy he could be a gem, anyone else signs him he's a JAG.

Contorts his body effortlessly while keeping balance. I think this kid has a shot. A good one...not to make the roster, but to be on PS. He came via a tryout. He had to be impressive.

His name is so ordinary. I remember thinking that about Aaron. Who is Aaron Rodgers anyway? He can never be any good with a name like Aaron Rodgers. That's what I remember saying... I don't know who I was back then... I've achieved perspective. Thanks Vic

Zero2Cool (20h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (20h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (20h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (20h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (21h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (21h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???

dfosterf (22h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

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
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
