A home run hitter? Someone you can give the ball to, and, at any moment - go the distance?
Tony Dorsett, Gale sayers, OJ Simpson, etc. Do we have one?
A hammer? Some one that gets that tough yardage! 3rd down and 1! First and goal from the 3 yard line! Punishing tacklers! Do we have one?
We did Eddie Lacy, and John Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuhn!
A "Swiss Army Knife"? Darren Sproules. Marshall Faulk, old Packer Ahman Green...
Do the Packers have one?
The answer to all these questions.................................................MAYBE!
Here is what we have:
My answer is:
Break Away Threat - Aaron Jones
Swiss Army Knife - Ty Montgomery
The Punisher - Jamaal Williams
First, Ty Montgomery! STAY HEALTHY! Converted from wide receiver, the experiment continues! He has the receiving ability! He has enough size to run the ball. He is a smart kid, Stanford! And, in interviews is a class act! Do not know what the Packers are thinking, but I would move him around! Outside & inside! Run & Pass! 1st, 2nd, or 3rd down! Screen Passes! Swing Routes! One on one with linebackers! BUT, his durability is suspect! Maybe, play 10-15 downs a game!!!
Second, Aaron Jones. Our deceptive runner. Good speed! 4.56 in the 40! Suspended first 2 games -
Packers running back Aaron Jones just got punished for his October arrest -- driving while high on weed -- and it's gonna cost him driving privileges for 6 months.
Jones was initially pulled over in Green Bay on Oct. 1 for going 79 mph in a 55. During the stop, the officer smelled weed.
And after Jones bombed a field sobriety test, he admitted on camera "I was smoking it."
The 23-year-old was initially charged with operating a vehicle with a restricted controlled substance, speeding and operating without a valid license. In exchange for pleading no contest to the weed charge, the remaining 2 charges were dropped.
Along with losing his license, Jones will have to pay a $1,047 fine and undergo drug assessments to make sure he doesn't mess up again.
So, we hope Aaron Jones has learned his lesson! And, we hope he is a break away runner!!!
Third, Jamaal Williams - last year?
- After moving into the starting lineup in Week 11, posted 672 yards from scrimmage over that span (No. 11 in the NFL) and 455 rushing yards (No. 10). Registered 100-plus yards from scrimmage in four of the final six games.
Now, the 3 headed monster, needs to be a THREE HEADED MONSTER!
Devante Mays & Joel Bouagnon. Last year, Devante Mays was behind Jones & Williams, so, Mays has a lot to show us this summer! The new player, Bouagnon, is an unknown, a little background:
How about high school!!
Was a two-time all-state, all-area and all-conference running back at Aurora (Ill.) Christian High School and Burlington (Ill.) Central High School…Compiled 1,475 rushing yards and 21 TDs as a senior…Had six carries of 20-plus yards and 215 yards in the state quarterfinals during his senior season…A two-way player, was named defensive MVP as a senior after racking up 119 tackles at CB…Earned MVP honors in the 2012 Illinois 3A state championship game after posting 95 rushing yards, two TDs and 11 tackles…Was named team MVP each of his three years at Burlington Central…Is fluent in French...Name is pronounced joe-ELL bwon-nyo...Lives in Modesto, Calif. …Given name Jöel-Alexandre Balou Bouagnon…Born in Pomona, Calif.
Now, what impressed me? Is fluent in French!!! Wee Wee!!!!
Best case scenario? Montgomery stays health & turns into a versatile weapon! Williams is a BEAST. And, Jones is not arrested & becomes a threat!!!!
