Me thinks, barring injury, he's gonna have a ball playing center field and blitzing under Hafley. Just saw a highlight of X running down Tyreek Hill. R.A.S. my A.S.S.!
X should be an enormous help in dealing with LaPorta and in putting young QB's minds in the blender.
I watched every single New York Giants blitz from last season.

Then I watched every single Jeff Hafley blitz from last season.
It quickly became clear why Xavier McKinney is EXACTLY what the Packers wanted at safety.https://t.co/DhMRwBGziO

You can't beat classics, and GB's uniform is a classic.
Keep changing uniforms keeps the Pro Shop cash registers humming. Everybody has to have the latest and greatest.
Just don't touch the helmets, except for the throwbacks.
Clickbait article and most likely fake news.
I'll take results over mouth, please.
Let your play do your talking for you!
Notably absent from the group is Eric Stokes (IR - sprained jaw).

1.) He may be a little nuts.
2.) I strongly suspect him and Jaire will be spirit animals on this D.
3.) I also believe he's going to bring some serious mutha fuc**** attitude to this defense. Honestly, something I haven't seen since '09-10.
Done being humble with you Mf’s . Stop acting like you don’t know who I am or what I do . I AM HIM

Who thinks he can't play?!!?
My God....we all wanted him before FA started. Just weren't sure what the Pack was going to do.
So glad the handcuffs are off Gutey. He's cooking now!
If the NFL would only allow McKinney to wear 'I AM HIM' on the back of his jersey.

You know those teams that have good defensive secondaries and talk a lot of s***. And then they beat you. I want the Packers to be that team.

“He is a dude.”
That was Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur’s first impression of safety McKinney, an impression solidified through the offseason program and the start of OTAs.
“When he came here, when we signed him, when we went out to dinner together, I had a really good feel – just initial gut feel – that this is a dude,” LaFleur said at organized team activities last week. “And my experience with him up to this point is exactly that. He is a dude, and we’re fortunate to have him here.”
FYI Pendleton still sells that sweater, $269. Link below:
more on McKinney here, from Bill Huber
"It’s been fun from the team’s perspective, too. There’s always a bit of buyer beware in free agency because coaches and executives have little personal history with the players they’re courting. The talent is obvious on tape. But how will that player fit in the locker room?
In the case of McKinney, he’s matched – at least – the team’s hopes and expectations.
“Him and Ja(ire Alexander) are next to each other in the meetings,” defensive backs coach Ryan Downard said at the start of OTAs. “They compete, whether it’s in practice in the drills or in the strength and conditioning stuff, and he’s leading not only the safety group but the DB group as a whole with Ja. We need that. He helps the culture in the room, too, from the vantage point of toughness and practice habits and things like that.
“That is much needed and very much welcomed.”

Ja is a pair of dangling pearl earrings away from being my aunt Cloris from Kenosha.
You need to hook your aunt Cloris up with Herschel's uncle.
Gonna need a Ouija board...Aunt Clo died some years back.
Lynn Dickey was always the wind beneath her wings. And Conway Twitty.

In Wisconsin they call it "Schwagger."

Here's how McKinney was used in NYG, he played the highest % of snaps in single high compared to the other top- paid Safeties.
I think that's where Hafley will use him most
Meanwhile, the rest of the league is playing more 2-deep shells than in years' past

When this season is over I just have a feeling that this will be one of the most significant moves of the offseason
