After watching as much footage as I could find around the net and reading as much as I could find on all the picks minus Wynn and Underwood.. as I haven't spent the time yet.. but it is coming...
My favorite to this point is T.J. Lang... anti my natural Linebacker/defensive man love tendencies..
I am impressed with the kids footwork, tenacity and technique.. seriously the best Offensive Lineman we have drafted in the Ted era, IMO. I really believe this kid will come out and impress us Packer faithful.

I'm totally with you... heck maybe ahead of you since I have looked for Wynn and Underwood footage (honestly didn't find much... the under thing I got of Wynn was from NFL.com of when he was at the combine... and Underwood had even less... just him running the 40... you can't get nothing from the Underwood type other than he has a every nice frame to work with... pretty long arm and wide shoulder where he could pack on some weight... I'm still not sure if their gonna play him at CB or S... Packers.com say CB... I think he could be great with bump and run with his long arms... but I'm not sure it he wouldn't fit better at S from what I've been reading of him.)
But I agree My favorite to this point is T.J. Lang...
Like you said his footwork, tenacity and technique.. are all every good and I could see him starter at LG the first game
if and this is only if they move Colledge to OT where I think he would be a better fit anyways...
I'm not sure how much speed Lang can deal with so I'm not sure about him at RT and I'm thinking no to him at LT. Also the kid can play C... I don't think he's going to have a chance to start at C though because I think Mike McCarthy wants to make sure the C is smart and knows what their doing and completely knows the system.... But honest I would be fine with a starting OL of Clifton, Lang, Spitz, Sitton, Colledge....
As for stopping the musical chair thing... I like it but I don't as well... I like it in all cases BUT... if Clifton goes down with an injury who can play LT? I can only think of Colledge and MAYBE just maybe Barbre... but if Clifton goes down and Barbre can't get the job done and Mike McCarthy won't move Colledge over to LT I think the team is in trouble... because I don't think the others can fill LT at least not right now.
