With 90 days to the draft, the next round of rumors begins.

I maintain TT will be looking to unload the pick, not to **** off the fans, but to acquire more bodies which the team will need.

Read a story that Miami will be hot to trot to trade up to get a QB, and if Green Bay has a shot at Vince Young#5, I think that could be the ticket. The Packers might well swap spots and get another high pick or a player in return. The other option is for Green Bay to pick Young and trade A-Rod to Miami and still get another pick. Young would be miscast in a West Coast Offense however, like Vick is in Atlanta. He needs an offense like Mike Martz runs.

I'm not a personnel director, but I guess I don't see the attraction with Cutler. Matt Leinart has headcase issues, but you can see he will be a solid pro. Cutler looks like his very little brother.

Last year, one of the babbling heads made a good point: your first round should be skill players, your second round should be foundation players. The Packers need both. I still think there's also a possibility they might draft the best running back there if they hold the pick.

why not keep Vince if we get him and trade off Rodgers?

That is if anyone would want rodgers at his 3 million dollar price tag. Also I dont consider Young a good fit in GB he would falter bad and running Qbs dont have a great track record for health. GB could also try and trade with Atlanta for Schaub who is a proven QB and would fit GB system nicely. I dont forsee GB trading the fifth pick though unless a team is will to pay for it.
