Summer practice is over! Those EXCITING pre-season games are history! HOORAY!
Now, what does the 53 man roster look like & what can we expect??
Tonight I will begin with the offense - 25 players.
Quartebacks (2)
Aaron Rodgers 6'2" 225 lbs California Year 15
Tim Boyle 6'4" 232 lbs Eastern Kentucky Year 2
Aaron. Year 15 & one Super Bowl! He NEEDS more, at least 2! So, of course #1
Stay Healthy! Does he still have it. Last couple of years do not seem to show it. Was
the McCarthy-Rodgers partnership that toxic? They always said NO, I say YES. Just
as a fan, body language, interviews, facial expressions to me indicated a struggle. So. my
prediction, if they win a couple early, great things to come. If they go 0-2, watch out!
Physically, we have not seen Aaron on the field, watch closely this Thursday!
Tim Boyle. One issue the last 4-5 years, if Aaron was out we had NO chance. In the
pre-season, Boyle looked good, but only time will tell! He has the size, the arm strength, but
in the regular season????
Wide Receivers (6)
Davante Adams 6'1" 215lbs Fresno State Year 6
Marquez Valdes-Scantling 6'4" 206 lbs South Florida Year 2
Geronimo Allison 6'3" 202 lbs Illinois Year 4
Jake Kumerow 6'4" 209 lbs Wisconsin-Whitewater Year 2
Trevor Davis 6'1" 188 lbs California Year 4
Darius Shepherd 5'11" 186 lbs North Dakota State Year Rookie
We have an All-Pro type of receiver in Davante, now, can the 5 others get open & catch the
football? First, love the size of these receivers. Second, they seem to have plenty of speed. And,
Kumerow looks like a "Jordy" type - a play maker. Trevor Davis is a big play ready to happen!
Valdes-Scantling size & speed! Geronimo has an AWESOME name and was looking good
at the beginning of the season last year, before injury! And, new kid on the block, Shepherd
has some speed! Now, can they make Aaron happy?? Again, Bear game is a start!
Tight Ends (4)
Jimmy Graham 6'7" 265 lbs Miami Year 10
Mercedes Lewis 6'6" 267 lbs UCLA Year 14
Robert Tonyan 6'5" 237 lbs Indiana State Year 2
Jace Sternberger 6'4" 251 lbs Texas A&M Year Rookie
Jimmy Graham, what is left in your tank??? Last few years, NOT so much. Mercedes,
same question big guy! Tonyan has looked good. Rookie, Jace Sternberger - unknown.
Looks like, in the red zone, Graham & Lewis, run 10 yards, turn around, catch the ball!
My questions, can the crew run the seems, get over the middle. NEED THESE GUYS!
Offensive Line (9)
David Bakhtiari 6'4" 310 lbs Colorado Year 7
Brian Bulaga 6'5" 314 lbs Iowa Year 10
Alex Light 6'5" 309 lbs Richmond Year 2
Corey Linsley 6'3" 301 lbs Ohio State Year 6
Lucas Patrick 6'3" 313 lbs Duke Year 3
Lane Taylor 6'3" 324 lbs Oklahoma St Year 7
Billy Turner 6'5" 310 lbs North Dakota State Year 6
Cole Madison 6'5" 308 lbs Wisconsin Year 1
Elgton Jenkins 6'5" 311 lbs Mississippi St Year Rookie
This to me is the KEY!! In the years we had consistent, no injuries line play, we were
awesome!! So, BIG GUYS - stay healthy & protect Aaron!!! Bakhtiari - All Pro, Bulaga,
STAY HEALTHY, Taylor, you need to play well, rookie Jenkins breathing down you neck,
Billy Turner, new guy adds some swagger & Corey at center, All Pro recognition?
Running Backs - (3) & Full Back (1)
Aaron Jones 5'9" 209 lbs Texas El-Paso Year 3
Jamaal Williams 6' 213 lbs Brgham Young Year 3
Dexter Williams 5'11" 212 lbs Notre Dame Year Rookie
Possible break out year for Aaron Jones! Do not get caught speeding with marijuana
in your car! Williams & Williams pound out yards!!! Need a 1000 rusher & a break away
threat!!!
There we are, 25 players! This offense needs to be a TOP FIVE OFFENSE this year!!!
Goals
MVP - Aaron Rodgers in the hunt
1000 yard rusher - Aaron Jones
1200 yard Receiver - Davante Adams
Jimmy Graham - 15 TD's!
Win the turnover battle 12 of 16 games!
STAY HEALTHY!
