Him and Lacy would do a number on defenses! Sure we already got Harris and Franklin but why not? Power running all the way! 🖐

Last season, Adrian Peterson and Toby Gerhart did a number on the Packers and the announcers made note they are two different style running backs. The Packers were trying to stop Gerhart with the scheme designed to slow Peterson.

The point? If you are going to compliment a running back, you do so with a different style and hope to catch the defense with the wrong personnel.

Blount is used up,(not really but to make my point, let's say he is).

Ted will probably trade out of the 1st round, get an extra 2nd and 3rd rnd pick from someone else and use that extra 2nd round pick on a rb.

Carlos Hyde out of Ohio State would probably still be available.

Lacy, Franklin, Hyde, Harris.

I could live with a stable of young guns like that taking the pressure off of Rodgers and the passing game.

Blount wouldn't be a bad pick up, as we have seen in the past, a team can never have enough rb's ready to step in.

Packers have two in Harris and Franklin, and whoever else they add during the draft or after the draft. I think we are solid at the RB position, for the first time in years.

Transitioning LGB to safety would take too much time. I don't think it would be a good pickup.

Starks likely comes back. There's no market for RBs right now.

Zero2Cool (20h) : I hope they take a Punter at 9th overall. Be bold!

Mucky Tundra (21h) : I may end up eating those words but I think they need a lot more talent then their 4 picks can provide

Mucky Tundra (21h) : I really hope they stand pat and Draft a WR

Mucky Tundra (21h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (21h) : 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

Mucky Tundra (23-Apr) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

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

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.
