[QUOTE="PWT36, post: 158454, member: 170"] Retired Grampa- I went to one session of OTA's. I don't get real "worked up" about Mini camps and OTA's. And in my opinion, neither do the sports media covering the Packer's. Players with Helmets and shorts having no blocking and Tackling (almost little like soccer-sorry soccer fans out the on the www )doesn't excite football fans or probably the media covering the Packers. Brett Favre said he finds the Mini camps and OTA's boring. I agree with him. They are sort of boring but are Packer football!!. You take what you can get in late Arpil and early May!! I would think, the Packers were watching with interest both Packer '07 draftee's ( taken within the first five rounds of this year's draft) , WRs David Clowney and James Jones. Also the Packers probably were paying attention to unproven wide receivers from last year's roster, Ruvell Martin , Carlyle Holliday, , Carlton Brewster, Chris Francies , Calvin Russell and a FA '07 Wr Shawn Bodiford. Packer's top wide receivers this year, as they were in '06 are: #1 is 9 year veteran Donald Driver and #2 WR is 2nd year Greg Jennings Of coarse, unachieving 7 yr Veteran Wr Robert Ferguson is still on roster but is mostly likely" on the bubble" this year. Many Packer observers don't think he will be around after the training camp is over. You can see it is "crowded field of Wide Receiver at training camp this year. Packer HC Mike McCarthy watched off season program and is happy with all receivers that partcipated the program. McCarthy said " the receiver group are busting their (butts)" Greg Jennings had a high Ankle sprain some time during the last part of the '06 season , and by this time that Ankle should be all healed up from that injury. I am posting a series of PWT36 commentaries in packerforum news . I will cover many topics concerning the Green Bay Packers and Green Bay area. Not just historical but what is going on presently here in Green Bay. Training camps reports will be part of my commentaries this year. I had to get "plug" in for my commentaries. I try to get out to Packer training camp sessions, as much as possible. I will be out at first training camp session on July 28th and the Training camp session at Green Bay East high School 's City Stadium on July 31st. This will be the first time in over 50 years that Packer will be on the playing field of the former Packer home- old City stadium before they moved to new City Stadium (renamed Lambeau Field in 1965). Old City Stadium was Packer's home field from 1925 -1956. Yes. I know that is more information than you really wanted to know!. some of us (semi , in my case) retired grampas tend to get long winded. lol [/QUOTE]
