Packers in good spot

[rbaloha1]

Potential offensive players taken before pick #9

Andre Smith
Michael Crabtree
Sam Bradford
Matthew Stafford
MarK Sanchez
Knowshon Moreno

This leaves a top defensive player available. IMO Mauluaga and Orakpo are too risky at #9. Curry is probably gone. Unsure about the Oklahoma dt.

Taylor Mays is justified at #9. Trading down could land Spikes or a highly rated left tackle.

If Curry, Mays, and Rey are gone, I think they'd have to look at trading down or drafting Oher or the other OTs. I'm not high enough yet on any of the DL or other LBs to take at #9. Of course, Thompson would be criticized for trading down again. Of course, it's early and I don't really know what I'm talking about.

ABSOLUTELY AGREE

Hold out for a 2nd from somebody looking to move up 5-8 picks. Not sure I'd take a third

[Bretsky]

Draft a star at #9 or trade down

I too think that USC LB could be a beast

Sanchez will be a late 1st early 2nd round pick. Not top 10

Has he declared, or is he leaning towards declaring? Latest I heard is that he was probably going to stay. I think that would be wise, it's not as though he doesn't have a lot to work on in his game and a stellar senior career would make him a pile of filthy lucre, but I haven't heard much recently.

Bradford redshirt one year? I guess I thought he was a true Soph.

Good, we can trade down and get him!
