  • If packers are on clock and...

    Adrian is gone, but Calvin is there is it worth taking a WR that early??
    Driver is aging, and sadly will start declining... Driver, Jennings, Johnson .... Or would the packers trade down for more needs, to fill up the gaps that they desperately need...

    I've been thinking about this.

    It is not very common for high pick WR's to become great in the NFL. Most of the top guys at the position today were not so highly touted. With Jennings really looking like he will be very good, I'm not sure if we need to make that pick.

    Secondly, is WR our biggest need? I think RB is a worse situation, especially if Green cannot return to form (which I predict he will not).

      If K-Rob is able to play next year, I think he, Jennings and Driver form a pretty good group. I think Clifton, Harris and Green are three starters who may have to be replaced in the near future, so that is the direction I would go. Actually, I think the Packers will be a respectable team the rest of the year, so talk about Calvin Johnson is probably moot. I don't see the Packers drafting earlier than 10th.

        Agreed. If we are picking around 5 again and there is no stud á la Hawk, or M. Williams, D'Brick or VD then TT trades out.

        Unless we see evidence this season that A-Rod is a potential bust, he will not take a QB in the first...

          Thats why I think they should start A-Rod by mid season if they sense that a respectable season is unattainable. Then we can find out if A-Rod is a good or Bust player. Like it or not, Brett Favre is as good as gone next year.

            Sorry, CH, I can't concede that. There is NO WAY we know this.

            He had a tonne of fun winning against the Kitties and he has repeatedly said it was the right decision to come back this year. He has repeatedly said, he wants to win.

            It is certainly within the realms of reality that with a string finish by this team, Brett Favre looks to next year to return to the winners circle in GB.

              Who is their right mind would ever count on KRob for next season?

                  we trade down....our greatest need will be at RB, if Adrian is in the draft and he's gone, then, you look at the next "crew"....Michael Bush, Kenny Irons, possibly Michael Hart. I think Irons will be a #1 pick, and probably the top RB if Peterson doesn't come out...but i think he could be a mid to late 1st round pick.(a guess)

                      top need is for a RB, as I suppose most agree.

                        Not necessarily. Clifton is looking pretty gimpy to me. LT could be the way to go, or CB if Harris regresses.

                          You take Calvin Johnson and don't look back. At the top of the draft you don't go for need, you go for impact. IMO, CJ is an impact player and a difference maker. It is those type of blue chip studs that can put a game in the win column and those are the type of players currently lacking in Green Bay at present.

                          You don't find freakish type players, typically, past the top part of the draft. Calvin Johnson is a freak.

                            I agree 110% with the freakish talent.... I hope they do draft him if he is there, (only if peterson is gone)..... We need a PLAYMAKER.... What does everyone say we lack on this team??? A BIG PLAYMAKER...

                              Here's a legit question...

                              Without Combine numbers to base a judgement on, how high does David Ball go?

                              Not saying we should use a 1st rounder on him, or any pick for that matter...I'm just curious as to what round everyone thinks he'll be drafted?
