      I voted Thrilled.

      I would have been thrilled with either Hawk or Davis. I was friggin extactic when the Jets chose D'brick.

          Mistake, we have the same linbacker in Barnett. Needed a MLB.

            First time in a long time that I am actually happy with the Packers first round draft pick.

              He wasn't worth a 5, Urlacher was taken what? 9th and Lewis was taken a 6th? He doesn't have MLB qualities. He is Barnett minus the pass coverage skills. He will be where Barnett is in now in 3 years.

                Hawk is so far different from Barnett. You obviously don't have a clue .

                  Hawk is a lot better than Barnett..There's a reason why Barnett was a borderline first round pikc (29th) and Hawk went 5th..Hawk is a better prospect..

                    Hey ND and Nutz..I don't know if you caught it on the other thread but in hindsight I think you guys were right on with Hawk.

                    Maybe next year I can earn my way as a scout on your draft articals...I'd like to scout safteys and DB's if I had the chance.

                      Right; Hawk is Dat Nguyen at best.

                        Yeah okay if you say so. He can't blow up guards, his game is horisontal and he over pursues. Sound familiar? It should, that was the analysis on Barnett when he was picked. He may be faster but he isn't quicker then Barnett and that is a fact. Apparently you haven't watched the guy play. They showed all of his sacks, not one, I repeat not one was talking on a lineman, always followed someone through a hole or came from the outside. Sound familiar? It should, Barnett was the same type of college player. He isn't Urlacher (9th) or Lewis (5th). THAT is a fact. He may be a first rounder but not a top 5 or even a top 10.

                            Who can blow up a good guard ? Certainly not Urlacher or Lewis; LB's need some protection. Regarding all of his sacks being uncontested, that is crap. I've watched Hawk for four years and he beat guards. And he beat guards at the point of attack too. Did you see his play at the goal line against Notre Dame in the Bowl game ? His numbers and mesaurables are very similar to Urlachers; that is a FACT. It is no fact that he is worse or better than Urlacher.

                            You would NOT HAVE ONE GM in the NFL saying Hawk was not a top 10 player in this draft; that's just a silly statement.

                              I have never really seen Hawk play (last Ohio St game I saw was championship when MCGahee got his knee rearranged) but something that bothers me about Barnett is that he seems to lack instinct at times. He's good but he's not a playmaker, a difference maker. He has had a couple of INTs but I have never seen him level anyone like Collins did as a safety last season. I hope Hawk is the punishing type and seriously considers hurting the opposing QBs and RBs.
