[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 716704, member: 7261"] Again.....I am not "debating" if Hyde, Lacy, Tretter and Jones" were good picks and played well for 4 years, I think that is a debate all in itself and I would probably say by using hindsight the order which you listed them in (Hyde, Lacy, Tretter & Jones) is the order I would put them in for value based on position picked in draft. You didn't mention Bahk, he was the one player in my mind that prevented the draft year from being almost forgettable. My point is that the team retained 1 guy out of the 11 they drafted. I am not sure how a person calls that a success for a draft and develop team. I will give you an example of what I would say could be called successful. Bahk is who he is today and in GB. Lacy didn't get injured nor had a weight issue, played his last 2 years like his first 2 and was resigned. Jones actually played up to his first round billing and was resigned. Hyde and Tretter were considered valuable enough to resign. THAT would have been a successful draft moving forward. As it stands now, the Packers have Bahk and possibly 4 compensatory picks to show for the 2013 draft. Maybe what makes this draft less successful in my mind isn't the players themselves, but the fact that out of the 11 drafted, TT only saw 1 worth keeping around past year 4. Which also was his best move of this draft class, resigning Bahk before the season. I'm not so sure Bahk is even a Packer, had they let him get to Free Agency. [/QUOTE]
