After what some Green Bay fans would call a boring start to training camp, things have really picked up with these injuries. Here is our review of what we have seen in the Packers preseason so far.
Aaron Rodgers- Mr. Universe played the first two games in of
the 2015 preseason before throwing in the towel until week one of the regular
season. He look good, sharp, and ready.
Brett Hundley- The 2015 preseason for Hundley has been
typical of a 5th round rookie with lots of talent. Shows a play
where all of his talent comes into form, and then looks like a deer caught in
the headlights the rest of the set of downs. Future is bright for Hundley
though.
Matt Blanchard- Even though he has no chance of making this
roster, Blanchard has played hard, and has showed his big arm. He could end up
on the Packers practice squad, unless someone picks him up. Point is, he is not
done with the NFL after this training camp is over.
Eddie Lacy- Lacy has 15 carries for 68 yards this preseason,
and looks ready to go.
James Starks- James Starks performance this preseason has
us worried- 13 carries for a measly 16 yards, but at the same time, it is just
preseason.
Rajon Neal- Rajon Neal has all but locked down the third
running back job. He has looked outstanding both running the ball, and on
passing downs blocking.
Jeff Janis- This man has had an amazing camp, and the
Packers are going to need the former Saginaw Valley State standout to grow up
fast with the Jordy Nelson injury.
Davonte Adams- Davonte Adams has had a very quiet camp, and
with the injury to Nelson, look for him to take on a more perimeter-oriented
role in this offense.
Myles White- If there was ever an example of why you should
never give up, it is Myles White. Towards the end of 2013, Myles White career looked
over with the Packers receiving unit returning to full strength. He returned to
the practice squad the entire season a year ago. He has a had a great camp, and
with the injury to Jordy Nelson, he could make the week one roster. As the 5th
receiver.
Richard Rodgers- Here is another young player who has had a
quiet camp. However, expect Rodgers to take a big step forward in 2015
regardless of his quiet camp.
Sam Barrington- The former seventh round draft choice
has locked down one of the inside linebacker spots and is quickly becoming a
leader for this defense.
As far as the rest of the defense is concerned, we not
going to over-read into their performance on Saturday. Aaron didn't play and
they are still trying, as a team, to get their minds right following the Jordy
Nelson injury.
