Packers just paid a guy 110 mil., not to run or hand off, but to throw the ball!!!!!

:)

I actually like the pick, let's see where Ted goes from here.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Well I ain't a football genius but so far we drafted the two types of players I wanted: The hybrid DE with lateral agility and the bruiser back with great vision and reliable hands out of the backfield. We still have issues on the O-line and at Nose, but this is a start...

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

I'm just worried about what I seen. He runs through big holes, something the Packers I don't think can offer.

He does seem to have good vision though. It'll be exciting. Many experts are saying this was a great pick.

Added his bio to the original post.

Can you imagine that? A dude with vision, who doesn't always run into the back of his Oline? Who can actually ESCAPE from traffic?

Just awesome.

And he will have to be able to escape traffic because he will see a lot of it.

Love this pick! Hell, I wanted him in the first...

Teddy knew what he was doing when he traded down. He knew either Lacy or Ball would be there at 61. My guess is that we had both of them graded out about the same.

Eddie Lacy ... bad selection. He had HUGE holes with Alabama. He won't have that in Green Bay. I'd rather have seen a Safety selected. Someone who could contribute to the team.

"Yet at his pre-draft workout April 11, Lacy looked like those fatigued linebackers running on empty. At one point, the 5-foot-11, 231-pound back needed to step outside the Hank Crisp Indoor Facility to catch his breath. The workout raised immediate red flags. This was, essentially, Lacy's job interview. And he looked tired, out of shape."

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