OFFICIAL 2015 NFL DRAFT THREAD

[Maxie the Taxi]

I don't think TT will draft McKinney. The guy is big and slow. We need someone quick and fast in that spot. I still think TT will go WR. ...So much will change between now and April.

That TT has to retain some of his own is his highest priority right now.

In reference to your post that means signing Randall Cobb. I hope he loves it in Green Bay.

I think we just found ourselves an ILB in the draft: Steve Miller, Ohio State, 6'3", 255 lbs. Just intercepted Alabama pass and ran it back for a TD.

I heard he can fly like an eagle, that Steve Miller.

If the Packers want a player in the vein of Woodson or (perhaps) Cam Chancellor, they may consider Shaq Tompson (LB/S/RB) from Washington. He's so, so quick. And versatile. But, he's not the kind of guy you plug into a spot and just go. You'd need to scheme to him a bit. Considering how we used Chuck, and how we have gone more multi in this year, I think we might consider it. The other thing is, like a lot of players, it's quite possible he doesn't last to the end of the first round.

The best immediate result, I would think, would be improved coverage on tight ends...

Just as a heads up on a player that TT wouldn't touch:

Yep. He's not getting a sniff from Theodore.

It's early, but the current rankings would indicate Thompson won't be available when the Packers pick. He's just too dynamic a playmaker to last that long. Some teams might pass on him because they're not sure where to play him, but not enough for the Packers to have a shot.

[smuggler]

I have seen him mocked anywhere from 8 overall to early 2nd round. Based on the math, he probably won't last to 32 overall.

x Injured

While you silly bastards quibble about the Seachickies, I'm thinking toward the FUTURE!! This draft, I take two prospects with injuries that cause them to fall. They'd both likely be redshirted in 2015, but could potentially be great values if they return to form.

[woodbuck27]

This guy will be available in mid Feb. '15. Chris Carter's son who played 2013-14 in the CFL with the Montreal Alouettes.

" -- The Packers will take Florida State defensive tackle Eddie Goldman with the No. 30 pick.

That's Kiper's subtle way of predicting Green Bay will lose to Seattle in Sunday's NFC championship game. "

Do we draft 30th??
