I read on other forums that the Pack should draft James to play opposite KGB.
I saw him a couple of times this season and I wasn't impressed. I think we can do better. If he was around in later rounds maybe we could take a fly on him.

Later rounds? The guy is gonna be a top ten pick. I guess you'll get your wish because there's no way in hell we'd be able to get him. But I don't understand how you're not impressed. He was unblockable.

I wasn't really able to watch this guy as much I'd wished... and if he's THAT good, then the Packers will not even see his dust trail as he leaves for wherever...

Being realistic with who on the list is still around.. by the time #24 makes their pick... is the more rational of conversations.

I've posted a comment on what might happen with the Mike Wahle issue and gaining advantage in the Draft... whether they pick up Erasmus.. or go for Shazor... could be a good discussion for days... No one knows what the strategy board looks like in Thompson's Office at this point.

Remember, they're still waiting til the Combine, down here in Indy next week, ...to see what will happen with Darren Sharper.

The back injury question is what will determine his real worth - and whether or not he was able to prove himself against all comers.. Has he tested against any really large players?

I think he is a tad undersized, I really want D. Johnson but I doubt we can move up high enough to get him.

Your right. He won't be an all-down DE because of his size. He proabaly will be a good sack specialist, but we already have one in KGB. Plus he really fell off towards the end of the season last year, and that was only 12 games.
