    Ted is simply into his own world. That world is nothing like the world that the Draft Analysts make available for us.
    How will Ted sleep at night knowing this?

    Teds not the only one.

      When in danger, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.

        There are about 3 or 4 corners still available with a second grade without reaching. I agree with McGinn that there simply not enough depth at the position to sustain any kind of legitimate pass defense in 2017.

          I think Joe Mixon is the best player left in the draft. He has one incidence. He punched a woman in the face when he was 18. I punched my sister in the face when I was 14, she was bigger than me at the time and 15. But regardless, I kept punching her and damn near killed her. I didn't know my strength. He was 18, felt rejected and hurt, she came at him and he dropped her.

          I don't see a bad person. I see a fragile person who didn't know how to be responsible for that strong body of his just yet. Everyone is going to regret passing on him. Punching a woman in the face at 18 isn't that bad. If he kept having incidents, that would be bad, but he didn't. He's good. He learned.

                I agree except for using a 2nd rounder on a HB....want defense with both picks.

                  my guess is mixon goes with one of the first few picks tonight

                    Mixon, Kamara, even Cook...not a lot of difference to worry about. They are basically part of a committee back there with Monty anyway. My wife's a die-hard Florida State fan, so I've seen a lot of Cook. I don't understand his combine numbers. The guy is money...at least on the field. He's quick and can break tackles. Whether he's fast enough to win the edge in the NFL? I don't know. I do know that if I was TT I'd have a hard time passing him up.

                    That said, Kamara's the safe choice and the Pack seems to like "safe."
                    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

                      I would bet my shirt that TT trades down again with the first pick, maybe 5 spots, and then maybe even trades-up from the second pick to ~15 in the second round.

                      He takes a pass rusher and a CB. I think he will get Mixon in the third.

                        McDowell would look good in Green and Gold.

                        One thing for sure, if TT screws this up, given the position he's in right now, he ought to retire ASAP. LOL

                          Take Mixon if he is there.

                            the 33rd pick is the first pick of the second round. Where the fuck else would he be?

                              true...if that was a need. it would be a great signing.
                              let's start a list of who was drafted between 29 and wherever our first pick ends up at...

                              29. Cleveland Browns: David Njoku, TE, Miami
                              30. Pittsburgh Steelers: T.J. Watt, OLB, Wisconsin
                              31. San Francisco 49ers: Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama
                              32. New Orleans Saints: Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin

                                So...a QB anyone?

                                Packers General Manager Ted Thompson traded out of the first round last night, landing the No. 33 pick in a deal with the Browns and then let the football world he was open to trading back again to kick off the second round.


                                Normally, I'd say this is an obvious smokescreen to drum up a trade. But time and time again, don't we hear that the Packers under TT don't play that game? I'm still erring on the side of smokescreen though....

                                But it isn't unprecedented to grab a player at a position GB doesn't need (at all) because they anticipate his value to be significantly higher than anyone else (and even than the position he's being picked at). But I'm still having a really hard time buying that GB is considering a QB at 33 considering the other needs/available players.
