This article hurts... and while it's not fair to go back and cherry pick, the ones that were one pick after (and fans clearly thought the pick after was the better player before the draft) or exact same position seriously hurt.

Kevin King/T.J. Watt

Jordan Love/Tee Higgins
Jordan Love/Jalen Hurts

Darnell Savage/A.J. Brown

Josh Myers/Creed Humphrey (one pick after)

Jace Sternberger/Terry McLaurin (one pick after)

Amari Rodgers/Amon-Ra St. Brown

Josiah Deguara/Alex Highsmith

For me, just two that are ouch are Brown and McLaurin. Creed is close but I think my dislike of Myers could be clouding my judgment.

Higgins is over rated.
Hurts wouldn't produce better than Love.

My two picks are selected because I think they'd have success with Packers. Some are product of situation and scheme.

If course I'd like Watt, but at the time, I understood the goal. Can't say I agreed with it, but I understood it. And it's not like anyone knew Watt would be who he turned out to be.

My only logic has been Gute/Packers liked Big 10 over Pac 12.

The ones that hurt me the most are Watt (which I was wrong on), and the two that were picked one pick after our pick, as I was literally yelling for the correct guy that got picked for the pick after ours.

Packers needed a Center, Creed was the highly hyped one, and it was obvious when he fell that far, and Packers picked the right position, but wrong player.

The Packers needed TEs for LaFleaur's system, but McLaurin should of never fell that far in the first place, I thought it was obvious to go with the draft steal over the need there.

Also, Sternberger was basically a receiver in college, so it wasn't like he was actually a TE, so since both were receivers, McLaurin seemed obvious to me.

It's hard for me to stand on a soap box for Creed because I haven't watched him.

I'm adding Amon-Ra St. Brown to my hurt list.

Mucky Tundra (30m) : *winning MVP
Mucky Tundra (1h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (7h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (7h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (7h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (7h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (7h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (7h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (16h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (16h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (17h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (18h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (18h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (18h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (19h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (19h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (19h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (19h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (19h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (19h) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (19h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (19h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (19h) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (19h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (19h) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (19h) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (20h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (20h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (20h) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (20h) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (20h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Philly DL has come to play
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night
