JBURGE Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Just now, Pack-ManJones said: What would you all say to an Josh Jones & 7th for Kiko Alonzo trade He'll make about $6.5m this year and have no dead cap. I'm not exactly against it, but Kiko is kind of a scummy dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donzo Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 It's over... He was cut. https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2019/08/25/packers-releasing-third-year-s-josh-jones/ With other less-heralded players stepping up, this isn't as bad as it could have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheech Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 That 2017 draft is starting to look a lot like the rest of Ted's "2nd half" drafts. Woof. Aaron Jones and hopefully Adams take the sting out of the "what if..." If King doesn't find a way to stay healthy I'd be OK with labeling this one a bust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so eager to be hypercritical of a great Packer... Enjoy. If King never plays another down, but Jones, Adams and Williams play well. The 2017 draft wouldn't be a bust for the Packers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if only Williams and Jones play well, it's still a decent draft. edit: Just read the article linked above. Glad we're taking Raven Greene seriously; he made some pretty good plays down the stretch last year despite the fact it was garbage time.

Golfman Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 It seems apparent this kid was not an NFL safety, in spite of his athleticism. What do all of you think his future lies? Pretty apparent he did not want to play LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay.....I'll say it: Even if just Jones.....or Williams plays well (or visa versa.....) then the draft would be - passable. Not quite "decent" - but approaching decent - getting really, really close to being decent - but it just cant get there...entirely 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be very thin with just two quality players just three years after the draft. So I think calling that decent would be generous, but it certainly wouldn't be a bust class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 10 picks in that draft. If King, Adams and Jones pan out we had a very good draft. I think that is possible and barring injury something we could expect. J. Williams is just a JAG and that's OK if he plays 4 years for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a TT hater, and if we're being honest Ted's last 4-5 drafts left a lot to be desired. He'll always be good in my book for all the fine work he did, including drafting Rodgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean......I tried really hard to be humorous. Not "slap your knee as you contort with laughter funny" but I really did try. That really was my intent. Apparently I failed. Which is good in one way: it reinforces my decision to turn down a career as a stand up comic. Just couldnt convince myself I'd be able to pull it off....and apparently, I was right.

I just commented on how eager he was to hit the TT hate and get hypercritical of the 2017 draft immediately after the Packers cut Jones.
