Running back Justin Beaver looks to find some running room. (88 is TE Jermichael Finley. I'm guessing the LB is 44 Marcus Riley UDFA Fresno St.)

Holy cow Beaver is tiny

He's 5'7" (Update.. I errouneously said he was 5'9" earlier.)

Coach McCarthy had an interesting quote today on Beaver :

Question : (Justin Beaver is a longshot, but what did you think of him, and what does he have to do to be able to come back in July?)

McCarthy : "He's quick as a hiccup, as they explained, or as advertised. I thought he did a nice job. He plays with both excellent pace and tempo. He's got an excellent spirit just the little that I've seen."

I thought the same thing. But they're going to have 13 WR's and at least 5 TE's in camp. Running out of "80's" :

Here's coach Robinson with the Receivers today :



L - R :
17 Johnny Quin 6'0", 209, North Texas
6 Tai Smith 6'0", 192, Syracuse
18 Rod Harper 6'0", 209, Murray St.
87 Jordy Nelson 6'3", 217, Kansas St.
13 Jake Allen 6'4", 190, Mississippi College
16 Brett Swain 6'0", 194, San Diego St.

Ted looks like he could make your brain explode by staring at you.

Best picture of the day. Mike's put on some weight. Ted looks crazed.

We have the maximum limit for white wideouts (3). I'm guessing #18 gets cut first. He just looks too funny in his pads to me.

Well I don't know about that one. Bubba went to the pro bowl 3 times to start his career. Just a thought...

[Pacopete4]

i dont get the rip on Bubba... he gave us his all and what else can u ask from a player? Was he a as great as a first round pick as we wanted? nope... but he did go to 3 pro bowls and was a dominate red zone threat when he was in his prime for brett favre... no need to bash this guy what so ever.. show some class

[neil38133]

I agree with Pacopete, if I was a rookie TE, I'd be proud to wear Bubba's number.

[sheepshead]

I heard Jordy's the next Bill Schroeder. I'd like to think he's the next Steve Largent!

He is kinda creepy looking in that pic...maybe a little pocket pool?
