The Packers’ race for WR jobs won’t just be based on who is best in training camp Training camp feels like the ultimate meritocracy Womens Brett Hundley Jersey , where the proverbial cream rises to the top (and is used to make cheese curds). Players do have to perform to get onto the field, but players with big numbers next to their names on the salary cap or with low numbers next to their name on the draft chart get the benefit of the doubt. Jaire Alexander and Josh Jackson ran with the starters long before they proved they were good enough to play there. Building a team is no different, which complicates the handicapping of the receiver battle being waged in the Green Bay Packers’ training camp because the best players might not be the ones to make the final roster. At least not all of them. This discussion, of course, centers around the man APC’s Paul Noonan dubbed “The Great Whitewater Hope,” Jake Kumerow. His ascendence as a reliable target and an Aaron Rodgers favorite muddies the already murky receiver waters. Before Kumerow broke out, a trio of rookies were set to battle Trevor Davis and Michael Clark in what was likely five players battling for no more than three spots. Davante Adams, Randall Cobb, and Geronimo Allison have the top three positions locked down for now.Clark made things a little easier on Mike McCarthy and the Packers front office by retiring early despite his estimable physical gifts. Meanwhile, injuries have prevented Davis from creating any forward momentum as anything other than a returner on this roster, so with two down, that leaves is with six players. However, adding in the 6’4’’ former UDFA who has proven to be one of the most reliable receivers in camp — full stop — could push one of these other promising young talents off the roster. Not so fast.The decision about who to keep and who to cut won’t simply be made based on who had the best camp or showed the most in preseason games. J’Mon Moore would have to be pretty bad to get the axe given his fourth-round draft position. Equanimeous St. Brown stands as the closest thing to a lock of the rookies, showing the most consistency with his hands and chemistry with QB1. Marquez Valdes-Scantling probably has the most pure athletic ability of the rookies, but he’ll make one “wow” play a practice followed by one “whoops” play. For all their flaws, each is more physically gifted than Kumerow. During a press conference Womens Justin Vogel Jersey , Brian Gutekunst said this week the rookies need time just to get in position to show their talent. Getting a receiver up to NFL is no easy task and Kumerow has a three-year head start. Of course he looks more polished. Here’s the rub for Kumerow: a fourth receiver (at best) won’t be the difference between making the Super Bowl and coming up short. Furthermore, the marginal difference between Kumerow and EQ, for example, isn’t big enough to give up on the younger, more talented draft pick. St. Brown isn’t making it through waivers. Neither is Moore, who had plenty of fans pre-draft.Could the tantalizing physical potential of MVS cause another NFL to scoop him up? Perhaps, but this is the first week of August. Every team has a player like him —a raw, unrefined pass catcher with upside—they’re trying to develop. What he looks like in three weeks could be drastically different, but there are also myriad players around the league with similar fringe roster profiles.Of those four though, Kumerow would seemingly be the most obvious choice to clear waivers. Teams have had plenty of opportunities to see him in camps and exhibition games and passed. Seemingly every year, Packers fans fall in love with a fringe roster receiver they know for sure won’t make it through waivers, and every year he does. More to the point though, how much better can he get? What is his upside relative to these rookies? Or even Trevor Davis? If the Packers had to play the Bears at Lambeau today, Kumerow would be one of the four best receivers, but they don’t. And what’s more, one game or one season won’t be the deciding factor here.The cagey move could be to keep all seven with Aaron Jones set to serve a suspension Blake Martinez Jersey , then cut one during the season once Jones returns. With rosters around the NFL more solidified, it’s unlikely a team would sign one of these guys outright, leaving only a practice squad bid. Brian Gutekunst could roll the dice that way, a reasonable gamble on what is already a fringe player.This is the NFL’s version of a champagne problem. What are the Packers to do with so many receivers? It’s a problem a team like the Cowboys would love to have. Green Bay drafted three guys because Gutekunst and company wanted more competition at the position. If nothing else, the nascent Kumerow should push these rookies to the brink. Though it’s hard to imagine he’d play well enough to actually squeeze them off the roster, Kumerow could force the Packers to make some very difficult decisions, to take a gamble. But the decision won’t be made with eyes only toward the 2018 season.The question isn’t just “Who can help the most this season?” but rather “Who can help the most over the next two or three season?” So long as these rookies show progress, it will become harder to argue Kumerow’s reliability with a lower ceiling makes more sense on the roster. All three rookies should be better a year from now. Green Bay wants to win the Super Bowl this season, but they also want to win it next season and the year after that. Unless Kumerow is the missing piece to that run (he’s not), is his reliability worth losing the upside of these other players? The Packers track record with draft picks and young players suggests they would say no. Behind the defense’s first shutout since the 2010 season, the Green Bay Packers cruised to a 22-0 win over the Buffalo Bills to improve to a 2-1-1 record. A pair of interceptions and an unexpected seven sacks against rookie Josh Allen paved the way for the Packers as the offense struggled to get into a rhythm once again with off-target passes and drops. Still, an important home win for Green Bay sets the stage for its next NFC North battle with the Detroit Lions next Sunday.Sitting alone atop the division remain the Chicago Bears, winners in amazingly lopsided fashion over Tampa Bay. An unforeseen offensive output from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, paired with a relentless defense, helped Chicago enter the bye week with momentum. Meanwhile, shaky defensive games from the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings led to losses that provided cushion for Chicago and Green Bay in the standings. Both the Lions and Vikings enter a pivotal week of adjustments in preparing for strong offenses in week five.Today’s rundown takes a look at some of those areas needing to be cleaned up as the NFL schedule crosses the quarter-season mark.Chicago Bears (3-1)Won 48-10 vs. Tampa Bay; Bye nextBears defense excited to see offense shine: ‘It feels like we’re a complete team’The Chicago defense was no slouch Womens Mason Crosby Jersey , intercepting three passes against Tampa Bay. But it was a six-touchdown, 354-yard passing performance from Trubisky and the offense that stole the headlines on Sunday for a surging Bears team.Column: Bears’ romp made possible by Bucs’ horrific defenseBrad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune takes a little bit of a different approach to the offensive explosion, citing the Buccaneers’ defensive faults as a key to Trubisky’s big day. Tampa coach Dirk Koetter called the performance “horrific,” along with some other attention-grabbing quotes.Chicago Bears’ torrid defense shows no signs of cooling offThree interceptions and four sacks helped lead the Bears’ defense in an impressive showing against the Bucs. A promising offense through the air in the first three games was held to just 251 passing yards on the afternoon.Detroit Lions (1-3)Lost 26-24 at Dallas; Next vs. Green BayRECAP: Lions at CowboysSlowing Ezekiel Elliott proved too tall a task on Sunday, as the Cowboys’ running back almost surpassed 100 yards both rushing and receiving. Meanwhile, the Lions had three receivers step up, while T.J. Lang missed some action once again.Lions defense fails, wasting a massive day from Golden TateThe blown lead looms large over what was a dynamic performance from Tate, who hauled in eight catches for 132 yards and a pair of touchdowns. His showboating after a go-ahead touchdown was addressed, however.Jarrad Davis’ pass coverage cost the Lions a possible win in DallasIssues in coverage continue for Detroit’s middle linebacker, who gave up a key reception to Elliott late in the contest. Davis’ issues as a rookie have not yet been solved.Minnesota Vikings (1-2-1)Lost 38-31 at LA Rams; Next at PhiladelphiaRams Outlast Vikings in a Shootout, 38-31A thrilling offensive game concluded with the Rams on top, as Minnesota’s defense was gashed for a second consecutive week.Vikings coach Mike Zimmer: Probably never been this poor in pass coverageMore on that defense that allowed 556 total yards and 465 yards and five touchdowns via the passing game. Head Coach Mike Zimmer and several players were distraught about the team’s defensive woes following the game.Mike Zimmer says Everson Griffen won’t return to Vikings until at least Week 6After a personal incident last week, Minnesota’s star defensive end will sit out the next several weeks with the Vikings’ support.
