Round 3 Pick 94 TE Josiah Deguara

Packers TE Josiah Deguara 'looks fantastic' in return to practice

“Deguara looks fantastic,” LaFleur said Thursday. “Looks like he picked up right where he left off last season. It’s really good to see him out there.”

Don’t be surprised if Deguara, a natural H-back candidate, plays a meaningful role for the Packers in 2021. The team thinks he can be an asset inline at tight end, in the slot and in the backfield, providing positional versatility and pre-snap deception.

“He’s such a savvy, smart football player. There are so many things he does that are tough to coach,” LaFleur said.

Lafleur needs to settle down. Don't anoint him before he plays any meaningful football

Never let them know you love them.

That's the key to raising children as well.

Why not? That kid is so good! We never really got to enjoy him last year.

I'm thinking you are Lafleurs subconscious

Why not?

Because he’s not a “weapon for Aaron Rodgers.”

Neither is AJ Dillon.

Pump the breaks on the Mesiah. There was a guy on here a few years ago who wouldn’t STFU about how how great EQSB would be. That turned out well.

Was that guy Matt LaFleur?

No. She knows who she is.

OUCH!!!!

Sometimes an injury steals the soul of a player.

Man, I thought that was Satan. Or beer-swilling Mormon fishermen...

Looky.

YA made a (little) funny.

Another take

Literally written on an 8th grade essay assignment level. I don’t have time for stupid shit like that and I’m retired. Who has time to find that crap?

(raising hand)  Oh Oh, I know, I know.

Arnold, is that you?

Thinking more like Radar and The Soldier of the Month.

10 years earlier.

While that maybe wasn't Furman Bisher-worthy, I didn't think it was that bad.
What pisses me off is it's not me getting paid by some media company to share my opinions that doesn't seemingly require a lot of effort to produce!

Wait, you're not getting paid?

Shhhhhh.

It is called "a failure to accumulate". 

But if back hair was currency……

I will be a Deguara fan when he shows a higher level of consistency and playmaking... so far, it seems to be more hype than performance.

Drafted in April 2020, tears ACL in Oct '20. Just now entering his 3rd NFL season.

Many were quite excited with what he showed during his limited rookie year. I'm interested to see if he builds on his '21 season.

Hate speech.

Yeah it feels a bit like he's the Oren Burks of the offense. Another guy who was rated as a 6th round talent that was drafted way too high.

Needs to make significant progress this year, especially early with Tonyan out for a while.

TE Snap Counts:

Week 1: Lewis 23, Tonyan 22,  Davis 15, Degaura 15

Week 2: Lewis 31, Tonyan 27,  Davis 21, Degaura 15

The dropoff in quality from the top 2 TEs to the #3 and #4 TEs is massive.  And frankly our top 2 TEs are probably only average at best.  Definitely wish they could have gotten more help here at some point.

Week 3 snap counts: Tonyan 36 (of 62), Lewis 22, Davis 19, Degaura 9.

On the season, Degaura has 2 catches for 28 yards (Davis has 3 for 29).

Wonder if MLF views Davis as the superior blocker (or player) of the two, if he is just losing faith in Degaura, or if the role he originally envisioned Degaura fulfilling has just not come to fruition?
