If there is one positive this season 'to date' and Packers....it's the play of Mr. Adams at WR. He has been just great tom watch.

Aaron Rodgers: I never lost faith in Davante Adams

Let's all remember that he isn't a leader. Not when they are losing anyway.
he's playing well. still want us to draft a wr #1. if a starter loses his job...so be it. Rodgers needs weapons.
Well Adams is getting old and TT likes to keep the team young.Quote:

Are you saying he is a great leader ??Quote:

so, lets say adams keeps playing like he has for the the last 2 or 3 weeks. next year is the last year of his rookie deal
we aren't keeping 3 highly paid WR's, either cobb or jordy will be playing their last year in green bay next season
they'll save just under 7 million in cap space by cutting jordy, and save a little over 6.2 million by cutting cobb
if tt, or whoever the gm is, doesn't get a wr with our #1 pick, in the interest of building the best possible team, will HAVE to keep ALL of them! the time for cost cutting needs to end. if we get a stud wr and someone has to go...it's cobb. jordy can go to the slot. he can be our cole beasley/julian edelman.Quote:

I agree. They will find a way to make it work in 2018, after which both Nelson and Cobb will be FAs.Quote:

I have felt that way, too. I have often felt that Rodgers does and says the things that books on leadership suggest should be done. I have written on here before that he spends too much time talking about being a leader, "A leader does this..." "As a leader, I...." In my dealings with real leaders on teams and in businesses, they do things naturally and automatically, and they never talk about being a leader, they just are.Quote:

he's probably 90-95% of his old self. next year he'll be back for real.Quote:
