Disagree with the biggest draft bust thing. Yes he was a high first rounder and didn't live up to the hype but at least he suited up and gave it an effort. Bruce Clark was the #4 overall pick in 1980 after apparently warning the Packers not to take him and they still did. He never signed with them. To me, picking a guy who says "don't take me I won't sign" is worse than picking a guy who everyone in the world thought was the best player to take at the time.

Who am I forgetting?

The 2015 Secondary is going to be steamed and served this season.

The Inside Linebackers will be the next disappointment. Ted Thompson drafted who from where ? Free agent LB's that were not wanted by other teams, but Ted Thompson likes them !

Don't blame Coach McCarthy or his Staff when the Packers Defense gets mowed like a lawn.

BLAME 🇹🇹 .

I am done with this thread. It feels like I have read the same post re-worded 20 different times.

Interesting article. It does go on to say he didn't want the Packers to draft him. I remember the whole LA and Guns and Roses thing at the time.
