Dione jones last year
Deion Jones? That's the comparison that came to mind for me when I saw video of Josh. If he were making the same switch Deion made we'll know right away. He'll be at least 230 by August.
No doubt the theme of this draft is speed.
70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.
Deion Jones is the answer. I'm impressed. It's probably unfair to say he was drafted to play ILB, but I think he'll spend a lot of time there. Let's hope it goes as well as it did for Deion Jones.
I'd say he has great potential as an extra man in the box but if he's going to actually play ILB he'll need to be able to hold up against the run. That'll be a big test at 220 and new to the position in the NFL. Eventually perhaps but I don't think that's real likely for awhile. It'll be interesting to see if Burnett does some of that first. He'll match up against big TE's as a nickel/dime pass defender but not as an ILB as much I don't think...
It's early, but he's kind of the talk of the defense so far.

“Josh Jones is exactly what we thought he was,” defensive lineman Mike Daniels said on Saturday. “He comes in, and he’s quiet, but he shows up with bad attitude and that’s what you need out there on the defensive side of the ball.”Jones has been playing a hybrid role at linebacker and safety early in camp. His size, speed and physicality could make him a tone-setting weapon for the Packers defense, especially in the middle of the field.
The rookie also made plays against the run on Saturday, including a slicing tackle for loss against running back Aaron Jones to end a team run drill. No. 27 seems to show up with one or two impressive plays every single practice.
Daniels and Jones appear cut from the same cloth.
“Just his demeanor alone, screams out that he’s here for business,” Daniels said. “That’s always welcomed, especially from young guys.”
He certainly has solid athleticism.Originally Posted by Joemailman

I'm working with a little more than a chub from hearing that praise from Daniels.
Hopefully the bite is as good as the bark.
Second round safeties for the win.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I think the talent is there, it just comes down to coaching the kid up, and how they use him. That said, it will be a miracle if they don't make a mess of this kid... I have absolutely no faith that the Packers defensive coaching staff can even find the men's room, let alone develop a roving LB/S.

Well fuck, that's a shocker. Next you'll be telling me that Rut thinks Thompson purposefully picks players who get injured.
I always respect a man that can tell it the way he does see it.

I know.
Give it a little time, Wist.
Let us sheeple fan-types have our pre-season buzz.
Sorry guys, but the facts and history don't bode well for our defense - sadly.
I would actually argue that if we had Wade Phillips as our DC, we would be the favorite to win the SB... and I'd be stoking the engine of that bandwagon; but, as long as dunderdummy is in charge, we'll just keep plodding along at 10-6, with more ignominious playoff exits. It is what it is...

I have never met a playoff loss I liked. When you make the playoffs 8 straight years, and you don't win the SB every year, you will suffer playoff losses. You know you wouldn't trade the last 8 years for any team but the Patsies. And if you did, you'd be an idiot.

You just like him because he agrees with you.
