ROUND 3 PICK 94 - WR TY MONTGOMERY (STANFORD)

If he can get down field and block like Cobb and especially Jordy Nelson in this frame…he'll be worth the pick

 

Well I have read that Montgomery is a hell of a blocker.   

 

I am critical of this pick but now that he's a Packer, I will be rooting hard for him.  He has the size, strength and speed that could make him a hell of a WR, the type that we don't really have on this team right now.  He can return punts and kicks, is a great blocker, and has the attitude that you wish every player had.  

He's Josh Cribbs, guys. We have our kick returner. Let's hope we can develop him into a WR too. 

 

I sure hope we didn't use a 3rd rounder on a specialist.  I'm guessing the plan is for him to fill some type of role on offense.

He's built like a RB and I can see MM using him in the backfield like he did Cobb. I like the pick just on the basis of adding some badly needed juice to the kickoff return game.

Exactly. All you really need to know right here.

Sorry guys, I am not liking this draft.  I really wanted a hockey player in the 3rd.  WTF Ted?

Like after the 2010 season. That would have been awesome.

 

Will Rodgers even throw to a guy from Stanford?

What does Will Rodgers have against Stanford?

I have it on good authority that special teams and WR ability are secondary for Montgomery.

 

He's our guy to crack back on Suh's ACL. He won't see a WR coming. 

 

We must pay our bills, and that's one receipt that will be paid.

 

Just kiddin...I'm not that way...unless I'm drinkin.

Updated depth chart:

 

WR	Jordy Nelson	Jared Abbredaris	Jeff Janis
LT	David Bakhtiari	JC Tretter
LG	Josh Sitton	Garth Gerhart
C	Corey Linsley	JC Tretter
RG	T.J. Lang	Lane Taylor
RT	Bryan Bulaga	T.J. Lang
TE	Andrew Quarless	Richard Rodgers	Justin Perillo
WR	Randall Cobb	Davante Adams	Ty Montgomery
QB	Aaron Rodgers	Matt Flynn	Scott Tolzien
RB	Eddie Lacy	James Starks
FB	John Kuhn

I'm assuming Flynn is off that chart

I disagree about the ST costing this team a SB trip.

The end of that game did not hang on any one of the 3 groups of this team. it was a collective meltdown.

 

If you've got an hour to spare....good video. Even used words that TT would love in that this guy is "a football player". He's got big hands and they conclude that his drops have more to do with concentration rather than bad hands. Having Kevin Hogan as his QB did him no favors as well.....yikes that guy is bad. FLashes good route running potential, just needs more development there. They also said they have him as the best YAC receiver in the draft

 

Looks like a perfect kind of weapon to add to this offense and should be a dynamic returner at the very least

Seems like he could bring a dimension to this team that Devin Hester (2nd round pick) did for the Bears...as a receiver maybe get 40 rec/600 yds a season but is a game changer on KR and PR

I think play calling cost this team a trip to the SB but feel free to pick your scapegoat.

 

When they sit down to fix problems from last year I think there's a lot more that can be done about their annual post-season 3rd and long 3 man rush than a fumbled onside kick...or maybe talking about ways to hold a lead other than perfectly executed 3 and outs.

 

But the good news is the NFL is constantly talking of ways to expand the return game, so KR/PR promises to be a more and more valuable position every year.

 Just say it, you know you'll feel better afterwards.

 

" We should be more like the vikings"  

Randall Cobb out of the backfield.  

I guess TT's genius includes a 3rd round KR before a ILB.

Huzzah! Bearbite is back!  Now I have more lame dental office humor to rip off!

I agree what a dum dum.  If only he'd have traded for, and given a crazy long term deal to, Cutler.  

The Bears draft their kick returners in the second round

 

#micdrop

The Bears definitely need WRs in the 1st round.

 

 

You know, to help with blocking.  

Probably a better option than their current Oline.

Marshall traded to the NY Jest.  So just a bit of a need there. Thanks for living under a rock while that happened.  When  Montgomery has a career like Hester get back to me, until then you got ZIP and this is a highly dubious pick especially with the rule change that took KO returns almost out of the game.  Of course maybe GB does need help on KOs.....

 

Why did it have to be Doug Buffone and not you?

Classy in the Packer fan tradition (myth).

Buffone brought warmth and merriment to the eclectic Packer fanbase after a Bears trouncing.

 

You just make me want to empty out my fancy pocketbook to the Boys and Girls Club.

Thanks for confirming my post.

 I live such a fancy lifestyle that I just toss my expensive dishes out the window when I'm done with them and buy new ones. Cleaning things is for the common folk.

That is how I deal with socks, wear 'em one day, out they go.  Yeah, we're living big!

 

Yup. Huge area of need.  WR.  For sure.  Bears are gonna roll now.

 

And, you know what the best part of it is?

 

The Packers roster is so good, he could be a disaster, and they'll be just fine, and, if so it won't impact the Packers in the least while they are curbstomping the Bears again next year.

 

 

 

The 'caption' at the bottom of the first pic!

Black hockey players don't grow on trees.

Aside from returning kicks, he has the build and backfield experience to be a #3 RB, he can be a gunner on coverage units, and he can play WR in a pinch.

 

That's pretty good overall value at the end of the 3rd round in a weak draft.

 

I like the fact that he hangs onto the ball here and shakes off the big hit like it's nothing.
