Hawk is clearly past the point where you can have a logical argument regarding his draft position or anyone else's. It's a footnote but not a discussion point. You put the best talent on the field whether he's a 1st or 7th rounder. I agree that the Packers could conceivably trade or cut Hawk, and I'm not opposed to it, but everyone on here needs to forget that he was a #5 pick. Anyone who argues that another team would take that into account when considering a trade is a rube. They'll look purely at his production, potential (what's left in the tank), his salary, and potential compensation to the Pack. The guy is a legitimately decent ILB who could (and does) start for just about any team. He didn't live up to a #5 pick status but it's not his fault. Where the jackals of the NFL draft a dude is completely separate from how you play. You play your best. The Packers drafted him too high.</p></blockquote><p></p>
