I'm have the feeling that using FA this year was in the cards before we signed Rodgers and Matthews deals last year. Setting up the amount of space we have seems to be intentional.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Man, I hope you are right. Just because our needs are too great to be filled with one draft, and the hopes that players returning from injury will pick up where they left off (Hayward, Bulaga) and/or show real development (Perry, Worthy, Sherrod, Barrington).

Hopefully he will pull the trigger - for a Safety anyway.

I also disagree that we are not in those dire straits at so many positions. Safety for sure, ILB almost as sure, OLB probably, but that's about it. The D-line is fine; The O-Line is what it is - giving what we have one more year to upgrade in house probably is best.

I don't hate him so much as I'm conflicted about him. I always favored "draft and develop" over "go hog wild in free agency". However, he has kinda been a little bit too much of a good thing that way. And of course, we do have such a super winning record over his whole tenure. On the other hand, most of that is due to Aaron Rodgers, and things could be so much better if Thompson had done a better job.

He's a lot like George W. Bush - kept the country safe from terrorism after 9/11 and on top in the world, and everybody free and prosperous - on the other hand, there were (inexplicable) complaints that things should have been better. Hopefully, when Thompson's successor comes along, we won't find out how much worse it can be - same as after Bush. hahahahahahahaha I'm sure you agree with every word of that, Dakota.

Zero2Cool (4h) : I hope they take a Punter at 9th overall. Be bold!

Mucky Tundra (5h) : I may end up eating those words but I think they need a lot more talent then their 4 picks can provide

Mucky Tundra (5h) : I really hope they stand pat and Draft a WR

Mucky Tundra (5h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (5h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend Penei Soul 4yrs - 112mil

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (24-Apr) : DT Byron Murphy II, Texas... whom some believe is the next Aaron Donald (or the closest thing to Donald)

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

beast (22-Apr) : Someday we'll have a draft betting scandal

beast (21-Apr) : Sometimes looking extremely amazing, sometimes looking extremely lost

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
