Bye Kaleb Johnson

KJ will get a chance to contribute in Green Bay. Suspect Jacobs gets suspended for a good stretch. Lloyd is unproven. LaFleur runs similar rushing principles as Iowa does. I still suspect KJ will be "meh" but he will get his chance to make an impression.

 

Antonio Brown was a 6th round pick. Just sayin'.

 

Worth noting that it's in 2028, not next draft.

Nice to get something...but this is probably as close to nothing as we'll see in the NFL.

 

It's true. You played, so you know. Occasionally, you come across a player that is just different. They are uber talented. Bigger, stronger, faster, more athletic in every way. The are far better than everyone around them. Then that player goes to the next level, and they can't even see the field or don't make it at all.

I golfed competitively and played against a player that eventually became a pro on the PGA tour.

My cousin was a safety that played for the Steelers briefly. He started for the Oilers for one season, and he started one season for the Chargers and the Bengals before signing with the Steelers. He had a nice career in the NFL.

Most of these guys were dominant players at the high school level. They were great at the college level. Then they become pros and they are just another guy or a serviceable player. They are still just as awesome as they were the first day you saw them, but they are now a little fish in a big pond. It's really humbling being an athlete when you think about how good they were, yet they weren't great players at the NFL level.

The best of the best are just different, and even once you become a pro there are a handful of guys that everyone looks at in awe. They are freakishly great at what they do.
