Oh we could mention players like Williamson and Underwood as well.. or the draft card debacle.. two years in a row.. or well I am sure with some thought I could add more.

The Vikings have had there draft day blunders.. I think I shall ponder that thought on the way home.. :evil grin:

While we're at it 93z, I got to admit, the Green Bay Packers usually only draft what is fondly known by you guys as "Packer People". You know, high moral character, Church goin', all around nice guys.

The year is 1974 and in the late rounds of the NFL draft the Green Bay Packers draft a WR out of Portland State.............one Randall Woodfield. :shock:

And I will raise you Onterrio "The Whizzinator " Smith.. the steal of the 2003 draft. ;)

On Woodfield.. at least the Packers had the intelligence to cut him... albeit it took "several" indecent exposure incidents.

Dang guys, the Herschel Walker fiasco. That hurts....that really hurts.

By the way if any of you know the whereabouts of one Mike Lynn, master-mind behind the Walker debacle, let me know.
I would still like to de-nut him, hang him, boil him in oil, then have him drawn and quartered.

Deion Sanders coined it as the Herschel Walker shibacle. You know, when shit and debacle collide.

This is a placeholder

I will call your raise, and raise you one Jamal Reynolds............pride of the Packers 2001 1st round (10th overall) draft pick! :thumbright:
(taken before Todd Heap, Drew Brees, Reggie Wayne )

Out of Florida State University, Jamal Reynolds had proclaimed himself "the greatest defensive end the world has ever seen, period." In his senior year, Reynolds won the Lombardi Award and was a finalist for the College Defensive Player of the Year Award. He recorded 12 sacks and 58 tackles during that season.

The Packers were so enamored of him, they traded their first round pick (#17) and QB Matt Hasselbeck to the Seattle Seahawks for the chance to take Reynolds. Jamal Reynolds was Ron Wolf's last first-round draft pick with the Packers, leaving a nasty blemish on Wolf's stellar reputation as the Packers' GM.

After only 3 seasons with the Packers and recording only 14 tackles , Green Bay attempted to trade Reynolds to the Indianapolis Colts, but he failed the physical and the Packers released him 10 days later. The following season, Cleveland picked him up, but he was cut before the season started.

That's exactly what we tried to do, but you can't force a player to stay on your PS. The Bills offered him a roster spot and playing time, obviously he took it.

I kick it again with the 2005 draft for the Vikings.. set with 2 first round picks they select... Williamson and James.. both gave the Vikes 2 career starts... :lol:

Then throw in the waste at 3rd and 4th picks.. it has the makeup of one of the worst draft classes ever.


Round	Pick	Name        	Pos           	Starts	CG
1	7	Troy Williamson  WR   	        1       	49
1	18	Erasmus James 	DE             	1       	28
2	49	Marcus Johnson 	G              	1       	53
3	80	Dustin Fox   	DB                    0        	12
4	112	Ciatrick Fason 	RB                    0       	18

I mean Williamson couldn't a damn thing... leading some to believe he was blind. But the boy sure could run... was Al running your 05' draft? ;)

But you're missing the funny part, they draft James and Williamson leaving us Aaron Rodgers. I can see why, having the great Dante Culpepper and all!

packerfanoutwest (4h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (12h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
