Not very.
While Hayward has a nose for the football, we’ve noted on several occasions that he’s a shitty tackler. And the Packers need another shitty tackler on the field like you or I need a hole in the head.
Now, it’s also been pointed out to me that we used to think of Sam Shields the same way. He hasn’t exactly turned into Dick Lane, but Shields isn’t the liability he once was. So Hayward is going to get his shot and he should get his shot.
The refrain remains the same. He said he could start outside last offseason and he’s saying it again.
