GREEN BAY, Wis. — The last time the Green Bay Packers had four picks in the first 100 selections of the NFL draft, they came away with two quality starters and two players who never made an impact.

That was 2008, when they drafted receiver Jordy Nelson (No. 36 overall), quarterback Brian Brohm (No. 56), cornerback Pat Lee (No. 60) and tight end Jermichael Finley (No. 91).

General manager Ted Thompson will take a similar haul into this year's draft.

I like it... just draft a WR and TE and be done with it. 🙂

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I like the Mosley, Nix and Fiedorowicz selections, but hate the Brock Vereen pick. Hate it. I would be pissed. We really need a major score at one or two positions, without fail. S and ILB. In that order. Those are our greatest needs. How he picks Vereen for GB in R3 is a complete mystery. Zero value there.

We need two each Safetys and ILBs. Unless some absolutely shocking bargain comes along, we don't need a TE or WR that early, and we don't need a D-Lineman at any point in the draft.

He must be one of these late movers, that only the author heard about.

Mosley would be great at 21, after that ILB position gets pretty thin, Borland, Zumwalt and Skov are all rated as 3rd rnd picks.

So if Mosley is gone at 21, one of those 3 should be available when The Packers pick in 3rd rnd instead of wasting the pick on Vareen.

I'm hoping either Mosley or Pryor are there at 21, if Ted gets either of them, then the rest of the draft should start falling in place.

NOT LONG NOW!!!!!!
