One of our better ST players for sure...also very useful as a substitute on defense when the need arises.

Interesting to hear your comments Aaron regarding Jack Vainisi. Years back I spent a week up in Canada on a fishing trip with his brother Sam who is from Chicago.
Here is a link depicting the unavailing of the Jack Vainisi Memorial near Lambeau Field with his brother Dr. Sam Vanisi speaking a few words: https://www.packersnews.com/videos/sports/nfl/packers/2015/07/29/30856309/

Aside from being a solid ST player - he often seemed to be around the ball when called upon as a LB. Also in every locker room victory speech by MLF - he was always front and centre cheering on everybody. So in summary: good ST player + good depth LB + good team mate = a good signing

Special Teams players have to be active on the 45 to play, which means they have to be able to play a position well enough that you can put them on the field.

Is E Wilson that good? I guess we'll find out, but I'm curious about your opinion. I think he did ok on defense, just going by the eye test.
