Crazy, I wonder if that tidbit ever occurred to Craig Newsome ?

Gah, even as I posted that, I was telling myself that if there was one person on this board who would go out of his way to miss the OBVIOUS point I was making, it was you, but I wasn't going to be arsed with wasting time to find out if the Packers had ever, in their long history, through trade or some other mechanism, drafted 32nd.

A half's second thought would have been enough to realize what I was saying.

I still like Clint Sintim on the Giants as a possible 3-4 OLB. I know he has struggled as a 4-3 but I would like to see GB make a trade for him. The Giants need a 4-3 LB and we have an extra one and we need a 3-4 and they have an extra... it's perfect 🙂.

Obviously I have no idea how good the guy might be as an OLB especially after tearing an ACL but he has elite physical tools and had more sacks than any LB in the country in his final year of college. Not that I expect something like that to happen but it's more of a wish list type deal. I wouldn't be ok with trading anything crazy for him but a player + later pick or a 3rd or 4th rounder would be fine with me.

Between the three positions, OLB, OL and CB, which has more depth in this draft? I think if there's more OL than say CB, we'll take a CB higher because of the depth at OL.

No, no, no. Depth at OL in draft means an opportunity to draft more OL.

Round 1: OL
Round 2: OL
Round 3: OL
Round 4: OL
Other rounds: Other positions.

I want GB to have an OL where other teams salivate over our backups, not one where we can't get rid of starters of Colledge quality.

That is the number one requirement if we want Rodgers to last long enough for zombieslayer to realize his "most Super Bowl wins" dream.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

He'll take BPA.

However, that will be no fun to say "BPA" and the thread just ends.

Thus, we are discussing needs.

So if Blaine Gabbert falls to us, we draft him?

No team ever drafts true BPA. Teams vary between reaching for the highest need, and picking BPA from a wider set of needs. Thompson does the latter.

ARod was clearly BPA. Raji too. As were others who fell to GB over the years.

I think it is safe to say that Aaron who was projected by some to be the overall #1 was the BPA.
Raji too had slid some and was a pretty good value pick.

Most teams ranks players in tiers. If players all fall in the same tier, you pick the player of need.

I believe Ted the Packers had Crabtree ranked similar to Raji, but Raji filled a need, and was Pickett insurance.

Bulaga was a need with Clifton and Taucher getting older.

Neal was insurance for Jolly and Jenkins.

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (10h) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (15h) : Merry Christmas!
beast (23h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
