I think the Packers ask more and get more out of their young players than about any other team. Especially when you consider that the Packers are a good team.

I could see this many young guys playing on a team rebuilding but the Pack does this year in year out.

Having said that the key is obviously to get Mathews, Woodson, Nelson, and Lang back and the team healthy for the playoffs. They are the money guys that come thru in the big games and have the experience the post season requires.

I'm liking the way it's looking. They have a little running game now, Mathews and Woodson combined are the Arods of the defense that makes that go, and, when Nelson gets back we may just have all the receivers on the field for the first time in forever.

This years crop of rookies has to be very pleasing, especially when you consider our #1 is out for the year. Even the UDA'a look good. Ted Thompson did an outstanding job. Hopefully he can repeat.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I love this Mike Daniels kid, and Jerel Worthy. Both have been playing really well, and are helping us to win football games. HUGE contributions, and I hope it continues all the way to another Lombardi Trophy in the case! That Daniels play was awesome!!!!! Just what we needed.

The most startling part of that play to me was how fast Daniels was running. He's got speed for a big dude, maybe if we lose another couple HBs we can just move him to HB.

I like players like Daniels. They'll always give you 110% and be good, solid players. They just will not be the upper echelon players. The Packers will get their money's worth out of him. Now Worthy, I hold to a little higher standard because he has first round talent but must lack the work ethic. But he is still a good player. Raji is the dlineman that disappoints me.

Dainels had made a couple stunt sacks and a couple fumble recoverys. Hope this undersized guy gets better.

Zero2Cool (12h) : I hope they take a Punter at 9th overall. Be bold!

Mucky Tundra (13h) : I may end up eating those words but I think they need a lot more talent then their 4 picks can provide

Mucky Tundra (13h) : I really hope they stand pat and Draft a WR

Mucky Tundra (13h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (13h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend Penei Soul 4yrs - 112mil

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (24-Apr) : DT Byron Murphy II, Texas... whom some believe is the next Aaron Donald (or the closest thing to Donald)

Martha Careful (23-Apr) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (23-Apr) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

beast (22-Apr) : Someday we'll have a draft betting scandal

beast (21-Apr) : Sometimes looking extremely amazing, sometimes looking extremely lost

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
