Packers have the 16th pick. Last time they had the 16th pick, they took Justin Harrell.

I'm an Irish Canadian.

I'm glad we are not picking 16th so far.

We'll go lower. Pick higher.

Our first priority has to be to fire Capers... until that's done, it doesn't matter where we draft, or who we draft.

I think it is time for Capers to go, but for this game, the defense actually played well enough to win, especially given the three turnovers to start the game. It's the offense that is stinking up the joint, and to that end, I am profoundly disappointed in Hundley. He seems absolutely averse to stepping up into the pocket, and he just does not seem to be able to find the open guy when guys are actually open. I thought he would be much better than he has been so far.

Looks like ol' Fritzy was wrong on this one.

also a TT pick

so we're looking for a guy who everyone has as a 3rd or later pick because he's only managed to play 3 games in his college career do to injuries, but has flashed potential in those three games

Packers currently have the 17th pick. The last time they had the 17th pick (1960), they selected DB Bob Jeter.

TT woulda traded down

i think OT is a major need

baluga can't be counted on at all to be healthy and spriggs just flat out sucks

[wist43]

ILB is still probably our biggest need...

Unfortunately for me, I slo-mo'd quite a few TB inside running plays... neither Ryan or Martinez can play at all. As bad at playing LB as Hundley is at QB or Spriggs is at OT.

I'm sure TT and co. think they're fine all around though.

Martinez has a lot of tackles ala "AJ Hawk". Chasing things down 5 yards down the field.

It's tough work playing ILB for the Packers, because the Packers play just 2 D-Linemen more often than just about any team in the NFL. The Packers ILB's are not protected from blockers as much as on other teams. Martinez has played very well. When an ILB has to make a tackle 5 yards down field, it's not always the ILB's fault.

5 yds or more... I saw several examples today where he could have either filled a hole with authority, or at least stepped up, taken on the lead blocker, and closed down the angle. Instead, he consistently sat where he was and waited passively to absorb the oncoming lead blocker and runner. Result?? Consistent 7-8 yd gains.

Ryan was just as bad.

Whenever I take the time to break individual plays down, it's almost always the same sad result.

To be fair to them though... a lot of their hesitation, timidity, and lack of playmaking is likely the fault of Capers.

One of the announcers on the post-game show called a spade, a spade.... he said, "no need to rush Rodgers back for a team that isn't going anywhere anyway".

The Packers are not a good football team.

MOAR PASS RUSH PLS
