[QUOTE="greengold, post: 839960, member: 14223"] I do agree but question his hands. He and Rodgers have not connected much through TC. That is why. Plus, Allen Lazard ran a 4.55 at 6-5 227, and he has caught nearly everything. It is great that he's THAT fast, but if he's not finishing plays with Rodgers throwing to him, then what? After posting two 100 yd receiving days last year, he had 2 catches or fewer in 5 of his last 7 games last season. “Well, I just think it’s a comfort in the offense and, really, a comfort with his releases. I always say, for a young guy, the most important thing to do is to watch the older guy in the group. We’ve long had great role models in the receiver room … but now it’s Davante (Adams). What (Adams) does on a daily basis, his practice habits, his release patterns, are incredible. He’s a true pro’s pro, where he’s working on things every single day. I think MVS has really been watching him closely and picking things up and playing as fast as his time. I think that’s an issue with any player. You might time at a super-quick 40, but how fast do you play? It’s that football speed.
