Confessions of a Polluted Mindset: A Packers Column

While I admit to never having been much of a Jason Spriggs fan (dating back to when I panned him in the CHTV Draft Guide), I still hoped for the best when the Packers selected him (after letting out a blood-curdling "Nooooooooooooooooooooo"). One would hope that with the proper coaching and weight training at the NFL level, he could correct some of his flaws and develop into a good offensive tackle. He was certainly athletic enough, having garnered my coveted "Best in Shorts" Award among offensive linemen at the NFL Combine.

Alas, playing pickup basketball in shorts with his buddies is likely where he belongs, because he has certainly not progressed enough to belong on the line protecting Aaron Rodgers from getting clobbered.
