ROUND TWO TARGETS

[red]

There is no one wore trading up for IMO. With our needs being TE, LB, and WR its really no point in trading up. One of the top remaining TE/WR will still be available when we pick and no LB left is worth trading up for.

agreed on the wr/te's

and agree again on the Lb's. there's a bit of a lull in the lb's until the third round

[pbmax]

Or Badgers

no, I would take Groy late enough.

[pbmax]

Too early for a Center in Rd 2?

I think they trust Tretter and Lang enough to wait until the 4th.

[mraynrand]

Packers will not draft a center. Ever.

Want nothing to do with Tuitt, Borland, Jernigan, or Hageman...

Like Van Noy, Moncrief, and some of the other WR's.

Like a few of the OT's too.

Tuiit plays better around 300 pounds and won't make it pass the Giants IMO.

Not sure about that. Two years ago he played at about 320, and played very well. Last year they said he came in at about 330 because he thought bigger would be better. When it didn't work out well, they said he started cutting weight and is now less than he was two years ago, but most everyone says that 325 or so under the direction of NFL trainers should be no problem. The kid is huge and very, very strong.

Just curious, why not Tuitt? I'll admit to may being being biased, having seen most of his games.

While I my have a WR bias due to my perception that a star might be there for us, I'd undoubtedly take Tuitt with that second round pick

After his injury, he came back overweight and out of shape... played like a slug.

If he repeated his soph season last year... he'd be off the board by now, but he looked fat and slow last year.

Besides that - where are you going to play him?? We already stand a bushel full of high draft picks on the sideline every defensive snap... dunderdummy is going to keep playing that idiotic 2-4, and you know Hawk and Brad Jones will both be on the field... who ya gonna sit??

If you're gonna put Peppers in at DT, you can only play 1 guy out of Daniels, Jones, Worthy, Raji, Neal, Mulumba, and Perry.

Assume Neal starts at OLB... gonna draft Tuitt and sit him on the bench too??

No, not out of shape; and no he didn't play like a slug; but yes he was too heavy and it affected his quickness. Just like a few years ago when Finley decided on his own to come in lighter, Tuitt thought it would be good to be heavier. He made a conscious decision and it was wrong. But he began losing weight right away, and the last half of the year was playing very well again.

He lifted more than any DE at the combine, and is lighter than he was two years ago.

I think it was a case of a 20 year old kid making a simple mistake, but he obviously learned from it as evidenced by what he did the next 6 months.

To PATLER.........TUITT or NIX ???

Tuitt.

I think Tuitt. I like Nix too, but for some reason when I watch him I see Raji. They are different players, I know, but I see a stump that I think will have a shorter career.

I was wondering late if TT might be going to trade down and pick him....as this draft approached.

I'm glad he's another teams project/prospect.

Pick 19, Round 3 (83) Texans <<< DT/NT Louis Nix III.
