Former NFL players Tazim Wajed and his son Tré Watson share insights on current topics, the Green Bay Packers, the NFL, and insider perspectives of the game.
Loves 75 signing bonus and 2 voided years means Love's cap hit are nothing over the next 4 seasons. 2024: 20 Mil 25: 29 Mil 26: 36 mil 27 42 mil Overall his cap hit is 12th-19th. He had the best QBR, PFF, comp% TD to int ratio in the second half of last year so is at least a top 2-5 QB already but are paying him like a mid to below mid QB per the cap hit. So basically Joe Burro (before the injury) production but paid like Geno Smith. lmao
Can't argue with Tre's top 5. I do think Mr. Miller has something left in the tank and something to prove. I think he will make a difference with the Bills this year.
GB strongest position groups: 1.) QB: Love is a 98 overall and that's all that matters. Pratt looks to be a Matt Hasselback level backup. 2.) Safety: Mckinney is a 95 overall and Bullard is the best S in the draft. I give them a 90 overall. 3.) OL: J Love wasn't touched at all in the playoffs and over the last 5 games they dominated in the run game. I give them an 90 overall. 4.) Receiver: 1-5 is the best receiver group in the NFL. A healthy Watson is a 97 overall. Wicks takes a bump in year 2 for a 90 overall. Reed and Doubs are in the mid 80s and BO is in the high 80's. I give them a 90 overall also. 5.) CB: JA is a 92 overall when at full health. Ballentine and Valentine allowed a 50% comp% against them last year both in the top 5 in the entire NFL. This group qas number 4 in man to man coverage last year and Jeff calls more man to man than any other DC. I have them as an 88 overall. 6.) RB: Jacobs getting to full health in his prime and is a 92 overall. Lloyd is the best RB in the draft. I see him as a potential O ROY this season. I give this group a 87 overall. 7.) DL: Rashaan Gary before his injury had a 90 PFF. Now that he's 2 years separated from the ACL injury I expect him to return to his old form. Smith is a consistent 10 sack a year guy. I believe Lukas Van Ness takes a jump and jumps Smith this season. Qyatt is going to lead the NFL in pass rush qin rate but finish at a much higher rate than last year. Kenny Clark is one of the best all around DT's in the NFL. I give them a 87 overall. 8.) TE: Muscgrave, Kraft and Jones have Sims are all second year players and second year players take high jumps at the TE position. I believve last year as a group I'd give them a 70 overall. I'll give them a 77 overall as a group this season. 9.) SPT's: I think Nixon is again an all pro especially qith the rule change. Reed is going to dominate at PR. They have a great punter and I believe qith the adjustments and competition in camp Carlson goes from a average at best kicker to an above average kicker. 75 overall special teams I have them going 13-4 getting the SB dub Love SB MVP Love MVP Mckinney D MVP (top 5 in votes) Lloyd ROY Top 4 in votes Bullard ROY Top 3 in votes MLF COY All Pros: Love, Mckinney, JA, Nixon, Tom, Gary,
Tazim I disagree,.... as far as the "when do" question goes,..... happens all the time with defending a punt return followed by having to go on defense or offense....... I do think Oline and Dline could be fine with killing the 40 and just measuring the shorter bursts,.... but what you see as a detriment is also a plus for players in the back of the line who these tests help move them up a round.
You hear the term managing assets thrown around all the time. I think Green Bay has so many unique assets at the majority of positions. It almost seems the pressure will be more on the veterans then it will be the rookies. Kind of like it was last year. Seemingly. Otherwise, I agree with you guys that Bullard will have some pressure, when they find that fit for him.
Let's get down to the real issue here though... how do we get those gold jerseys into the alternative uni rotation? I've been waiting for those all gold everything alternative unis for years! Love the show fellas!
I couldn’t agree more with Tre’s MVP & breakout assessments. Protect Jordan & Scoot stays healthy with all these other weapons, plus a deep RB group, this offense can rival the greatest show on turf. A healthy Scoot & Muskgrave will shock the NFL with deep balls. I cant wait for this season to begin with all these new additions. GPG!!!
My favorite linebacker of all time is Lawrence Taylor in his prime. He was the first player that made me ignore the offense and just watch him … on every play. Hoping Cooper is a reincarnation.
And he’s officially our Luke Kuechly, Ray Lewis, Von Miller combined together with the level of play those type of players that were old school kinda type that is all hard hitting! But! He can play in weak zones and QB spy so damn well! Just watching him tackle hard! He’s a MONSTER! Reminds me a lot of Ray Lewis! Even Cooper himself has learned from LBs like Fred Warner and Ray Lewis is physical wise that he has similarities with that he will bring!! So for him to say that tells us we’ve never had a LB like that since Matthews! Sure Walker is close to that but Cooper is different, he’s more aggressive! But Walker can learn from Cooper and bring some of those similarities but we’ve got our LB that’s an old school tackling machine but he’s the definition of what a LB truly is and how they need to play it in today’s generations of LBs
Great first show, gentlemen! Tre's insight and experience with this new kickoff format is invaluable and gives you a unique perspective! I can't wait to see Nixon this year! Can you imagine starting the season with a TD return followed by a pick 6 to go up on the Eagles? Wishing you success with the pod! GPG!!!
Unc Hit, I can't believe peter Bukowski and others think DeJean should play CB at first, Mel kiper is saying Coop is like the number 2 or 3 CB in the draft...To me CB is his secondary position. I saw him a little stiff when turning and agree with you, I think he is okay playing some slot with bigger 6-3 WR or TE's...But he would be an excellent box safety and 30% of the time he could play high post, because Hafley likes versatility in both safety positions
I agree 100 with your take on Quay let him attack. I really like Coopers ability to play in space and make plays. I also like Sed Grey and Wallace at LB just real good ball players. Thanks for the video my brother
THANK YOU for talking about his skills. Why does the other thing matter? He’s not perfect. But he is GOOD. I’ll be in Odebolt with our family excitedly awaiting the call. #hawkeyeforever #wouldntmindthe steelers
Kamren Kinchens would be an awesome breakdown. I know you’re a fan of the player on the field, but his testing was shockingly poor at the combine! Hitman’s Breakdown would be 🔥🔥
Thank you brother for making this about the young man and not about the elephant in room. This kid is a baller and I'd love him in Green Bay. Thanks for the video
We need that attitude on our Line. Zach Tom is a great player but doesn't have a mean streak at all I think. Rasheed is a badass but kindof a goof ball. Elghton has that dog in him, but we need a guy that will be with Jordan for the next 10 years having his back in everything. Cooper Beebe or Zach Frazier could be that guy imo.
