Leader Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 "In his 12 games last season, House gave up three touchdown passes and tied with Randall for most passes of 20 or more yards allowed with five. He finished with four missed tackles, which was the second-fewest of any of the team’s defensive backs who played at least 15 percent of the defensive snaps. Despite his injuries, House never missed more than two games in a row and played two weeks after breaking the transverse process in his back against the Cleveland Browns. With nothing to gain in the season finale and plenty of reason to play it safe, House returned against the Detroit Lions after re-injuring his shoulder. The 28-year-old House started 12 games last season and played 62.7 percent of the defensive snaps, second only to Damarious Randall’s 68.7 percent. House fought through hamstring, thigh, back and shoulder injuries during his return to the Packers after spending two seasons in Jacksonville, but was a first-teamer when healthy" https://www.packersnews.com/story/sports/nfl/packers/2018/04/12/cornerback-davon-house-agrees-one-year-deal-return-packers/483864002/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know why I think that.....but I do! Probably not. So now House cannot go forward with his evil plan. Davis was framed!!!! Free Davis! It was House all along! At least he is in Hawai'i though.

He is always injured. He obviously likes GB, which is a plus. I think, and this is one of the most monumental IF's that we can if, IF he can stay healthy he will be a positive starter. He won't be 2009 Darrelle Revis, but is that what the expectations are? I expect him to be somewhere between good and average. If we get a better pass rush, and that is more than fine.

Lodestar Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I'm quite happy with this signing. At the very least, House is serviceable depth for a team lacking bodies at corner. At best, he's a good fit for Pettine's defense and reminds us why a lot of people (myself included) were excited when we brought him back last offseason. Remember he's only 28 (turning 29 this summer). Of course this does not preclude us from drafting a corner, and there's also the possibility that one of our youngsters like Pipkins relegates House to the bench or street.

We'll have to agree to disagree. I don't think House is just going to suddenly become more athletic. He couldn't run with WRs last year so I have trouble believing that he'll suddenly be capable of this this season. There is a reason not a team in the league will touch him. For the second year in a row he's likely picking the Packers over his couch. Pick your poison though. If Pettine uses press man, Williams will not be fine. He's bordered on terrible when he isn't able to afford the guy across from him 10 or 15 yards. I don't understand that because Williams is now a Packer that fans will just up and ignore the vast majority of his play in the last 4 years. His success last year was 100% the result of the scheme.

packfanfb Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I'm definitely okay with this assuming he didn't get over $1.5mil or so. To me, hes just a body at this point but better insurance vs some UDFA. Does nothing to change my mind about adding DRC or Breeland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its crazy how the second a player becomes a Packer past seasons are completely ignored. Its like chose to believe that Tramon Williams never played football in Cleveland. I stand by my comment. At his advanced age, I don't believe Tramon Williams to be a good athlete when compared to his peers. He's gonna need a 10 or 15 yard cushion if we're going to expect to have the same success Arizona did with him last year. I don't believe he's capable of lining up, playing press man and running with most WRs anymore with any sort of consistency. He was terrible at it in his last year in GB and his time in Cleveland.

He's also a great guy. But he's a No. 4 CB. I hope GB treats him as such. We still need a true No. 2 guy IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packerraymond Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Glad we resigned House. He's alive and plays corner so he fits my two biggest wants this off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman5252 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 He isn't great, but is an okay body. We need those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packerraymond Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Now we can draft a CB or two and be good, and if the board doesn't give us one early we can take some late flyers and look at DRC or Breeland later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
