    I don't dislike the pick
    I disliked the job our GM did

    Seattle trades down 5 picks and gets a 3rd round pick. GB makes that deal and good chance they get the same player, or one very similar.
    KC trades down 7 picks and picks up an extra 4th and 6th. He might have been there too.

    Those picks could have been very valuable in moving back into round two if need be

    In the end, it will be interested to see if Kenny Clark has a better career than both NFL ready DL'man from Alabama, expecially Robinsin. And is his career better than a 3rd round draft pick and one of those players better ?
    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 ?

    Do the DLs from Alabama fit the NT position/the Packers scheme?

    Reed is a great run plugger with little pass rush ability. Robinson has questions about his motor.

    Going deeper, it's a good group, but there were minor questions about all these guys. Nkemdiche has questions about his motor also. I think Billings is more of a 4-3 DT than 3-4 DE or NT. Rankins and Bullard are better fits in a 4-3. Austin Johnson had the worst measurables of the group.

    That's probably why Clark was more appealing. TT and MM seem to be emphasizing the pass rush more and more as the years go by, so I think it probably came down to Clark vs. Butler. I had Butler slightly higher overall, very slightly. I had Clark higher in the effort and toughness category. The overall measurables were about the same. I had Butler as a bit better as a run defender. Clark with a bit more potential as a pass rusher.

    Denver probably doesn't make that trade with the Packers. If they did, some other team that wanted Lynch could make a deal with Seattle to beat Denver to Lynch. I would have been okay with a different trade down, but obviously TT liked Clark. We'll see.

    John Elway was frighten to death that TT might take Paxton Lynch.

    Actually, it's probably because the Cowboys were angling to move up too. And if the Broncos suspected the Packers would deal with the Cowboys, they need to leapfrog the Cowboys.

    Of course your likely bang on. I was having some fun there.

    Your reaction is bang on B. I'll draw an analogy:

    TT committed the mistake we all do playing Texas Holdem'.

    He fell in love with his hand as it unfolded and forgot to properly assess the community cards.
