Biggest needs to me are safety and I would really like to find a tall, strong, ILB that can cover TE's over the middle.

Do you like this guy?





" With his close-cropped hair, fierce forward lean and an intimidating glare that all but transmits a red aiming dot to his intended target, the 6-foot-3, 245-pound (Max) Bullough comes from the mold of the iconic middle linebackers that pop into our consciousness without even having to say their names."

Comment wooodbuck27:

I want Ted Thompson and his Draft Staff and Green Bay Packer Scouts to have one word in mind as the focus for drafting over the next few years.

That word is TOUGHNESS !

I want to see TT draft prospects that play TOUGH and MEAN !

I'm aware of this:

For incidents that occurred in the 34–30 win over the Green Bay Packers in week 3 of the 2013 season, (Vontaze) Burfict was fined a total of $31,000.[39] He had hit a defenseless receiver (James Jones) and struck an opponent in the groin (Ryan Taylor).

So many Packer fans didn't see prudence in picking a College Prospect like the Bengals Vontaze Burfect !? The entire NFL missed on this guy who's been nothing short of sensational as an NFL player to date.

What's his status on the Bengals Defensive Depth Chart and overall in the NFL today? He's bad ass 'really good' and leads the NFL this season in Tackles with 118 and *** that's 6 more than the number two tackler Kiko Alonzo of the Bills at 112 tackles. A whopping 22 more tackles than the #3 tackler, Demeco Ryans of the Eagles.

Leading Tacklers in 2013:

I'm just sick of seeing TT select paper doll prospects. I want him to have an eye and mind out for tough/durable prospects on both sides of the ball moving forward.

I'm sick of reading about just how much 'bad luck' is with Green Bay Packer players.

Bad Luck or lacking in grit/toughness/durability.

It's surely nothing to do with defensive players and contact.

It's not a dance out there .... it's FUCKING NFL football. It's about mean and tough.

Bring that back to the Green Bay Packers Ted Thompson.



GO PACK GO !

Yes, but not in the first round. Brad Jones will get better but I would like youth and speed at ILB. Hawk and Jones are good tacklers though.
