Hats off to Hawk.

That said, I like Barnett better. I don't think Nick gets the credit he deserves. But yes, Willits is better than Barnett. But then again, Willits is better than everyone, so that's not a dig on Barnett at all.

I bet you don't want Barnett being the guy taking on lead blocks. They may both be ILB now, but they are not the same type of player. 236 lbs vs 248. Which guy do you want doing the dirty work.

Given a little time, we may now have the best LBer corp for years to come. Barnett is just 28 and he is the old fart of the group (now that Kampy is gone)

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I have a lot of trouble believing Barnett still weighs 236. He looks WAY bigger this year to me, like 245ish.

He plays waaaaay bigger than his size indicates.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar (and numbers are just numbers).

-off topic- but this reminds me of the whole draft BS; where sudden players are 2-3 inches taller and 20-30 pounds heavier. I remember everette browns stats seemed to differ everytime I looked at em.

glad we didnt grab him ...

Summary: We have 3 Pro-Bowl-quality LBs. That's an awesome problem to have.

The only thing I care about is performance. Barnett consistently gets 100+ tackles a year, except last year when he missed 7 games. This year, he has 4 sacks to go along with his tackles.

I actually prefer Nick's tackling, but Hawk is better in coverage. You'd think only if you saw their sizes that it would be the other way around.

Not me, Hawk looks bigger easily to me. He is much thicker in the lower body.

If Jones improves for the future, nobody will want to play our LBers.

He looked like a freigth train on that interception. Same horrible speed, as well.

I like Barnett more than Hawk. I know, Hawk is doing the dirty work etc., but when you see those two guys on that same blitz or see both of them pursuit a back, it's usually Barnett who's doing the better job.

And his stats tell that, as well.

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

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.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

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

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now
