^thanks for proving my point Gunter is garbage
Gunter shut down just about everybody this side of Julio Jones. Not many Corners shut him down. What more do you want from a UDFA? He'll do just fine as a #2 Corner if King can come through against the top WRs of opponents.
King, Gunter starting; Randall in the slot, Rollins and House as back ups along with maybe Hawkins or maybe keep only 5
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
Tex, I'm on the bandwagon that Gunter can start in this league. He is pretty much a lock to make the roster.Originally Posted by texaspackerbacker
HOWEVER...lets be clear. No one on that entire defense shut down just about everybody this side of Julio Jones. Controlled, contained. Didn't piss all over his shoes, yes. Shutdown? No.
I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
Joe Whitt is in Gunter's corner. http://www.packers.com/media-center/...7-1e6a11a85512 Comments about Gunter start at about 5:15.
Smaller than a normal RB and unable to take the rigors of the NFL....or something like that
We were 31st, i.e. next to last defending the pass... I guess the bright side is that we could be worse

Is it just me or is the guy in the top row middle wearing a yellow skirt, green tights, and gold ballet slippers?
Must be a Packer cornerback.

Davis is kind of a forgotten guy. However, he has the best speed of any Packer WR not named Jeff Janis. A deep threat sure would be a great weapon to have.The Packers have a lot of depth at the wide receiver and tight end position heading into 2017. With the top three wide receivers spots locked up, the battle at the position is one to follow and on Tuesday Trevor Davis stood out at the position. Davis caught most – if not all – of the passes thrown his way, including a pass up the sideline that beat the defense over the top
Edit: This story was from last week. OTA's resume tomorrow.
Even if he's half a step slower than Janis, a little route running makes him pretty dangerous.
Either Janis or Davis will not be on the roster when the season starts.
I'm guessing Janis. He was a fan favorite two years ago, but last year he did nothing to retain that title. Haven't heard a peep about his potential or progress. Nor have I heard any updates about his special teams abilities (although I still remember Crosby vouching for Janis's ability to halve a field for a return all by himself).
If he hasn't flashed within the system on called plays by now, then he's not going to. It's special teams or bust, and GB always appears willing to move on from special teams' aces in favor of skill position talent. And right now, there's a lot of WRs on the roster: Nelson, Adams, Cobb, Allison, Davis, Janis, Dupre (R), and Yancey (R). That's 8 starters and recent draft picks. I guess it isn't unprecedented to stash recent draft picks on the practice squad if they don't show much. So I guess it's possible.
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
Crosby was on McCarren's show, and they went over video of kickoff coverage. Crosby just kind of chuckled when they showed a couple clips of Janis coming from a left outside position on kickoffs to the right, running over a couple would-be blockers and getting to the far hash marks at about the 20 yard line before the return man got there. He didn't come anywhere near making the tackle, but the return guy had no choice but to look for something between the sidelines and where Janis was. Crosby laughed and said something like, "That's Jeff! He does that all the time."
We don't get to appreciate those types of things too often.
Rollins had groin surgery, too. Did we know that?
Rollins, on the other hand, was out for three contests but was also nagged throughout the year, as he put off surgery until the season had concluded. According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel’s Michael Cohen, who spoke to Rollins, the same doctor who repaired Randall’s groin performed the surgery on Rollins.

Did not know that.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I have real hope that with reasonable health neither Randall nor Rollins will be the players they were last year.
What's with the groin surgeries? Is the groin the new hammy?

Rollins and Randall work out together in the offseason. I wonder if the Packers training staff might look at what their training regimen consists of. (Unintended joke opportunity here).
Maybe. But Randall (and I think Rollins) got hurt during games, not in the offseason. Bet its the more proximate cause.

Not sure what you meant by proximate cause. What I was suggesting is that perhaps their workout regimen doesn't focus enough on maintaining flexibility.
