In Ted's presser he was asked about if the UDFA period is fun, in his response he mentioned that he had an analytic study conducted that concluded GB had twice as many snaps maned by UDFA's than the next nearest team over whatever period.

The Dolphins pulled down Jeff Luc, Mike Hull, and Zach Virgil. Quit bogarting all the good ILB Miami.
Do I get credit for Crockett?
This is great.
John Crockett

So blessed to be wearing the Green and Gold. Go PACK Go PACK!!!! Thank you Green Bay
For the record, I think Rajion Neal beats him out for a roster spot, but it's fun to see a Bison on the Packers.
That guy screams camp wonder that we try to sneak onto the PS and never helps our team. :^P
He means Crockett
No joke. I wonder if we even went after one of these guys. Every agent probably knows that Green Bay is looking for ILB's, so I wonder if any of them were contacted by the Packers. Geez, can't we bring in one guy who actually played ILB in college? Tavarus Dantzler definitely looks good setting the edge. I wonder if they are thinking about moving him inside?
He volunteered at Tennessee. I like Neal. I think Crockett is more like LaDarius Perkins, the other UDFA they had in camp in 2014, who did not stick.
He's nothing like Perkins playing wise. Perkins was short and quick. Crockett is a big back with a good all around game, but he's not as powerful as his size would suggest. His speed is decent for a bigger back, but probably not good enough to stick. He's got a little speed and a little wiggle. What would give him a chance is his third down capabilities. He's a solid receiver and willing in pass protection. Great character guy. Born leader. Got a little Mike Daniels in him.
From Maxie:
He's 6'2" 240 lbs. He says GB wants him to play ILB. His measureables are great. His idol is Clay Mathews.

He seems great in space.
It's interesting that the Packers see him as an ILB when his highlight reel looks like he's a great edge rusher who can play in space. What was your first impression?

Miami CB Ladarius Gunter to the #Packers - that might be old news but ..
Packer Report @PackerReport · 12h 12 hours ago
Stanford OLB James Vaughters wil join the #Packers as well. GB has quite the UDFA history at that position.
^older info, vince's info that he has multiple offers might still be correct
He wasn't even blocked most of the time off the edge, but maybe that's not too surprising because he wasn't blocked too often even when there was a man on him. Beast. At 233 he might be a bit small as an edge guy. It'll be interesting to see how he stacks up against the big boys.
