I just loved the nickname gbpackfan dubbed for Bishop and when I read this article it shocked me. I like some kool aid and all, but in the article Bishop states that he thinks he is one of the best 2 ILB's in the ENTIRE NFL!!!
Thoughts?

I want some of Bishops kool-aid! -
cancer and diva with that attitude...I like the canned answer, " I will just work hard and actually accomplish something when given time in a real game not just at the start of camp."Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.Comment

Excited to see Bishop running with the first team!Comment

The guy is fucking delusional.
Maybe he deserves more of a chance, but to blame it on draft status? The guy starting directly behind his position at SS, Bigby, was an undrafted FA who beat out a third round pick. Tramon Williams is another UFA and he's playing over a 2nd rounder. Same with the undrafted guy starting at RDE, Cullen Jenkins. Jolly was a 6th just like him, and he started every game for the last couple years. So was Al Harris. He needs to get over it.Comment

On Twitter, Bedard was puffing the possibility of a Chillar-Barnett-Bishop-Matthews linebacking corps, saying that it would be difficult to pass against because of what happened in practice today. He said nothing about how this might be due to how good Chillar is in coverage (he is very good), and claimed that Bishop is an improvement over Hawk in terms of pass defense.
Can someone possibly help me get into Bedard's tiny mind here? Hawk isn't everything we hoped for when we took him at #5, but one thing has actually become is someone who is very reliable and assignment sure in coverage. Since he's faster than Bishop linearly and laterally, and has better recognition skills... don't you think that would, um..., make him better against the pass?
Do you think we can trade him for a 6th round ILB who looks good in the preseason and isn't a malcontent?</delurk>Comment

People who like Bishop have always touted his ability to blow up plays in the backfield, that he is more physical than Hawk and stuff like that. All of that translates into Bishop supposedly being better than Hawk in the base defense against the run--provided that he could ever overcome his tendency to make the costly mistakes that Hawk avoids. So I think Bedard is just confusing how Hawk and Bishop are seen in run defense and pass defense. You can understand how the little details would get blurred after a seven month vacation.Originally posted by Lurker64

The problem being that in very limited real world experience (not pre-season), Bishop looked like a fucking retard out there last year."You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - PartialComment

Just give the guy a fair shot at starting. What has Hawk done that is so great the last two years? Or Barnett for that matter. As for him saying that he is a top two LB in the league, idnk about that. But Finley has that sort of confidence in himself and look how that has turned out for him.Draft Brandin Cooks WR OSU!Comment

It was nice to read the same article that we have read about Bishop for the last 2 years. The only difference is now he thinks he is one of the top 2 ILBs in the NFL.But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

He had a shot last season. He looked retarded. He couldn't focus. Was all jumpy and running the wrong direction and falling down and shit. That's not how you impress your coaches. I've loved watching him in the preseason and have wanted him to break out, but at this point, the guy is stuck in his own head, and I don't think he's getting out.Originally posted by PaCkFan_n_MD"You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - PartialComment

Hawk has 175 tackles of which 134 are solo tackles (77%), 4 sacks and 2 ints.Originally posted by PaCkFan_n_MDBut Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

He needs to play lights out in August AND the regular season for his frustration to end. He doesn't sound like a real team player right now.
Every player looks a little out of place on occasion but he has looked completely lost at the worst possible times.C.H.U.D.Comment

hawk rarely makes mistakes. he may not make a lot of big plays, but he does his part in preventing a lot against usOriginally posted by PaCkFan_n_MDComment

Divided by two and those numbers are very replacable. Chillar would without a doubt get those numbers and maybe Bishop if given the chance who knows.Originally posted by ThunderDanDraft Brandin Cooks WR OSU!Comment
