Interesting video thanks. It seems like GB needs to do something at WR. I just don't see TT trading draft picks. But ya never know. TT may have a surprise for us. Certainly opposing Ds can load up underneath. Hurts the passing game and the run game. Janis is not the guy.
I don't see why they don't have Janis run one of those deep posts all the way across they field off of play action seems like even if his route running isn't very good he should be able to do that
Haven't seen any of the other wr run that route. Only Nelson I don't think any of the rest are fast enough. It's essentially a race diagonally across the field which someone who is faster than most should theoretically win especially with the aid of play action gaining them a step. Or maybe they are fast enough but for whatever reason we haven't run that play once this year and I feel like it was a go to play in the past. The play action shot play to Nelson.
See what bears want for Jeffrey lol!
I have to believe he could run a drag route, he ran one for a td against the Rams in his first pre season. I haven't watched ever game but I haven't seen them run it at all success full or not. If they have Rodgers didn't throw it deep down the field as he did with Nelson in the past. It's not oversimplified you run a certain number of yards straight up the field then you cut diagonally across the field certainly not rocket science I don't understand how one could be incapable of it.
Knowing TT, he will pick up some street free agent that was working in a grocery store, but sometimes those pickups work out big time!
He's got two extra 4th rounders this year. I could see it happening.Interesting video thanks. It seems like GB needs to do something at WR. I just don't see TT trading draft picks. But ya never know.

He is speculating that the Packers will receive two compensatory picks in the 4th
round for losing Tramon Williams and Davon House in free agency. The compensatory
picks aren't announced until after the season, but given the contracts they received
two 4th rounders or a 4th and a 5th appear to be reasonable.
That's a good point and I just don't see TT ever trading or otherwise parting with draft picks. Unless it's draft day itself and even then he usually trades for more picks. There have been some notable times when he traded up - I think he did that to get CMIII - but that's different than trading for a fast but aging WR who, to your point, would require a $7 mil cap hit that can't be done anyway.None of these rumored trades will ever materialize. Even if Thompson would be interested in Jackson and fine with giving up draft picks the Packers simply don't have the cap space to acquire him as he would count roughly $7 million against the team's cap by trading for him now.
Very well said. Reporters need to come up with something to get us riled up. This idea of trading for a deep threat doesn't hold up. And trading a pick means giving up years of productive time for a guy, if it were Jackson, who only has a year here anyway. No thanks.Adams is coming back soon, Montgomery has shown nice upside, Jones has been perfect as a filler for this year, R. Rodgers has been a solid contributor, and Cobb has been banged up with a bye week soon to rest up. So far with some injuries, issues, Lacy's struggles and facing a few pretty decent defenses we're still a top 5 scoring offense so far.
A couple down weeks on offense doesn't necessitate a drastic trade for an expensive veteran WR who has never played a down with Rodgers.
Even at 5-0 I'm all about looking for ways to improve the team but this is unnecessary.
