We wouldn't have been able to get Matthews if we didn't have a certain extra third round pick.

I still say in terms of draft slot.. we paid too much to move into that slot...

2nd-41 3rd-73 3rd-83

for

1st-26 5th-162

I'd have liked to have received a 4th or 5th as well, but I'm down with it because it appears we have a solid player on our roster for years to come.

If he keeps playing this well, this could end up looking like a steal for us. I've done my share of complaining about TT, but this was a move I was ecstatic about when it happened.

Don't get me wrong.. I am okay with overpaying for a player here and there.. just that it was an overpayment at the time.. sometimes those risks reaps the reward.. just don't want to make a habit of it.

I'm glad he over paid for him, if that's the consensus. Perhaps it will turn a light on into his dome to trust his instincts on players and do what it takes to get them. 🙂

I mentioned in chat last night about how after yesterdays performance that Clay Matthews is now only 1 of 2 pass rushers drafted in the last two years who is averagin at least .5 sacks per game. In 12 games CM3 has 7.0, and Orakapo has 7.0 in 12 games as well. Taking a look at some other names that aren't up to that snuff, I think it's quite impressive what CM3 is doing. Chris Long (8.0 in 28 games), Larry English (2.0 in 12 games), Aaron Curry (2.0 in 12 games), Everette Brown (1.5 in 11 games). The biggest "pass rushing dunce cap wearer" (courtesy Peter King) is Vernon Ghoulston, supposed elite pass rusher of the future (0.0 in 25 games). Kudos to Thor and what he has brought to the Pack this year for being considered maybe only the 3rd best LB from USC this year.

Aaron Curry is not a pass rusher though. Just a 4-3 OLB.

Very true, was just one of the names in the list of 20 that jumped out to me.

The fact that he made a left tackle look mediocre most of the night is beyond amazing. The size difference alone was funny to watch when Matthews was standing him up and making moves to make the tackle.

Big honor for #Packers LB Clay Matthews: NFC defensive player of the week. Should help his cause for defensive rookie of the year.

Wow. That's pretty surprising. I had to read it a few times. Good for him!!
