[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 732006, member: 7261"] Duds: [LIST=1] [*]The Don Barclay turnstile torch has officially been passed to [B]Jason Spriggs[/B]. I'm starting to wonder if those 2 have been training together exclusively. While I was rarely happy with Barclay, at least he was a free agent that provided some rotational depth. Spriggs on the other hand so far is looking like a guy the Packers completely wasted 3 picks on. [B]OL depth[/B] has to be a concern. Losing Sitton, Lang and Tretter in less than a year is showing. [*][B]Running Game[/B]: Once again, the Packers QB outgained the RB's and that was during garbage time. The [B]run blocking[/B] looks non-existent so evaluating the 4 rookie running backs is difficult, but Jones was about the only one who could manage to do anything and that was on second effort. [*][B]Joe Callahan[/B]: Looked lost but might have been lack of OL blocking. Hill looked more poised. [*][B]ILB pass coverage[/B]: Too many easy dump offs to the RB's for Cousins. [*][B]Concussions[/B]: 3 more possible ones. Edit: Tripp has one, Gunter doesn't, Derrick Matthews still being evaluated. [*][B]Lowry's knee injury[/B]. [/LIST] Studs: [LIST=1] [*][B]Tackling[/B]: Something that was pathetic in game 1, looked much better in game 2. [*][B]First team offense[/B]: Even with no run game, [B]AR[/B] is the cool cucumber who gets it done. [*][B]McCaffrey[/B]: I think this guy just moved past Davis on the WR and ST's depth chart. I don't see the Packers cutting him. [*][B]DB's aggressiveness[/B]: Looked like they all were swarming to the ball nicely. [*][B]Hundley and Hill[/B]: Brett looked much better and Hill may have just made his case to move ahead of Callahan. [/LIST] I would like to put Janis on the Stud list, but we have seen him play well at WR in previous preseasons and then not much out of him during the regular season. Ultimately his value to the Packers is on special teams. His kick returning ability so far isn't good. Didn't see him do anything special in the coverage game. Right now, I put McCaffrey ahead of Janis as well. [/QUOTE]
