After the Brian Brohm fiasco, I doubt he wastes another high pick on a QB. Maybe a late round guy to develop if they don't think Graham Harrell can every be a legit #2 QB.

That's not what I'm saying at all. He drafted Rodger to start. Not to back up and then trade later for a net gain. Even if Brohm panned out, it would have been really hard for Ted Thompson to trade him for a 2nd round pick. It's one thing to flip a 7th rounder for a 2nd or 3rd (think Flynn). You won't be able to do that with 2nd rounders.

Good point. I doubt very much that Ted will take a QB with a high pick, although obviously Ted will do whatever he damn well pleases. He's smarter than us.

Agreed. I'd love a big nasty guard or another solid tackle.

I am surprised at how many people used the concept of "need" in this thread. Where have you guys been for the last 6 years. Need? When has Ted Thompson drafted for need? He takes the best guy, whether or not he is on anybody else's board.

If Carimi were on the board at 32, Ted Thompson would probably take him. If Ted Thompson has him ranked highest.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, but I wondered if it's occurred to anyone that this will be the first time the Packers have ever picked 32nd in a draft. 😃

We have all seen Ted's drafts.
I'm saying don't be surprised if Ted drafts a QB in one of the rounds.

Mostly he takes the best player available, but need always comes into the picture. I don't think it's a coincidence that when the Packers switched to a 3-4 defense Ted took a nose tackle with his first pick, then traded up to get a pass-rushing OLB later in the first round. And of course if two or more players are virtually equal in terms of quality, need is the tie-breaker.

I would agree with you, however, that fans tend to overemphasize need. The hole-plugging approach is simple and concrete, just like signing veteran free agents, which makes it popular among fans and draft gurus alike.

Crazy, I wonder if that tidbit ever occurred to Craig Newsome ?

I don't think the Packers will take a QB in the 1st or 2nd round. I'm not that hot on any of the QB's I've read about, notice I said read, not watched. I haven't seen any of them play so I know nothing of what I talk about.

I'd like to see in the first three rounds we get an OL, OLB, and probably another OL.

In 4th or 5th round, maybe try to get a guy who's really shifty and fast for returns. Field position is very important and I'd be okay with throwing a pick for a return specialist.

He'll take BPA.

However, that will be no fun to say "BPA" and the thread just ends.

Thus, we are discussing needs.

packerfanoutwest (8h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (16h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
