    Holy shit, he's white, too. Could be our Jared Allen/Justin Smith-type DL guy.

      Monte Ball is a much better runner in 2012 than what he was in 2011. His offensive line wasn't as good, but his ability to break tackles and keep his balance in the open field was almost 100% better. He is receiving threat out of the backfield, decent at blitz pick up, and can run through tacklers. He isn't going to be a burner, but few are. Again he runs a sub 4.5 he will go some where in the second round, if it is above a 4.5 I expect him to go in round 3

      A month or two ago, I heard some scouts had him as the best back in the draft. It only takes one team.

      I'd take him in a heartbeat over what we have now.

        A guy like that Margus Hunt, with that length. You'd think it would take him a full year or two to grow into that body. Long term, he looks like a really high potential type player. I like that the youtube clips show all of his snaps rather than just highlights. You get to see how he plays down in and down out. I like his discipline. He stays home. I like his speed and his rush. He's going to have to get a lot stronger though. He'll have to add weight and pure strength if he's goign to do it against NFL tackles. He's also the body type, he's going to need to be a technician too. With that length, it takes time to really learn how to gain leverage. It's harder for long guys to do that. . . He could be a beast though. JJ Watt might be the best overall DL since Reggie White. There are 6'6" guys who come into the league every year at 300lbs. None of them, ever, put up sack numbers like White did, until Watt. I'd hold my horses waiting for that type of guy. They're a once in a couple decade talent.

        Everyone is looking for the next Watt now. Those long, 3-4 DE types are going to fly off the board. Problem is, almost none of them pan out, and none of them pan out like Watt, well except Watt. Let everyone overdraft those guys. It's the sexy thing to do. They'll all fail.

          I refer back to my previous post about not knowing a ton about the 3-4 D, or even about football in general (I'm trying to learn) but I did watch Hunt's play on youtube against Texas A&M, and I was not impressed. Yes, I know that often he was matched up against Joeckel. His length showed in his special teams play, no doubt. But it didn't look like he had much of a motor. I throw out this name only as a point of comparison, but when I watched the play of Ezekiel Ansah, you could tell Ansah had a much higher motor. Both Hunt and Ansah are about the same size but Ansah uses it better. I realize these guys are at a premium, but would it be wise for the Packers to burn a 1st round pick on Hunt? Right now it seems like a serious reach. Second round, maybe. By the way, let's just stay away from Ball. If we went RB, I'd go Lacy all day.

            Don't forget, when Jennings leaves, he turns into a late 3rd round draft pick.

              I think that is the latest Motion Picture reboot of Cinderella as well.
              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                Except, hopefully for Jennings, he will remain a carriage and earn lots of money from other teams far past midnight.
