Has to be before Jan 28 1999 as Reinfeldt did not return.
Highsmith and Brandt hired in 99 as well.
FYI - I am fairly certain the identification of Red Cochran is correct. Hard to believe the guy was an assistant coach for most, if not all of Lombardi's years in GB and was still there as a scout for all of Wolf's years in GB. I think he only left for the few seasons that Phil Bengtson was HC.
The legendary Red Cochran story is the draft where Red pulled Bart Starr aside and told him the best guy on the board was Joe Montana and we had to draft him. When Starr failed to get Joe, Red yelled and threw his clipboard across the room, hitting the wall. Starr just looked down and didn't say a word.
Bart Starr was a hell of a player but simply the worst GM and coach you could have gotten. Forrest wasn't any better. They could play for Vince but they couldn't run shit like Vince
Rhondi Barber gets no laughs
hoping at least three of these guys begin the season as starters. if that happens it means the product on the field has improved. if most stick that means depth has improved too. the db and wr rooms are sure gonna look different this year.
KY your story is telling.
Maybe it's just that (simple) and why in the end the Packers just fail to nail their Draft picks.
BIG EGO's will too often prevail and cause FRUSTRATIONS..

So what did everyone think of Goot Goot's first draft? What's the vibe?
It was a weird draft.
B-
Decent job
Now if past 6 years we have taken one OLB in rounds 1-3. In today's NFL that is crazy...and the one we got sucks
He has to mitigate Ted's f'cked up draft in 2015 when we pissed away rounds one and two taking CB's and most likely did a good job with that.
It's shocking to me that we drafted 3WR's and one Edge Rusher. Hopefully two of the 3 WR's turn out.
He's no Eliott Wolf but I think he did a decent job
Time will tell
I give the draft a C just like I do with every draft immediately after it's over. As in let's wait to see what these kids can do once they actually step on the field. All of these pre-draft prognostications and grades are a frickin' joke because the vast majority of them end up being wrong. Being a draft guru is like being a meteorologist or economist...you can be wrong 90% of the time and still be considered an, "expert".
I agree that it was a weird, weird draft...
Exactly zero pass rush help??
Drafting the worst ILB player/best ILB athlete ever, lol... WTF?? I hope they can coach Burks up and make a player out of him, but from what he did in college he needs to be looking for a job in insurance. Terrible player, just terrible.
This looks like a TT draft with a little more competence... I'm not encouraged about our future now.
Very disappointed in this draft.
C-
Wasn’t everyone super pissed when Thompson drafted 3 rbs last year? How’d that work out?
Are you saying Gootie did a great job with the three WR picks ? Or just using a past example to make a backhanded point.
IF you are take a look at our 15 draft and how'd that work ? And fwiw I'm NOT saying Gootie made a bad call and it will turn out like the 2015 draft did..
But if we couldn't bitch and argue about the draft what in the world would we post about in here ? lol
I'm not upset about 3 WR's. Truth be told it seems many had our 3rd WR rated as well or higher than the other two. So assuming he was a value pick and they snatched him because he was rated way higher than everybody else.
I'm fine with 3 Wr's. But disappointed at the lack of pass rush.
That may bit us in the ass again
