I think, actually, the best possible scenario is that Stafford is sitting there at #9, and San Francisco gives up a 2nd or a 3rd to move up one single spot so somebody doesn't grab Stafford (or Sanchez, if Stafford is gone) before they can.
I can't see any Packer fan complaining about moving down one spot, netting extra picks, when the player who is traded up for is a QB.</delurk>

From what I've read...and its only 2nd/3rd hand....smith is the most talented, of the thomas/long mold. He acted the fool and blew his top 2 picks position. The other 3 were a bit less...of the D'Brickshaw Furgeson mold. No one will call them hall of famers yet, but a solid long productive career seems likely.Originally posted by KYPackIt seems there are 3 or 4 LT's that are considered special guys, like Joe Thomas was a few years back. St lou & Cincy will probably grab one of 'em. I think we will take the other guy, maybe Smith from Alabama, who did a lot of stupid stuff prior to the draft. Most rookies are dumb 22 year olds, he's just another one. Draft him and grow him up.

Wrong. We swap #8 for #9 for their seventh rounder this year and the next 5 yearsOriginally posted by Lurker64I think, actually, the best possible scenario is that Stafford is sitting there at #9, and San Francisco gives up a 2nd or a 3rd to move up one single spot so somebody doesn't grab Stafford (or Sanchez, if Stafford is gone) before they can.

The worst thing that could happen is if for whatever reason TT has Stafford ranked high, and took him as BPA. =(.
Very doubtful to happen, BUT tt does love BPA and based on HIS boards not scouts.Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly. -Morticia Addams

Well, it's frequently BPA based on his scouts's board. But team scouts frequently disagree with NFL draftniks and other "experts".Originally posted by MazzinVery doubtful to happen, BUT tt does love BPA and based on HIS boards not scouts.</delurk>

Good. It got us Nick Collins, Greg Jennings, Daryn Colledge, Jordy Nelson. I like all of those guys now. Terrence Murphy would have been a good one also. Brandon Jackson looks like he'll turn out also. Too early to judge Brohm and Pat Lee. Thompson has done wonderful work in the second round.Originally posted by MazzinTrue but you see what i was gettin at....in the second he will prolly take some kid from a small school, little exposure and GREAT numbers."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

Good post-will be interesting to see how this plays out (roll not roleOriginally posted by packers11MY BREAKDOWN :::
I doubt Detroit would trade with the Packers and or vise versa...
The thing is... Stafford could fall very fast...
#1 Detroit - Could go here
#2 Rams - Could take stafford but will role with a OT since Pace left.
#3 Chiefs - Just got Cassel No way...
#4 Seahawks - Hasselback ... No way...
#5 Browns - Quinn and Anderson ... No way...
#6 Bengals - To much money in Palmer ... No way
#7 Oakland - J Russell ... No way
#8 Jaguars - Just gave David Garrad a big deal... No way...
Now... #9... Where were stand...
at #10 SF could take Stafford and probably would if he did fall, but maybe someone would want to jump in front of them?
Count the Lions,Vikings,Bears out of trade partners....
You have left...
#13 - Skins (Cambell hasn't shown enough)
#15 - Texans (unlikely, Schaubb bought himself another year)
#17 - Jets (VERY POSSIBLE)
#19 - Tampa (Also need a young QB, VERY POSSIBLE)
Now the best scenario that could happen would be...
GB sends #9 pick to Tampa Bay...
Tampa sends #19 pick and #50 to GB, but since they don't have a 2nd round pick I don't see anything happening with them...
The second best thing would be...
GB sends #9 to Jets
Jets send #17 and #53 to GB...
This would favor GB a little, but it would assure the Jets a chance at a franchise QB since Joe Namath...
