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.
