2for3champ 0 Posted August 22, 2006 Drew Bennett had some very good games when Volek was at the helm a couple years ago....he may be a good 7th or 8th rounder. Any thoughts Tenn homies? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhostofMeanMachine99 1 Posted August 22, 2006 yup And so far in the preseason, he hasn't had the dropsies. LJ looks very strong. I really can see him catching 5 balls a game this season easily. What's nice about this year is LJ has finally gained the confidence of both Reid and McNabb, so much so that Reid has designed a few TE screen plays for LJ.

swamp dog 0 Posted August 22, 2006 How'd Donald Driver and Javon Walker work out for you? I hope you didn't buy that hype. Favre pulled 3 1000-yard seasons out of Billy Freakin' Schroeder a few years ago but he was never hyped that much. Every freakin' year? Name the 7 Packer receivers the last 7 years that have been overhyped. if any idiot drafted walker and driver as rookies--like idiots here now are suggesting they'll do with jennings--those idiots were rewarded with numbers around 28/350/1. ditto rookie chad johnson. and all 5 rookie wrs in round 1 last year. i hope to god idiots listen to you. then i can laugh while they beat their heads against the wall all season because they burned a mid-round pick on jennings in a re-draft league. i've owned plenty of packer players over the years--favre numerous times, green, levens, bubba franks, freeman, driver, etc. i have no problems drafting a packer player if i think that player will help me win in ff. no problem whatsoever. but anyone who drafts jennings this year and expects the rookie jennings to put up good ff numbers is an idiot. you play the percentages with rookie wrs. and the historical data and the percentages say do not draft rookie wrs in a re-draft league. the end. THere were never reports anywhere that Chatman was going to take Driver's job... He's a 5' 8" world league receiver and a kick returner who had 7 career catches to match a bunch of studly seasons Driver had put together. YOu're silly to insinuate anything else. Driver was a 7th round pick who bloomed late. Nobody (even in GB) knew who he was until he broke out in '02. Ferguson was never predicted to be the #1 guy for four years . You are nuts. So you're saying Walker went for 1350 and in the same season Driver went for 1250 and all the hype out of GB was over Ferguson's 200 yards ? Are you making this sh!t up? Mayes and Bradford were backups. I don't know who told you to draft them, but as a GB fan I could have told you that it's a bad idea. the guy has a legitimate point. it's rather convenient for you to poo-poo all the packer rookie wrs in the past decade and infer that jennings is magically different and special and the hype of him is unique and fresh and groundbreaking. er, right. we've heard this all before. many times. that doesn't prove jennings will or won't be successful, but it is a distinction that needs to be made.

Sho Nuff 720 Posted August 22, 2006 Running Back Arliss Beach looked good. He comes with a good resume of NEVER fumbling in college and he catch the ball out of the backfield. I think he'll pass up Herron on the depth chart and I honestly think he has alot more to offer than Gado. Gado has been working some at FB as well with Henderson injurred and Vonta Leach sucking out of the backfield as a receiver. http://www.packersnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/a.../608220470/1989 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sho Nuff 720 Posted August 22, 2006 There were reports in '04 and '05 that Antonio Chatman was going to take Driver's job because he was so freaking awesome and he and Favre had such a good rapport. It's just manlove coming from the Green Bay media and I'm not buying into any of it. Driver will put up good numbers this year. Ferguson will put up OK numbers. Nobody else. As another said...where were there ever reports that Chatman would do anything? Same for Ferguson? The guy was never hyped as a #1 guy. Ferguson is not even a lock to make the team at this point...so I would not say he will put up Ok numbers just yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremy 0 Posted August 22, 2006 those who draft him this year expecting consistent ff production his rookie year are going to be sorely disappointed. history is against him. he had 1 catch for 5 yards last night when it mattered and dropped a crucial third-down ball (first half). do the research: a vast majority of rookie wrs blow. i haven't seen anything from this kid that would cause me to confuse him with randy moss. next year? could be worth keeping an eye on. but i saw a ridiculous post that said he'd be gone this year by round 7 in a league of packer homers. ridiculous. I wrote that, and he went in the 6th round. That is rediculous. I think he'll have a nice career, but that's way too early for a rookie based on a couple nice preseason games.

Brad GLuckman 519 Posted August 22, 2006 It's too early to tell if Jennings should be drafted right now. I don't think GB has a clear cut #2 right now, and everything depends on that. If it isn't Jennings, then Swamp is right, he doesn't warrant a draft pick. But if he does end up the #2, then he could put up some decent stats. Now I'm not positive on this, but I'm guessing most rookie receivers don't start at #2 their rookie seasons, which would result in their poor fantasy #'s. So if Jennings does start, for a Packers offense that will most likely throw often (even though MM is big on running) then he may be a good late round pick. Can we all stop fighting now?

phillybear 366 Posted August 22, 2006 For value, LJ Smith. McNabb has throw alot of balls his way so far. If the young WRs can't step up this year, he (along with Westbrook) will be the primary target in the passing game. I haven't seen him rated in any top 5 for TEs this year, but I can see him putting up top 5 TE numbers. Completely agree. I grabbed him in a couple of drafts already.

jerryskids 6,793 Posted August 22, 2006 but anyone who drafts jennings this year and expects the rookie jennings to put up good ff numbers is an idiot. you play the percentages with rookie wrs. and the historical data and the percentages say do not draft rookie wrs in a re-draft league. the end. Amen, brutha. Nothing personal against the Packs or Jennings, but hell I'm in a keeper league, and I've drunk the koolaid on rookie WR hype early in my FF career. Even year 2 is a risk, although less so for a keeper league. Still, I tend to wait for year 3 or beyond for WRs. Completely agree. I grabbed him in a couple of drafts already.

Corey Bradford is one name that I have heard some buzz catching up too, but jeez, I thought that he had retired or just died. He hasn't done a thing since he bolted from GB and with that mess in Detroit, who knows what the hell is going to happen. If I recall correctly the only guy that has really played well in the past 10 years at WR besides Roy was guys like Scotty Montgomery, Kircus and that Martinez guy...you know all the affordable guys that just played hard and got the job done. But Kitna is another one that no one is really talking about. He usually does just enough to tease a team into thinking they can make a playoff run, but stat wise the guy has put up a few pretty good seasons. In that offense he could be on par with a mildly retarded version of Marc Bulger. Not calling Kitna retarded or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
