I posted strictly those First Round Picks that are Busts or have some questions attached to them.
How many clear cut 'Voted In' Pro Bowls did AJ Hawk garner? He was a very high Pick and he didn't live up to what TT might have hoped for and his College Production.
Jordy is a tremendous WR. I confined my Post to 1st Round 'PICKS'.

A nice analysis in Post #23 of this thread.
TT and the Packer Drafts of late:

Ted Thompson: His last five Green Bay Packers drafts are defensive misery
By Raymond Rivard8 months agoFollow @lombardiave
" The Packers GM, who was himself a linebacker in the NFL during his playing days, however, doesn’t seem to be able to draft any player worth their salt on that side of the line.
To make a point, we’ve gone back five years – the amount of time most coaches and GMs are given to produce a Super Bowl champion – and taken a look at the defensive players drafted by Thompson.
What we found wasn’t pretty."

Comment woodbuck27: I simply have higher expectations based in what I expect from myself.
I don't still ever do anything and not aim to do it very well. All my life I have proven personally that outstanding effort gave me outstanding results. All my life I rose to the highest levels.I strived to be the WINNER...and too often I was or came close to the GOLD.
That hasn't changed since I joined Packerrats. If you imagine otherwise then I'll suggest you and prejudice. I trust my determination, attitude, brains, skills and wisdom. I don't give a damn and what anyone here imagines different and me. I know who I am.
As for TT. All I see now is Burn Out.
That isn't anything and a prejudice against TT. I actually like Ted Thompson as a person that is rather gentle in his style of being himself. I look at anything and try with great effort to see it as it really is. I'm a Canadian and we hate prejudice and discount anyone who instructs their life on such a lousy basis. Check out the POLLS and our Canadian view of a certain ahhhhh hahaha... I'll go with personality and the USA.
I will remain in my analysis and Green Bay Packers with this:
I hope strongly that Ted Thompson let's go of his GM position this Season. I certainly do NOT want him having any post Packer GM capacity as a Draft Advisor.

No Woody, what you did is said "TT doesn't do very well with his first round picks." Then you listed his questionable picks.
Somehow you missed the best 1st round pick in 20+ years. That pick alone has made the Favre transition easy and seemless instead of years of crap like most franchises have at QB.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

Worthy was never worthy. He never flashed anything in camp except an ability to charge offside. If Rodgers ever played against him, every play would've been a free play.

What I heard about Worthy coming out was that he was good at anticipating snap counts and his whole game was predicated on a fast get-off...but that was in college. In the pros, you need more than that and he didn't have it. Adams is a R4, they'll give him a chance to play eventually. If he doesn't pan out he won't be the first guy. Worthy flopping as a R2 was costly. My guess is Adams is healthy but learning the game and the scheme. I don't know that I'd put him on the active 46 or play him over Dial or Francois, but I think he's going to get his chance soon.
AJ Hawk, while not living up to the #5 pick, is the all time leading tackler in Packer history.

Should trade all picks to get into the 2nd round, 4th round and 6th and 7th.
Just avoid 1, 3 and 5 altogether.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Raji had an unfortunately short career but he was a huge factor in that 2010 defense and SuperBowl run. His play down the stretch that year makes it pretty tough to argue that was a bad pick.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro ~Hunter S.
sooo, 25 or so tackles a year and less then 2 sack per year for a 1st round pick
also, we gave up a ton of yards on the ground when he was in there being the run stuffer
we were talking about him being a bust before he quit on the team, then came back only to be injured right away (to grab his paycheck imo), then give up on the team again
at the end of the day, at best, you could say he was average. never came close to being worth the #9 pick or whatever he was
