All that's missing is us trading up in the first for a guard and cutting Bulaga. Quenton Nelson is coming to Green Bay, I knew you would come around. LOL!

Leader Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Davon House did the Packers no favors in 2017... Couldn't rely on him in coverage, and couldn't rely on him to contribute in the run game/pursuit. Davon House - 658 snaps Jake Ryan - 507 snaps Kyler Fackrell - 447 snaps Not fast enough or skilled enough in their craft to compete in today's NFL, IMO. Not trying to be mean, but gotta be honest. A lot of snaps to replace. Edited February 25, 2018 by Leader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think the perspective is that any of the players are "terrible" - rather that none are playmaker / difference makers and as stated put stress on the remaining defense.

Not trying to be mean, but gotta be honest. A lot of snaps to replace. Ugh. Could not agree with this any more. As evidenced by Jacksonville cutting him loose and the tepid market for his services, House should have been counted on as a stopgap #4 CB, nothing more last year. I am already on record that Ryan's snaps will decrease more than any other returning defender. And that Fackrell was counted on to play a lot of snaps at OLB in 2017 should be a reminder to every Packer fan that while Dom certainly earned his walking papers (long ago), the previous GM bears a lot of responsibility for the crappy D as well.

Packerraymond Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I can't really think of a single game last year where I thought, man House is terrible. He's the definition of average. Last year he was better than both our safeties in my opinion. Could do a lot worse at CB, like Gunter, 2016 Randall, Rollins, Hawkins or Pipkins.

Fackrell, sure. House is pretty average like Ray said. I don't see Ryan putting stress on the rest of the defense, even if he's not a "playmaker." Fackrell sucks, I think we all know that. I thought it was weird he was grouped with Ryan. House with his injuries playing in fits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can match up on some, but not most. Edited February 26, 2018 by cannondale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
