Packers Davon House: 2012 Player Evaluation and Report Card
Davon House
1) Introduction: When Davon House was selected by the Packers as the 131st pick (fourth round) in the 2011 NFL Draft, he was one of the lone defensive players drafted by Ted Thompson that year. After the monster season by Woodson, Williams, and Shields, he was looked at as more of a future cornerback prospect. The hopes were that he could oust the underwhelming Pat Lee and Brandon Underwood.

3) Expectations coming into the season: Coming into training camp, Davon House was in the heat of a battle for starting cornerback opposite Tramon Williams. His primary competition consisted of the infamous Jarrett Bush, the fallen Sam Shields, and the raw Casey Hayward. Throughout camp, House kept proving his worth and his ability in the starting role, but a shoulder injury shot that chance dead. While he would eventually be able to play with a harness, the injury would keep him out for the first six weeks of the season.
