[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 666676, member: 9033"] I know people are excited about Montgomery and the author should have mentioned him, I fail to see how his exclusion changes anything about the conclusion of the piece. Montgomery had less than 200 yards receiving and played in six games. If the team is counting on that kind of unproven player to be a significant upgrade then that sort of proves the position is weak. With a fully healthy Nelson the packers receivers are good. Everyone saw what happens without Nelson last year though; the offense was a shell of what it usually is. If Nelson gets hurt again or if his injury has slowed him down, what did the Packers do to make you think 2016 would be much different? Another thing that's getting lost here is that the article is about the team's biggest weakness. That doesn't necessarily mean the team in actually "weak" at WR. Talent wise, ILB is obviously much weaker than WR but being bad at ILB is not nearly as bad from an overall team standpoint. It's sorta hard to find a "weak" group on a Super Bowl contending team; by their very nature those teams don't really have glaring flaws. Finally, Cobb is young. Not sure how he's not allowed to be a "youngster". Perhaps you view that word differently than I. I think youngster just means that Cobb is chronologically young and his career arc is still upwards, which is true. If you think of the word youngster as applying more to his working carer then I could see how that would be different (note, I'm not saying I'm right in my view, just that how we each see the word could make us both correct).
