2.12 Green Bay Ground Hogs - WR Cody Latimer

In the real world: Latimer impressed everyone at the NFL Combine by benching the most reps by a WR with 23. He also ran in the high 4.3's at his pro day and also jumped 39 inches in the vertical. He was very productive on the field, catching 72 passes for 1,096 yards in 2013 for Indiana despite the fact that, hey, they didn't have much of a team around him. He brings his size-speed combo to a high-powered offense*. Note: He is still recovering from foot surgery.

*Never mind that he might not get to play a whole lot with Peyton Manning before Manning hangs up the cleats and joins CBS' The NFL Today as a studio analyst.
In the TUFF world: Green Bay's already rich, young wideout corps just got richer and younger. It'll be interesting to see, though, what the Ground Hogs will do at quarterback in Week 4, given that they passed up Derek Carr here, and Blake Bortles earlier in this round. Maybe they're going to use that A-11 offense the Detroit Vipers so successfully used against Arizona in Week 5 last year. Speaking of those Vipers...
