What production do you expect from GREG JENNINGS?

Another thing to consider; will these expectations towards Greg Jennings get to his head? Jennings seems like a pro and talks like a pro, heck he plays like a pro. I'm still saying 60 catches!

It would be valid, idle threat--if the quotes you were using for Jennings were from before training camp/preseason started. Again, we had this discussion before they were one week into training camp. Before the scrimmage. Long before any preseason games. Those quotes for Jennings are from August 16th, August 24th, etc. Dig up the quotes on Jennings before the preseason started, and let me know what the coaches were saying.

Give it up, Harvey. You and Patler are trying to deny the obvious, but no amount of skilled debating will make the sun rise in the west.

I took the first two quotes about Jennings directly from your discussion that took place three weeks ago. Only the last two quotes are newer.

The first quote about Jennings comes from this JSO article dated August 2, 2006. In this article, they are already talking about Jennings being an immediate starter and being better than most rookies they have ever seen.

Terrence Murphy wasn't hurt until August 2, 2005. Show me any kind of article from early last summer that comes close to this level of praise regarding Murphy.

I'll save you some time ... there isn't one.

All the praise about Murphy was that he was better than the average rookie, and he exceeded expectations. The talk about Jennings is that he's better than almost any rookie they have ever seen, and that he's already as skilled as a starting player.

Re: What production do you expect from GREG JENNINGS?

Now that we know Jennings is a football player, I think it's legit to ponder what we might see from Greg Jennings this season.

I think he's more talented than WR Mark Clayton from Baltimore and Clayton actually had a nice rookie season.

Mark Clayton had 44 catches, 471 yards and 2 TDs in 2005. Clayton got in gear late in the season and he even had some punt returns.

Greg Jennings will have 60 catches, 750 yards and 6 TDs. Jennings is more ready than M. Clayton. Jennings will make Driver a star, shoot, he might even help Ferguson get 40 catches this season. Ok, it's Driver who's the focus of Packers passing game but Jennings is more than solid. I can't wait to see the game vs Bengals - I'm gonna see it ALL - not just a half game.

What do you expect?

BUMP

Offensive ROY is that too much to ask?

Perhaps not. Nice bump.

That's why he's the GM and they're the "experts."
