The Packers have a top 10 pick.

If number 8, 9, or 10 is there do you think what the Packers need is there or should Ted Thompson trade down and gather more picks to build for the future.

My question is, given that in all likelihood there will be a rookie salary cap in 2010, what team would want to trade up with the Packers in 2009, knowing they would have to pay a top-10 rookie a huge salary they probably wouldn't have to pay for an equivalent player in 2010?

How did you come to these draft positions? A quick glance through the standings and given the possibility of 7 total wins with "tie breakers" vs NO and Houston, I counted 12 teams that could conceivably finish with 7 or fewer wins. I didn't run all of the tie breakers, but if we drafted after all the other 7 win teams, that would put us at pick 13 - the absolute lowest position we can get.

We were slated to have the 10th pick in the draft going into today's games. JAX was slated to have the 7th pick. After our game, we may have moved to the 9th, 8th, or 7th pick, dependent upon the tie-breaker with the 49ers and the outcome of the Browns game. Obviously if we win both of our remaining games and everyone else loses, fall back in the order.

Rest assured, as of this writing we PRESENTLY hold the 10th pick, or better.
Jax now holds the 10th pick, or better, dependent upon THEIR tie breaker with others, and us . The 1st tie breaker in the draft is NOT head-to-head, but strength of schedule, so it IS complicated.

I asume he'll trade back, I'm just hoping he'll trade back for something like Round 1 - Pick 18, Round 3 - Pick 18 and not getting about 20 low draft picks.

We really need some quality over quantity now, we have enough projects on our team atm, imo.

What should the Packers do?

Stay put and take the best lineman on the board. Whether it's a DE, DT, OG, or OT.

My guess is probably not a guard at that point. The only player I'd trade down for is Tyson Jackson and maybe Michael Johnson.

Of course it depends on what happens in free agency, but then again nothing ever happens in free agency so my assumption is this first pick absolutely needs to be an impact player for this team to advance.

If McCoy from OU comes out, he certainly has a chance to go in the top 15. Greg Hardy of Mississippi is probably the best 4-3 DE in the draft.

You are fired. :thumbleft:

Trade back, hopefully to around 20-23rd pick. Dependent upon where we finish in the draft order, should be at LEAST a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. In a deep line draft. As you stand there in outrage at such a concept, contemplate the fact that there is a very, very high probability that the TWO best guards in the country and the BEST center in the country will ALL be on the board this year in SECOND round. We will have 3 second round picks in my scenario. The problem will be in finding a trade partner, of course there are many factors in that, not the least of which is the possibility/calculation that there might be a rookie salary cap coming in 2010. This factor WILL be considered come draft day, imo.

First things first.

We have to blow the last two games.

I can take it. Hell my other team is "The Raidaahs."

It will make it all that much more of a special and sweet draft party.

#10

I could care less about the Bears game, but for god sakes, don't lose to the lions.

I say go with a Defensive lineman, probably DE. That might not be what he's gonna do, but he should.

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
