I'd applaud you 100 times over if I could, Zero. Drafts picks are just that, picks. They have NO proof that they will EVER pan out. Look at how many "can't miss" number one picks have crashed and burned over the years.
With Rodgers, we HAVE a proven top notch QB. Who hopefully has another 5 or so years left of high level play.
A known great who is still young enough and a proven leader for a bunch of "maybe's?"
No thank you!

As if we needed more evidence as to why you, your friend and Porforis will never sniff the Front Office of any professional football team.

I don't think ANY of us here would be qualified to be a NFL GM.
There are only 32 of them in the world, and it's not an easy job to attain. (Even harder to hold on to)

I think I could be the GM for the Cleveland Browns. Not like I could mess it up any more than it is.

Here's a tip! Draft picks do not win Super Bowls. Elite Quarterbacks do! Get that through your melon and appreciate what fortunes we have as Packers fans!

damn kids these days

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

This deal reminds me of three things

The movie Draft Day but in the end that is fantasy and it is Seattle that gets stuck.

John Hadl. That deal burred GB for years. Do I ever wish it would happen to LA too but they will pick up a player with more skill and potential than Hadl had at that point in his career.

Ditka trades it all for Ricky Williams then NO dumps Ditka and gets two #1s when they pawn him off on Miami.

Does anyone else think it is weird that LA is hosting both Goff and Wentz to tryouts? Is this the NFL telling them to keep people guessing to keep up the entertainment factor? If I just sold the farm you better be sure I know who I just did that for.

I noticed a few things on Twitter and thought it was on ESPN (I have only over the air) so I thought I was missing it. And then about 40 minutes later I find it on TV and already knew the winners.

Could the Rams change their mind? Of course, but when they pulled the trigger for the trade, they had one guy locked. Basing this statement off what their GM said that they "obviously" have a leader in the clubhouse.

The only way I'd go through with trading Rodgers at this point, is if the coaching staff is 100% certain that Hundley is the real deal.

Out of all the guys you mentioned, only Dilfer consistently sucked, even in his Super Bowl year. Trading away Rodgers, getting a boatload of picks and then having to go with a guy like Bryan Hoyer still has a rather high possiblity of backfiring.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site sure seems to be down more than up

dfosterf (29-Jul) : 50 cent hookers? I'm moving to Green Bay. I thought it was just real estate that was more affordable there. 😂
