After making the playoffs for eight straight seasons, Green Bay has fallen on hard times recently. It was easy to blame an injury to Aaron Rodgers for the 7-9 finish in 2017, but there was no such excuse for the 6-9-1 debacle of 2018. That record was well earned. Uninspired coaching and a series ofContinue Reading››

Interesting comments. I don't want to be too critical but it's a little confusing.

He rates CB need higher than S then he drafts a S in 2nd round. Personally I think they need to give the young CBs at least one more year before you place them as the # 2 overall need.

The same thinking for WR. They have a lot of young players. They may workout and they may not. No one knows. If a value WR falls to them then I have no problem grabbing them.

Several of his choices are reaches at where he is wanting to take them.

After reading Rodney's article, he does not hit the "bullseye" for me. His alternate #12 overall pick for GB is the TE Hockenson from Iowa. He has GB picking Cody Ford (OL) OKlahoma. I don't see either happening unless everything falls perfect for GB and then they will leap on T.J.Hockenson (TE) Iowa. Failing that, they grab Noah Fant (TE) Iowa for the 1st selection.

With the 30th overall pick, it'all be best player available. They may select an OT, or DE, or WR if they think they are getting the a best available player that also fills a team need.

As far as I and many others see it, GB's greatest need in this draft is a good TE and I believe they will stay focused on that true target.

seriously they loaded up on the DL/OLB rush already and it's pretty deep draft this year for that so I see Gute bidding his time and taking another in the 3rd -4th round. Until then-

Cody Ford is possible. Jawaan Taylor is not. Johnathan Abram is probably on the short list too.
They will keep an eye on the WR and TE situation. In no particular order: Metcalf, Brown & Brown, Parris Campbell plus Hockensen & Fant.

Not grabbing a TE early and hoping that the other pick will see Hockenson or Fant fall into GB's hands is taking a way too large gamble with GB's future.

Devin White is a fine player, but he does not fill GB's 1st priority need. 😁

Nobody knows who will be there at 12 and 30.
He could trade up, down or stay pat.

One thing I'm sure of is, whatever happens, there will be several guys to pick from at 12, if Gutey decides to stay there.

My best guess, Devin Bush at 12, DKMetcalf at 30.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Haven't we had a thread in the past trying to predict the 1st 2 picks?

We need one!

BTW, I like Adderly on Day 2.

Why are we enamored with Nassir Adderly? Because of the last name?

Also, I believe Brian G is going to trade back. He said he's fielded several offers already about trading. I am going to assume it is trading back and wouldn't be surprised if he does just that. I just don't think we're picking at number 12 Thursday.

Zero2Cool (3h) : I feel similar about person and product/service.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
