Jermichael Finley as our TE would be nice.

Dorsey would snap this guy up I bet.

Jermichael Finley Uncertain About Future With Green Bay Packers

http://www.onlinesportsbookpro.com/f...n-bay-packers/

Heading into the off-season, the Green Bay Packers are on the verge of a drastic changes with the team planning on letting a few of their best players potentially hit the free agent market in March. The Packers appear content with letting these players go with promising young players coming up in the organization.

One of the players will most likely be on their way out of Green Bay is tight end Jermichael Finley. Although considered one of the best tight ends in the game last season catching a career-high eight touchdowns and quickly becoming one of Aaron Rodgers’ favorite targets in the end zone, Green Bay doesn’t seem intent on retaining the up-and-comer with Finley set to become a free agent next month.

Finley’s receiving yards may have improved by 100 yards with 776 in comparison to 676 in 2011, the tight end’s targets in the end zone dropped off considerably with only two touchdowns opposed to eight touchdowns last year.

One of the main reasons for Finley’s decreased value and lack of interest from Green Bay is his inability to catch passes consistently. Although Finley may still have a promising career in the NFL, the consensus appears to be that he’ll be playing for another team next season.

Along with Finley on his way out of Green Bay, the Packers will likely also part ways with two-time Pro Bowler Greg Jennings. The team will build around up-and-comers James Jones, Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb rather than signing Jennings long-term.

It remains uncertain moving forward what the interest will be in Finley on the open market. At 25-years old and the league starting to see a rise in Pro Bowl caliber players at the tight end position, Finley will definitely have some takers, but probably won’t be paid the amount desired.

It's ****ing dumb.

Baldwin is about as polished as an 80 year old door knob. But, he also wasn't used for what his actual strengths are. Partly because he's a big long strider who needs a while to get up to speed and we didn't really have a use for a deep threat cause we had a shit fart turd at Qb.


That said, I'm not even sure Baldwin would excel at that.

Just because you're a TE doesn't mean you don't need to get separation from defenders.

He could get separation from Linebackers.

i think he would

its essentially get him in 1 on 1 coverage deep, throw it as high and far as you can and hope Baldwin uses his size to beat whoever is covering

asking him to run an actual complex route to convert a key 3rd down or go over the middle, forget it lol

I mean really, thats what he was drafted to be. A big deep threat. Deep posts, deep outs etc.

Whats awful, is that we drafted him to do something that we weren't able to do, because we don't have someone to get it to him.


He needs to be used similarly to Vincent Jackson, (and no, he's not Vincent Jackson)

I reserve any and all judgment on Jon Baldwin.

That said, I no longer have confidence in him. Here's my equation:

only two seasons + shit QB + shit coaches - ***** drafted you = one more year on a very short leash.

not saying Jon Baldwin but I dont even think some of these Scooter picks make it out of this years training camp

I'd say thats a pretty accurate statement. Even if they mostly didn't suck shitballs, with a new FO, gonna be alot of change.

156 catches. 2,017 yards. 12 TD's.

Vs.

41 catches. 579 yards. 2 TD's.


Dwayne Bowe after two seasons, with shit at QB and shitty coaching.

Only differences are that ***** didn't draft Bowe, and that Bowe actually has talent.

No more excuses.

It's a known fact that a Thomas Jones ass whipping sets a man back two years.
