  • Whens the Last Time?

    The Packers drafted a Pro Bowl player in the first round? If memory serves me correct Kampy and Driver were late round picks, why don't we just trade down out of the first round. Hell just trade all our picks for the entire 7th round, we'd have a better chance. Take a bunch of Marques Colstons and hope to hell they turn out. The emphasis that's put on the first round compared to the general results doesn't seem worth it. It's all fools gold let someone else take a shining to a player available and let them trade up to our spot, we'll take a second and 3rd round pick for it. Just a thought, granted Barnett and Hawk are well on their way but you can't really vouch for anyone else in recent memory. And as far as Kirwans mock draft having us take Jamaal Anderson, just remember the last time we took a waiver on a Jamaal in the first round.

    Javon Walker (2002) and Bubba Franks (2000) were 1st round picks that went tp the Pro Bowl. Nick Barnett (2003) has a shot. Impossible to judge Rodgers (2005). Hawk (2006) will probably make it.
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      "I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision. The problem is getting him to put down his beer and come out of the stands and do those things." - Danny Murraugh

          Sterling Sharpe. We've done well with 1st round wideouts.

              Insert "Packers" for most NFL teams!

              I seem to remember an article about the number of players selected in the first round making the pro bowl is not all that much better than rounds # 2 through 4...

              Can we say crap shoot
              My Two favorite teams are the Packers, and whoever plays the Vikings!
