[QUOTE="CaliforniaCheez, post: 19791, member: 167"] Thomas was clearly better than Carroll. Thomas stopped a drive with 2 plays and Carroll kept a Titans drive alive with 2 penalties. I think Little and Hawkins will be nickel and dime backs. Collins looked beat but had speed to recover and deflect a pass. When you're good enough as a rookie to make up for your mistakes that's pretty good. He will deserve to wear that 36 in the next couple of years. Chris Johnson earned his walking papers For the second day in a Packer Uniform the LB Jenkins did okay and got an INT. Popinga should get cut as no one would sign him on their 53 player squad. PS Popinga. 2 Jenkins on defense is a possibility. I can't make a call on the DL. Against lesser talent some like Peterson, Lee and Washington showed some life. Did they wait until now or just got to work against camp fodder. If the DT's don't get off the respirator and show life it will be a long year for Barnett and Packer fans. Klemm had a starter job lined up. He won't get cut but he is really rusty from not playing much. It is a coin flip if he or Wells starts in Detroit. Bedell was not up to game speed and had a poor outing. I still think he can make the team but if he is cut it is almost all because of this game. Clifton and Flanagan both had bad games. Poor Walt Williams. I feel sorry for that guy. He could be the 54th player on the squad. Guys should get released in groups as the medical staff has to examine them before their release. 5 a day begining with the NFL-E guys like Sam Breeden. I am more confused about who I would cut than I was before. I may just accept the coaches decisions. It was sure refreshing to have some defensive stops and turnovers. Brett suffered the worst injury but I was the most worried when Manning held his knee and it later was described as "muscle cramps" There are still many questions but over the course of the preseason we learned. 1) Whitticker is better than expected and O'Dwyers experience did not make up for lack of moving out on blocks. 2) A fresh young Montgomery coming in mid season when Hunt or Jackson gets hurt might not be a bad thing. 3) Collins, Hawkins, and Underwood are better than expected. DB overall is a success. Little at little cost also helps. 4) The Roy Manning story will give hope to future undrafted guys coming in. 5) Sander has silenced his critics The 2006 draft should include at least 2 DT's, a TE, an RB, a T, and a QB(Nall will be gone) The Packers will throw more than run for awhile. They should run behind Whitticker and Tauscher rather than Klemm and Clifton. DB's are the most improved group but QB's will have lots of time to throw. DL is weak spot of team. Preseason the Packers are 2-2 just like the 49'ers and the Eagles for what little that is worth. Now the coaches will scheme for the Lions. The 10-6 season will be full of nervous moments. [/QUOTE]
