Ranking The Rookies: Mike Daniels

Undersized fourth-round draft pick made some big plays for the Packers in 2012 The Green Bay Packers began the season with 10 rookies on the 53-man roster.

Green Bay Packers: Mike Daniels and the Legacy of Number 76

Amid all the Packer training camp hoopla the big number 76 in the photo on the Post Crescent sports page caught my attention last month before the Family Night hoopla struck, served with coffee and a smile in the friendly confines of Old Glory Cafe, bastion of patriotism in beautiful downtown Kimberly.   I remembered: Mike McCoy.
