Yeah, so far... it's been harder to find ways that 7 WRs DON'T make the top 25 offensive players, then finding ways to fit 7 WRs in. I mean when you're looking at the 53 man roster, I guess you could always keep some extra DBs for ST coverage line Goodson and Evans... but they're not exactly exciting or have a ton of potential on the defensive side of the ball. Heck while WR Davis isn't in my top 7 WR, I could argue keep him for returner duties just to keep Cobb, Alexander, Williams, etc off punt return duty. Right now it's easier to find ways to put 7 WRs on than keep 7 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's nothing but true class. Gute still could have made the right call if Graham gives us a presence up the seam, Adams elevates his game, and one of the rookies becomes the next really good packers WR.

Arthur Penske Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Time for a bit of an unpopular opinion. done with Davis. His punt return abilities don’t overshadow the WR upside of the three rookies. Keep Adams, Cobb, Allison, MVS, EQ, Moore and cut Davis. Let Jiare, Cobb, Monty and MVS handle the punts and kickoffs . Profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had the awareness to stop once he caught the ball and the fluidity to spin and run the other way. That wiggle and fluidity after the catch was something that made guys like Jordy and Greg Jennings great receivers. On the other hand, there were a handful of plays where EQ seems to just go through the motions. MVS seems to have way more drive than EQ. Also, twice I've heard MM say how pleased he is with the rookie receiver's ability to get off of the ball. This is something that Davis really struggles with and one of the main reasons he doesn't see the field more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 8 minutes ago, Cheech said: There really aren't any super hard cuts to make this year even if 7 wide receivers are kept; No 4th TE; No 4th RB; No 10th OL I still think this group is just different. I extremely agree! And this group is different for a couple of different reasons I think it's the deepest group of WRs they've had The top guys aren't showing a high ceiling of talent Three of them are rookie draft picks that aren't currently ready but are flashing potential Two of the top three players are going into contract years; Cobb as an UFA and Allison as an RFA... so we might need that depth in just 16 games (plus playoffs) to fill losing two of the top three guys. This is a position I don't remember ever seeing the Packers in before, at least not at the WR position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley in 2011/2012 were generating a lot of TC buzz with a WR group of Jennings, Nelson, Driver, Jones, Cobb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One year we kept like 5 TEs. 7 WRs isnt insane when you realize Davis is basically just a return man who will be lucky to catch 5 passes as a WR. Except TEs offer value on ST that most of those WRs aren't going to. That's the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole Kumero hype is getting out of hand. He's competing with Geronimo Allison for that same roster spot, so it's either him or Allison. Take your pick.

Cadmus Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Trade Geronimo Allison to Indy for Erik Swoope. Cut Lance Kendricks. Profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the group think agenda here (very popular). If the three rookies keep popping their skill set and Kumerow keeps doing his thing, there's no room for Davis.

Jaegybomb Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 All the teams that know what they are doing went out and spent money on FA return guys when the new return rules were announced. Davis has value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
