Couple more thoughts.....

Front Seven was THE Biggest concern going into the draft by far.

Front Seven Going into the Draft

Jenkins/Pickett/Harrell or Jolly
Kampman/Hawk/Barnett/Poppinga or anyone else

Front Seven After the Draft

Jenkins/Picket or Raji/Raji or Pickett
Kampman/Hawk/Barnett/Matthews

Raji is a run stuffer and a pass rusher. He could add four to five sacks to this defense. That doesn't sound like a lot, but for a 3-4 defensive lineman, it is. For any DT, it is.

Matthews also could add a couple of sacks via the pass rush. Probably four or five again.

1. You upgraded your run game with Raji and now less pressure is on Justin Harrell and Johnny Jolly who become more rotational guys.

2. You add probably 8 sacks between the two players to this defense and that goes along with the 10 that Kampam is usually good for and Jenkins will get some too. It upgrades the pass rush.

You got to feel good about the Packers defensive front seven now. I feel great about it honestly and before the draft, I was really worried.

I'm with you on this - they really addressed that area, and it was good to see. Now anything we get from Harrell is almost a bonus - if he rebounds well from the injuries and inactivity, our rotation in front looks scary.

Come on Adrian, try to run over Big BJ.

I think our run defense will be much much better now.

I'm so glad that we got Raji, he upgrades our pass rush AND our run defense. Not often you get a dominating DT that can do both. If Raji stays clean, I think he will be one of my favorite people on this team.

truly, i think that we had a solid a- mostly because of b.j. raji, and clay Matthews. there was one sleeper that we got and i dont think many other know about:jamon meredith
mccarthy wont take sh** from him, he hasnt from anyone
solid blocking i think and one big guy

I ride quads.

I'm incredibly happy with the draft, and doubly so after hearing that Pickett may kick outside on some downs in the 3-4. T.J. Lang was very underrated. I LOVE Raji. I had Meredith in all of my Packers mocks. The only thing I'm concerned about is Matthews because I really haven't watched him much, but I love his attitude in interviews/game clips.
I'm also happy as hell with how the UDFA signings have gone so far. Jamarko Simmons looks like a beast. Every one of those clips where he catches the ball in traffic he starts blowing by people.

2 questions - Where can I watch these interviews with Matthews and where can I watch these plays by jamarko Simmons ... and is he really 241 pounds for a WR? (NICE!)

Mucky Tundra (4h) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (6h) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (6h) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (7h) : Play or Rest*

beast (7h) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

go.pack.go. (10h) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (18h) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (18h) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (20h) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (20h) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (20h) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (21h) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

beast (29-Dec) : Is the Eagles QB Hurts playing? I forgot to check

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : Geeze Zero get it right!😋

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : I guess 3 games. Whatever

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (27-Dec) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (27-Dec) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Dec) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (27-Dec) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (27-Dec) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (27-Dec) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is
