Thats disappointing that Datone isnt in there, but we dont use much base anyway. Maybe Boyd is a gamer!

Daniels, Raji Boyd starting out in base on the DL.

Here is all we have so far.

I'd see Daniels as a waste in the base - I'd save him exclusively for the subpackages that we run a majority of the time anyway.

I don't want to see him getting worn down trying to anchor the end in the run game. Stick Worthy, Guion, or Thornton in there; hell, I'd prefer Perry in there over Daniels b/c Daniels is a more valuable asset in the pass rush.

It's early, and everyone is going to get some reps moving around; but I surely hope Daniels isn't a regular in base.

Abbrederis gets more mentions. He's getting some love early on in camp.

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 4m
Jared Abbrederis real sharp in 1 on 1's today. Shakes Bush loose with a good route, then breaks free from CB's hold for another catch.

Tyler Dunne @TyDunne 1m
Clinton-Dix working with Hyde at safety during red zone. Stuffs the run on the first play.

@TomSilverstein
First development is that OLB Mike Neal has his helmet and is stretching with the team. Won't be allowed in pads by rule.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
First team drill, Micah Hyde is still with Burnett and the first-team defense.

On the second team, Richardson at strong safety with Clinton-Dix at free. Banjo was in there before.

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Lang (shoulder) still not working with No. 1s. Barclay at RG with starters. Lang said he thought he'd be back Wed or Thurs.

Clinton-Dix working with Hyde during this series. Haven't seen much of that before.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Eddie Lacy rumbles in for a touchdown. Mike Daniels is angry. (Earmuffs)

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Burnett not taking reps in that last team drill. Either they're getting a look at the other S or he's nicked up. Had helmet on whole time.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Datone Jones runs over Aaron Adams in 1 on 1's. Looked like the Jones of early on in last summer that rep.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Mike Neal is working on his speed around the edge more than power this drill, testing out the new frame. Bull rushed a lot last year.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Derek Sherrod stalemates Carl Bradford and James Campen approves. Been a long, long time since Sherrod has worked in this setting.

@TomSilverstein
They need to find better competition for Mike Daniels in pass rush drill. Destroyed all three of his opponents: Taylor, Tiller, Tiller.

Clay Matthews just whipped by Barclay in 9 on 7 drill.

On a third and 3 in this full team period, Clinton-Dix drops a tip-drill interception.

Good comeback by Abbrederis on Shields for red zone reception from Rodgers.

Rodgers threads the needle to Nelson on a TD. Richardson late in coverage.

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Burnett still not working in team drills. Something's up with him.
Jul. 30, 2014

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
First teams facing each other in red zone now. Tramon Williams with a would-be sack on a left corner blitz.
Jul. 30, 2014

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Not one of Rodgers' better days. A few overthrows this red zone drill. Just missed Nelson on a quick out.
Jul. 30, 2014

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Rajion Neal breaks free for a score on a draw. Looked like Tolzien audibles to the play -- Campen loves it, screaming "Great call!"
Jul. 30, 2014

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Jarrett Bush had an INT and Boykin ripped it right out of his arms. It was almost a change of possession. Boykin landed OB; no catch

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Hyde, Dix and Richardson n the field at the same time. Hyde scoots up to cover the slot.
Jul. 30, 2014

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Morgan Burnett stopped practicing. He's still out. McCarthy update on that after practice.

Tyler Dunne
@TyDunne
Two great plays by Davon House in back of end zone on Nelson. Lattimore shouting, taunting Nelson from afar.

Tom Silverstein
@TomSilverstein
Rodgers dumps to Bostick over the middle for TD. B Jones covering.

The future is hyde and haha at safeties

Get burnett the hell out of there. People keep saying he sucked because the other safety sucked last year. The other safety had nothing to do with burnett blowing coverage duties all the time on his side of the field. The other safety was not responsible for burnett thinking it would be best to help tramon cover his slow guy on the sideline instead of helping hawk who was lined up with the fastest TE in the nfl, who was clearly running a streak off the snap

You cant fix stupid, get him out of there

Hyde and clinton dix

At some point I think you'll get your wish. C-D is their most natural FS, and Hyde is a more instinctive player than Burnett. It might not happen right away though.

MM won't bench Burnett. Not saying he shouldn't, just saying he won't.

Incidentally, Last year I said that I liked Richardson/McMillan as the future at safety. I was halfway on the right track.

[pittstang5]

Why do you think that? IMO, McCarthy has shown that if someone is better at a position, regardless of your pay or status on the team - you ride the pine.

You know what, I have a feeling it's going to pan out this way as well. Burnett will play for a lot of years in the league, but he's not very good. He's just not bad enough to give up on.

[Bretsky]

Burnett has a lot of talent but he seems stupid. Watching the Bears game he made one phenominal game to break up a long pass and then went bonehead. I truly believe they need a veteran leader at that position to do some teaching. Whether it's bad coaching or they are just stupid....they need more direction

[Joemailman]

packers signed WR Gerrard Sheppard off waivers from Baltimore. http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/269292151.html

He's 6-1, 211. Spent last year on Baltimore's practice squad.

Won't happen because of his salary but I agree I like Hyde at FS and Dix at SS. I think Burnett sucked last season because of his hamstring injury but either way we have great depth at safety all of a sudden.

[Rutnstrut]

I have heard a few different people say Linsley looks really good and Tretter looks so so. Has anyone heard/seen anything similar to this? I still think Linsley is a better center than Tretter so it wouldn't surprise me.
