    Roquan is a great player but he had some really odd situations pop up that make him seem… maybe a bit of a headcase? Maybe that’s too harsh. Between his rookie holdout, Saint Omni, and remember that week or two stretch in 2019 where he “had not been acting like himself around the team facilities” and then just missed a game for personal reasons?

    So yea, signing all rookies is a good thing. Doesn’t mean all 10 will be great, but it at least avoids a red flag right off the bat.

      I still think if Roquan doesn’t hold out, we win the opener vs the Packers in 2018. Rodgers picked on Kwiatkowski over the middle the whole second half. 13-3 instead of 12-4 means we get a first round bye and the double doink never happens. So in my head canon at least, Roquan’s holdout had a huge impact.

        Great point. I tend to remember Kyle Fuller’s dropped interception that hit him right in the numbers that game. Thank god bad man Rodgers gone.
