CB/S Josh Jackson is taking part in team drills for the first time since coming off NFI with a foot injury.

Gotta think he’ll play slot with all of the speed we have in the other guys. Glad he’s back tho. If he can develop into a quality slot guy, that sets us up to move on from Tramon painlessly next year.

Earlier mentioned that MLF was mad at Dexter Williams. Here's more of a description of what happened:

Team red zone drills upcoming:

2nd team starts. Boyle at QB.

Holy cow. Dexter Williams open for a td. Boyle beautiful ball, Williams drops it and LaFleur is PISSED. All over Williams and he’s out of the period.

Cue “ Woodblock” with his devastating critique of the entire organization.

Williams will make the roster and be a game day inactive all season until someone gets hurt

So he plays week 2 is what you're saying.

List of surprise positives from camp:

Mont Adams (looked stout af in games)
Shepherd/Lazard


I’m excited to see the defense come together. The young corners stepping up was the brightest bright spot of camp. With the improved pass rush depth and DL depth, I could see a very strong pass defense in 2019. I wouldn’t be surprised with a top 5 finish. Anything less than top 10 and I’m disappointed.

Seems out of place? Would be better to ream out a starter, of course, none of the starter RBs are healthy so, OK.

Packers have a deep DB room, but the question is always will enough of them be able to ambulate out of the room and actually play?

How deep? Rolling in the deep? As deep as Linda Lovelace in Deep Throat?

Unless you shutdown Darren Charles in a game, with all due respect, you know jack shit about DBs, especially corners.

What I’m barking about is, there ain’t a fucking shutdown corner in cold, dark and dull Green Bay. Alexander is a cocky little midget who fakes an injury every time some no name 7th string wide-out is eating him “out” alive. King hasn’t been exposed as the fraud he apparently is b/c he lacks balls to show up on Sundays. King is so fragile, he makes Nick Perry look as tough as Brett Favre. T-Will is over the hill. The rest of the corners, none of them has the Kung Fu to shutdown Richard Rodgers, and I’ve seen Lions DEs - not DBs - shut down Rodgers.

At safety, the Rook is, well, a rook. Rook’s gonna make a shitload of mistakes; that’s just the nature of the game. Amos, is he Italian or something? I saw him miss an open field tackle on a TE the other day. I was not impressed. The rest are deer-legged losers, to paraphrase my pal Partial. The only good news is, safety #35 is no longer donning the Green and Gold.

I will self-ban from this forum if #35 catches more picks for the Pack this season than Bak.

Good to know, LaFleur ain’t as soft as he looks. A player could fumble twice in a quarter and McCarthy would still throw him right back into the fray, instead of grabbing the player by the face mask and dragging him into a doghouse.

Looks like the Frog is actually preaching accountability.

Sounds like he’s really pushing consistency. Very few players he really praises. The up and comers he says, yeah, they do good things in flashes but we need it consistently. And he’s always talking about “the standard.” So I do get the sense there is a higher standard to do things right in Green Bay now. He also talks about the defense as an equal, MM always seemed to lean toward the offense.

McCarthy was the same as almost all coaches. He pulled players if they made mistakes in practice and benched players in games unless they were well established.

Not sure about the yelling though, seems conter-productive.

But my concern here is reps. Players need reps to iron out problems. Yanking them from the reps better be the second to last method. Otherwise, problem will not get solved.

Drops like that are focus (laziness) issues, nothing to do with technique. All the reps aren't going to keep a guy from dropping the ball in that situation. Yanking him gets his attention and that causes him to feel embarrassed and you damn well know that the focus will be there next time.

I personally prefer the 'self-discipline' of the team. i.e., If Williams drops another pass, the whole team does 50 push-ups. "RUN IT AGAIN!"

Only for the Bears and Vikings games.
