I picked Suggs.

Well the reason I picked him is because we've got Jenkins and Kampman as our DE's. I'd like to draft Orapko instead.

We have HAWK BARNETT BISHOP POPINGA CHILLAR SUGGS will have the best LB core in the NFL. 3-4 defense LB's are as important as the D-line is in the 4-3.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

I like Farrior. There's plenty of tweeners in the draft that we can add to help the pass rush. Plus, one of Kampman, Thompson, Hunter, or Poppinga should emerge as a solid 34 OLB. What we lack in ILBs who might be able to excel in this scheme, so I'd like to see Farrior brought on board, if a guy like Barnett can be moved.

Basically, the more ex-Steelers and ex-Ravens we sign, the happier I become.

I will vote for Peppers because Ray Lewis isnt on the list and we won't touch Farrior or Suggs they will both be signed to long term deals.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

If this list is the choices I am going to go with Scott. Peppers, Hayneswoth are going to cost to much. Even though they are good. I think the pack needs to spend some money to get players in.

With increasing the number of LBers that is going to be needed.

I personally would like to go with Gross over all of these, and concentrate and draft the D heavily.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I''ll go with Julius Peppers because I think he's as close to a Reggie White like signing Ted Thompson could make.

Terrell Suggs or Albert Haynesworth would have me just as excited though.

I'm going with Suggs, the guy has never failed to impress me when I have seen him play.
Like someone else alluded to is the fact that the LBs take on a greater importance in a 3-4.

How about Rocky Bernard for NT? Then with the drafting of Everette Brown/Brian Orakpo, developing youngster Jeremy Thompson, plus Hawk, Barnett, Bishop, Poppinga, Chillar... we could have a nice LB squad.

I voted for suggs too and I would like GB to draft orapko also. Would make 2 beefy LBs.

Orapko could function is LB/DE if need be

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (3h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (11h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (11h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (12h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (12h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (13h) : Who? What?

beast (21h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
