Not to mention he missed most of the preseason and then was named the starter a few days before the season began. I don't see any reason he won't be a good QB.

    Absolutely right there. I like Wentz long term

    Did he really?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Some people like Vince Biegel's chances as an rush LB as much as Watt. I read where some scouts like Biegel more. There are other names for edge guys and corners.

    If they like King as it is rumored, then that helps the secondary. You draft someone like Biegel who takes a back seat in press clippings to Watt, but may have his own success, and as for RB, there are many more good prospects, including Cook. It would also not surprise me if he picked Joe Mixon with his first pick, assuming he's comfortable doing so.

    Biegel has talent....ok in round three....but the scouts who like him more than Watt should be fired. I do like him though

    I'm not sold on King but I'd certainly be ok with Biegel with that second 2nd round pick.

    Having the first pick in the 2nd round is actually pretty prime position for a trade. Some team will talk themselves into a player and make Green Bay an offer. I wouldn't trade back more than, say, 6-8 spots though.

    There are sometimes players drafted in round 3 who perform better than their round 1 counterparts.

    Ian Rapoport just reported on NFL Network that GB is fielding calls for their 1st pick in the 2nd Round from teams wanting a QB.

    QB's make people stupid. He might be able to clear a mint.

    Ironically the two teams that gave up those top two picks still don't have a QB, SF and Cle. Here's to hoping TT can pull out an additional 1st rounder next year as opposed to a 6th rounder and a box of crackerjacks.

    Could be the Jets who have the 39th pick.

    Having the first pick on days 2 and 3 is a highly sought affer commodity. I just wish we had a gm that had the testicular fortitude to capitalize on that and I'm hoping TT proves me wrong in that we don't have one.

    Asked if he’d consider trading back again, Ted Thompson replied, “Oh yeah. We’re taking calls.”

    PFTCommenter‏ @PFTCommenter 2h2 hours ago
    nice 2 see OJ followed by a white bronco 4 a change

    Packers traded #29 pick for #33 and #108. In Jordy trade, they also got a fourth, for moving six spots.
    According to the Jimmy Johnson chart, its 640 points (29th pick) for 580 (33rd) and 78. Win by 18 points.

    Pace on why he felt a trade up was necessary: "Just in my talks. We have a lot of feelers out there. I didn't want to sit on our hands."

    In 2008 Thompson was set to take Jordy Nelson at No. 30. Ted got #NYJ offer, moved back to No. 36 and #Packers still got their guy. Not bad.

    Jason Wilde‏ @jasonjwilde 7m7 minutes ago
    In 2013 second round, Thompson traded back from No. 55 with a host of RBs to choose from. Eddie Lacy at No. 61 turned out to be a good pick.

    Replying to @jasonjwilde
    except they wanted Le'Veon

    And he was gone, at No. 48 to #Steelers. Remember a lot of people up in arms that Thompson moved back and "missed out" on Montee Ball.
