Not to get off topic.

I am curious when a wr drafted by The Packers that was cut didn't end up on The Packers practice squad?

Davis is a 5th round pick.

Most teams would rather sign their players to their practice squad at the beginning of the year

The 7 all stay healthy, I'm betting Davis will be the last cut and will clear waivers then signed by The Packers to the practice squad.

Once he is there The Packers can pay him whatever it takes not to jump to another team.
Still not convinced Ty Montgomery will be ready for opening day.

These things always seem to work themselves out.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I think the Packers will think about keeping 7 WRs, but when it comes down to it... unless they can offer enough ST value then the numbers probably don't add up... of course Janis ST skills and the returning skills... but some others will need to be able to step up and play TE/FB role on STs as well which I just don't see.

If everyone is fully healthy, then I see Davis as the 7th guy as the others (should) know all the routes and what they're doing already (other than maybe Monty, but he has too much potential talent to straight cut).

I know you've been saying it is impossible that the Green Bay Packers keep seven wide receivers. I think it is possible and wouldn't be surprised to see it happen. I just don't know how anyone can say a team that kept 5 TE's is impossible to keep 7 WR's especially after what happened last season to the WR group. I think it is a possibility.

Keep all seven, and throw in some 5 wide out formations. Can you imagine sending a few of them in motion and getting Jordy on a 4th or 5th DB. I like the speed of Davis and Janis. Out of the 7, my least favorite is Adams.

Abby's a great route runner though. Mike values that. Aaron too.

Then again, they probly won't PS Davis, because of his speed.

I think with what happened last season, keeping as many as they can would be the smart move.
But that's just me.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
