Ron Wolf, the Green Bay Packers new GM has just traded ONE of TWO first round picks for a gunslinger who's known to party hardy, is overweight and has only thrown five passes in the NFL. One of which was a TD for the other team, the other two hit the turf.
Recap of his stats...
Four attempts
Sacked once
Two interceptions
Two incompletions
for a first round draft pick ...
Brett failed his physical and the doctors said he'd play 5-7 years because of a hip problem that Bo Jackson had end his career.
I've always been one willing to give someone a chance, but I'd have been hesitatant on this one. I really wanted the Packers to get Desmond Howard. I really liked him for some reason.
I remember playing catch with my dad. After juking the counter, putting a spin move on the fridge an high stepping down the hallway to the end zone (my room) I'd do the heisman pose...
At the time, I'd rather the Packers have traded their two 1st's to acquire Desmond Howard.
I've always heard and believe that you give a guy 2 - 3 years to develop and in Bretts third year (second as a starter) he threw 24 INT's. The only thing I remember liking about him was he was always excited and always got the ball to my then favorite receiver, Sterling Sharpe.
I'd have been critical of the move, but on the fence and bias because I wanted Desmond Howard and felt we could have used those two 1st round picks to get him, even tho I knew he wasn't worth two lol, but hell he was my second favorite player next to Barry Sanders.
What would you have said about the Brett Favre trade?
We all know what happened, but I'm curious to how many will be honest and what you'd have said. We didn't have forums as abundant then as we do now so I can't search back on it, so answer honestly and let's see what we all say.
