Jonnu Smith most disappointing player?

I wasn't expecting him to put up similar stats to what he had last year with Miami over 80 receptions 800 yards and 8 TDs. But him and Rodgers don't seem to have much chemistry together he was supposed to be good after the catch, and for some reason Arthur Smith has Jonnu playing more snaps than Muth. And to think they added another year to his contract when they traded for him .

 

I looked and saw that he has 26 catches and thought ...WHEN? The guy is invisible. Only 163 yards though, that sounds about right.

 

Most disappointing is Broderick Jones

 

Most disappointing is Slay for me. I thought we'd get a quality year out of him, but he's been bad. Thornhill too... from starter to cut. Johnson is another. Thought he'd push Gainwell for RB2 snaps, but he barely looks like an NFL player at all.

 

I swear some of these guys are just safety blankets for Arthur. Same as last year with bringing in guys that played in Atlanta for him and they saw the field a bunch but served very little purpose. Patterson would flash at times last year but others he got put in cold in unfavorable positions like 3rd and 8 and the run a draw to him which went nowhere. If the ran 2TE sets with both Muth and Smith and motioned him out to the slot or part of a trips stack I think it would be less of a tell for defenses but as it is Smith is the 2nd read most time for Rodgers and its usually on a 4 yard dump.

 

I had no expectations for Slay and figured he would be another Pat Peterson.

 

Slay should be observing Pierre right now. If you have little talent or natural skill has diminished you need to rely on technique and training. I have my issues with Pierre but he knows he can't out skill more talented WR's so he focuses on doing the right things to be in position to make plays. Slay still thinks he is top dog and can get by on half ass effort.

 

Jonnu Smith would be my close second. As far as disappointing players go?! I'd probably have to give that to D.K. Metcalf.


Given how he has still yet to fully connect with Aaron Rodgers, this late in the season?!.. man... not a good look at all. Really thought he would open up the Offense a lot more. At times, he has. More often than not though?! Not nearly enough.


As for Defense?! Initially it was Keeanu Benton but now it is Alex Highsmith. His production has still been solid but his injury history within the past two seasons is definitely something to monitor. His ankles have taken a beating the past two seasons. It is fair to wonder if Alex has lost some flexibility given how he is 28 but a 28 year old EDGE with such mileage in such a short amount of time.
