But he's an intriguing candidate for slot CB if the Packers were building an interstate.
For those following camp closely. Please confirm Blake Martinez is actually gone and has reported to NY. Like. Actually seen in NY. And that all materials from his old locker have been removed and burnt on tribal territory to cast away the juju.
Ouch. I though he gave them a good run for a fourth-round pick.
As if there's a problem with the current Rodgers that dances around the pocket, hangs on to the ball too long, takes sacks and misses receivers way more than a QB at his salary and talent level should. Pfffffft.
Rodgers has always been able to throw to a spot on time pretty much anywhere on the field. I think the only thing that lets that play work in a game is if Begelton has the speed to earn a big cushion from the DB.
Begelton had to have emergency surgery post practice. To have his lips removed from 12's ass.
Packers return to Ray Nitschke Field for their second practice at 10:10 a.m. CT tomorrow.

Matt LaFleur, Rashan Gary, Elgton Jenkins and player(s) TBD will speak with reporters afterward.
Looking forward to see what Gary can do in his second year (I'm optimistic).
The Packers wanted more slash plays from their inside backer. Well, Christian Kirksey just got the first INT of camp. He zoned dropped and read Aaron Rodgers perfectly. https://t.co/GcW5VsM2W3

A.J. Dillon only had 21 catches in three college seasons, but there was a belief he could be a natural receiver. #Packers coach Matt LaFleur on Dillon's hands: "I think he's definitely shown an ability to have natural hands. He can reach and pluck it out in front of him."
Packers OL coach Adam Stenavich was San Jose Stateâs OL coach when Tyler Ervin was there. Matt LaFleur said Stenavich has been in his ear about using Ervin more on offense.

I agree. It's like criticizing Brad Jones (7th round pick), Geronimo Allison (UDFA), or many of the other late round picks or UDFAs. They had limitations that made them fall in the draft. If they didn't, they'd have been high draft picks.
We've talked about it ad nauseum, but the Packers having two guys that were UDFAs and playing at close to Pro Bowl levels during the Super Bowl run 10 years ago was one of the main reasons they won it all. Normally, to find CBs that good (Shields and Tramon) you have to draft them in the first or second round. I think TT thought he'd continue to find a few guys like that and constructed his team accordingly. That didn't work out.

Josh Jackson's legend was built in large part off of consecutive Big 10 games in 2017. In the first of those games, he had 3 interceptions against JT Barrent of Ohio State. In the second, he had two pick 6s against Alex Hornibrook of Wisconsin. Iowa played zone and Hornibrook just drew some ducks towards him. That was the 13-1 team that only lost in the Big 10 title game against OSU despite Hornibrook throwing 15 picks that year.
Other than that, he had 3 other picks his entire college career (and two were against the early season cannon fodder teams (North Texas and Wyoming).
In other words, Alex Hornibook made Josh Jackson a lot of money.

The criticism doesn't come from the fact they were UDFA or low round picks, it comes from the fact that they weren't very good ...and played a lot.......and it took too long to find someone better.
Martinez would be fine if he had other ILB talent around him - problem was he was our best ILB . That will expose your defense at critical moments.

I think we agree. It's not their fault they were forced into roles they weren't good enough for because of front office failures.
Tryouts for three LBs?
Burks bulks up.
Who?
One of the guys getting a tryout is Reggie McKenzie's son.
Plays on the OL but has had reps on the DL before.

I don't like it. Let the kid be one of the best guards in the NFL, don't fuck with it.
The start of an important fourth season took a potentially dangerous turn for Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Montravius Adams on Tuesday.
Adams, a third-round pick of the Packers in 2017, was carted off the field with an apparent injury during Tuesdayâs training camp practice.
In his noon presser,
Matt LaFleur on Corey Linsley missing practice and injuries to Bakhtiari, M. Adams and Z. Smith:
"You guys know I'm not gonna give you any of that info right now, right? Those guys right now, just precautionary. Nothing major there."
#Packers DL Montravius Adams, who cut practice short today, suffered a sprained toe, source said. Something to watch, but it doesnât sound serious.
â Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 18, 2020
Now, whether fans buy this or not is one thing. But considering the Packers didn't draft a WR in what was arguably the deepest draft at WR in over a decade likely says they understand MVS' issues were largely physical:
MVS says his knee injury only lasted a couple weeks. His ankle injury bothered him much longer: "The ankle kind of lingered, especially with my position, doing a lot of cutting."
â Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) August 18, 2020
It's the baseball equivalent to "he got lasik in the off season"
Second padded practice begins at 10:30.
Linsley and Bakhtiari are back. 
@AaronNagler
Packers just updated their coverage guidelines for the media. We are now not allowed to mention who is getting reps with the first team, second team, third team etc., or who is being used in certain packages or if players are rotating among positions. Brave new world.

Ridiculous attempt by the team to micromanage the media.
@DanGrazianoESPN
Yeah, it seems pretty widespread. Again, very disappointing if NFL teams, coaches are using the pandemic as an excuse to enact media policies they wanted to enact anyway. If that's what's happening, it deserves to be called out. If not, it would be good to hear the reasoning.
