Martin on the practice squad?

He showed enough last year that somebody would scoop him up as a backup WR.

I believe a player is ineligible for the practice squad if he has spent an entire season on an NFL roster.

Driver
Jennings
Jones
Clowney
Martin
Holiday


With the possibility that Clowney hits the practice squad if he doesn't have a good camp.

Leading contender at that point would be Bodiford if he works out as a KR.

And, yes, I think they keep 6.

Clowney would likely get picked up by someone unless he's as bad as Cory Rodgers.

I hoping one or two of the 50 WRs that Pack has on the roster will be good on KRs and PRs. I hated seeing Woodson returning punts last year and held my breath everytime (worried about injuries).

I think the Packer staff liked what they saw from Bodiford for these types of duties before the injury. I think he has a legitimate shot at making the team for this alone.

A little off topic - but weren't they considering Blackmon as a PR or KR at one point?

With all the potential talent at WR, Fergie's got to be worried about his job. One thing in his favor, I always hear that the coaching staff loves his work ethic. But, if you can't produce and stay healthy, you're not going to make it in the NFL.

I agree that Bodiford may make it as a returner, if nothing else. Blackmon did indeed return kicks in college. It's my recollection that the coaches were impressed with his return ability in minicamp last year before he got hurt.

isnt jones someone can go catch over the middle and run after the catch? thats basically another driver/jennings. so exactly how much space is in the "middle" of the field. can it fit three identical WRs? i would rather see clowney as the third WR. even if he cant catch, send him running downfield to open up space.

Holiday will emerge this year as the next "Javon Walker" in GB. He will outplay everyone in preseason, and be our third receiver that can stretch the field and make some big plays. Ruvell will be in on four receiver sets. The rookies will give them breathers.

Idk that if robinson is reinstated that he will automatically go to spot three. i mean first of all does he still have it. He hasnt played in about a year. Is he still in shape or did he become a lazy ass? I think that the first group of recievers have a ton of potential

I guarantee you he hasn't been sitting on his ass sipping Jim Bean for the last several monthes.

It's one thing to be in shape, and another thing to be in football shape. I believe Robinson cannot practice with the team until he is reinstated, so it may take some time before he is ready to play.

thats what i was trying to say, i seriously doubt that he will come in (4th game?) while everyone else has been working out with the team and is in shape and come in and take the 3rd spot

Isn't this the same description of Sterling Sharpe?

Not real fast, thick body, but can get open and makes yards after the catch?

I am not saying he is a Sterling Sharpe.

I am saying that guys that are not speed merchants but who are tough and have good hands can indeed be valuable WRs

The odd situation is that he may not be working out with the team, but he is serving part of his sentence at Bellin alongside the team doctor. So at least he has someone from the team with an eye on him.

Please re-read - I said IF he has a bad camp. IF he doesn't have a "bad" camp, (even if it's below average), I think he makes the team.
