Packers Live Draft Cam

I am ready what's the hold up? LET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD! 4 rounds today!!!!

Who did we get, did I miss it? Do we have 19 4th rounders yet?

No but rumor has it we will end up with 26 5th round and 45 6th rounds picks before it is all over.

Sweet I would prefer as many D III players as possible.

Times not passing today !!!

especially when you're stuck at work.

That's exactly why I called in sick op:

Bozz speaks.

So what time does it actually start lol ... I saw three different times ... I saw one place that covers @ 1 ... another one at 2 ... and another one at 3 so wich one is it?????

3 Eastern 2 Central

how come it's starting so late? It's only 1st round or ...?

only 2 rounds today.

That sucks

Roy's 13. Nice.

Only 3 hours left...

Alright, I was willing to give the NFL the benefit of the doubt when they decided to move the draft back...but c'mon already.

Come on baby two hours. One hour until the lounge. WHOOO HOOO.

Well ill have my Draft Tracker open and following it but i have TV to watch other things

From yahoos 32 draft questions:

4. Green Bay Packers: Whomever Ted Thompson picks, can we all agree that the GM has earned the benefit of the doubt?

Yeah but then we have to wait another 6000000 hours until GB actually drafts someone.

After the fans have gone off on TT 2 out of the last 3 years for his selections I guess he has earned the right to pick whom ever he wants. And still get a little benefit of the doubt. :kickcan:
But it sure is fun to question his wisdom.

Definitely.

Just throwing this out there as a hypothetical situation but if the Packers take an offensive lineman and move him to LG where he would start IMO over Colledge. That means all of Thompson's 1st rounders could very well start for the Packers on opening day. That's good drafting .

We'll be at the bar watching the Draft tonight. I can't wait. It's like a holiday for my friends and I.

Just take the best player available

I am a firm believer in drafting the best player left no matter what the position is. I also think if the Packers do that they will have a chance to get an impact player even at 30. What I don't want them to do is reach in the first round. I don't want them to look at filling a need with the first pick either, just take the best player. You can never have enough great players and having too many great players at one position creates an opportunity for a trade. For as much as Thompson talks about doing this, he doesn't. If you go back to last years draft, you won't convince me that Harrell was the best player available. I will also say that when there is a good player available for something you need it's hard not to take that good player rather than taking the best player.
