I got this mischievous feeling that a good portion of fans are going to be pissed off at the first selection of the Packers.

There might not even be one in the draft, and we probably have better guys on the team now than what we could draft. If we can't move up - then I think our pick at 28 just might be an offensive player - causing much confusion. But you don't take an inferior talent for need, at least the Packers don't.

But if the four concussions talk is true, then I'm off the bandwagon until the third round (or maybe off the board entirely).

And my pick for #28 (again, preferably after a trade down): Mychal Kendricks, followed by Ronnell Lewis with the late 2nd pick.

The second round is the round for linebackers this year.

Me too Wade. I've been trying to stay real quiet on him, don't really know why, but I really was hoping we got the kid. Now, I'm unsure. What I liked about him is he seems the closest thing to JJ Watt in this draft - and what a pick he turned out to be for HOU. Who knows. I can't recall anyone counting college level concussions prior to draft day on any player, and I have followed my share of drafts going back to the early 90s and beyond. Is that smoke?

With the lawsuit with over 1,000 players, why is it a shock that concussions for college players are being thought of publicly when making a draft selection? It makes sense to me. If the head isn't right, nothing else will work.
