One thing this offense needs is more speed.

I mean yeah, Davante can play. But he's no speed merchant. If your team is soft, like Mike's teams always are, you gotta have guys who can get deep. We don't have that anymore. Jordy can't run and Cobb has lost the short area quickness and change of direction that made him special.

Davante can be the #1, but then bring Monty back tto WR as the #2. He's an elite roite runner, and he can get deep. We need that right now. Drafting a guy will take two years, because he'll need his rookie hear to get up to speed.

As for the defense, we need pass rushers, plain and simple.

I have to tell you that I love an elite roite runner. Sure wish GB had a couple of em. Nothing says speed to burn like watching an elite roite runner doing his thing.

Speed? LOL. That has been a need for the past 10 years. I've harped on this over and over. The Packers have some weird obsession with "west coast WR's"... like them sturdy and middling speed. Cobb was a total departure for them but he isn't a WR1 type.

Janis is the WR1 type...yes, I'm aware, he didn't work out, but he and Charles Johnson had the athletic profile you need as a WR1, but we only bothered to attempt to fill that need with two 7th rounders. How about using a high pick on a guy like that?

Davante as a #1? Ooooh. I don't know about that idea. He's a nice complementary piece but not a guy you build your stable around.

Jordy should be gone. Cobb should be gone. The cupboard is very bare. Allison and Adams will be the only two left and neither can run.

This team has so so many needs. It's pretty incredible to try and even get a handle on what it needs most with OL issues, LB issues, pass rusher issues, CB issues, TE issues, WR issues, RB issues and backup QB issues. Ted should RUN from this mess he's made because he surely ain't going to be able to fix it in the mental shape he's in and one year on his contract.

Speed is key in today's NFL. We just don't prioritize it for some unknown rationale.

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."

Davante reminds me a bit of JJ. Never will be a #1, but a definite reliable guy who will help you move the chains, though at times will frustrate you with the easy drops.

Team needs Donald Driver back as WR coach.

Cobb is a fine #3, punt returner. Trevor Davis has the skills, needs to become a route runner.

Still think they should bulk jordy up, make him a TE. He can run for a TE, and they're already lining him up in the slot anyway. Pretty much how they're using him.

Having a QB that can hit the guy when he is open ( not throwing the ball 2 seconds AFTER he was open) is more important.
Rodgers can do that, Hundley (so far) has shown that he can't. The game is too fast for him.

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and
Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!
dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)
dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen
beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC
Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.
beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..
dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.
dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.
beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
