I don't mind any of the guys they picked, I simply the question the valiue, i.e. did they optimize the pick slots? Could they have traded up/back and gotten guys later. For example, nothing against the Cincinnati kid, but could we have hopped ahead of the Bears and gotten the Notre Dame Tight End? I think the BC running back would have been there in the 3rd round.

As I have harped upon in the past, and others have said over the last 2 days, we don't have the horses in the trenches to compete with the elite teams, esp SF and, on a comparative basis, that certainly didn't get any better.

Same goes for a plodding power runner at the end of the 2nd round. Especially if you're in the market for an undersized Linbacker who can move across the field with Logan Wilson, Zack Baun and Willie Gay Jr. both still on the board and eventually settle for UDFA-prospect Kamal Martin in the 5th round.

Day 2 and the first part of day 3 were an absolute disaster.

This. I don’t have anything against the guys we got. But I can’t shake the feeling that we’re missing out, or that we reached a lot for our selections.

It's really incredible how frenzied some people get over a process they have absolutely zero understanding or comprehension to. Why can't we just be excited for the guys we got instead of petulant whine bags? (That's mainly to what I read on Twitter, not here).

We have people here thinking we missed out, or reached or drafted wrong and such and such yet they didn't scout a single damn player. That means you're being bamboozled by all the idiotic mock drafts you consumed over the last few months. Hook. Line. STINKER!

I wish the NFL wasn't such a 24/7/365 GIVE ME SOMETHING NEW deal. All it does it saturate the product and create stupid bullshit "hot takes" that serve no one.

NOW GET OF MY DAMN LAWN!! 😀😀

I'm good with who we got.
Let's move on and see how it all works out.
None of us know anything until we see them on the field.

I don't know much about U of Cincy but I heard their offense is similar to what MLF wants to use in GB. That puts Deguaraa little bit a head on the rookie learning curve.

Could be the steal of the round.
Might take a year, but from all I heard he will be worth the pick.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line
Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
