Chavous' #1 best fit for Packers D? (plus, he likes a different ILB for us than has been mentioned)

“I’m resigned to ‘how does he fit into your division?’ because I truly believe this, when Green Bay goes to the draft,” Chavous said, “they’re not looking at all these guys we’re talking about. They might not even have Jimmie Ward on their board. They’re looking for the guys who fit their scheme. I would not be surprised in a Dontae Johnson. He might not be rated high for them but that might be a guy they’re targeting in the mid-rounds. He’s 6-2, 200, but he’s got 4.4 speed, he’s got a 38 ½-inch vertical and a 10-4 broad.

“So athletically — even though it didn’t always show up on the field consistently — this is a guy that can make some plays.”

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I've always liked Corey Chavous for the true student of the game that he is. This is indeed some interesting stuff.

Hahaha, empirically we could almost make the case they're looking for guys who DON'T fit their scheme. I mean really. How many tweeners do they have now? Datone Jones? Nick Perry? Mike Neal? Daniels? The list goes on.

At first I was wondering why an ex-Viking was taking such an interest in the Packers draft; then I thought he must just be scouting the future cast-offs the Vikings will sign for an overinflated contract in 5 years.

Interesting read, mind you.

[grin1]

I can't remember who we took that year, though. Rich Campbell or Bruce Clark or Tony Mandarich probably. [duh]
