On Perry missing time... "I don't think it helps any player to miss the whole off-season. ...Told the team about it today. Our coaching staff took a different approach... to get all that work done, nothing changes. You have the season to get ready for. To do it over a nine-week period and for a player to miss all of it, it's not a good position for a player to be in."

 

On if it's the foot... "He's injured."

Well, that's not exactly a ringing endorsement of where he see's Perry. Maybe I am reading too much into this, but MM sounds annoyed.

 

With CMIII however, you are hearing things like "getting better" "making progress" "will be ready for TC" and "coming along".

 

Contrast that with Perry, we're not hearing those things unless I missed something. And of course there is no doubting what CMIII is like when healthy. Perry has been consistently..inconsistent.

 

IMO, I don't know that even if healthy Perry would be penciled in as a starter. CMIII and Peppers would be the logical starters. Neal right behind them. Then I would guess Perry is to be a rotational guy to keep the starters fresh.

 

Does not  bode well for a 1st round pick. Let's hope the foot heals up fast

From the WTF category: Concussion... to a neck injury he denied... to possibly career ending?

Perhaps the biggest concern is about Franklin, the fourth-round pick from UCLA who finished his rookie season last year on injured reserve following a neck injury. The Packers are worried that Franklin's neck injury might be career-threatening. According to two people with knowledge of his situation, the Packers are putting Franklin through more tests to determine whether it's safe for him to continue playing. 

 

 

Even at that, Franklin appeared to lose favor with McCarthy even before his injury.  Assuming the injury rumor are not true, it wouldn't surprise me if Franklin was fighting for a roster spot.  

 

At least Harris seems to be back and healthy.  

GB tried Franklin at KR last year too, now its Harris' turn

 

If he is going to ber active on gameday, he needs to do more than # 3 RB duties

I like having a beefier KR too

Scott Tolzien with a couple nice throws to Myles White and Jared Abbrederis, pulling it down the sideline

 

 

Tolzien to Abbrederis...  A lot of people on this forum just wet their pants.

GB seems to be a hot bed for career ending neck injuries.  WTF?

That's exactly why.

 

QB & WR especially both have hidden talant that other teams cannot see or didn't take note or are afraid of his injury history.

 

Just another lap-faller for TT & crew.

Eddie Lacy picked off a Tolzien pass that went through Adam's hands in camp today. Eddie was playing safety. 

 

Bulaga was playing ILB. Bulaga dropped into coverage and started yelling "Bulaga Island"!

 

All that really happened. Seriously. WTF is mad Mike thinking?

And now we wait until July 25th.

 


McCarthy post practice:

 

Micah Hyde looks very comfortable as far as all the different responsibilities he's been asked to do.

 

We feel good about what's in. We also realize when you get back in training camp it's a different tempo. Competing for jobs.

 

Today's practice was what we look for. Younger players got a lot of reps that they didn't get. Scott Tolzien got a lot better today.

 


on Bulaga's offseason: All players coming off injuries you want to get back out there. Bryan's done lot of good things. Bigger, stronger

 

on Richard Rodgers: He was very productive. One thing that jumped out for a rookie in an offseason program.

 

I have some unfortunate news about Johnathan Franklin. Organization will address it tomorrow. He will not be back with us.

Probably a degenerative issue with his neck or spine. 

 

Sorry Johnathan. It's definitely a tough sport & there is no way, no how, they will risk any players long term health.
