I read a few predictions saying TCU's Paul Dawson will be picked by the Packers and it got me curious.

A.J. Hawk
Height: 6' 1"
Weight: 248 lbs
40 Dash: 4.59
225 Press: 24 reps
Vertical: 40
Broad: 9' 7"
20 Shuttle: 3.96

Rated number 1 out of 145 OLB's and 6th in the entire draft.



Paul Dawson
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 235 lbs
40 Dash: 4.93
225 Press: 21 reps
Vertical: 28
Broad: 9' 1"
20 Shuttle: 4.49

Rated number 1 out of 154 ILB's and 57th in the entire draft.




While both were considered tackling machines, it appears Dawson is a less athletic version of Hawk.

I doubt there are any ILB prospects in this entire draft that are less athletic than last years Hawk. It's been quite a while since our Hawk was anything like 2006 Hawk athletically.

Dawson should be available in the third.

Dawson's combine looked awful and I get that the combine/testing isn't everything. However, this guy just rubs me the wrong way. You're put on a platform out of your element to show your possible future employer what you can do and when you tank pretty much every test, instead of saying you can do better, you come off as a pompous ass claiming yourself as the best linebacker in the draft because of your stats. I doubt for one second that Paul Dawson actually runs a 4.9.

His cockiness and lack of care just give me a bad vibe. There are already red flags on him not attending or continually being late to meetings while at TCU. I wouldn't mind the Packers taking him if he dropped to later rounds but if this is the 30th pick in the draft, I would be nervous.

Hawk was the top rated OUTSIDE LB.

Yet when the need came, he moved to the middle.

Oh hell forget this.

Doesn't matter.

Hawk is gone,
Haters can finally celebrate.

Gonna be fun reading next years
Live chat to see who the new whipping boy will be

Sorry Buckeye, we're not celebrating, just wondering why it took so long. Hawk has been pulling the snow plow and playing flag football for years.

We understand your loyalty, as amusing it may be. Take care now Sweetness, we just had huge additions by subtraction with the cutting of Hawk and Jones. I guess maybe we should be celebrating.

Right there it is.
Hawk was around long before Jones showed up.
Yet ,for SOME reason you always link them together.
And now Hawk will only be remembered for his last year, as if that is how his whole career went.
Maybe if Ted could have found a more talented player,one that could stay healthy, to play beside Hawk,maybe you all wouldn't be such haters.

Better start appreciating players like Hawk.

There's only room for so many superstars, the rest of the team better be solid guys who can stay on the field and do their jobs year in and year out.
Let's rehash this again.
I was the 1st to say that Hawk would be gone thus year.
I said it right after Ted drafted Barrington and Hawk restructured his contract.
So don't pull that Damn loyalty line out, because it is pure bullshit!

I don't know what you've been watching on the football field with Hawk, but I've been watching offenses expose him as our weak link. For some reason people want to applaud him taking a paycut, but should have been given the big contract in the first place?

You've always looked at Hawk through your scarlet sunglasses, so maybe it's time for you to just get over your butthurt that many Packers fans rip on this guy.

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.

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