Many of you are as bad as "chicken little". He thought that the sky was falling too.

BG may be a new GM, but he has been preforming pretty well so far. Allow him the full stage to preform on and not pass judgement while the show is on. I'm quite sure that he is aware of his team's needs and will I'm sure be working to fill the roster with the best players that he can get.

I posted that I hope the BG selects the best CB that he can with the 14th pick. Again, what do you want to see BG do with the 14th draft pick?

I like what BG has done so far.
I have a lot of hope for this coming season. He has shown that he wants to win NOW.

Picking who you CONSIDER the “BPA” doesn’t guarantee that you will be getting someone who is going to be a great NFL player.
Stocking up on one position while ignoring glaring positions of need is a surefire way of sucking for several years.
Just because some college kid SEEMS to be a great pick doesn’t guarantee he will do anything in the pros.
You can go through the 1st round drafts the last 20 years and pick dozens of “can’t miss” picks that MISSED.
Picking for “BPA”. What has that got us?
Glaring holes in our defense.
Sometimes the BPA and our need happen to end up the same.

Many have been and still are predicting that GB will use their #1 pick to get a DE/OLB that can get sacks right away. Another group says that GB will get a CB that fits or exceeds the teams minimum size requirements. Some want a WR and others want an Offensive Tackle.

The "best available player" crowd is still around would be happy getting a RB if they felt that he was the best player available.

I would look to fill the greatest need with the best player that would fit the team best.

That’s one thing that will end now.
Maybe the new GM will have a better idea of who will be the best player for the Green Bay Packers.

I said it weeks ago and I'm gonna stick to it. I hope Roquan Smith out of Georgia falls to us. Not necessarily a position we need but I think he has the potential to be a Pro Bowl MLB. Has the speed we've lacked for years.

Which ever way they go - any game changer on D would be good to me.

I would die if somehow Josh Allen fell to us at 14. That would be so awesome but i know its a fairy tale. But just think they drafted a qb that fell in the draft when Favre was 35 and if the same thing happened Rodgers would be 35 lol. I see a de ja vue coming. Rodgers wants to make the front office decisions already. He will hold the team hostage now with his contract. Will BG have the balls to trade Rodgers away in a few years or let him walk

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