[QUOTE="ivo610, post: 455117, member: 2128"] Your snarky comments made me laugh. Dont get upset about this, try and provide facts. "If I know so much", makes you sound angry. Was Sherrod or Bulaga taken in the top half of the draft? No neither were. Not overvalued. I think Joe Thomas is exactly what they hoped he would be. He is on his way to a solid hall of fame career and should be an all decade player. Consistently the best tackle in the league. The argument is his position is valued too highly over others, Joe as a player has played as highly as you could dream of, but even the best left tackle isnt worth being picked that high. As I previously pointed out to you, the quality of the O line has gone up and down since Rodgers took over. Yet the packers never fell out of the top 5 on passing offense. That proves that the O line has little impact on the our offensive output. I think you actually without knowing it, reiterated my point. You use the 2007 SB as an example (went to that game and loved every second of it) where the Giants won the SB with a dominate pass rush and a below avg left tackle. The value in that team was the defensive line, not the offensive line. They got by with a left tackle that wasnt very good in pass protection and dominated a fairly good patriots offensive line with a great D line. [/QUOTE]
