BOB the dobber MCGINN'S MOCK DRAFT

[Smidgeon]

At least Harrell seemed to have the capability of being a starter in the NFL. Hell, if Collins had the same injury a couple years earlier, we'd all be saying he was a bad pick. I'd rather have a GM that picks good players that end up getting injured, than have a GM that picks players that don't get injured but aren't good enough to play anyway.

Excellent point. Agree completely. Repped.

I think Upshaw is really stiff, and will struggle in coverage and getting to the passer. I think he will be at his best against the run. That being said I haven't watched any film on Shea, so I am not debating between the two.

Watch McClellin. I really like his game.

Hold on a second. Two people have said they knew Rodgers was going to be the Packers pick. I distinctly remember that not being a prime topic of conversation before that draft (though, that draft was while many members of pre-PackerRats were wandering in the wilderness-2005). I do remember late in draft silly season there was a rumor or article about Rodgers falling out of the top 10 and then having no real landing place until the 20s or so, if he was not the first pick. Ted later said they were aware of the possibility and had mocked it.

So when did you know Rodgers was going to the Packers? I thought it was possible once he got past Dallas at pick 20. They obviously has other needs, but just as clearly had no backup and no successor to Favre.

Michael Brockers is like a Justin Harrell clone. Had Harrell been healthy the Packers might be back to back superbowl champions right now IMO. Harrell was a fantastic pick at the time. Only pick that Thompson ever truly sucked on was Brohm. Brohm has no excuse, he just isn't good.

I won't say I knew for sure, but when he dropped to the Packers pick I actually said outloud "shit they are going to take Rodgers"

When the Packers went on the clock and he was still available.

I think I said something like,"Sweet Jesus fucking Christ Don't take that motherfucker!"

Well, no one really specified when they knew he was going to be a Pack pick. I was like you...around the time the Vikings picked up James with their second pick it started looking likely. It never occurred to me before that!

[King Friday]

I think we are going to be happy with whoever we get, because the options to bolster our pass rush seem to be anything but limited. Just about any of the 4 or 5 guys people generally say Green Bay should consider would be a nice addition.

Look at the picks before Aaron Rodgers to us at #24. Defining first round draft status as successful ...'as making a Pro Bowl'.

How good was that first round? How strong has this group been for the teams drafting them?

I said to myself. I hope Brett Favre wasn't watching the proceedings too closely. If he was I was thinking that he's going to be pissed.

[Deputy Nutz]

Favre was pissed, he stayed pissed for his last 3 years in Green Bay. He wasn't catered to, and it was a shock to his system after the last 7 years under Sherman and that black guy. What he didn't realize is that he still had the keys to the castle, he had the fans on his side. Thompson and McCarthy could only ignore him so much, he was the beloved son of Green Bay and Wisconsin.
