[QUOTE="DoddPower, post: 444873, member: 809"] Obviously they got the guy they wanted as they picked Perry over Upshaw. I think Upshaw will be solid, but he is absolutely inferior athletically to Perry, especially when it comes to speed. That doesn't mean he won't be the better pro, but I like the idea of having the superior athlete. Also, it will be hard to compare the two because the Baltimore defense is loaded already. The Ravens defense is obviously way better than the Packers and for that reason I would except Upshaw to stand out more, especially at first. I believe Perry has a much higher ceiling but also a lower floor. With proper coaching, Perry could become an absolute beast, but could also bust. It's clear that the Packer's valued his athleticism and thought that the coaches can make him a better player than Upshaw. As a general manager, one HAS to think that about his coaches because if they don't, then they should be hiring new coaches. Ted provided a superior athlete and it is now up to the coaches to get the most out of him. I've mentioned elsewhere that I think Perry will eventually become the primary pass rusher for the Packer's. This will free up CM3 to be more of a "rover" to utilize his abilities in both coverage and pass rushing. Perry doesn't and may not ever have the ability to move in space like CM3 does, but that's OK. As long as he develops his pass rush, it will be a nightmare for teams to figure out what CM3 is going to do. [/QUOTE]
