Packers Huddle

Sounds like we got ourselves our Savage upgrade, folks!

Only up from here!

this makes it seem a bit better, or just not as worse as the PFF grades, probably mean the same thing, but Amos slot at 21 sounds better and Savage at 32 I would presume is the worst starting safety.

I always try to correlate coverage issues to pass rush success, vise versa, and once we lost Gary last season, our rush became sporadic, so getting him or more consistent pass rush back translates to better coverage, or it should.

for the top 10 safety's according to Dalton Miller for PFN.com , never heard of him, but he does a good review of the top 10 safety's last year, Hydes at #8, read about Tyrann Mathieu at #7 and how it relates to us letting Hayward go ( APB made a solid point, management at times do crazy things)

Love to see it:

I got roasted by lots of folks for wanting to keep Hayward and Hyde. I get why we let both walk. But both were a mistake. Kind of validating for me, considering I know Jack squat.

Watson's speed rating should be like 98, with Tyreek Hill being the only guy ahead of him. Nobody catches homeboy from behind.

Bo Melton actually trained with Watson pre-draft and said that Watson has been timed in 4.2s, and from what I saw last year, I don't doubt it for a second.

I had to laugh at a tweet from Tej Seth. I guess he’s probably a Lions fan. But see below.

AJ Dillon (among running backs with at least 800 carries since 2020):

- tackle for loss rate: 4.4% (1st/42)
- explosive rate: 4.4% (42/42)

If you need 3 yards, he will get you 3 yards and if you need 5 yards, he will also get you 3 yards

There is some truth to that and some good humor too. I got a kick outta that one. But some cold or wet weather, there’s entirely a different story about Dillon. He’s really tough to tackle when traction slips. (Pun intended.) And he’s still very good catching screens or dump offs. Who wouldn’t want this guy in the open field running over CBs and LBs? That’s an easy call. Hahaha.

I saw SI post a stat that when D Campbell finally got going after injury last year that the Packers D only allowed over 20 points zero times in the last five games. Was Devondre such a player to inspire our defense to step up after he was injury-limited much of the year?

If so, if this guy remains healthy and Quay steps up a notch, would our D be a sure top ten unit?

We would look for better production from several guys on the D. And add LVN to the mix.But the main thing is that they step up more as a unit. Joe B has a job on the line. I hope that he is motivated to work like that’s the case AND that he can motivate the D like their jobs are on the line too.

The only things holding this D back from being a top 10 unit is injury, Joe Barry, and the safety position. And I'm a believer that Savage could pull his head out of his ass.

The talent is there.

The way Barry plays his defense safeties don’t matter that much. It really comes down to how weak he makes his corners play which to men doesn’t make sense in a shell defense. You want your CBs somewhat aggressive considering the safeties are back there.

Hopefully there is improvement from Quay and the DTs. If the run defense doesn’t improve throws is another mediocre defense. You secant be 2 shell playing in 2nd and 3rd and shorts all game. Doesn’t make any sense.

Madden doesn’t care about Jayden’s 40 time.




Also, how does one get that job, be on a team assigning Madden ratings to all the nfl players.

Maybe he could bring Sternberger with him too. Who knows? Maybe Jace has also found his way by now.
