    In OTAs this was true. No drops for Watson in minicamp, but Doubs had some drops. Normal rookie stuff.

    Best part of offseason is making shit up and then fighting about it. Packers gave us a lot of joy this offseason with this draft class.

    Watson has incredible potential. I have been drinking homer juice on him more and more. By the start of training camp I could see myself saying he will break rookie td record.

    EARLY ON I even heard some severe fluffy's about Amari Rodgers......BUT now reality has set in.

    Whispers that Rodgers doesn't deserve a roster spot are leaking. NOW......Watson, and Romeo, and even the 7th rounder...............have been flashing really good at practices
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    I’ve actually heard good things about Amari this camp. He’ll probably be taking Cobb’s snaps by the end of the year.

    He did have a very good day at one of the minicamp practices. At any rate, with Watkins, Cobb and Lazard all unrestricted free agents after this year, there's almost no way he doesn't make the team.
    GREEN BAY – Amari Rodgers had a good practice on Day 2 of the Green Bay Packers’ minicamp.

    The second-year receiver caught a 15-yard pass over the middle from Aaron Rodgers with cornerback Rasul Douglas draped all over him to convert a third-and-10 during a 2-minute drill.

    Later in that drive, he made a fingertip catch on a wheel route that Rodgers overthrew on second down.

    And he made an impressive one-handed grab in the end zone that drew “oohs” from teammates during a drill in which the ball is purposely thrown behind the receiver.

    Christian Watson 50% bust
    Doubs 65% bust
    Amari Rodgers 80% bust
    Toure 90% bust

    Well be lucky if we get one player out of this group of misfits.

    I feel a lot better about the OL we took the last few years. Runyan, Newman, Rhyan, Tom. I like their chances.

    I’m glad to be wrong about Watson. I had my doubts, but his upside looks unquestionable now. He creates separation! He’s a worker! He brings contagious energy! He blocks! He’s a legit deep threat.

    Definitely more dangerous than MVS on the crossers and horizontal stuff. Wins deep.

    I’m optimistic! Harvey was right!

    Gonna be some frustrating drops. But he’s a playmaker.

    Doubs looks like a player too. 2 of 2 on those two picks will be huge for Rodgers twilight.

    He ain’t the bomb if he ain’t on the field. Watson is soft and fragile.

    what did watsons first two drops of the game look like?

    the first long TD pass he had kinda looked like he had problems finding it again. it was a high lob and he actually caught it with his inner elbows.

    then on the third TD, it was a dart right to him, and he tracked it and caught it perfectly

    any chance his problems come from the high lobs that rodgers throws. losing in the lights or sun or domes are just not knowing how to turn his head right?

    its hard to catch a fly ball if you haven't played baseball in awhile or have never done it before. same with fielding a punt.

    maybe he just needs some time adjusting to rodgers flight trajectory

    Oooof....the Amari Rodgers stuff from June is painful to read. I hadn't scrolled back far enough to see anything to shame myself, but I own him in a dynasty league, so comments weren't necessary.

    I thought he looked decent before his injury this year. Since he came back he looks like he's either not 100%, or he's afraid to run all out for fear of injuring the hamstring again. Which is exactly what happened to him last year. Got hurt and hardly had any catches after he came back from the injury. His snap count is going down (22/36% last night), so maybe we'll see Toure more.

    I think Sammy Watkins should have been cut in camp. He looks like ass, is not a long term player, and shouldn't play anymore this year if they're tanking. For a #3 overall pick, what a bust of a career.
