I have to take the 97 team simply because of the defense, especially the secondary. Now, conpare with 2010 team things get much closer as I would take Rodgers over Favre any day as Favre would be worth at least one if not two ints.

I think that taking a player like James was going to be more of a BEST PLAYER AVAILABLE pick ala Ted Thompson over weakest position which was obviously CB.

I agree with pretty much everything you said except to go along with another thing you mentioned, RG is really out WEAKEST position on the team and that needs to be addressed at least by the second round or preferably late first round to try to get a player who is good enough out of the gate to...

I am just fine with Pettine running more defensive backs. In the modern NFL, speed is everything; tackling won't matter if the LBs can't run with the guys they are trying cover. I am much more comfortable with Williams, King, Jackson, Alexander, Clinton-Dix, and Brice on the field because they...

Perhaps but we currently have NO ONE in the pipeline that would be able to replace Bulaga so they had better get something going soon if that is the plan.

That isn't THAT old for an OT. I predict that they will sign him to a 3-4 deal worth $20-25 million (discount from his current contract) and yes sometime thereafter look for a long term option. One prospect I could see as a real possibility is G Connor McGovern from Penn St who is being touted...

Oh I pay attention (at times much to my frustration) but I am also seeing them pay a lot of money to Rodgers so they would be wise to protect that investment. We have had too many whiffs lately in the draft and develop efforts on OL. We had Bahktiari and Linsley turn out doing that and not...

As an Iowa fan this pains me a bit but I agree that I would like to see the Packers take one of Wisconsin's OL to fill our void at RG such as Benzschawel. Josh Allen wouldn't be bad to pick-up as an edge rusher either. But we for sure need to sure up the OL and I don't mean take a few token...

I don't think we really need a new tackle as Bulaga and Bahktiari are good tackles who in the grand scheme are not breaking the bank. I think the Spriggs experiment is about over. What I could see happening is that we take either a play-maker (hopefully RB) and edge rusher in the first round...

So who would everyone take with our two first rounders? My hope is that we go after a really good Guard and then either a top flight RB or LB. While Jones and Williams are nice options, I think it would be very beneficial to have a RB (wish they wouldve taken D. Cook a couple years ago) to...

I agree with a lot of what people are saying on here that expecting bulaga to completely shut down Mack is frankly unrealistic especially considering it was his first game back coming off his ACL injury. The fact that he did so well on him in the second half I believe is a testament to how good...

I think Cobb is or at least needs to be iff of the trading block. A lot of what he does well compliments A-Rod's off script style which is only possible through their years-long rapport. I also tend to think this is why a rod was upset when Nelson was cut; he knew that he was going to need guys...

I have been saying for quite a while that the Packers need to address the interior line situation long term for the guards. I firmly believe that balaga bakhtiari and Lindsley are still the long-term answers at their respective positions. But to have a truly Elite lying again we are going to...

Damn, REALLY wanted Kelvin Benjamin.

Along with any player or free agent.....
