RJ is the easy choice, but the more you think about it, the more Vraa and Shep sneak up on you. A lot of their clutch catches where part of sustained drives or not at the end of a game, but were just as critical.
I'm surprised and pleased that out of that group Shep is so far looking to have the best shot at an NFL career.
Shep's game winner against UNI with a shoulder shot up with meds to just play one half, if one hell of a gutty story.
Pretty amazing how low key all of these WR's were throughout their careers considering the typical WR.
" Our strategy for winning against BISON was simple, we put our WRs and RBs in a 1 on 1 situation with their defense in the backfield.....everybody knows they have some freshman who cannot tackle in a 1 on 1 situation.....Joe Glen"
Packers GM just said that Shepherd has been a nice surprise and has earned more opportunities.

For those of you who really want to read between the lines, the GM also stated that availability and durability are not only talents, but also skills that need to be developed. He said that getting out there each and everyday is part of being a professional. Shepherd’s main competition for a roster spot is Trevor Davis. Davis has been injured since the preseason opener and Shepherd has been fielding punts with the 1’s on special teams.
