Ty Dunne at JSO said he talked to teams who had him as a FA. Either Hoody genius or out thinking himself again.

i think there is a lot of bullshit that reporters have to swallow from these scouts, nobody takes a guy that demonstrates the skills of a FA in the second round.

Konz to Atlanta

[smuggler]

A nice snipe by Green Bay. Now, if there were just some way we could have also acquired Konz...

[Brandon494]

I see us selecting a secondary player or running back with our 3rd round pick, hopefully we'll continue to go with defense.

He was a better player than Worthy, but he didn't fill an immediate need for the Packers.

Like I said from the beginning posters were fooling themselves if they thought TT would pick an offensive player early just because they were the "BPA". Our defense needed help and so far TT is addressing those issues.

If you meld your post with Nutz you get the byword value. All things being equal, take the projected talent at a spot of team need. But do not reach for the need. And do not overpay to move into a spot where the value is.

Sometimes you just can't get to the spot you need to be in to get the value at a need position. That is when you do BPA (or when rebuilding).

Steelers committing highway robbery so far.

Packers are having one of their best off seasons in quite a while,

shame.

Had to read that twice, but makes perfect sense. Nice job.

Who will bet that TT goes three picks 'D'??

What did TT give up for that trade up fr. #59 to #51 >>> a 4th and his 5th?

Could be. But I think its happened to both the Packers and Pats with picks a little later (4th I think?).

correct, but teams usually have enough talent still left on the board to take a position of need. All teams have more than one need, now the Packers reaching for a safety would have been a total reach, but when you compare Worthy to Konz, Konz is the better overall football player, but the Packers have a greater need on defense.
