He'd probably contribute more to the team than Justin Harrell, but he's about to get benched in Jacksonville:

I was thinking the same thing as I watched the game last night. But...But...But... we could've got 20 players better than Harrell! Hindsight is wonderful.

Looking back at that draft, there just weren't that many good players taken after the top half of the first round. Unfortunately, our pick landed right after the good player spigot shut off. (Another loss the previous year and we could have had Revis).

We going to make a post every time a player has a bad game? I mean he is only playing against the undefeated Colts.

And to answer your question yes I still would rather have him because then we would actually have a backup safety.

If it means having an alternative to Bigby, then yes, I still want Nelson.

Yes, take him over Bigby and whoever our other safety is

yes, i would still rather have him

in order to be benched, not only did he have to suit up, but he's been a starter

we can't even get JH to suit up

forfeiting the pick would have been a better option then picking JH

Nelson is still a solid talent...and there is no way to project how Nelson would be playing currently in Green Bay surrounded by great veteran leadership in the secondary with Woodson and Harris. He seems to be doing things his own way in JAX right now...I'm doubting that is entirely his fault. I'm sure there are other factors to consider that may not have come into play if he were in Green Bay.

And compared to Harrell, Nelson is a freaking All-Pro.

As long as were re-writing history I'd like to trade up 2 spots and take Revis.

LMAO. Red you are such a cynic sometimes. You had to have been Andy Rooney in a previous life. What a riot! :D

Nah, I love having Justine. It was the first time the rose colored goggles fell off a few people and they saw the flaws in the King. The King became human that day.

It was a good day for Packer fans. Expensive, but still good.

Why would you think that something bad for the Packers would be good. I'd rather have "the King" be right, thanks.

Exactly what flaws did the Harrell pick expose RG?

Well, if I was gifted with perfect hindsight, I would like to trade the #16 pick in 2007 for Cleveland's second round pick in 2007(36), and 1st round pick in 2008 (turned out to be 22). With the 36 I would take Tony Ugoh (went 42) and with the 22 I would take Chris Johnson (went 24).

Someone build me a time machine so I can make this happen.
