my first thoughts are that it will be someone who is able to help on STs, esp. after losing wright. it will either be a returner or a gunner.

i do think there are some interesting options out there that could do well as a receiver. victor cruz with the giants is leading the NFL so far in yardage, TDs, plays over 20 yards and 1st downs. he's also 2nd in receptions behind jordan shipley. cruz might be headed for the practice squad....seriously. they don't need him and he's competing with ramses barden for a spot on the 53 man roster.

zona has a couple decent options as well. max komar and andre roberts. komar has done pretty well and andre roberts (from the citadel) is a very good punt return prospect. both of them are fighting for the 5th receiver spot. onrea jones is also someone that has looked good. now andre roberts is a 3rd round pick so he might be pretty safe but they really don't have room for komar and/ or jones.

any one of those guys could be better than what we are looking at for the 5th or 6th receiver spot.

as a punt returner, brandon banks for the redskins might be hitting the WW as well. he's an interesting possibility that has a good bit of potential. he had one return that ended up being a 77 yard TD but he's also had two fumbles.

still not sure Moore makes more sense than Jarrett to keep.

Jarrett's in the last year of his contract, and I feel pretty confident the Panthers won't be resigning him.

So if we go with Smith, LaFell, and then pick up another receiver who (I'm assuming) is a better option than Jarrett, then that will leave the remaining receivers with very little targets. Why keep Jarrett in that role if we've got some other guys (Moore, Edwards, Gettis, etc.) that may have more of a future than Jarrett?

      Hoping you guys keep it up

      By X-Clown · Posted

      It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).

      I'm sold on the NFL being fixed.

      Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️

      Cam on ‘The Bank’

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
