[QUOTE="ArizonaPackerFan, post: 17399, member: 53"] I'm kind of concerned about our D-line. Our secondary has youth and inexperience too, but it seems like they have more ability and the potential to become pretty good in time with more experience. It seems like a lot of our D-linemen are lacking in one area or another. Hopefully they make some more strides in the coming weeks, but so far they haven't developed as much as I hoped. Below were some comments made by Cliff Christl yesterday. Hopefully they aren't as bad as Cliff makes them sound: "James Lee, Kenny Peterson and Donnell Washington, three defensive linemen who collectively represent a huge investment, are all in danger of being waived over the next few weeks as the Green Bay Packers trim their roster to the league limit of 53. Lee, a fifth-round draft pick in 2003, hustles more than most oversized defensive linemen, but never seems to get to the ball. Peterson, a third-round pick in ’03, looks good in drills, but never seems to get much done on the field. Washington, a third-round choice in 2004, is strong and meets all the measurable requirements, but plays high and doesn’t get off blocks. Not only haven’t they played to their draft level, they haven’t played up to the off-season expectations of new defensive coordinator Jim Bates. In truth, they probably have been the most disappointing group in training camp. So much so, they make overweight Grady Jackson and underachieving Cletidus Hunt appear to be indispensable." [/QUOTE]
