Here-in lies the problem. If he doesn't trade is it because he didn't want to or because he couldn't find anyone to pay his price? As fans, we'll probably never know and any seemingly unworthy player picked will be labeled a reach for his entire career.

I was playing around on first-pick.com, wanting to see what it would take to get Leonard Williams.

Cost to trade up from #30 to #5 was:
4th #30
6th #30
7th #30
Next year's first rounder.

Not saying this trade would be available (my guess is the above wouldn't be near enough to trade that high). But if it was, would you make it.

FWIW, in the game I followed the pick by trading down from the Packers 2nd round pick #30 multiple times to get a total of one extra late third and three picks spread across the fourth round.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Is it just me, or do the Packers seem not to be worried about building a Defense to be FEARED ? I know that they are in a giant poker game and the winners get the best players. I just want the Packers to win .

With ideally the offense putting up 30+ in the first half and have the "average" defense there just to look for turnovers. I dont believe the Packers will ever be a truly balanced team while Aaron is hitting his prime.

Bend , but don't break is not a Defense , it is a surrender . For some teams , putting constant pressure on their QB is the only way to stop them . An ILB has to stop the run and cover against the pass . The Corner Back needs to be fast , smart , and be of sufficient height to to be of use against the taller faster receivers that many teams are recruiting . :magnifygl

I say wait to see who is dropping. If what he is looking for is still there later, why give up picks to move up? But if someone outstanding is dropping then it's worth it. It will all kind of depend on whether there is a run on a certain position and who that leaves out there.

If Shelton drops into the teens, I say go get him, but if they are thinking ILB there are a couple to be available when we draft.

Well the void at NT seems to be filled. Therefor the Packers would logically be looking at CB's and ILB's . Ted Thompson will be throwing out smoke screens and not promoting players that he likes . Therefor if Packers.com profiles a player , it is a Ted Thompson smoke screen .

Zero2Cool (23h) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.
Zero2Cool (23h) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!
Zero2Cool (23h) : You saw me Tweet???
beast (23h) : Supposedly Steelers will be trading WR George Pickens to the Cowboys for a 3rd and late round pick swap

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.
dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.
dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition
Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.
beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?
packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?
Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.
dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit
beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : February 5, 2002 (age 23) ok no. packers.com is wrong

Martha Careful (29-Apr) : ty bboystyle...fat fingers
bboystyle (29-Apr) : Tom*
Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown
beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls
beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.
beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot
beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.
Martha Careful (27-Apr) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat
Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point
Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Shough is the guy who missed guys at combine isn't he?
beast (27-Apr) : It's not official until I'm dead! I have a chance still! (Not really)
