I like McGinn's quote on him. Great athlete, one of the best, just can't play football. At all.
Maybe Taylor Mays is a good comparison. Just not good for the Packers.

Good clip. Do you know Arran Davis or Thomas O'Brien? They're good friends of mine from high school. Too bad how Thomas' career ended.

Lair could be a sleeper, he has some decent talent and is pretty darn fast but had horribad quarterbacking to work with. We're so deep here though i doubt he goes anywhere...
Bennett wouldnt be able to find and get through a hole in the pro bowl. hell hed have a hard time finding one with no defensive line against him. Apparently he put up some beastly bench reps, maybe he'll be a blocker? or a lineman?  |
I really like Lair. Looks like a smooth route runner and decent blocker.

Gonna be hard for him to get a spot. |
Yea he'll prolly put on a good show but we're too deep there, likely get picked up elsewhere though!

lol he needs to have at least a year on PS. To learn how to be more of a football player then a athlete. I hope he develops into a good one. You dont go to Vandy without having some types of brains, He is ahead of Mays there at least. lol

Like that line in bold. Might use that one at some point.
Anyway, agree with you on Lair. By far the best "player" of that group as of right now IMO. Bennett was a tough one. But looked solid in the early stuff before he got a little beat up. Not sure he is a player either. But like him more than those other RB's and I'm not a Saine guy. With a year in, I would be the first to tell you odds are very high Saine's the guy though.

LOL.....agree!
I know more guys that looked at him as a 40 Will than I do at safety. That boy has no feel for the game, AT ALL!

Hey Buddy, I hope all went well for you this weekend. Im sure it was very busy. It sounds like for the most part, you are happy the way the draft went for us. We appreciate your wonderful input!!

At 216 lbs? And I thought we had to find 230 lb Jamari Lattimore a whole lot of sandwiches... |

| I'm stunned that Ted Thompson didn't go after Brandon Bolden when he wasn't drafted. Seemed like a perfect fit right there to me. |

I'm stunned that you would question the White Wizard.
Seriously tho, was he even signed by anybody? I don't see him on any of the UDFA signings lists I've looked at. If not, that's pretty telling.

I think he may have been taking time on his decision. Rumor is that he is going to the Patriots. Just seemed like a perfect fit for Ted in terms style/ numbers... would have made a lot more sense that Tyler.
EDIT- Guess I was wrong about the Pats. Reportedly he just signed with the Redskins. That's a good pick-up for them IMO. |

Brandon Bolden would have been awesome for the Packers. I had him as one of my most underrated players in the 2012 draft. He'll stick somewhere.

Lets be honest. If you were an UDFA RB, would you sign with Green Bay, knowing they don't run much?

then again, since teams will look to shut out the passing game, you will get your chances (probably not a ton) at RB to make some BIG plays.
