Arthur Penske Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I hope he was a packer fan before 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBPFan Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 The Lombardi era packers are leaving us one by one. The only one I ever got to meet is Bart Starr and I'm surprised he is still around given his recent health history. They were part of a legendary team and I'll miss them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same story: Only 20 players ranked in first round, wanted Ware, Spears, Pollack, Pacman but all gone. When they were on the clock Ted asked Andrew to call Rodgers' agent; Andrew accidentally called Rodgers instead. Put them on hold for 12 minutes waiting for trade offers, got none. Pulled the trigger. Draft party in atrium erupted in boos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked back and saw him projected rounds 3-5, and maybe there were some character/maturity flags. (He had a costly taunting call at one point, but I seem to that his actions weren’t that bad). He graded pretty high for UDFA in his first season. Edited April 14, 2019 by blueswedeshoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldve been comfortable with him in those late rounds without talking to the fella or all that. I just feel like his upside isnt all that. Dime kinda guy. Cb/S tweener. I thought I was pretty high on him during the draft period but some here seem to be higher than I am. Hes just not a real natural instinctual kind of CB. He just feels like Jalen Mills, Jarrett bush kinda guy to me. A scrappy guy but not a real natural. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for nothing, but Jarrett Bush was a helluva football player. In comparison to the spectrum of rarefied air that is talent in the NFL - he was wanting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad he's on the team and he's a good #3 imo. See if Jackson can beat him out this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. I wanted him at least in the 7th He spent a good deal of time in Saban’s doghouse. He got sent home from the Cotton Bowl for violation of team rules. He never could seem to get consistency. He’d get burned and then make a killer INT. He was a demon of a special teams gunner which I anticipate seeing more of for us. But his greatest asset is his world class speed. He ran a 10.12 in the 100. He’s got the tools to be a good one if he can put it all together. But we said that at Bama so... Edited April 15, 2019 by thrILL!

Leader Posted April 15, 2019 Author Share Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) “Everybody has a different path, a different journey, a different background on how they got to where we are, but can we come together as one, with everyone moving in the same direction? Are you willing to play for the guy next to you? “That relationship is critical, and it’s not necessarily because I’m the head coach—it’s because I’m the play-caller, you have to develop relationships with everyone in that building. But when it comes to Aaron, it’s so critical, because I’m the play-caller. And so anytime you’re the play-caller, you better have a relationship with that quarterback. I do believe this, and I’ve said it from Day One—it’s a partnership. And I’ll tell you what, I don’t care what’s been said, I’ve spent a week with him, and I’ve really enjoyed every second of it.” Matt LaFleur Edited April 15, 2019 by Leader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly hope those two can get on the same track and prove all the nay sayers wrong. If they can get the offense back on track combined with a defense who can be in the top half … it can be very good again.
