Shanedorf Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Vegas492's breakout player, Robert Tonyan via PackersWire "Tonyan’s size, speed and flashes of receiving ability could make him a potential weapon in the passing game in 2019 and beyond. Learning how to do everything asked of a tight end is the next step " “It’s going to be a rep thing with him,” Outten said. “Obviously, he’s still learning the tight end position as far of putting your hand in the ground and the run game part of it. The great thing about him is he’s so eager and willing and asks questions all the time and wants to be good at it. If you’re willing and able, you have a chance. He’s been really, really good at watching video and understanding the practice notes I’m sending him and asking questions.” Tonyan spent the offseason working out with Pro Bowl tight end George Kittle, gaining size and advancing his education in the workings of the position. Classes continued in Green Bay during the offseason workout program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatJerkDave Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 19 hours ago, Joe said: that's another issue he has. Anyone remember Ramses Barden? I read this post and immediately think Ramses Barden... Ramses Barden was built like Robert Tonyan or Michael Clark. Barden: 6'6 227 Tonyan: 6'5 237 Clark: 6'6 217 Moore is a different kind of player. And I can't speak for Barden's drops, but Moore's are not because of the hands. Moore's issues are effort/concentration related. He had the same problem with drops in college, but fixed the issue. The problem is remedied by Moore putting in the effort he needs to, he would do well to take a page from MVS or EQ in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Size, speed, hands...and I think he has the brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the argument, but I'm speaking to the general inconsistency Moore has shown thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBobGray Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 We won't have any real idea what kind of player Moore is going to be until the pads go on in July. Of course that's true of basically everybody on the team to a certain extent, but Moore in particular is a player with so much potential variance it seems kind of pointless to discuss him like this. He needed a lot of growth, but it's relatively routine growth to a point and you should be able to have decent confidence he can learn a lot of the basics he was missing.

I read this post and immediately think Ramses Barden... He's clearly faster and more athletic than Barden was IMO. I'm not going to look up the numbers but I liked Barden a bunch and that feels pretty clear to me. I didn't even know anyone had an issue with his athleticism until whoever brought it up before you, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I’d love it if it was Trevor Davis. All the crap I’ve received over defending him on this site... You’d never hear the end of it if he had like 500 receiving yards this year and three big plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packer's have two area (my area) kids on team in Tonyan and Bulaga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got sidetracked with the comments about how athleticism and everything and didn't think past that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanedorf Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 this forum listed at least 18 different players as candidates for the breakout designation 18/53 is pretty amazing , lots of young ascending talent from Das Gute on both sides of the ball 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d never hear the end of it if he had like 500 receiving yards this year and three big plays. That would qualify him as a 'break out player?' Can you set the bar any lower for the break out player you are choosing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
