Check out freak WR Calvin Johnson (Georgia Tech) who is playing right now (kick off shortly!) on ESPN. He is probably going to be drafted top 10, if not top 5. The Packers are def. watching this kid.

His stats so far this year don't show it, but Calvin Johnson is going to be an unreal stud in the NFL.
I would die if the Packers got him. Not saying I'm ready to give up on this season yet, but it would be an awfully nice consolation prize after a lousy season. Driver/Jennings may be a good combo, but you just don't pass on a player like Johnson if he is available. Especially if Jennings has a lousy rookie season.

i never knew he was so big either... 6'5" 230... yikes.
im torn between him and jarrett though.
So we now know he can make very difficult adjustments on the ball. His hands, or should I say hand looked pretty good too. That was extremely impressive. What about the rest of his game? What's his 40 time? Does he run good routes? Does he get seperation from good corners? Does he block a little?

He's as hyped as any prospect since Charles Rodgers and before him Randy Moss. It'll be interesting to see which pro he career is closer to.Originally posted by Scott CampbellOriginally posted by tonytokesthat's INSANE bro! never seen that before...

6'5'' 235 lbs.
He can run by a defense. 4.35 s 40 yard dash and a 45'' vertical leap.
He has great potential. In the last 10 games, he's had one 100 yard game and was held to 2 receptions 3 times.
I don't know much else but it's perked my interest.
He's taller but skinner than Vernon Davis - but he's about as fast and can jump 3'' higher.
He's as hyped as any prospect since Charles Rodgers and before him Randy Moss. It'll be interesting to see which pro he career is closer to.The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

O man, That would look so nice...
Favre...
Driver | Johnson | Jennings | Fergy...
Ahman in backfield...
Oline can only get stronger..
Offense becomes strong point again...
This kid would be better than walker... Hes bigger and has better hands... Would favre gamble on a lot of 1 v 1's though

The thing about drafting WR in the top 5, is that it is just too risky. There is wealth to be found, but only, I believe 22 of the starting WR in the NFL, are 10th or lower. Hines Ward, Donald Driver, Chris Chambers, Rod Smith Steve Smith, are all examples of WR that can be found later in the draft. I mean, look what Millen has done taking WR's in the 1st round. Rodgers is a bust, Mike Williams doesn't look promising, Roy Williams is the only one that looks like he will have a solid career.
Calvin is a great body type, and looks to be a good player. But the YAC concerns me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but West Coast focuses on YAC doesn't it. Donald Driver is excellent doing that, but if Calvin can't, that would be a problem."I've got one word for you- Dallas, Texas, Super Bowl"- Jermichael Finley
