Packers Select Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) Created this quick graphic (and just noticed the more in-depth chart above..well done on that btw) for my fellow visual learners. ILB scares me. Just a quick comparison to where we are at on defense post draft, compared to wk17 of last year. Mine just has notable depth and not comprehensive depth. I also only did a base 3-4, since we adjust so much and play nickel. Edited April 30, 2019 by Packers Select 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Just looking at some of these rosters, its clear some of you have not given any consideration as to who our kick/punt returners will be. I think Davis and Jamerson are the main guys with proven returning abilities. If its not these two then it falls to the only guy on the roster with returning experience, 36 years old Tramon Williams. Savage, Brown, Hollman, Redmond, Greene, Moore, Kumerow, Redding, Bibbs, Coleman, D.Williams, MVS, Anime, Ento, Brooks, Hamilton all literally had no returning experience in college. However its not all bad... we do have at least one tryout guy with returning experience, Devonte Williams. I bet he makes the training camp roster because of this skillset. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly not trying to sound......negative......but based on last years efforts? Anybody but Tramon. Hell - I'll go do it! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javien Hamilton was also a KR / PR at Jones County JUCO. Moreso his Freshman year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still not sold on Burks - still have memories of Bama running all over him. We're one Blake Martinez injury from that position being a big issue. I know Jones will be dropping down a lot too, but I'd feel a lot better if we had someone more proven/experienced in there. Would be more than glad to just take Morrison back, just for the sake of having a known commodity. Edited May 1, 2019 by chillparsi1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILB is much like RB...extremely easy to find replacement level street free agents. if that’s a team’s main roster concern, they’re in a fantastic place. Calm those tata’s Edited May 1, 2019 by n8ghee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Barring another low level move like Morrison, I think the ILB position and depth just go to show how much Pettine plans to be in a base defense. My only question would be short yardage or run heavy teams. Burks can't be the guy in those instances. He literally gets erased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depth behind our starters isn't filling with talent even with the UDFA in which we didnt get one saftey. He's also probably our current primary backup at ILB, another weak position.
