But we gotta wait and see if this chemistry in practice translates to the Game.

Hester is the only receiver whose job is set, everyone else is up for grabs so all the others rotate to get equal snaps but with so much emphasis on Hester as a #1 it should be no surprise he takes every snap with Cutler.

was this:

Fifth-round draft pick Johnny Knox looks like he’ll contribute immediately. He has world-class speed and has caught everything thrown his way. He could wind up having a significantly better season than third-round pick Juaquin Iglesias.

’’He’s not going to be held back from playing because of not grasping [the playbook],‘’ Turner said. ’’We’ll call what he knows when he’s in there if he continues to play as he has.’’

Steal of the draft?

2 Tight End sets aren’t going to save him, he NEEDS a compliment #2 if hes going to take that next step. The one thing that worries me about these recievers is that there isnt much size to show for. I do think Knox will contribute (great prediction Hovanec, called it before the draft, Most impressive) but I think hes more suited for the slot. My guy this year that Im hoping has a breakout season is Brandon Rideau. This guy DOES have legit size at 6’4" but for some reason has had trouble getting on the field despite promising training camps and preseason games the last few years. Too bad Mike Hass got released from the practice squad between him and Rideau they’ve always impressed me the most every time I went to training camp last year. We need size to match up with the tough physical secondary of the Packers.

You have to be able to get off the line of scrimmage and if they are jamming you at the line and your recievers dont have enough size or strength then that will delay your routes thus causing sacks, turnovers, etc… The Packers are notorious for jamming at the line of scrimmage, if you take a closer look at the 2 Packers games last year Hester got a crash course in physical play at the line. Now I will admit the THREAT of a deep ball was not there by any means last year so maybe just Cutlers presence alone will help give Hester a little more room to work with and if thats the case I totally agree with you.

But it might be a transition for Knox, I know hes fast and shifty but to pencil in Knox as a starter might be a little too soon. I cant imagine hes seen too many quality DBs at Abiliene Christian like the NFC North or the NFL in general has to offer. Knox is quickly climbing up the charts in media and fan attention but we all still have to remember hes only a rookie and we all saw how hard of a transition it was for Earl Bennett last year (just learning the playbook alone). Although I do believe Knox’s 4’3" speed will get him on the field faster than Bennett did last year.
