Comparing Lynch and Peterson...Peterson has the slight edge on Lynch...but Lynch is alot better in the passing game and is one HECK of a blocker. I really hope the Pack has a chance to get Lynch.

The Edge is ugly too, but he still is one hell of a player. Last year was a down year for him, but he didn't have the line in front of him. Lynch reminds me of Edge in his hay day at Indy. They're both very shifty with an element of speed and power and they're both excellent receivers. Lynch is by far the best overall back in the draft this year.Comment

Not to mention that Lynch is a headcase and wasn't he just accused of assault or rape? If that's the case there is no way TT will draft him. He's not a Packer person.

Bretsky kindly posted some highlights of Lynch, but BallHawk, I think, made a good point: Lynch gets caught from behind a lot. I also noticed that he does a lot of bouncing around, dancing, and that doesn't seem to fit the running style the Packers are looking for. Remember, a guy can be good but not fit your system."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

Also, for ZBS you have to be relatively smart."I've got one word for you- Dallas, Texas, Super Bowl"- Jermichael FinleyComment

What's wrong with BallHawk's smarts? He seems fine to me."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

That wasn't Ballhawk that said that, it was OS PA. But I thought he looked plenty fast in those videos. If you look you'll see that most of the runs that ended up in TD were blown up at the line of scrimmage. So Lynch had to work his magic to get through traffic and then turn up field.Originally posted by FritzComment

I disagree but if the Pack takes Lynch I'll be rooting for the guy. He does look cool on the highlight reels."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

I agree. We need north/south runners. Peterson would be the perfect ZBS back but he'll be long gone.Originally posted by Fritz
Michael Bush, while not as shifty, mgiht be more effectie in a north/south scheme like the ZBS. Also, he could be had in the second because of his early, unfortunate season ending injury.
I don't rule Lynch out because of this but I do think it is something that will go into considerationa and make guys like Nelson or Hall more valuable to the Packers.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

I was joking because he always rips on Lynch. As far as I know Ballhawk and I don't have a beef any more, so I think were cool.Originally posted by FritzComment

He fits our system perfectly. Not only was he brought up in a school that implemented the ZBS, but they also incorporated screen passes to the RB and let him work his magic. That sounds a lot like the Packers offense to me. And the one cut theory only applies when the RB is behind the line. Once you get past the line man you can do what ever you want to get to the end zone. I think it's a little bit out of line to say he doesn't fit our system when you look at all those aspects.Originally posted by FritzComment

In fairness to Lynch, there was a complaint filed against him. No charges were ever filed against him, much less dropped. Ahman Green has been in more trouble with the law than Lynch.I can't run no more
