[El Guapo]

Which five DBs do you think we will open the season with against the Lions? (assuming a nickel package)

Interesting. Maybe 6. Could you list all the choices?

Packers cautiously optimistic about start of Year 2 for CB Kalen King

Packers defensive pass game coordinator Derrick Ansley said CB Kalen King is "looking really, really good" to start Year 2.

Yeah the above list sounds about right. @Pkrjones

Sounds like another position will have some good competition at depth. I’m really hoping King pops. I see him in that poor man’s Brian Branch area.
Concerns about
1. A dropoff from an All Conference level play to pedestrian performances 2. A poor Pro Day
3. Some play maturity concerns declaring too early dropped him.

IMO had he waited 1 more year and bounced back a little he’s a solid 4-6th Rounder. He’s one of that minority players that puzzled draft projections from late Day1 to Priority FA. His 5.61 40 time really scared everyone. Yet his short area quickness and football IQ is well above average.

Just for future reference Kalen King ran 4.61 at his pro day, I know the above was a typo.

I wasn't sure if this was a challenge or request. Either way I'm game:

Cornerbacks
- Jaire (I think that he goes by only one name now, like Liberace or ALF)
- Keisean Nixon
- Carrington Valentine
- Nate Hobbs
- Kamal Hadden
- Micah Robinson
- Isaiah Dunn
- Tyron Herring
- Javon Bullard
- Kalen King

Safeties
- Xavier McKinney
- Evan Williams
- Zayne Anderson
- Kitan Oladapo
- Omar Brown
- Kaleb Hayes
- Johnathan Baldwin
- Kahzir Brown

OK then. I'll pick who I think the starting 5 will be:
McKinney
Williams (but I do think Anderson can play)
Hobbs
Jaire
Valentine (that was a tough one but I think we need another corner in there)
I wouldn't call it a really strong group but it does seem serviceable. Especially if a couple of those others step up when we need em.

As much of a diva as he is, I think Madonna is a better comp.

...but ALF was on target, because I heard that he likes to eat cats and is obsessed with styrofoam.

From a trusted web source:

Foam standard

The foam standard is what drove the Melmacian fiscal system. Foam is considered a precious substance on Melmac. On the other hand, gold, which is a precious substance on Earth was valueless on Melmac. ALF's great uncle Louie Louie is credited with starting the foam rush of '08.
