This is far too premature, but people are already talking about the draft. Here's a look at the holes the Green Bay Packers need to address and some prospects we like to do so.

It's never too early. I was expecting a worthwhile article, though. Instead, it listed 4 position groups, and completely IGNORED the 3 biggest problem areas: O-Line, D-Line, and OLB.

Yeah yeah, I know we get Bulaga back, and there's still a chance I suppose that Sherrod plays like a #1. And once we get rid of the big fatties, maybe what's left could be decent in the D-Line. And maybe Perry will stay healthy and be that bookend we need.

We don't need to draft a QB in the upper half; We probably can get by very well with the TEs we have; And yes we need a Safety, but an athletic cover safety, not some oversize hard hitter who can't cover.

I'd like to see a D-Lineman with proven toughness - not just bulk - taken first, an athletic OLB taken second, a cover Safety taken third. The article mentions Chris Borland. I wonder where he will go in the draft. If we could get him in the 5th, I'd really like to see him play for the Packers.

Despite all the complaining by me about Thompson and by others about Capers, I expect both to stay right where they are. The article assumes Ted Thompson won't sign any free agents. With all the losses (good riddance to most) this off-season, don't be too sure.
