2018 My Mastery Mockery of a Draft

[mraynrand]

Nwosu was available when the Packers picked in the 2nd round. German Shepherd went with Sloth Jackson instead. Like Woodbuck, I am getting pissed about the German Shepherd not drafting a bona fide OLB.

The last time the Pack drafted a sloth corner from Iowa, that guy turned out to be an abomination.

It would have been nice to get an OLB, sure. But maybe this Jackson is more Jekyll than Hyde - more Sherman than Gunter... Stay tuned...

Hope you're right. Hyde-awful sloth corners make me want to disavow shutting down Darren Charles.

Is that German for Pro Bowler?
