    The Packers are on the clock again and by the way TT can sure use up most of the time available to him. I doubt that any team takes longer on average to make a pick.:

    TT picks:

    In Round Five and Pick 39 (182 Overall) Packers (Compensatory Selection) ... RB Aaron Jones ... 5'9" and 208 lbs ... Texas-El Paso .... GRADE AT 5.0

    Maybe but some but if you looked back I was high on HaHa the whole time and loved the pick.

    RB ...AARON JONES ...TEXAS-EL PASO ... CONFERENCE USA ... Grade at 5.08

    OVERVIEW

    Aaron and his twin brother, Alvin, were El Paso kids that weren't highly rated, so staying around home made sense. It's worked out well for UTEP, as Alvin has led the team in tackles the past two years while Aaron amassed over 4,000 rushing yards during his career. Aaron led the Miners with 811 yards as a freshman, scoring four times, even though he missed three games due to a broken rib. Healthy throughout 2014, he earned second-team All-Conference USA honors with 1,321 yards (5.5 per) and 11 scores (also 30-293, three TDs receiving). The good luck didn't stay in his junior year, however, as he suffered a torn ligament in his left ankle in practice. Jones exploded in 2016 after that redshirt year, ranking fourth in the FBS with 1,773 rushing yards and scoring 17 times (28-233, three TDs receiving). He was a first-team All-Conference USA pick in his final year.

    An uninspiring day for me as a Packer fan. TT didn't as I see it have a good round four.

    I can't see much hope for the WR he chose in Round Five.

    Can't say I'm too excited about day 3. Best thing we've done is trade back in round 5. We have three picks left, maybe we'll luck out with one of those. The two RBs do not seem like NFL players to me.

    WEAKNESSES: Short stepper missing quick feet to shake press coverage off the snap. Upright and slow into his routes. Stiff into his breaks with prolonged gear down. Lacks burst out of breaks and double moves aren't quick enough to create the easy throwing window. Quality man coverage can smother him. Failed to catch at least 50 percent of targeted throws in any season at Purdue. Vertical sell to setup short and intermediate is unconvincing. Drops have been an issue throughout his career.

    BOTTOM LINE Four year letterman who has relied on quantity for his production totals. Yancey is a stiff-hipped vertical receiver only with good size but below average hands. A team could sniff around on him on Day 3, but he will struggle to uncover against NFL man coverage.


    He is likely at best a STer **

    ** DRAFT ANALYSIS:


    " Yancey's productive senior season earned him NFL looks and Green Bay likely saw enough potential as a downfield receiver to take him at this point. He'll need to earn his keep on special teams early."

    Have you seen Purdue play offense in the last 6 years?

    They seriously have had no idea what to do. They are on their fourth offensive system since Joe Tiller retired.

    They keep doing the Browns thing, changing horses midstream. One spread, zone read comes in, takes three years to recruit his guys, they are playing terribly, he is fired. Then next coach with different system comes in and can't run their system with the old players. Needs to recruit all new. Then is fired and new guy with system comes in and

    Lather, rinse, repeat.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    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 tend to give TT the benefit of the doubt at WR, but yeah not the guy I would have taken.

    I actually like this years draft so far for the Packers I am not crazy about Yancy but the rest of them will help fill holes or even start or be decent back ups. I know a few need more extra training and will probably go to practice squad this year I even checked most of the sports analyzers and they agreed that most of the packers picks were good and rated B or above at least for the first 4 rounds so lets just sit back and see whats happen and give the guy that actually sees all the tapes and gets all the scouting reports and put a little trust in them, I hope every one is having a great weekend

    Yep. BTW, you should get credit for finding that site. Really makes comparing them much more simple and its far more accurate than a list of numbers from their workout.
