I'd applaud you 100 times over if I could, Zero. Drafts picks are just that, picks. They have NO proof that they will EVER pan out. Look at how many "can't miss" number one picks have crashed and burned over the years.
With Rodgers, we HAVE a proven top notch QB. Who hopefully has another 5 or so years left of high level play.
A known great who is still young enough and a proven leader for a bunch of "maybe's?"
No thank you!

As if we needed more evidence as to why you, your friend and Porforis will never sniff the Front Office of any professional football team.

I don't think ANY of us here would be qualified to be a NFL GM.
There are only 32 of them in the world, and it's not an easy job to attain. (Even harder to hold on to)

I think I could be the GM for the Cleveland Browns. Not like I could mess it up any more than it is.

Here's a tip! Draft picks do not win Super Bowls. Elite Quarterbacks do! Get that through your melon and appreciate what fortunes we have as Packers fans!

damn kids these days

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

This deal reminds me of three things

The movie Draft Day but in the end that is fantasy and it is Seattle that gets stuck.

John Hadl. That deal burred GB for years. Do I ever wish it would happen to LA too but they will pick up a player with more skill and potential than Hadl had at that point in his career.

Ditka trades it all for Ricky Williams then NO dumps Ditka and gets two #1s when they pawn him off on Miami.

Does anyone else think it is weird that LA is hosting both Goff and Wentz to tryouts? Is this the NFL telling them to keep people guessing to keep up the entertainment factor? If I just sold the farm you better be sure I know who I just did that for.

I noticed a few things on Twitter and thought it was on ESPN (I have only over the air) so I thought I was missing it. And then about 40 minutes later I find it on TV and already knew the winners.

Could the Rams change their mind? Of course, but when they pulled the trigger for the trade, they had one guy locked. Basing this statement off what their GM said that they "obviously" have a leader in the clubhouse.

The only way I'd go through with trading Rodgers at this point, is if the coaching staff is 100% certain that Hundley is the real deal.

Out of all the guys you mentioned, only Dilfer consistently sucked, even in his Super Bowl year. Trading away Rodgers, getting a boatload of picks and then having to go with a guy like Bryan Hoyer still has a rather high possiblity of backfiring.

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.
