    I'm not upset about the Packers not getting Foster and Peppers, and only slightly about T.J. Watt. Peppers is a bust waiting to happen, and Foster is an injury risk as well as possibly overrated, coming from such an overall great defense. I've never been part of the "in Ted we trust" crowd, but I think he is doing all right so far in this draft by what he has not done.

    We need to get a top flight edge rusher and a top quality cover Corner with our two second round picks. Ted had better not stray from this. I picked Jordan Willis in the poll. Both Cunningham and Bowser - the two primary alternatives IMO - are, if you can believe the stats given, both undersized and not very fast. The Corner I have my eye on is Rasul Douglas, who is not in the poll, and may still be available with our late Second Round pick.

    Trading down wouldn't be too bad either, given the probable offers we might get before tonight as well as having some of the people who seem best suited for the Packers to draft being rated a little lower than where we are picking.

    Me either Tex; I really wanted Watt and it's no surprise Pitt jumped at him cause IMO he's a step up from what's left.

    With that being said, I'm fine with the 6th best CB, the top OG, an ILB who is better than the much we have now, a RB, or a second tier edge rusher.

    Ted needs to get a serious offer to trade out of this IMO or we should take the pick

    I don't want a 5th round draft pick or lower to move out of this pick

    He's not good at fleecing other teams on draft day deals but on this one he needs to fleece somebody or take his BPA
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    The more I mull this over the more I think he trades down again and picks from these players


    Obi Melifonwu, Budda Baker, Quincy Wilson, Kevin King, forrest Lamp or Joe Mixon

    How pissed will this board be if he goes guard/rb with the two picks?

    I'm betting TT does some deals (yes, plural) and walks away from the 2nd Rnd with King or Awuzie and Kamara or Mixon. He'll draft an OG and a DL with the extra picks he gets from the deals. Our pass rush guy at this point might end up being Derek Rivers, who is pretty darn good.
    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.

    I like Bowser. If you watch his video tape, you're impressed with his speed, athleticism, strength and wingspan. I just don't know if TT can get Bowser and Kamara and King/Awusie.

    Either way we're gonna get a couple of quality players.

    I agree except for using a 2nd rounder on a HB....want defense with both picks.

    I can't argue against you. Think that's what I prefer too. But Mixon is a talent GB hasn't seen at RB in quite some time. He'd make tight windows for Aaron not as tight. Would help immensely. Still lots of DBs hanging around.

    I think Joe Mixon is the best player left in the draft. He has one incidence. He punched a woman in the face when he was 18. I punched my sister in the face when I was 14, she was bigger than me at the time and 15. But regardless, I kept punching her and damn near killed her. I didn't know my strength. He was 18, felt rejected and hurt, she came at him and he dropped her.

    I don't see a bad person. I see a fragile person who didn't know how to be responsible for that strong body of his just yet. Everyone is going to regret passing on him. Punching a woman in the face at 18 isn't that bad. If he kept having incidents, that would be bad, but he didn't. He's good. He learned.

    There are about 3 or 4 corners still available with a second grade without reaching. I agree with McGinn that there simply not enough depth at the position to sustain any kind of legitimate pass defense in 2017.

    McDowell would look good in Green and Gold.

    One thing for sure, if TT screws this up, given the position he's in right now, he ought to retire ASAP. LOL
