Announcers said that Woodson has said good things about S.S., but man, if you hope to make a team as a back up, you have to play well on special teams - two fumbles on returns so far - I like SS - insane speed, can't coach that. But the guy has hands of stone, which I suppose why the packers are playing as a dback, not wr like his senior year in college - this
He's a project- a free agent converted WR at Miami to a CB. They like his speed and this year he'll probably just be a special teamer. They would like him to be able to return kicks(sparring Nelson and Blackman) but he has dropped too many so far.
Delhomme looked real good, 3 step drops, accurateGrant is out injured, hit to the head, announcers have said nothing since it happened, no feed back at half time, not sure if he just got his bell rung or what
Grant = Steve Slaton of 2009
fyi, green bay press gazette states that Nelson has the lead on Jones as the #3 WR
Press Gazette believes Porter will be the #3 rb. Not that means much to us ff geeks
He had a couple of nice run stops
has practice squad written all over him. I just don't see him making the opening day roster if he cant play special teams - I haven't seen him on special teams tonight other than return - no gunner, no coverage. Not sure he is big enough/strong enough to be a gunner. Sure is fast enough. If he has played dback, I have not heard his name called or seen him tonight.
Well, shields just had a great db play (of course he dropped the INT). But great position, got right in front of the receiver, and I mean better position on the ball than the WR
da nadaAnd I agree - the only issue is there are so many weapons that Rodgers is a great choice, but the others will have their stats cut compared to other teams which concentrate on fewer recieversAnd a 59 yard fg by Dawson - really nice kickNice Coverage here Smackdaddies.I'm looking forward to geting me some packer passing game in my draft this year.
Who said he can't play special teams?He was a special teams standout I believe in college and they liked that part of it...I think they know he can do the others, but they want to try and use his speed on the returns.He has supposedly impressed big time at DB in camp and will push Bush off the roster IMO.
announcers are all over shields for letting recievers off the line without any pressure. I just think shields doesn't have NFL strength yet to play bump and run
I can understand if you don't like Grant even if I disagree but he is nothing like Slaton because Grant has played well the past few seasons. I will never get the Grant hate all the guy does is produce and people take rookies and 2nd string players over him.
Have to agree - Grant has demonstrated ability to be a good RB over several seasons.
mmm, no, certainly not based on this game.
I doubt the coaches are basing decisions off of one game.Again, its my opinion, and part of it is a very low opinion of Bush.
Bush plays in 1st half, Shields in 2nd. Coaches have allready told us there opinion based on that fact
And your not reading enoughBush plays in 1st half, SS plays in secondBush knows the defense, SS doesntRookies who arent starters need to play good on special teams, SS does an imitation of Roberto Duran, twice. And SS is not big enough or strong enough to play any other position on special teams in the NFL. He is definately not strong enough to play bump and run coverage in the NFL.SS has great speed. He has just yet to show he can use that speed to be a good nfl player. He couldnt do it to show he was a good college player. Practice squad.Bush may be (is) a marginal dback in the pros. SS is not at that level yet to be even a marginal player.
