Gents, we are a week away. I do think something big will break for us. I'll predict either Finley or Jones gets traded, or both by Wednesday or Thursday. I could see all of these teams in play for a deal like that:

6. STL
7. JAX
8. MIA
9. CAR
10. BUF
11. KC
12. SEA

It would certainly have to be a special deal (player or players and multiple picks) to get up there, but not impossible. I would love love love for us to add TWO top-of-the-food chain pass rushers day one (if they deem said players they would project and target worthy). All of those teams have multiple receiver needs. Oh man!

I think you're just being crazy. 🙂

I bring him up for a few of reasons.

1. He's under contract on a relatively friendly deal for two years.
2. The vertical threat TE has turned into a rather sexy commodity in the past two years.
3. There are very few that fit that commodity profile in this draft.

We won a SB without him. We have enough weapons.

2. he's a vertical threat that opens up coverages for the other WR, which, btw the Packers may lose Greg Jennings to free agency
3. no player in this draft merits such a risk.

Jermichael Finley will not be traded before or during this draft. I do see where you think it's possible, since the Packers have several other TE's. If Andrew Quarless had developed more and was healthy, you may be on to something ... but sorry bud, you're not.

What other scenarios do ya got? 🙂

I think the Packers will make a trade, but it will be out of the 1st round.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I think instead of trading our players for a shot at a pass rusher, we should send our second rounder to Miami for Cameron Wake. He's pissed they won't give him a new contract. Last time we played the Fish, Wake turned our Bulaga whale into a flounder.

Do we really need to revisit the ways he is used in the offense and the matchup problems it creates for opposing defenses? That's SOOOO 2011.

I'll eat his drops -- which aren't unique, but rather unfortunately endemic of Green Bay skill position players -- if it means we get all the other bonuses. Yeah, his numbers aren't through the roof, but it we are also a buhjillion deep at receiving options. Finley is a stud.
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : *winning MVP
Mucky Tundra (6h) : 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 (12h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (12h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (12h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (12h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (12h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (21h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (21h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (22h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (23h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (23h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (23h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 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 (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
