Why would drafting a Defensive End change any bitching about a Defensive Tackle?

You're the one that said DT, which is 4 - 3, not me. Keep that min mind. 🙂

I think he's explosive and I think he'll get after the QB. Hopefully he can stuff the run too, because that's the main thing with which we've been struggling.

I don't know anything about this guy but just by the looks of him he looks like he can do what Cullen Jenkins did for us in that Super Bowl run.

I'm happy with this pick.
I'm happy Ted didn't trade out of the 1st round.

Now I'm hoping for a badass center or OLB.

With the 3-4 you can actually have DE, DT, NT. It is more about where they lineup. NT would be head up on C or C/G gaps. DT would be from shading inside shoulder to outside shoulder of Guards. DE would be G/T gaps to head up on Tackles.

Wtf are they bitching for? Sympathy?

I actually understand what nerd is trying to say. A lot of people on here complain about not having the correct personnel for a 3-4 defense. Saying that we don't have a prototypical DE for a 3-4. But now the Packers just drafted one, so he's saying that nobody can complain about it anymore.
