Yeah I think Heath gets the nod over Hardman. Heath is JAG as a WR, but he's a big guy and a good blocker on screens and crossing routes.
That's been my hunch all along; that if it comes down to one or the other, Hardman is out. Green Bay seems to really like Heath. They seem to keep giving him lots of chances, like they're trying to find reasons to keep him.
That said, he'll likely get waived when Watson is back. Depends on the health of the WRs.
Assuming nobody else has been injured yet at that point, yeah. Adding 2 WRs in the draft was kind of the death knell for Heath, unfortunately.
One thing I did glean is that Hopper, like I thought, is a player. Someday he and Cooper together in the game is going to be awesome.
I've been really high on Hopper right from Day One; I thought that was just an excellent pick. So many people were down on him last year and writing him off as a bust, but if you'd read the scouting reports on him, you'd understand that he was always going to be a 2-year project. But the talent and the skillset were always there.
I'm not down on Q and think he'll do very well this year.
I've never been a really big fan of Quay, but I have always hoped he'd be a great LB some day. He's never been a particularly smart player, but I respect his effort and how hard he's worked to make himself better.
But I agree that he is likely to have a very good year. He and Cooper complement each other very well, and each seems make the other better by freeing them up to play to their strengths. And I think Hafley is going to have a few ideas on how to get the most out of Walker this year; I expect our D-line to be much better, which will create opportunities for the linebackers.
