Shanedorf Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) From PackersWire "A reporter even acknowledged that Josh Jackson appeared to “look bigger” than he was at the end of last year. “Oh yeah. A lot bigger, for sure – 196 (pounds),” Jackson responded. “I’ve just tried to focus on my strength and conditioning and just working on self-improvement.” Jackson started out OTAs as the Packers nickel cornerback, a spot he struggled at occasionally last year. With the Packers not having a dedicated slot corner, Jackson could be in line to see significant time there this season" Edited May 23, 2019 by Shanedorf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been something I'm trying to avoid doing and have been for a while. I'll fully admit to still using "kids" when I'm talking about a group of younger players, and I should stop doing that as well. I'll be honest, it kinda rubs me the wrong way even when a guy like Tramon does it (though I think it's in no way said maliciously). It seems like it gives off this vibe of superiority and I think it's starting to bother some of the younger guys (or of the younger generation to phrase it differently). It implies they're not as valid of players or teammates until they've been in the league for a few years and I think that's absolute bull**** with the direction the league is going.

I laughed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 Spotrac currently lists the GBPs as 27th in the league regards 2020 CAP space with 54 players signed - but - they're the first team listed in the red. Not sure how many players are going to be coming off the books next year - but there's not a whole bunch of "older" veteran contracts on the roster anymore. The CM's, Cobbs, Perry et al have all been rotated out. Graham is probably gonna be gone and I doubt Daniels is resigned. I think we're entering a few years of limited spending / tight money.

Cutting/Restructure Linsley saves $8.5 million Cutting Graham saves $8 million Cutting Lane Taylor saves $4.7 million Clark will likely have a different cap hit in 2020 - TBD (currently $9.5 million) And then it's also the final year in the current CBA so things could get wonky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham? The groundwork's laid for them to move on from him next year. Daniels? Probably on his way out. 2019 will tell how much production we'd be losing. 2018 wasnt such a good indicator. Linsley & Taylor? Fairly consistent producers. All Pros? No. Replaceable? Probably. Nice to have around cause they're pretty good at what they do? Yeah, I think so. We may be entering a Russ Ball Renaissance Period when collars (read: budgets) are getting a bit tight - putting the number crunchers in heaven.

AlNFL19 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 @AlexGreen#20 Just tested AV against Draft Position with a cubic regression equation. It's correlated better, but it's really not worth the hassle IMO. It's only correlated 0.01 better than a linear equation. Pretty surprising, actually.
