Packers 2024-25 Season Thread

I just can’t get on board with Tyler Davis on the 53. I’d rather keep Cox as an extra DL.

The TE/HB postion is a key piece of ML offense, Cox sat on inactive almost every game day last year. I prefer we keep enough TE to a meh DE.

Fine, then why not keep Pearson? Or another of these TEs? To me Davis has played his way off the roster. If you want him on the PS fine, but give that spot to someone useful.
 
typical packers. other teams releasing lists of waived players, but nothing from the pack.

Draft prospect report:

Overview
Upside quarterback with special parts of his game, but with no guarantee they will be assembled properly into a finished product. Willis uses his rare combination of elite rushing talent and a rocket-launching right arm to unlock explosive plays in two different ways. He has the arm to beat safeties to the deepest parts of the field and makes impressive throws from inside and outside the pocket. On the flip side, Willis' mechanical and operational inconsistencies lead to erratic timing and accuracy, and he doesn't throw with enough touch. Protection and receiver separation were both issues, but Willis also pressed over the second half of the season and never looked comfortable in the Liberty offense. On the pro level, additional film work and a layered, pro-style passing attack could allow for more focused reads and help him see the field faster and more clearly from the pocket. Play-callers must lean into his special talent as a runner and include called runs into the game plan. Even if Willis fails to reach his passing potential, running ability doesn't slump and he has the talent to produce on the ground at a level between Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson.
