Willie Wood was the surest tackler I've ever seen and he was a 5'10" 190 lb. ankle-biter.

One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Just in general though, I think Teddy picks some of these guys a little raw, because it's the only way you can get a player outside the top 20. Every year I see those top 20 guys go by and am amazed at the combination of physical traits they have. I don't think this Randall guy woulda lasted much longer and maybe he has enough upside to make him a very good player in a few years. The Byron Jones guy on the other hand may just not get all that much better.

That was at a time when NFL Offensive Linemen weight 230 lbs... and to mention Randall in the same sentence as Willie Wood is enough to get your thrown out of any Green and Gold tavern in Wisconsin!!Originally Posted by Maxie the Taxi

Actually, you put Randall and Wood in the same sentence. I didn't.

Point taken. By the way, I've seen Willie Wood take down Jim Brown by a shoestring many times. Brown was 6'2" 232 lbs.In the context of an admonition, it is allowable... please read the PackerFan bylaws.
