Green Bay has a great young team. Outside of Driver it is tough to say who Favre is going to favor. I personally think that Jennings will be fine. Jones looks great now, but when the chips are on the table Favre will go to the guys that he has had the most experience with. That would be Driver, Lee, and Jennings.

I am beginning to think Jones is gonna be something special. Jennings a few week wonder last year? Jennings did look good family night I thought. But havn;t seen anything since. Korean will be back soon.
My feelings its gonna be
1. Driver
2. Jones
3. K. Robinson
4. Jennings
I am usually pretty good on guts. One thing for sure. Jennings is going way to hi my drafts
for my taste.

The first-team offense hasn't even been on the field for four total quarters in the preseason yet. It's far too soon to worry about Jennings. He was targeted in the end zone tonight and if defenses roll coverage toward Driver (which one would expect) there will be opportunities for him just as there were last season. If he gets the opportunities I believe he will take advantage. Now Jones looks to be the real deal and should be an upgrade (and possibly a huge one) for the No. 3 WR position so he could be involved. But if the Packers are forced to throw as much as I expect they will then there will be plenty of chances for Jennings to make an impact. All that being said, if Jennings is your WR2 then you should be worried because as much as I like him I don't view him as a WR2 yet. I think he's a strong WR4 and a solid WR3. You need to find a better WR2 than Jennings in my opinion.

First off, which of those WR's is Korean?
Secondly, you are willing to give Jones the #2 spot after two preseason games, but dont think Jennings is for real because he only did it for 6 weeks of the regular season?

Two WHOLE weeks ago!
The fact that someone can post that depth chart without a hint of irony tells you that Jennings is the guy to target right now in trades. And I mean NOW. Before another whole week of preseason passes!

Excellent point.Two WHOLE weeks ago!The fact that someone can post that depth chart without a hint of irony tells you that Jennings is the guy to target right now in trades. And I mean NOW. Before another whole week of preseason passes!
His ADP will drop also. He's no longer in the range of other WRs like Devery Henderson, Hackett, Glenn, Brandon Marshall, etc. He's now in the range of Kevin Curtis, Muhsin Muhammad, Eddie Kennison and Joe Horn. I would not be surprised to see his ADP take a 10-spot dive.I wouldn't worry yet. However, it's not like he's been on the Pack for 7 years and Jones has no shot at replacing him. Some of the reactions are too much in favor of Jennings IMO.
He's no pro bowler, he doesn't stay healthy. He did look very good as a rook.
And the stuff about Favre preferring guys is nonsense, he'll sling it to whomever

Come on. Last pre season Jennings put on a show to become the #2. Now that he is Jones is doing the same and moving up(#3 now).It's preseason and only the second game. Jones will be the #3 and Koren (if he comes back) will mostly return kicks as he did in Minnesota. Jones will play the slot.
He he won't. He'll sling it to people he trusts. He stopped going to Ferguson when he dropped balls. He will go back when no one else is open but prefers to win games.

A Greg Jennings worry topic, thats funny, are u relying on him that much. Driver is the only one worth mentioning in GB, Jennings is a decent 3+ WR thats about it

Green Bay - Just a year ago, Greg Jennings captured the fancy of the Oneida St. faithful like few other Green Bay Packers rookies have in recent years, vaulting up the depth chart with every catch and run until the coaches had no choice but to start him in the season opener.
Greg Jennings wants a more prominent role in the offense
Now, 22 days before the start of the 2007 regular season, Jennings is close to being listed with the missing person's bureau.
Once the golden child in the Packers' offense, the former second-round pick lines up with the No. 1 offense opposite Donald Driver, but often looks like just another guy trying to make the roster. You don't need more than one hand to count the number of memorable plays Jennings has made in practice and the first exhibition game.
Has he slipped that far in just 12 months?
"I think part of it is, with so many guys to evaluate and so many guys to get a feel for where they're at and what kind of contribution they're going to make to the ballclub, we haven't isolated Greg," offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said. "We have information on Greg. I think we know what he's about."
Not being isolated is not exactly how Jennings would describe it. He would call it being ignored. Almost since the first day of camp, Jennings has been the split end in three-receiver sets, which in the West Coast offense is the playground equivalent of being told over and over again to just go deep and get out of the way.
The coaches have replaced Jennings on the front side of those formations with promising rookie James Jones, who is being given a crash course on the offense so he can be ready for the season opener. The split end, or "X" position, is far easier to learn, but the Packers want to make sure Jones knows the most difficult spot first so he can be a bigger part of the offense.
Jennings was that guy last year, although he was so far ahead of a typical rookie that he was able to learn all three positions. Even though he understands what's going on, he isn't exactly thrilled with it.
"You can't be bitter," Jennings said. "You try to make the best out of it. At the same time, I'm a perfectionist. I'm one of those guys, I want the ball. I don't want to make it a big ordeal because it's not just about that. But it sits in the back of your mind because that's how players fall through those cracks."
Jennings started to lose his footing last year when a sprained ankle, suffered against Miami in Week 6, robbed him of his elusiveness. He caught 20 passes for 364 yards (18.2 average) and three touchdowns in the first five games, but couldn't get back to full health until the final weeks of the season.
Coming back this year, Jennings wanted to pick up where he left off heading into the Miami game and work on some of the timing aspects of being one of Brett Favre's receivers. He has had opportunities to be a playmaker when lined up in two-receiver sets with Driver, but a lot of what the Packers do in the passing game is with three receivers.
Jennings has fallen into the lost world that Robert Ferguson used to complain about when he was the starting split end.
"I told him, 'I see how you didn't progress (as a receiver) at the X position,' " Jennings said. "It's tough. If you don't have a slot receiver on your inside, you're last in the progression 90% of the time. There's a tight end, slot and flanker on the other side. You have three different options over there and just one back here."
Jennings pointed to a Thursday morning practice as a typical day at split end: He said he ran about 10 plays at that position and not a single ball was thrown his way. He lined up as the flanker once and the ball was thrown to him
Against Pittsburgh last Saturday night, Jennings did not catch a pass. The lone ball thrown his way actually came when he was lined up as the split end on a second-and-16 play midway through the first quarter. He ran a slant route and was open enough to probably get the first down and more, but Favre badly overthrew him.
"It's easier to joke about it than complain about it," said Jennings, who recently talked to receivers coach Jimmy Robinson about his role. "Driver was in at the X the other day in 2-minute and he's, like, 'I'm not going back to X.' It's tough, man. It's like you're almost just out there."
The most frustrating part for Jennings is that he wants to improve on his rookie season totals of 45 catches for 632 yards and three touchdowns, but he thinks he needs to be used at the other receiver positions. When he played out of two-receiver sets in the intrasquad scrimmage at Lambeau Field, he caught three passes for 25 yards on his first series and one for 7 on his other series.
If there's a developing chemistry between Jennings and Favre, it's not evident in practice. Driver will he his first option no matter what, but part of what got Favre in trouble last year was relying on Driver too much.
To that end, the Packers want Jennings to be savvier with his route-running and less mechanical. He knows all the plays and can run the routes just as they're drawn up, but he needs more work setting up cornerbacks and finding holes in zone defenses.
Whether all the work at split end is stunting his growth as a receiver or Jennings just isn't performing up to the level he did last year is up for debate. He would like to settle things on the field, if they would let him.
"I look at it like if I do my job, it'll come back," Jennings said. "I don't want to focus on it. You have to get your work done and make the best of it."

You're wacky. Until his injury he was on a 1100 yd 10 TD pace. That's top 10-12.Driver had defenders draping all over him last year. With 2 more viable receivers they will all do well. Jones is the crossing pattern YAC guy. No need for Jennings to stand out this preseason. They know what he can do.In 04 Driver(1208) and Javon(1382) both did well. It's the #######g pre season. Relax.

I agree not to worry. Not to get off topic, but people in other topics are making Brandon Jackson out to be a great back already. The Packers will be throwing this year......a lot. There will be plenty of yardage out there for all 3 GB WR, so if other owners panic, just sit back, take Jennings a couple rounds later (or hang tight if you have him already) and enjoy the ride. The Packers know about Jennings already, which was mentioned in the above article. I don't know about him being a #2 fantasy WR, but I'd take him as a #3 or 4.
I'm not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing here.
So Ferguson is one out of how many in his career? Plus you said he'd go back when no one was open.(Figuratively)List the different WRs Favre has had as key WRs since he's been there, it's been a good amount at the X, Y, and Z position. Favre's been the one constant on that team IMO and the crystal clear reason why they've always been competitive. At minimum you've got 3 different players at any other position like Edgar, Dorsey, Green or Jackson, Chmura, Franks or Sharpe, Freeman, Driver. That doesn't even bring up Mayes, Jennings, Najeh, Gado, Lee or Martin at TE etc. I don't think he could have done all that he's done if he picked favorites

I see Mark Clayton revisted. Except Clayton did it entire rookie year while Jennings did it 5 games his rookie year. What has Clayton done since? I don't own Jennings for a reason. Reason is he burned me most of last year and probably will this year. I continue to watch Jennings go 5th to 7th round and sit back and grab Jones 16th 17th round/ That is why I beat you guys every year!

Despite all the talk from the front office and the coaching staff about establishing the run, McCarthy likes to sling it. Just watch his New Orleans teams or any Packer game from last year. He gets away from the run faster than any play caller not named June Jones. Jennings will get plenty of targets.

Its not favorites. Its whether or not they are where their supposed to be and they catch the ball. A lot of throws are based on timing and if the WR runs the wrong route you have an interception. Also, if they drop too many balls on 3rd down, expecially in the end zone your going to start to avoid them. For a long time Peyton Manning threw only to Marvin Harrison.For some reason Brett and Rogers are avoiding Jennings right now. Jennings says its the X. Well the X isn't having a problem in Detroit and Indi. It got to be something else. If he does catch any ball next week then I would be worried.
Aaronstory
Footballguy
Detroit and Indy don't run anywhere near the same offense. Plus, even Driver said "I'm not going back to 'x'" It's a product of the system, but as I said above, McCarthy throws for days and will get Jennings involved. So far this preseason, they've run nothing but the same 6 plays out of different formations. The drag route Jones scored on last night is a perfect example. He ran that same route last week against PIT. They are running a skeleton version of what you'll see in Week One. Jennings will get targets, it's up to him to make the most of them early, or Favre will indeed start looking elsewhere.
Birdie048
Footballguy
Simply from a non-Jennings owner perspective, I see preseason as a chance for the "new, young" players to get a chance to show why they should be on the roster. J Jones has clearly demonstrated his value and climbed into the #3 spot. Jennings is still #2 and Driver solid on #1.
BUT, with Driver and Jennings recovering from injuries, Jones has moved into the spotlight and taken advantage of the opportunity. He is still a project and developing into a support role.
GB clearly likes what they see. He has good potential and a nice future if he continues to show this ability.
Jennings will still be a solid WR on GB and a good WR4 or a reach at WR3. If you are depending on him as WR2, you are hurting. He might suprise, but you gambled too much IMO.

Which is also why you avoid #4 rookie WR's like Jones.Once the Korean comes back, it will be driver, jennings, koren then jones.I picked up troy williamson late in the draft as an upside gamble...thinking now maybe I should swap him for jones as insurance for jennings.
packersfan
Footballguy
I'll repeat what I said earlier - the first-team offense hasn't even had four total quarters of combined work yet. And despite that, Jennings still has been targeted in the end zone by Favre (on a pass last night which was off target). So in less than a game's work, Jennings has had at least one target in the end zone. Jones is the New Kid in Town and he's getting a lot of love. That's great but when the season begins the Packers will likely have to throw a lot and it's not like Favre has a lot of options. The TEs are worthless and there is precious little quality depth at WR. It's Driver, Jennings and quite probably Jones (who has made a believer out of me just like Jennings did last summer). That's it. Defenses will roll coverage toward Driver because he's the clear No. 1. That will open things up for Jennings and Jones. If a number of passes start going in Jones' direction, that will get defense's attention which will open things up for Jennings. It's a process and as long as Jennings stays healthy and stays on the field he'll be involved. Of all the things that worry me about this team - and there aren't enough minutes in the day for me to go through that list - Jennings' involvement in the passing game this season isn't one of them.Just my two cents.

good stuff as always packersfan. I drafted Jennings with confidence yesterday based in large part upon your observations. Here's hoping your instincts re: Jennings are better than your NBA leanings.
My NBA instincts are strong Tommy but that's an FFA discussion.Back to Jennings, it all depends on how you view him. I like him as a strong WR4 and decent WR3 if your other two WRs are top-notch. I don't have much faith in the Packers' running game this season so I expect Favre will be airing it out a lot again. If that's the case, there will be plenty of targets for Jennings as long as he's on the field. The sheer number of passes that will be thrown would dictate that. The key with Jennings is proving he can stay healthy. If he can, he'll be involved and if he's involved I believe he will be productive.

I think Jones runs a great slant route, but he's a bit raw on the edge. IMO, that translates to him being the ideal slot receiver for this team so I don't think he'll cut into Jennings' playing time. In terms of competition for targets, don't right off Franks just yet. He looks like he is in great shape having lost some weight. I thought he performed better the other night than I've seen him play in quite a while.BTW, defenses have been rolling to Driver since Javon Walker jumped ship. That hasn't stopped him from being the focus of Favre's attention. I don't suspect that will change until Favre believes he can fully trust some of the young guys to make plays.
packersfan
Footballguy
I agree. Driver will continue to produce and continue to be an under-rated fantasy WR. He can flat out play and like you said Favre trusts him without question. And as the lead receiver in this offense he'll continue to see plenty of passes regardless of what the defense does. McCarthy will find ways to get the ball to Driver given how he's by far the best receiver on the team.

I am a Jennings owner in a number of leagues and I think this is a great posting, I also think it gels with what I read/read between the lines in that story posted previously, Jennings might not be 100% happy with less attention but he is a team player and this will sort itself out once the regular season starts.http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=648767

Both Jones and Jennings are very talented wide receivers that should help the Packers offense for many years. DD will clearly get the most targets in 07, but Jones and Jennings will have plenty of balls thrown their way; Favre knows how to spread the ball around. If Jennings is healthy, the emergence of Jones shouldn't be a problem. Jennings was explosive at the beginning of last year and his game was about catching short passes and breaking them for long gains. I don't think his skills have diminished and Favre will look for Jennings big play ability at least 4-5 times a game. I would not feel comfortable with Jennings as my WR2 and think he might be slightly overvalued right now, but I would grab him in later rounds as my WR3. Jones should be scooped up in Dynasty leagues. Both have nice upside.

Scientific Football -- a site run by former scout KC Joyner, which analyzes players based on scouting metrics and concentrates on the passing game -- calls Greg Jennings the year's "biggest bust candidate."
He says "Jennings had a 75-yard TD reception which was against Jon McGraw of the Lions. If that one play against the weakest CB in the NFL were eliminated from jennings' metrics, his Yards per Attempt would drop from [an already awful] 6.2 yards to a horrendous 5.5 yards.
Jennings' matchups are somewhat favorable, but jennings still hasn't proven himself as a WR. I can easily see him disappearing against B-level CBs and I have trouble seeing him beating C-level competition with any great frequency."
he continues to say "Jennings will be the most overrated player in just about every draft room. He'll go as a Top 40 WR and won't be worth the pick. If he falls to become a WR6, consider taking him, but even be prepared to take a loss on him at that point."
Harsh words.

From today's Camp Report regarding last night's practice -
Receiver Greg Jennings' complaint about being left out of the offense must have been heard because quarterback Brett Favre hit him with several passes during team and seven-on-seven drills. Jennings looked good on the receptions, including a rocket he snared between two defenders.

Agreed. Too many people think in terms of Madden, where you just plug a guy in and go - he hasn't played football in a year. It will take time to get back into playing shape, not to mention get his timing down - add to that, I think Jones, Martin and Holiday will be getting better and better the whole time.I wouldn't mind seeing him on kick return, but that's about it.I don't think the Korean ends up in the top 4 all year.
now that is what I want to hear!!!!

Martin and Holliday have looked pretty good so far.Agree with your last line...funny because it is what I said when they signed him too. I only thought it was good for the return game. Plus, he still has to be reinstated by the league, and prove he is in the shape to play football...and stay off the sauce.
