THE draft thread (2013 version)

[Bretsky]

you're just a plagerizer

at least i told everyone it wasn't my idea

why would I read that site; I am smarter than them
This was an obvious crack by somebody preferred Monte Ball after seeing him excel two straight years

[pbmax]

Lacy should be decent, but the OL he was about to run behind at Alabama may be better than the one in GB

C'mon. Not even the Badgers line that Bostad assembled in 2010, all of who are now drafted, is a good NFL line.

get barrett jones, make lacy feel comfortable

and we need more guys named jones on the roster

i think we only have 3 right now

[Bretsky]

Good pick by the Chargers

Even from a homer's perspective...this years Alabama OL makes that Badger line look like chump change

[Bretsky]

OK.....GIVE ME.......................

Harris averaged 4.6 ypc.

He also looked better than Green or Starks. It ain't all the oline.

[Carolina_Packer]

do not understand all this negativity towards lacy. just wait until he is racking up 100 yard games

That would be nice, but I would honestly just be happy if he gave us the kind of running game that made Aaron Rodgers even scarier to deal with. He could also be a defenses best friend. In the last few years, how many times did they need a tough 1 or 2 yards and they did some dumb play because they didn't have the run game? If he can figure out blitz pickup, and protect the franchise, that will be welcome too.

Wist, I respect you. Why?

First off it's a throw away position for us - TT has always outfitted the position with low cost players b/c the position was little more than incidental to what they predominantly do on offense - which is of course, throw the ball.

As long as the back can pick up the blitz, get what meager yards can be scratched out behind the perpetually poor run blocking OL in front of him - and that's good enough.

No matter what, the Packers are not going to become a team that pounds the ball. Green Bay really is RB Siberia - it isn't so much Lacy himself, although I'm not a fan, it's the position itself - for the Green Bay Packers, it's simply not worth investing much. McCarthy will never change his playcalling, and running the ball will never be a staple of what this team does offensively??

So why invest a high pick in a position that will always be incidental to what you do offensively, while at the same time other areas of your team that do matter are in disarray??

It's a terrible pick.

Still not as good as a mediocre NFL line.

[Bretsky]

WIST..........give me three picks you'd LOVE To see TT make with his round three pick

[pbmax]

The Packers were 16th in rushing attempts in the NFL last year.

We should add two safeties and two WR's.............any rats wanna add ?

Philip Thomas one of the safeties, perhaps ? WR run going on now
