Could Ted do something unexpected in the draft?

[CaliforniaCheez]

I learned of this player a couple of years ago and he had a good game against Wisconsin last year.

Could Ted draft this guy and call him a TE?

Small School, good character, broke many of Jerry Rice's records.

Perhaps if Jennings is not going to sign an extension ... this is some insurance.

It seems bizzare but Ted has done some unusual things and does not always draft for need.

Just something to think about. A 6' 6" 230 lbs TE who can run like a WR and would be great in the red zone with the 2nd round pick.

Jermichael Finley already fits that bill... assuming he every grows up.

That said, of course TT is going to draft someone completely unexpected.

This guy is a good WR. He doesn't seem similar to the other players Ted has drafted at WR.

Jennings, Rodgers, Nelson, Jones, Swain, Murphy were all guys who could make things happen after the catch. This guy is a hell of a player. I like him a lot, but he's not like what we have so I just don't know if Ted is going to value him has high as someone else might.

I keep hoping Denver will trade Cutler to the Jets as rumored, and trade with TT to move up and select a QB like Sanchez or Josh Freeman. Denver has the 12th pick, TT would only have to move down 3 spots, and could still draft a quality player, makes sense to me. I won't be suprised at all if TT trades the 9th pick.

The thread title is intriguing.
"Could Ted do something unexpected in the draft?"

I would answer this way, "Could the sun rise in the east and set in the west?"

[MJZiggy]

I wonder if anyone will call it correctly. I sense a contest brewing....

[Bretsky]

Trade up in round one or round two; to me that would be unexpected

Who??

Snake's off to Vegas in a week. $100 going down at MGM for a 3rd round punter...That's never been done before.

Something un-expected would be to have a great draft with at least one freakin impact player.

Un-expected would be drafting for need since we have so many holes. We don't use free agency so how do the holes get plugged?

I'd be the first to admire your stamina and perseverance at ratting all over TT, Packnut, except for the fact that you completely disappeared during the height of the 13-3 season and didn't raise your head much until after the Championship game.

Aaron Rodgers, anyone? Or Nick Collins, perhaps, who led the league in nterception return yardage? Or ow about greg Jenins?

None of them impact players? Packnut, your blinders get bigger every day, it seems.

Give ol' Packnut a break. I'm sure that season was a very traumatic experience for him. I'm sure gonna miss him if the Packers bounce back with a great season this year.

Umm Arron Rodgers isn't an impact player?
