Seriously, roster Watkins, Lazard, Cobb, Doubs, and Watson. No one else is earning a roster spot. I'd rather roll with these 5 and keep an extra DL or S than keep 2 more WR bums.

AR name drops Watkins as a standout in the joint practices.

When's the last time you saw a Green Bay QB run like that? :lol:

Yeah, AR called it, right before it happened, during the interview. ;)

Etling had an 86 yard TD run against the Giants a few years back. PATs even tried him at WR at one point. Interesting guy to have as your 3rd QB.

It's really his only weakness. He's just REALLY bad at it. He gets to the ball, is usually in the right spot, is a solid ST contributor... but then he just doesn't finish. Like at an alarming rate.

And like a WR who can't catch, not much use for a LB that can't tackle.

We should have cut Summers over that no-name LBer (Ellis Brooks) we cut a few days ago, the dude couldn't have been worse than this guy.

Second penalty on Enegbare; one on STs. Red zone horse collar. Clean it up, rook.

He's a Top 53 guy to me.

Well...

1. I have more hope that Love can replace AR in 2023 or 2024.

2. Outside of Doubs, none of the WRs are earning a spot.

3. Goodson needs to be our game day 3rd RB.

4. Special Teams did not look special.

5. Chris Slayton will be a hard cut; no way would I cut Slayton to keep a 6th or 7th WR. Slayton will be picked up off waivers whereas none of our WR cuts would be.

Patrick Taylor doesn't impress me running but good pass blocker and made some tackles on kickoffs

Abernathy #46 the new safety great interception and great screen play

Chris Slayton another strong game.

Defensive backs held up well overall.

Special teams has stuff to work on, but that is what preseason is for.

Love played a lot more than I thought. Potentially this means Love won't play as much next game because Rodgers plays?

No tight ends stood out to me, and wide receivers I was not as impressed with overall.

Pass blocking will be key for RB #3. We know Taylor can block, but can Goodson?

(Either one would get cut in favor of a healthy Kylin Hill.)

If the plan is to have more 2 RB sets I wonder if the Pack would roster 4 RBs.

Interesting decisions for the staff come cut down time.

The only reason we shouldn't keep Slayton and Slaton is that this forum (and the rest of Packers fans), will keep mixing them up; and it will annoy me.

Mostly agree, except 1) you have a lot more confidence in Love to be a capable starter than me, 2) Winfree might be worth a roster spot, but depends whose spot he would take on the 53
