The logic is easy. They're Vikings and Jets fans.... (also maybe USC and Georgia fans from looking at the draft)

Also they don't have a clue IMO.

Hakeem Nicks over both Jeremy Maclin and Michael Crabtree? No way IMO...

It's pretty obvious they've deliberately made their mock controversial in order to generate traffic to their site.

Mikey do something like that? You would think he was a lawyer or something. :lol:

I think it is a subtle jab at the management of the Packers, since last year they took a WR with their first pick, even at a position of strength.

The only WR we would think about taking at #9 would be Crabtree if he is there.. but even then, I think we would take away the pick and move down.

I know most people don't agree with me on this but I like Jeremy Maclin more than Michael Crabtree.

Yes Crabtree is the better player right now but I don't see much potential or room for growth in him because he's gotten a lot it out already and he doesn't have that deep speed. I see him as a good #1 but not great for reason.

Maclin is a lot more raw but he has huge potential. I mean he's a more talented Steve Smith type talent in a 6-1, 200 pound body with room to add more muscle.

I just see a lot more upside in Maclin even though Crabtree is better right now but the draft is about the future not about right now.

all wide receivers ted thompson drafted in his years as the packers gm were projected way later than ted took them.

2008: jordy nelson (picked 2nd round, projected 4th round)
2007: james jones (picked 3rd round, projected 6th round)
2006: greg jennings (picked 2nd round, projected 3rd to 4th)
2005: terrence murphy (picked 2nd round, projected 4th(?))

i wouldn't be heavily surprised, if Ted Thompson takes a relative unknown wr late day one/early day 2. not with #9, though.

Beast, I think the Packers have proven that 1st round receivers are not a necessity, and in our system, a number 1 wideout isn't even wanted (my opinion).

I've always felt a top ten pick should be used on a dominent defensive lineman, left tackle, quarterback, or cover corner. Of course there are exceptions like a Sean Taylor at safety. Neither of the receivers you mention are top ten material.

Florio strives and thrives on controversy, and he caught RP's attention.
