Also teams at 25 are "so close" and probably trade up just as often ...just my theory without looking.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostYep. The team holding the 25th pick probably doesn't have a 1st round grade on anyone left. The teams that move up are trying to fill a specific need.The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince Lombardi

it was actually last year
giants had #25. traded to the jags to move up one spot, then jags traded it to the bills for pick #27 and a 4th

A clique is when one dumbass claims something and some other dumbasses follow like sheep saying oh yeah, oh yeah, it must be true. A common characteristic of such cliques is that they have vastly overrated ideas of the extent that their crap is swallowed. Sound familiar? hahahahaOriginally posted by sharpe1027 View PostWhen te entire world disagrees with you, they're not a clique.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

clique
noun
ˈklik also ˈklēk

Nope.

it does sound stupid when you first hear it, but then after you know the details you go "oh well yeah that makes perfect sense"

Texas DL T'Vondre Sweat arrested for DWI. Likely 2nd or 3rd round pick.
Sweat, 22, was booked Sunday afternoon into Travis County Jail, according to online records, after being arrested by Austin police. He faces a Class B misdemeanor, which in Texas carries a fine up to $2,000 and 180 days in jail.I can't run no more

Seems every year there's at least one of these draft prospects that does something stupid right before the draft. I think it was the DLineman, Carter, last year? He still went in the 1st round, but dropped.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostTexas DL T'Vondre Sweat arrested for DWI. Likely 2nd or 3rd round pick.

Think he's completely off some teams' draft boards now because of this? His combine showing wasn't too good too if I remember.

I didn't start paying attention to him until he blew the doors off of the Combine, but I think he's on a lot of people's radar now. He's a freakish athlete who just rocked the Combine, but that injury history.... 2 ACLs, on I think the same knee, shoulder surgery... plus, I've noticed he often has a hard time beating blockers (even tight ends), which - when you consider that a lot of the blockers he has touble beating are 2, even 3 years younger than he is - makes him slip a bit for me. He also plays high, which seems to make it easier for blockers to knock him off balance, and has some weaknesses in his tackling technique - tends to give up a lot of yards after contact.Originally posted by red View Postyeah those are
good looking player, but i don't think you take him in the first with those flags
But he's a smart player, with a great attitude, and technique is coachable. I think 2nd round is a little early, but I wouldn't mind him in the 3rd and would be quite happy to get him in the 4th. I just suspect someone will take him in the first 60 or so, because he's a pretty shiny object. He's got a terrific upside, if he stays healthy.Last edited by Frozen Tundra; 04-07-2024, 05:42 PM.

I watched a Mock draft on NFL Network a couple weeks ago and the show peeps had the Packers taking him in the 1st round at pick 25. I was like, no way are the Packers taking him there.Originally posted by Frozen Tundra View PostI didn't start paying attention to him until he blew the doors off of the Combine, but I think he's on a lot of people's radar now.

If he's there in the 4th round, it's a no brainer, but I agree with you, he's most likely gone somewhere in the late 2nd or 3rd round.
