Woodbuck probably doesn't think he was wrong about Faver either.

I think that's because you couldn't see what he was building. Many of us fully supported him on his journey, and didn't try to tear him down at every turn.

GO PACKERS!
You certainly have that right. Just like I have the right to bump them later when you've been proven the fool like we all suspected when you originally posted. All along I and others tried to tell you this would happen. But you just wouldn't listen. I guess some of us were born to watch football. And some of us were born to understand football.
By the way - how's that Randy Moss trade working out for you?

Hey Woody! It wouldn't be Packerrats if you didn't catch sh!t.
I agree, though, that it might be more a case of you catching up to TT than TT catching up to you.

1) In my opinion Jolly is not having trouble giving up an addiction to mind-altering substances, he is having trouble giving up the idiots that are supposedly his friends. Leaving the culture that raised you and supported you is harder than those of us from the middle class can understand. We be crackers after all.
2) I think the chances of TT trading down are small, given the fact that our depth is much improved. In a typical year, TT might even trade up if he could, but this year's draft doesn't seem to reward such a move. I think he'll pick the best player he can at spot #32. My money is still on DL or OL.Last edited by swede; 03-25-2011, 05:34 PM.[QUOTE=George Cumby] ...every draft (Ted) would pick a solid, dependable, smart, athletically limited linebacker...the guy who isn't doing drugs, going to strip bars, knocking around his girlfriend or making any plays of game changing significance.

Prove it.Originally posted by JustinHarrell View PostWoodbuck, I don't think TT learned the things you knew he needed to learn to become good. I think you learned that he was doing the things that worked.
Humility, sir. Humility.
When you're wrong (the way you were on TT) just admit it and move forward. We've all been there, even Patler.

I don't see us trading down either. Now we need immidiate impact players. Last year we proved we're by and far deep enough to endure just about any loss. What we need to do is start replacing our below average and average starters with above average guys.- Once again, adding absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Bye Jolly hope you like dudes for the next 20 years dumb ass.
TT will trade his first round for a future 1st and a pick in this draft...thats my guess.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

When I make my toast in the morning I'll be thinking of Johnny Jolly.
Looks like Justin Harrell is going to have to storm through that door of opportunity - and try not to wrench his back, snap an achilles, or anything else while he's storming."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

I'm not sure why he would do this, since it's not as though we don't have a roster that's ready to win championships right now, and it's not as though we can't find a player at #32 that will improve the roster. That and the fact that the NFL has come out and said "you trade 2012 picks at your own risk" will probably dissuade teams from trading for them (since by 2012 the draft may be illegal).Originally posted by Tony Oday View PostTT will trade his first round for a future 1st and a pick in this draft...thats my guess.</delurk>

very sad; many of us were cheering for his healthy return. TT IMO will draft the BPA in round one. Odds are he'll nab a DL with one of the top three picks but he'll get us players who can help. Would be nice to somehow lure Jenkins back now but that's prolly a pipe dreamTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

Losing Jolly isn't even a bump in the road for this team. Between TT finding gems (Shields, Wiliams) in rookie FA, castoffs to play role bits here and there (Walden, Green, Peprah) and the coaching staff's ability to coach 'em up, I have total confidence they can get it done. Assuming of course there's a league to play in..."Never, never ever support a punk like mraynrand. Rather be as I am and feel real sympathy for his sickness." - Woodbuck
