With the 83rd pick...

The Green Bay Packers Select.... "One kid I feel sorry for."

This is going to be a young man, a kid, who will be doing all he can to make it in the NFL, adjust to the speed of the game, digest a new play book and system, however, he will be THE PLAYER.

The Player G.B. got for Brett Favre.

I feel sorry for this kid already. I am sure the cerebral challenged press will point this out, and badger him about it.

It is not something a kid needs in camp.

I hope the press does not put pressure on this young emerging talent and let's him develop at his own pace, or the pace of other 3rd round selections.

Perhaps the Packers should trade the Favre pick? Trade up or trade down. I look at the 83rd pick as.... Bad Luck.

Your thoughts?

(Stupid topic? Who knows......Hey it is the off season and I am just trying to keep this forum interesting.)

I say don't trade it just because of how we got it. We need to get the best player that we can possibly get to help this team.

---

I'm not to bothered by that. I'll just go into training camp and start at punter right away.

We'll see how my speed will be utilized on fakes etc.

G.P.G.

I am not saying "Throw it away" That is stupid.

I am just thinking if you are going to make a move up or down, this would be a good pick to do it with.

RP with how trade down happy Ted Thompson is, i really se this pic being traded.

Ohhh.... I saw that coming.

Like a Fricken Freight Train on the flats of Nebraska.

It's not a bad thing to be that player.. the player should be honored. If anything.. it will raise his moral and he may set higher expectations for himself- they could look at it as a form of destiny and what if it does turn into a sick player it would be awesome.

BZZT!!!!!! :)

Just so you know...Ron Wolf liked trading down too. And you say it like it's a bad thing.

I don't know if the media will really rail the player about being drafted in this spot...it's not like Brett went on to win 2-3 Super Bowls after the trade.

OK.
