[QUOTE="GreenNGold_81, post: 990754, member: 11374"] Ok, you guys brought me back. When you guys say he had "plenty of opportunity" what exactly do you mean? BECAUSE AMARI WASN'T TARGETED. He barely got thrown the ball AT ALL. I'm not talking about his failed attempts on special teams in this thread I'm talking about in-game situations at WR. He wasn't worked into any game plans, he wasn't used for jet sweeps like he probably should have been more often. He just wasn't used! 8 targets as a rookie. EIGHT. This is a 3rd rounder that we traded up for. 8 targets again in year 2 (with GB). Almost all during the stretch when Cobb was out indicating they had no intent to throw him the ball when Cobb was in there. Against the Pats in his rookie year Adams was targeted ELEVEN times. In Adams's second game ever with GB he was targeted seven times. Not just that, they made no attempts to showcase him for a trade. At least give him a game or two where you target him 10 times to see if he can increase his trade value. No, didn't even get more opportunities then. In the middle of a losing streak with an offense that looked like complete garbage, we threw him at most 3 balls a game. Trotted him out there to struggle on special teams though. Again, this was a kid who got put in the dog house for whatever reason and couldn't dig out. And the Packers kept Cobb around despite his age to appease Rodgers rather than work on developing Amari and letting him play through growing pains. At least they got their photo together leaving Lambeau after Rodgers only targeted him twice for eleven yards in a must win game, hope it was worth it. Super weird frustrating situation because Amari was the type of player this offense would have benefited from having if he was developed right. [/QUOTE]
