[QUOTE="DarkHelmet, post: 831005, member: 9399"] My Michigan alum/Bears fan colleague: "I hope Gary does for your Packers what he did for us at Michigan: nothing." I don't like taking 'underachievers' at all. I really don't like taking an 'underachiever' at 12. My fears over drafting at 12 appear to have been realized: we didn't get an elite player. Elite raw ability -- maybe. Will he ever show it on the field? To be determined. This sort of outcome is why I really wanted to trade up into the top 10. I don't know whether they tried to do that and failed or simply didn't try. If nobody was willing to trade a top ten pick to the Packers at a reasonable price my next preference would have been to trade 12 and 30 for something like 15 or 16 and 20ish. Then take Sweat and Fant, or Savage if they were that high on him. So far I'm giving this a gentlemen's C-. If the light goes on for Gary it could turn out much better, obviously. [/QUOTE]
