2008 OFFICIAL DRAFT THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Merlin]

Um QB with the 2nd pick? Are you serious?

Thompson never does what is best, he does what he thinks is the BPA on his board. Was Brohm the best on his board for the 56th pick??????????? I doubt it! Lee had to be higher then Brohm. Could it be that he is thinking about something we dunno about? Who knows. I would have thought after taking Nelson we were looking at a CB for the next pick. Brohm looks to be a sleeper with more skills then Rodgers. Why in the hell would he send that message?????

[BallHawk]

i'm still not convinced those guys would be starters on any other nfl team right now

You don't get to 13-3 by having guys that are the worst in the league at their position.

Yeah, we have weaknesses. Who doesn't? But we don't have any positions that will seriously damage our chances of winning football games.

Oh, Jesus, Merlin's back just in time to tell us he knows more about what Ted knows than Ted himself knows. Is it still a conspiracy to drive Favre out of town, this drafting of a QB?

[PackerPro42]

I'm just going to throw a name out that I think that TT will go after tomorrow. Tavares Gooden the LB from Miami. I may be wrong but I've been looking at this guy for a while and he was one of the players the TT brought in for interviews. He would be a nice addition to the LB core and is a potential starter later on in the season.

You can read can't you? Is there a reason you are being an asshole to me? Could it be because you are as confused about the pick as everyone else? no that would be too obvious. Sometimes your blind hatred is uncontrollable. Once an asshole always one I guess. Go find someone elses chain to pull dumbass.

[Deputy Nutz]

the thing about the draft that I figured out is, far be it for me to sit here and critique what these paid professionals are doing. They watch more film, and put in more time than I would ever do on my own to scout these players. They must have some understanding with what they are doing. If Thompson honestly thinks that Jordy Nelson is the best player and best overall fit for the Packers then who am I to judge at this juncture? I take it as it comes.

I can stat that I don't really like the Brohm pick because of all the media controversy that is now going to surround the QB position in 2008. We haven't really had that in Green Bay since Favre's early years.

IF you had bothered to read or hear what TT said, he considered Brohm at #30 and actually tried to trade up in the saecond to get him. Once again your hatred of TT blinds you from reality and causes you to rant insanely.

I would not call Colledge (who was benched a couple times) or Coston (who is often hurt and inconsistent) as established starters

I don't agree with your last premise

[woodbuck27]

Woody, do you really sense that Favre is committed to doing the necessary work to continue to play?

His indecision doesn't mean to me that he CAN'T play anymore, but it does demonstrate to me that he isn't as committed to playing as he used to be.

Does this officially end the Favre era in Green Bay? No way you bring him back now right? Wow..Wonder how Aaron feels right now..QB controversy anybody?

I'd love Favre to come back just to pisss fella's like you off.

I missed Woody post on this. I wouldn't be pissed if Brett came back, but I don't see it happening now with two young solid QB's unless we trade one of them. If Brett decides to return, Arod is as good as gone imo..If Brett can commit to a couple years then we can groom Brohm at that point.

I predicted long before he retired that he would pbMax.

and No! He said he couldn't maske the committment he did last season ever again. He was in my view all shot burnt out pbmax. He gave all he had and his tank was near to empty.

imscott72. PLEASE don't take me too seriously. I only want one thing. A nother Packer Super Bowl win, and us fans feeling all that took. I'm 100% behind TT doing it really good.

I'm also criticle and It costs me, but someone has to stand in and shoot @ him when he/she feel it's that way. I truly hope his first pick today turns out very productive for us all to enjoy. I would have gone in a different direction.I believe by far that most Packer fans we'er disappointed in that selection early in round two. We'll live with it. Pull hard for this WR and TT.

I'm for TT doing GREAT.

PACKERS FOREVER!

Gosh, are you running for a political office ?

This will be TT's season to mainly take stock.To really assess the Packer's future.

We are NOT a player or three away from the Super Bowl. That has to be his aim, and nothing less is good enough. This season he finds where he's at and maybe, and it's a long shot; but by the end of his current contract we may be close or just where we will be in 2008? Not close.

If that's the case he will be replaced.

It's vital for him to carefully select his needs. I just hate the PBA philosophy " off his board ", as it says nothing to the fans. Fans that have their keen interests in Packer good fortunes and are darn smart.

I wish TT would just change some. If he doesn't he's toast. That's not even a prediction. It will be just that. There you go Scott Campbel carry that around your you back. woodbuck27

Packers Forever!

I don't think he's saying we have guys who are irreplacable at every position. I think what he's saying is that the Packers are one of hte best teams in the league and don't have to sacrafice quality to desperately fill needs through the draft. I agree with ballhawk. I'm not wowed by about 10 or so starters on our team, but I'm not desperate to replace them either. I'm definitly not convinced our young guys are done growing. Some percieved holes now might not even be holes even without draft picks.

[Bretsky]

There seems to be a few solid TE's left in Cottham, Finley, and Davis

[RashanGary]

Rucker too.
