In my opinion using the 12 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft to pick Rashan Gary can be compared with the draft of Tony Mandarich. Both were wasted high value picks that turned out to be large "BUST".

The coaches that are stuck with him will/are trying to put a positive face on the situation. The reality is that GM Gutekunst would loose "face" were he to release Gary and cut the teams loss on this mistake. I see one more season before Gary is finally released. In the mean time perhaps Gary can be taught to do at least 1 positive play for the team that has already carried him longer than most would.

Prepare to be skewered Smokey. Don't you know you can't declare someone a bust after one year!!!!

Guys like you and I need to be taught that it takes 3 years before that can be asserted....as likely Burks will be labeled after this year.

Ha Ha Ha

It is recognized by most that unless you are a QB, a 1st round draft pick is expected to contribute right off as a starter or as a strong relief for a starter.

Rashan Gary may possess gifted physical abilities, but he has yet to show himself to be a football player. Physical abilities alone can easily be countered by an opposing "football" player. Time will prove me right about Gary. Until he is released he will remain excess baggage that is taking up a spot that could be filled with a real football player.

Why is this in Random Babble? Seems like Packers Talk to me.

I was worried this was going to be a discussion on the benefits of a squeegee vs tissues related to some hazing ritual.

Anyways, Gary is stuck in a position where Gute picked up two major free agents. I wonder if he won't get a chance until after one of the Smith's move on. Either that or he needs to be trained for a MLB role which would seem like a strange reason to draft him for.

I agree, but I did not begin this thread. I only hope the Gutekunst learned his lesson from this pick. Love may be a QB, but he get's exempted for a few years to learn from Rodgers. If nothing else Gary should have been able bull past blockers to chase QBs.

There is a very good reason the thread is in Random Babble.

I screwed up when creating the post.

Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (27-Mar) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
