You, a staunch Thompson supporter, just can't handle the truth.Originally posted by Fritz View PostThis idea that any NFL GM would set out to deliberately draft soft players is about the dumbest attempt at "analysis" that I can imagine.
Take a look at the history of the Polar Bear's 1st round picks, and softness is the name of the game.
2005: Great Arm of Butte - Fragile as a backup, but nobody cared b/c the Gunslinger was still around. Missed games with shoulder injury as starter. Give the GAB (Great Arm of Butte) credit for playing through the calf malady.
2006: The Epitome of Mediocrity - Toughest of the bunch, but game did not inspire anyone.
2007: The Great Justin Harrell - The mother of Injury-Prone. The rare times we saw him on the field, game was as ugly as his looks.
2009: Claymaker - If his hair ain't pretty, he ain't gonna play. Takes himself out of games. A hamstring pull waiting to happen.
2010: "Brianna" Bulaga - Dunno if Bulaga is lazy or not, or he's just fragile, but he sure as fuck is fond of sitting on the IR while getting paid.
2011: "Debbie" Sherrod - See Brianna comment, except Sherrod sucked when he played.
2012: "Nikki" Perry - Thompson took this milksop over hip-hop saftey Harrison Smith. Perry has NEVER played every game in a season.
2013: "Donna" Jones - Like Perry, Jone's a milksop.
2014: "Hillary" Clinton-Dix - Thank Hades and his 4 inches cock, Dix has not shown any sign of softness. But he plays like Jane.
2015: "DaMary" Randall - Injured groin while engaging in amorous polar bear activities on the Castro before the Pack-49ers preseason game in SF - the one in which Kap bravely "stood up" for the downtrodden.

Doesn't matter. The statement was still grossly incorrect.Originally posted by Anti-Polar Bear View PostDidn't have time to elaborate. I know Claymaker and Burnnett played 16+ games before in a season. My point was, if you take a look at Thompson's first round picks, most of them are injury-prone milksops.
See post before this.

Still should've drafted Smith over Nikki. Smith is a borderline all-pro saftey today. Nikki's a so-so DE impersonating an OLB. Pretty much did nothing but collect paychecks til, maybe, this season - stunk up the joint so bad at one point, the Polar Bear had to go outside his comfort zone and sign a 30-something graybeard named Julius Peppers.Originally posted by Patler View PostHarrison Smith missed 11 games his first 4 seasons, so not an example of durability either.
Additionally, Collins career ended in 2011. The Packers needed a bona fide replacement, especially with only the mediocre Burnett, that sloth Peprah and MD Fucking Jennings on the roster.
Many experts believed Nikki was better off playing DE in a 4-3. The experiment with Kampman at OLB is proof that you don't draft a DE to play OLB.

i don't think we draft soft players but we have been unlucky in the injury dept. perry having "several broken fingers" is an example. i kinda think the "Packer people" thing has held us back a bit. are good character players soft? i think you can have good character players that are nasty on the field. i do think we don't have enough players that play with a nasty edge.

I think Perry has been decent every year, for the few games he has been healthy in those years.Originally posted by Anti-Polar Bear View PostStill should've drafted Smith over Nikki.

That said, I was a big Harrison Smith fan, and wasn't happy seeing him go to MN.

With DT Sharrif Floyd going to IR, the Vikings now have 6 former first-round picks on IR this season.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
