I like it, but I've heard that Aaron Williams projects as more of a safety, which we don't need. But he is very athletic and he does have great ball skills. So we'll just have to wait and see what Ted Thompson thinks.

Yes, as i said he's a bit of a tweener, but that makes him versatile/valuable. You can use him like Charles Woodson (of course he's not a Charles Woodson at the moment 😉 ) You can line him up man-to-man on the outside, put him in the slot, let him blitz .... Not a bad thing at all.

Oh okay it was community mock draft then.

Yeah, I meant the first two picks. In that situation, I would have gone Danny Watkins and Jarvis Jenkins.

Still, you get a plus one for the Acho pick. I wouldn't be shocked at all, if the Packers go in that direction in round two or maybe early round three if they move up. He's Packer People. :)

Danny Watkins scared me because of his age. He'll turn 27 in his first season in the NFL. Jarvis Jenkins was not on my board for #64. Besides Young I considered Acho, Iowas DE Christian Ballard and Dontay Moch out of Nevada. The last 2 went shortly after my pick, thank god Acho was still on his way down.

Acho was my personal favourite pick of the Draft.

Wow, it's impressive that 32 people actually did this. It is a lot different from a one-person mock draft (most of which are only one round) because you can see how a GM has to adapt to the situation as it unfolds. Sounds like a lot of fun. I have no idea if you picked the right guys, because I don't pay much attention to college football, but you made a good case for each one of them.

I am willing to throw my hat into the ring for a similar event on PackersHome.

If we could get 16 people together, each person could "adopt" one NFC team and one AFC team. Teams (with the exception of the "plum assignment," Green Bay) could be assigned on a first-come-first-served basis, with the Packers being awarded by lottery after everyone had picked their AFC team.

Perhaps we could even offer a prize to the person who selected the most correct picks for their team. 😃

Thanks for posting this. I think the Packers position and where the tiers stop hurts the Packers... because it seems like the tiers stop before the Packers picks for the most part this year... which would make trading up or back might be good ether way to get more value.

If a few more QBs sneak up into the first that might mean more guys the Packers are interested in fall and maybe trade up. If they don't it might make it very interesting for the teams looking for QBs to grab one with the later picks in the 1st. Meaning the Packers might get good value trading back.

i don't wanna be the party pooper on this, but we had tough timelines (3h fixed window in rounds 1-4 and 2h after the last pick in rounds 5-7) to get it done and it took overall almost 5 weeks. with the draft upcoming in not more than one week, we should move this to next year 😉

totally agree. the board with the top-tier guys was empty after wilkerson (#30). unfortunately no trades (neither up nor down) worked out.

Sounds fun. Too bad there's not enough time this year but count me in next year! Of course who says we can't do this after the draft? I'd still have fun.

beast (3h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Both LB Quay Walker and Rookie DB Micah Robinson have passed their physicals

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
