It matters to me that we DO talk about players. After all, this is a discussion board. Talk about prospects! I haven't a clue about anyone. I'd be Al Davis lol. Who's fastest?!? Haha

I'm not an expert either, however GB is screaming for an elite CB. The signing of House, is to me, like resigning a veteran as a reward for past performance. IMO, that past performance did not merit a contract. I do hope that he proves me wrong.

Were I TT, I would trade a 1st and a 5th in the 2017 Draft and a 6th in the 2018 Draft to move up in the 2017 Draft. Then with a top 5 pick, I would choose:

Marshon Lattimore - CB - Ohio State - 6 feet tall @ 193 pounds.

However Ted Thompson appears to have no thoughtfulness nor imagination and will probably take a goalie from the Northern Michigan Wildcats hockey team that is 6 feet tall 178 pounds with the 29th pick in the draft because he his a quick twitch guy that has a nice change of direction and nice hips and try to turn him into a cornerback.

If you are going to look at NCAA players why not look at the best?

Myles Garrett DE Texas A&M Jr 6-4 272
Solomon Thomas DE Stanford So 6-3 273

They will most likely be long gone by 29.

I'll post my board in maybe 2-3 weeks.

I was also gonna do a rundown of the roster, position by position and assess needs.

To me, the needs are: OLB, CB, RB, G.

Only the top two are really glaring. I'd rather get two good OLBs and a CB than two CBs and an OLB.

Trade our 1st and 3rd this year plus our 1st next year to move up to #4 and draft Fournette. Draft best CB available in the 2nd. Sign Zach Brown.

I'm not sure about exact players. I see so much talk about CB, but you could put Woodson in his prime and Revis in his prime, yet if you can't get pressure on the QB, it wouldn't matter. I want to see another interior pass rusher to pair with Daniels. Doing so makes it easier for Clay and Perry on the edge and also makes the secondary better by default if they don't have to cover more than 3 seconds.

Caleb Brantley, Makik McDowell, Taco Charlton, Soloman Thomas

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

TJ Watt hype should be tempered a bit. He's only played defense for a season an half and didn't really come on strong until a portion way through last season. Just because he's a "Watt", doesn't mean he's going to be a wrecking ball like his brother.

3rd round talent!!

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.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

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

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
