Go WMU :alumni:

KALAMAZOO IN DA HOUSE>>>>>Alumni also, but not a kool-aid alumni. Just a realist. Here is what you get from a MAC kid.1. Busts his butt.2. humble.3. Head on straight.So this year from Western, you have Jennings and Sheffler. Both 1st round picks from 2 organizations who are not crappy organizations. Why? One simple reason....You cant teach intangibles. You can coach raw talent into a polished product, but a good kid who doesnt puff puff pass or wear kevlar is at a premium right now.These are the kids you gamble on. And these are the kids who deserve it.Oh yea, what confrence produced the Super Bowl winning QB last year?MAC.Maybe I love it when good things happen to good people, but these kids are good people.

I prefer to call them the guys that, more likely than not, will fail due to lack of talent.

What would you like it to say? I'm assuming you used something like this: "The sleeper WR you want is..." forcing the reader to open your thread. Cute, but a pain in the tail if that was the case.

Exactly right, and that's why I edited it.Great thread, but the title needed just a little something extra.

Concede what point? Jennings has been everything the Packers had hoped for so far and outside observers agree. I didn't make any predictions on his fantasy impact this year. The point of the thread was Czar's observations and he feels Jennings may be the best rookie WR. That has nothing to do with the state of the Packers O-line or their WRs. Even if the Packers had the best WRs in the league, it would not change Czar's observation about Jennings.

Go back and read your own post. Czar's observations included comments that this was a great draft for two reasons: 1) 2 starters on the O-line, 2) Greg Jennings. THAT is what I commented on, not just Greg Jennings absolute performance level.Jennings looks good so far - against weak competition. The O-line starters - ditto. Why can't you recognize that the Packer draft - and perhaps Jennings - only look good because of weak competition?

In deep leagus Jennings makes a sneaky start as a WR4 tis week. One thing about the Bears is their pass defense is a tad suspect and Jennings should see a lot of balls come his way. I do not expect the pack to have much success running the football this week.

In my 14 team league, I'm putting him out there as my #3WR. The Bears will get thrown on.

So...do you still think Jennings has looked good because of weak competition?

I've been saying all preseason..Greg Jennings will be the best rookie WR this season. He will win the #2 job and he will do amazing.He is already wowing coaches. There's front page stories on him in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal... he knows the playbook and how to read defenses- one thing that slows WRs from making an impact their rookie year...When the worst thing a coach can say about him is that he should have cut harder on a route... that's saying a lot. There's not much bad about this guy. He's going to be something special

Good call!
