Yeah key words there are "down the road"....I want to make it to the superbowl this coming year, I don't want to have to wait until down the road. I think with the 9 spot we could get an immediate impact player. Hopefully a very successful tweener.

Reaching for a need usually doesn't end up being successful. If the top group of LTs is gone and Orakpo isn't there, then Jenkins becomes the best player on the board. He may not contribute from day one, but he'd be the most likely to become a Pro Bowl caliber player, and that's what you should try to acquire with a top 10 pick.

I would not understand us going after Jenkins. I'm expecting Maybin or Orakpo.

"toronto_cheesehead" wrote:

I doubt Maybin even goes in the first round. Some of the safeties in the draft look stronger than him.

Jenkins could be the pick because Harris and Woodson are getting older, and the team could use a corner to fill their shoes when they retire. It might not be a sexy pick now, but down the road we could be better off for it.

With that said, I'd rather see a left tackle taken at 9.

Maybin is a DE, and so is Orakpo. Whomever performs better in the combine and whomever is left in the draft is who the Packers should go for.

Tramon Williams is more than adequate to fill in for Harris, and I think we will trade Harris this season because Tramon is ready. Lee and Blackmon should also improve on their seasons. Blackmon had some problems in coverage but I believe he has the athletic ability to improve.

I know what position Maybin plays. I was simply commenting on how small he is. I wouldn't touch him at 9 because he'll probably get manhandled by NFL OTs. Orakpo and Brown are the tweeners worth taking that high IMO. If neither is there, trade down or take the best player at another position.

Maybe it was just me, but you made it sound like you were comparing him to safties as if he were a safety.

No. That is all.

Okay, that's not all.

We'll get a Dlineman, an Olineman, or a LB in round 1.

beast (41m) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2h) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (3h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (3h) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (4h) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (4h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (12h) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (12h) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (20h) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (22h) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor

Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
