I think you need to be fired, because you are..... O.K. I am thinking of the non adults that are reading this....need to stop here.
TT is probably the best thing to happen to the Pack since Favre and Reggie.
None of us knew Colledge or Jennings (for example) till TT drafted them. None of us know this draft class yet, but from the film on Youtube and the interviews, I'd say, we got 4 new Packers today.
We got FOUR PACKERS!
These guys will be with us at least the next 4 years. They have my loyalty, as does TT.Comment

You have a lot of faith Tarlem; to me TT is an unproven executive with two years of experience. I dont' see any guarantee that those first four picks will be great or terrible. Up to this point his first draft was average at best and his second draft looks to be wonderful. But in Colledge and Jennings, it's not like TT discovered these guys; they were both highly rated.Originally posted by Tarlam!

I don't know Bretsky - maybe you followed things more closely than I did last year, but I don't recall Colledge as being that highly rated. I don't know that anyone's anointing TT, but he does appear to know what he's doing, and he's staying true to his board, apparenty.
I'm willing to give the guy two more seasons to see if he's doing the job or not. If the Pack isn't at least a 10-6 kind of team in 2008, then I'd say it's time to seriously consider where the team is, but until TT gets to have a few draft picks play for three or four years, so we can see how they pan out, it's too early to scorch the guy. I'm nolt thrilled with the names we have from the first day, but they are just names. Do you or I really know that Antonio Pittman is a better back for Green Bay than Brandon Jackson?
Having said that, I understand the frustration. Aaron Rouse sounds like a stiff, and James Jones - wtf?? But I'm going to wait and see."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

Colledge had a round 2-3 grade last year; every team knew about him.
I don't mind Rouse; if we don't get Moss I'm not fond of the WR there
But what the heck do I know

I'm in the same wait and see boat as Fritz. Some of the guys bashing the picks becasue they didn't have visibility to our guys on their boards are lunatics. People take their mock drafts WAY too seriously.Comment

College actually had a solid 2nd round grade last year, but you knew his rank was all over the board. Teams that played schemes like GB would have him ranked higher. Spitz was more like a 4th round grade."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

The more I look at Harrell, the more I like him... and Jackson has a chance.
The other two picks are head scratchers and don't seem to improve the team whatsoever.wistComment

You're right, I do.Originally posted by Bretsky
College and Jennings were highly rated? Boy, I wish someone would dig up last year's draft thread, 'cause IIRC, no one knew rightly what kind of guys TT had just selected.
A lot of detective work by fellow rats helped us understand.
I only annoint TT with greatness, because we are not in cap hell, he deals with renegades quietly and efficiently these days (he learned a lot from the Walker debacle, whereas Shermy learned little from MM) and he sticks with his board.
I think he has his scouts briefed better and he is a 100% improvement over what we had. Did he draft the next Favre with A-Rod? Is Harrell worthy of once wearing the #92 at Tennessee? Probably, NO WAY. Wait and see.
But that's not what you were asking or suggesting. I just promted the question before it came up.Comment

Last year's draft thread. It's on page 3 right now.
