So our dime package is going to be Burnett, Clinton-Dix, Shields, Williams, Hyde, and Hampton - with Davon House playing for whoever's injured that week. It gets a lot worse around the league.

Hopefully Dix is very intelligent - just wish he was faster. Nick Collins was sub 4.4 and Dix timed and 4.58 - that's a huge speed difference. I think a lot of Packers fans took Collins for granted - we've been very spoiled at that position.

My hope for Dix is that he is solid and doesn't give up bone-head plays.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

All this talk pre draft how we needed speed to stop guys like Kaepernick and we take a turtle. I truly don't understand what Ted Thompson does in Round 1.

I am tired of giving up the big plays. hopefully he will help shut them down. TE coverage is a huge plus.

I think the most baffling thing to me is... FA was available to us to find a decent safety. Anything would've been an upgrade considering we had MD Jennings there. Instead of using FA to fill that need, we use our 1st rounder in a need pick.

He could be a fantastic pick...but this is one of the guys I just didn't want on this team.
