That's why we need to spike his Schlitz with some THC for when he drug tests again....

What does everyone think about Jordy potentially being a H back in the future if he were to put on 10 or 15 more pounds? Regardless of who plays the H back next year it's going to have a large impact on the offense. Humphrey could fill in there as well.

roidrunner · 04-30-2008, 04:00 PM

id rather keep Jordy at WR. i think he has mre potential out there. my reasoning for this is our 4 WR sets. out on the field would be DD, Jennings, Jones and Nelson. seems like a solid group of WR.

Whats Robinsons status at this point? Jordy is a threat to overtake every value he has as a Packer. Special Teams and a 4th Wide Reciever..

I was kinda wondering if we ended up trading him for a 5th or something.

I don't think it's worth it to keep him as a 6th receiver and I could name at least 3 people I'd rather have returning kicks than him.

I need some input guys. So now that Brett has retired I cent wear his jersey on game day. I wear Hawk's for away games and used to wear 4 when we were home. What offensive player's jersey should I get? I was thinking Grant Jennings or Rodgers.

neko4 · 04-30-2008, 06:45 PM

Jennings, most likely to be on the team for awhile

Agreed, Jennings is the best bet without doubt. I think Ryan Grant could enter the conversation if he is able to replicate the form that he showed towards the end of last year.

Yeah. Avoid a Rodgers jersey at all costs or he will be jinxed.

tjsunstein · 04-30-2008, 07:13 PM

haha Im not sure about Rodgers being jinxed. It was originally going to be whoever was our first round pick this year but I shouldve known with a pick that low TT was gonna trade to stockpile picks. Im most likely going towards Jennings.

roidrunner · 04-30-2008, 07:56 PM

im going to buy a brohm jersey

AtariBigby · 04-30-2008, 08:15 PM

Buy Hawk, or Bigby!
Guys that will hopefully last and stay healthy for a long time........

I bought a Sterling Sharpe jersey in 1994, then he hurt his neck.
Robert Brooks..... knee.
Terrance Murphy.... neck.
Javon Walker..... knee.... then his ego.

Avoid WRs jerseys...

PS, I keep getting Cowgirl and Viqueen fans banging my rep !!!!!!!!
Those guys are girls.

what makes you think Bigby going to stay with the Packers? I would get a young talent that is signed for now and will be in the future, aka Greg Jennings.

Just added to show his amazingness. Its just sarcasm really because of the hype some people were giving him, especially some posters on this board.

Gay Ork Wang · 05-01-2008, 05:50 AM

Atari its not because they are girls, its because u act like a 2nd grader...

btw has Matt Flynn any chance of making the team?

AtariBigby · 05-01-2008, 06:57 AM

Will if not for the supersticous thing with injuries, I'd say Jennings, Jones, Nelson, and Grant are the guys to get. But don't forget about AJ Hawk and now Atari Bigby.

Why not get one of the rookies? I think Jeremy Thompson is going to become a good player. Hopefully Patrick Lee as well. Brian Brohm is good, but I believe in Arod.

He should make it as the 3rd QB.

Nah, he'll be on our practice squad though, as the team will surely sign a backup with some experience. You don't want to lose the season if Rodgers goes down by putting in a totally inexperienced rookie.

Our team is pretty good and we'd just need a veteran to manage the game until Arod gets back.

Rookies often lose ballgames in the NFL at QB....... although Ben Roethlisbacondoublecheeseburger did okay as a rookie with the talented Steelers team.

umphrey · 05-01-2008, 10:27 AM

If our 1st round pick and 2nd round pick quarterbacks can't get it done, do you really think we're gonna still be trying to salvage the season?

I have no doubts about Aaron Rodgers ABILITY.
I do have doubts about him staying healthy for 16 games.
If he gets KO'd in a game or two.... do you want a rookie going in there in a close game, when the defense will stack the line of scrimmage with 9 guys forcing that rookie to beat them?
Or would you prefer a veteran like a Trent Dilfer or Brad Johnson type to manage the game?

I've seen some atrocious rookie mistakes from QBs in my time...(yes I know Favre made them right til the end), so I'd personally prefer a seasoned vet to be our backup QB with Brohm #3 this season. I think THIS season, we are contenders.

roidrunner · 05-01-2008, 11:19 AM

Brohm will be able to handle the play book, i have no doubt about that. but i do not think this is his time to shine, i think next the 2009 season will be his. We need to sign a vetern QB. Flynn will be going to the practice squad.

ChezPower4 · 05-01-2008, 11:30 AM

Even if Rodgers struggles (which i don't think he will) I don't believe that MM would put Brohm out there this season and i think he would then compete for the starting job for the 09 season.

roidrunner · 05-01-2008, 11:36 AM

I think the only way brohm gets put in as a rookie is if Rodgers gets hurt, and with his track record of getting hurt, it might happen.

umphrey · 05-01-2008, 10:55 PM

Well yeah I agree, Rodgers will get an entire year before we pull him due to performance. I don't think this will be a debate during the season though, I think he will impress.

Brohm was a 2nd round pick and he was supposed to be one of the most NFL ready QBs in the draft. I think he is a guarantee as our #2.

At 3, I still really don't see a scenario where we go through Rodgers and Brohm and we are still trying to get to the superbowl.
