I think it goes like this: 1. Oher, 2. Jackson, 3. Raji, 4. Smith

I hate the Andre.

To be fair, I don't think you're going to find a guy where all the writers will say nothing but glowing stuff - all this scrutiny that comes down on these kids, there's always a negative, and the "what will you get for the money" argument is getting old at this point. There isn't currently a rookie pay scale, so you're either going to pay the going rate and move on or you trade back year after year hoping to find a diamond in the rough that you can get on the cheap.

Personally, I'd be fine with Oher @ the 9 spot. He sure seems like he could step in a RT at the worst, and he's definitely durable.

Coming out of college, he had the best honors of any OT in this draft. It's workouts that have hampered his status as a top pick. I think he is a great pick at 9.

As long as it's not Andre Smith that we pick #9, I'll be happy.

This mock has us taking jackson over oher and raji - just dont know if hes worth it above those 2. Raji looks to be a solid NT and Oher potential solid OT.

I'm just curious if Teddy would try and give us all a heart-a-stroke and try trading up with KC maybe sending our 1st and one of our 3rds for #3 overall and snag Curry?

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

God I hope not. I don't understand the infatuation with Curry, and it's most definitely not a position of need for us.

Why? Because he left the combine? Just to let you know, many people had him ranked as the #1 overall tackle in the draft until that. He's a great run AND pass blocker....now why wouldn't you love to have that on your team?

I would love to draft Andre Smith at 9 this year. Then go w/ Larry English or Ron Brace in the 2nd.

If we took Brace, we could try and trade back up into round 2 and take English or Sintim (or vis versa, trading up to get Brace after selecting English or Sintim).

Take a lot more than that.

As far as Jackson's value. I think he's no more a reach than Michael Oher whom some seem to feel GB is a good fit for. I'd probably prefer Orakpo or Raji, but Jackson is certainly a good pick too.

I like Tyson Jackson or BJ Raji as the #9 pick...either would make me happy. If either is not there, I think we go OT at the spot if Smith or Oher are there.

Two guys I love at 41 are Clint Simtin or Larry English....both are beasts whose numbers at the combine don't necessarily make you go WOW....but guys who produce damn near every donw they are on the field. Personally, while athletes are nice, highly productive FOOTBALL PLAYERS are where its at, and these two fit the bill.

This recent mock draft has Tyson going #3 to Kansas City. That seems a bit high to me and I would be disappointed if this happens.

The more I think about this draft, the more I'm starting to hope we get Raji, Tyson Jackson, MAYBE an offensive tackle, or trade down.

I think Raji is going to be good at worst, and Tyson Jackson seems like a super safe pick. Hard to go wrong with those.

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

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
