    Of course their not the sane Guiness but I was thinking along these lines:

    Look at the stigma surrounding both of them before the draft.

    It's right there that I draw attention to some comparison.

    • Getting a talent like this makes me want CB Pierre Desir instead of our 3rd round TE way more
      TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

        Both were very highly thought of. Burfict had 1st round buzz before his senior year. Both plummeted and ended up undrafted. Vontaze ended up being quite a player. Hoping for the same out of Colt.

        • Except Burfict tanked his combine, whilst Colt did well.

            So the other similarities are moot?

              That's what happens when you draft for need.

              TT had many many more decent picks than TE rookie prospect Richard Rodgers with the 3rd Round Compensatory pick but now it's a let's hope for the best.

                Packers sign Colt Lyerla after tryout

                " ESPN Packers reporter Rob Demovsky discusses the Packers' signing of former Oregon tight end Colt Lyerla after he had an impressive two-day rookie camp last week in Green Bay."

                By: Rob Demovsky | ESPN.com

                "You weigh it all ..... and every case is an individual case. We have always believed that, or I have always believed that there are certain things that people can atone for, acknowledge their mistakes and get on with their lives. And I am a proponent of those kind of people that try to do that. And that's where we're at with Colt."
                Packers GM Ted Thompson

                Lyerla was one of three tryout players the Packers signed on Monday. They also added Hawaii defensive back Charles Clay and Miami defensive end Luther Robinson.

                By cutting tight end Raymond Webber, signed earlier in the offseason, the Packers were at their 90-man roster limit.

                • It will be fun to see how Colt and all of these rookies perform when they go up against the vets in the upcoming OTAs and TC.

                  • See, for me it's less about the rooks and more about the second- and third-year guys, sometimes even the fourth-years. Rookies are rookies - some very occasionally can be exceptional, but mostly they're just going to make the team and work on getting better.

                    But the young-but-not-rookie guys really can show that they've developed their bodies (will Bahk have put on some muscle?) or that the lights have gone on (Davon House, please?) or that they've overcome an injury (Hayward, Worthy).

                    Those are the guys I'm interested in, mostly. Guys like Tretter, Sherrod (yes, I still have hope that he will be the starting left tackle, and not by default, this year for the Pack), Lattimore, the wide receiver Dorsey, Jerel Worthy, Datone Jones, Josh Boyd, Brandon Bostick, Sean Richardson.

                    That's my list of guys I'm interested in watching and reading about most.
