[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 667324, member: 7261"] [COLOR=#000000] So the same logic should apply with [URL='http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/4002672/moritz-boehringer'][COLOR=#000000]Moritz Boehringer[/COLOR][/URL] and the Vikings, as well as all players in the NFL who have better physical attributes then the guys put ahead of them on the depth chart by coaches? Pete Dougherty (author of the article) is one of my favorite Packers writers, but even Pete, in trying to defend Janis starts his article off with a perfect example of why Janis, despite his physical attributes, found himself at the bottom of the depth chart all of last year. In a recent practice, Janis failed to run a route, resulting in Gunter picking it off. Dougherty notes that in a real game, this error may have cost the Packers a Pick 6.

For the 3rd year in a row, Janis will be given adequate practice and preseason snaps to prove that he deserves to be on the field more often during the regular season.
