  • Vote for packerrats 2010 mock draft second round selection

    The second round is getting tougher to predict who TT will like, since we selected an OT in the first round, I'm going to include other "need" picks, hopefully of the top remaining players. I will include "other" if you don't want any of them.

    I voted for Sapp. Pass rush, I believe, is more important than any DB help. But I could be convinced there is a better choice than Sapp. But if the Pack go OT in Round 1, I will be rooting for OLB in the second.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      I think we should trade down. :P

        To me, this is an easy one. Sapp is definitely the best player available as well as playing a position of need.

          I really like Morgan Burnett in this spot. Think he'd shine in our scheme.

          Koa is intriguing as well (lots of guys really) but I'm hoping he's available later. Reminds me of a crazier Brad Jones from a value standpoint... not sure a 2nd fits but maybe his stock has been rising. Really haven't heard much about him outside of the Senior Bowl.

            This is tricky, actually. For me, it comes down to Sapp vs. Burnett. While Sapp definitely fills a position of need better, and has the chops to be an impact OLB (whereas Misi's ceiling is more of a "tough, hardworking, dependable guy with some natural ability"), but on the other hand Burnett is an absolute steal at this point in the draft. I have Burnett as my #2 safety (after Berry).

            So, hmm...

              I voted Burnett. The reason, based on the things I've read, I think he's the best player and a very underrated player in this draft.

                I don't think anyone will be upset if we end up with a LT and SS in the first two picks. That fills two needs with apparent best players available.

                  I voted for Ben Tate, he played in a tough conference, he doesn't like being tackled or going out of bounds, and he catches the ball well, I think he could be better than Ronnie Brown. Him and Grant taking turns would be killer.

                    Haven't voted yet as I'm on the fence. Seems like the group likes Burnett over Jones for a safety. Just curious as to the reason? Jones did not test great at the combine but I think the kid is an natural athlete.

                    Also why does nobody like Daryl Washington here? Is he a complete non-fit. Seems like he might be a bit slight but the guy looks like a corner when he moves in and out of his backpedal. Extremely smooth. Would he be terrible at the point? I would think he could be a decent pass rusher with great coverage ability.

                    Just looking for more opinios.

                      Jones not only didn't test great at the combine, but it was probably a disaster for him. His 40 time was about 20th among safeties, and his 9 reps in the 225 were dead last among those who lifted. . That's not to say he doesn't have some potential, but he'll probably be available in the 3rd round.

                        I didn't realize it was that bad. It doesn't seem to show on film. It looks to me like the guy could benifit from a discipline weight training program. I read that he played baseball too. Is it possible that the kid didn't develop the strength some of these other guy got because he couldn't participate in the offseson strength programs due to Baseball? Seems like he might room to grow there. His shuttle and cone times look really good, I think he's a natural athlete with room to grow.

                          I would like to resume the draft so if you haven't voted yet, please do, I will announce the pick in the morning. Anyone wanting to participate in round 3 let me know in the 2010 Mock Draft thread.
                          Thanks Ted!

                            From what I've read on Jones if he commits to football he has the potential to be a game changer. He could be available later.

                              If Jones might be there in the 3rd then I'm voting for Sapp. I'd love it if we could bolster the pass rush here and still get Jones in the 3rd.
