I thought they might do this simply to avoid just too many pieces being moved around this offseason but after this game I don't think it'll happen.

You might have to let some cap casualties go for example Aaron Jones but asides that the core of the team will remain the same. Dillon was drafted to take the reigns from Jones that was clear and obvious.

All I know is cap is looking bad for next year. Remember how people use to hate Ted Thompson for letting players walk / cutting some players during their mid careers.

Top three picks should be DL, DL, and WR, in any order.

King will come back cheap. I thought Jackson held up in his playing time. Could also be a safety/hybrid guy unless he doesn't want that.

We just went yo the NFCCG two years in a row, and we are still.on the ascent.

And btw, Aaron is "wasting" his own career. At least he cut down on turnovers since last year's NFCCG.

Hard to imagine anyone covering worse than King - including a rookie. Done with him.

He can take Pettine with him... and Zook

I'm not gonna go off-topic, but needless to say their wasn't any glaring area of weakness in terms of talent that led to this NFCCG loss (note: I'm excluding the fact that Bakthari was injured; an all-pro LT probably gets us a win today ... but just the luck of the draw that our own all-pro LT who fit the bill got injured less than a month ago in practice).

I really, really hope King is gone. Kevin King has been injury prone in his time with GB, had no picks, and has shown himself to be lacking technique (both coverage and in tackling). This is probably the sour taste in my mouth still talking, but I'd rather move on from King (and Sullivan) and force ourselves to improve at CB. Other than on a vet. minimum, I just don't know what value or return on investment the Packers get by bringing back Kevin King.

This team is obviously ready to win now. Love is no Rodgers. He was never even thought about going 1st overall, or even top 10 really. Completely different situation. I will criticize it because there were so many needs we had at the time. Yet we still somehow made it as far as we did. Does nothing but continue to waste Rodgers career.

You draft for the future and you plug in holes with free agents.

I will say this. It does beg me to question if Aaron Rodgers had been more prolific in 2019, if the best player on the board would have been someone else other than QB Jordan Love. That four year contract extension signed in 2018 looms large.

Oh yeah, I mentioned this topic is about Kevin King. I think the Packers overvalue him. He's often injured or dinged up and he's another one of those guys I don't like because he celebrates the WR dropping the ball as if he did something. He can kick rocks.

Unless they trade ALL their draft picks to move up where they MIGHT get an instant difference maker, you probably won’t get a great player.
And getting to the conference championship puts you as a #30 pick.
So doing good (not great with a SB win) you are going to not get a high draft pick.

I heard that Kevin King has been in the hospital in Green Bay since the NFC title game.
He’s been in the “burn unit”. The doctors say they never saw someone with that many burns survive.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
