WR... I might have been the only guy on this site hammering the fact that Davante Adams was nothing special and a run of the mill WC. I was actually wrong...he's much worse than that. Ty Montgomery was and is a much much better prospect going forward. Davante might be a one contract player in the NFL. WE NEED SPEED. Cobb was horrific this season. Davante sucks, James is done. 88 cent, Abby and Janis are 3 to build around and we can only hope Jordy picks up where he left off. Draft someone who can fly.

TE... Richard Rodgers was a wasted 3rd round pick. My grandma's shadow could tackle him in the open field. No athleticism at all. How we played a season with him as our top TE is baffling. He's awful. Get someone who can run and break one tackle a season.

LB... Our middle is still soft without Clay projecting in there.

OL... My goodness this group was so overrated this season. Nice game by them in AZ but for the seaosn they were brutal.

P... Masthay really screwed us today and he was poor for most of the season.

RB (3rd down back)... This team has needed a legit 3rd down back for years. Someone with speed who can catch it. How much that would diversify this offense. Why we don't ever look to do that is curious.

You go BPA with the draft. If we didn't have the injuries we had we would've been better than we were.

Davante Adams and Cobb disappointed, but all Adams had to do was catch the ball. He didn't. He got hurt twice. Next year, we get those two back along with Jordy Nelson and Ty Montgomery. Both Janis and Abbrederis proved they belong in the league.

At linebacker, Jake Ryan just needs to lift more weights. He's not super fast, but he's already a better tackler than A.J. Hawk and Nick Barnett ever were. Sam Barrington will be back next season.

I'm in full agreement at TE. Richard Rodgers isn't as terrible as you said he is as he has the best hands on the team. However, with his skill blocking he should be the second TE. We need to draft someone like O.J. Howard out of Alabama or sign a Coby Fleener or something.

He's a nice bit player. Actually, he'd be a great fit as our 3rd down RB. He played RB, QB, WR in college...he is a jack of all trades. Use him properly.

Honestly, I don't want Adams back. The most hyped player by the org in as long as I've been a fan. The things said about him on this very site were mind boggling. If you actually watched him play last year he had nothing special to him...same for Rodgers...NOTHING. I would hope as fans we would drop the idea that because they were drafted by the Packers that must mean they're good. It doesn't.

Ryan looks like another AJ Hawk but at least he wasn't a wasted 5th overall. A decent player for a 4th rounder. I think we need a bit more than decent there. Of course, you're not going to have a 53 with all pro bowlers.

Ted had a nice draft last time out. He needs to do it again because he ain't going to do anything else. Peppers will be gone. What are we doing at OLB/DE? Where's the pressure going to come from next year? Jayrone Elliot seems to get the Janis/Abby treatment. I don't understand...guy makes plays.

Oh, and the most important thing...I truly want a new DC and would love a new GM and HC combo but none of those things are going to happen unless someone decides to retire.

Why would a guy who opined that GB could go undefeated if they could beat Denver just before Denver game and then hoped GB would get blown out by Washington come to a Packer Board to discuss upgrades for next year?

Is this not treason!

BTW, I didn't say that on this board before the Denver game. I thought we were TERRIBLE long before we lost to Denver.

The treason is you saying I said that before the Denver game...I'm a man of my word. I said I wouldn't post until the season was over and I didn't make a single post all season even though you're claiming I did.

1. ILB - Clay is an OLB. He had made it clear he prefers being an OLB. Joe Thomas sucks when dropping into coverage. Fix this position, for once and for all, Ted.

2. TE - I'll take a player halfway between Richard Rodgers and Jermichael Finley. We need someone who can exploit the middle of the field more. Oh, and break tackles (even once in a blue moon would be an improvement over Rodgers).

3. Tackle - I just don't want to be screwed if Bakhtiari or Bulaga go down. Maybe they have something with Tretter, but an actual T in the draft would be appreciated.

4. Punter - Enough of the struggles at punter. Bring in competition, let the best punter win. Surely we can figure something out with holding for Crosby, even with a new punter.

It would be great if every one of the guys who left it all on the field tonight would be back next year,

Because of free agency and the salary cap that is just not possible.

The only upgrades needed right now are guys getting healthy, but they all won't. Be back because other teams will snatch those that are heading to FA up in a heartbeat.

I'm gonna leave it at that.

The sun will come up tomorrow, try and enjoy the day.
The draft is only 100 days away!
Can't wait to see what Ted has planned!
