Here-in lies the problem. If he doesn't trade is it because he didn't want to or because he couldn't find anyone to pay his price? As fans, we'll probably never know and any seemingly unworthy player picked will be labeled a reach for his entire career.

I was playing around on first-pick.com, wanting to see what it would take to get Leonard Williams.

Cost to trade up from #30 to #5 was:
4th #30
6th #30
7th #30
Next year's first rounder.

Not saying this trade would be available (my guess is the above wouldn't be near enough to trade that high). But if it was, would you make it.

FWIW, in the game I followed the pick by trading down from the Packers 2nd round pick #30 multiple times to get a total of one extra late third and three picks spread across the fourth round.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Is it just me, or do the Packers seem not to be worried about building a Defense to be FEARED ? I know that they are in a giant poker game and the winners get the best players. I just want the Packers to win .

With ideally the offense putting up 30+ in the first half and have the "average" defense there just to look for turnovers. I dont believe the Packers will ever be a truly balanced team while Aaron is hitting his prime.

Bend , but don't break is not a Defense , it is a surrender . For some teams , putting constant pressure on their QB is the only way to stop them . An ILB has to stop the run and cover against the pass . The Corner Back needs to be fast , smart , and be of sufficient height to to be of use against the taller faster receivers that many teams are recruiting . :magnifygl

I say wait to see who is dropping. If what he is looking for is still there later, why give up picks to move up? But if someone outstanding is dropping then it's worth it. It will all kind of depend on whether there is a run on a certain position and who that leaves out there.

If Shelton drops into the teens, I say go get him, but if they are thinking ILB there are a couple to be available when we draft.

Well the void at NT seems to be filled. Therefor the Packers would logically be looking at CB's and ILB's . Ted Thompson will be throwing out smoke screens and not promoting players that he likes . Therefor if Packers.com profiles a player , it is a Ted Thompson smoke screen .

beast (18h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? šŸ„ŗ I think that means you missed more than half of them šŸ˜¢
dfosterf (21h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (23h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (23h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (23h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (23h) : Against tbd
dfosterf (23h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (23h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (23h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???
Zero2Cool (23h) : Ugh... kids these days!
dfosterf (23h) : I'm gonna go do some more mock draft hell instead šŸ¤Ŗ
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
dfosterf (27-Mar) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
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 (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Lengthy explanation at PFF if you click the link

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Shouldn't be penalized cuz official screwed up
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
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
