    There are enough guys out there that post player highlight/evaluation videos that it doesn't take long to grease thru them.

    Voch Lombardi posts a lot of tape that is already broken down... our own Quality Control if you will.

    As for looking at specific players - I count on guys in here and other sources to get me to look at someone who might be buried in the prospect rankings. Other things I look at, are the measurables - if an OT has 31 inch arms, what's the point of looking at his film?? If a CB can only run 4.7, again, no point in looking at his film.

    Copy that.

    My issue with highlight reels is they are highlight reels. I like the vids that show an entire game so I can see their play in a broader context.

    When I'm looking at a prospect, I'll look at his 40 time and ht/wt just to give some context to what I'm seeing on film. I'll usually watch the "highlights" first, just to see what the hype is about - then I'll look at individual games that isolate the player - that is really the only way to get a good read on the guy.

    There's one guy posts highlights on youtube all the time - Harris Highlights. I only watch his highlights if his are the only ones I can find. For the most part what he posts is useless, i.e. up close, fast action shots - can't see anything about what led to the sack, or TD, or INT, or whatever.

    In order to look at a guy you need to have a wide angle shot so you can see most of the field, and you can see everything the guy does on a given play.

    Not at all. They have to find the QB.

    Luck is still potential. This last year threw that claim of consistently contending into all doubt. Until he proves it (and to a lesser extent Wilson too now that he got paid and the team will have cheaper pieces filling out the ranks), that inclusion almost invalidates the premise (if that assumption was incorrect, what else was too).

    There are a couple of teams on the 'no playoffs in 5 years' list that seem to think they have their QB, Miami and Chicago.

    Right. Thirty seconds in, if it's a bunch of quick edits and obnoxious noise that kids these days call "music", I click right out of there. You can't tell anything from that drivel.

    Crap is too loud at any volume other than mute (my preferred setting for highlight videos).

    Good music (at least good rock) is too loud when it causes nose bleeds and structural damage to buildings.

    Trevor Davis speedy, first to sign contract. http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packe...378359301.html

    Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 10h10 hours ago
    After signing rookies, GB will have $5.3M cap space. With 3/5 of OL, 2013 draft class entering FA, isn't it obvious why TT stays out of FA?

    Maybe not says Spoon as JSO (link above):

    Although the Packers' rookie pool is more than $5 million, it doesn't mean that their team salary cap will be cut by that much. The Packers were $10.65 million under the cap heading into the draft, and their picks will only cost them about $1.7 million of that total.

    Only the top 51 salary cap figures for 2016 count during the off-season, so even though seven draft pick salaries will be added to the payroll, only five of them are expected to qualify as the top 51 and they will replace players with cap numbers of $525,000.

    Thus, the Packers' team cap will only drop to about $9 million when all the picks are signed.

    Yes and no, because until they actually sign all of the draftees, they have to include their rookie pool amount in their salary cap calculation. That's one of the reasons teams that are close to their salary cap limit work hard to get the rookies signed quickly, it frees up salary cap space for them.

    Never use social media. I don't tweet, snap, face, or anything. Who said we NEED this stuff? A handshake or a hug means more.

    In the division, the Packers’ over/under is at 10 ½ wins with the defending champion Vikings at 9 and the Lions at 7.
    Bears at 7.5.
