DakotaT;275857How do know Uffda isn't a troll?
He only has 99 posts.

Now Zero being a bitch about draft picks pisses me off!

The thing is, we need all these positions.
Would have like to have seen an inside linebacker, but it must be a poor year for the position.
Hope the Barrington kid can knock some teeth loose.


This is the stuff that I do not like happening here. Someone ignorantly spouts off singling one person and then watch others equally ignorant pile on. You can stop this behavior or discontinue your time at PH. We have no room for this childish behavior.

Troll? He has over 100 posts about PACKERS in the last what two or three weeks? You're the one trolling with your singling people out and pointing fingers. Grow up already. It's DRAFT TIME! Have fun, whine about the picks or gloat about the picks ... not the fans. My lord.




I agree about inside linebacker. I was thinking one of the first two picks would be LB for sure. Again, shows my ignorance with drafts lol

I think the group the Packers have at TE is adequate enough for the needs of the offense.

This shows us getting bigger on the line and a pass catcher that can take on linebackers. People call him a project. Well that's fine because we have great offensive coaching.

Sounds like a great guy, one who knows his strengths and what he wants to do playing TE for the Packers. Seems very confident.

Heard raves about his cut blocking abilities, and about some of this struggles with inline blocking. I'm sure that can get shored up with the right coaching and development. This is a very confident player. Nice pick.

One of the staples of Ted's draft strategy seems to be putting a priority on intelligence.

All of these picks have been well-spoken and seem intelligent.

As we've learned on defense the last few years, mental mistakes can destroy your team.

A-Rod will only toss the rock to guys he trusts to be in the right place at the right time.

Like this pick more after listening to this interview. Football is in his blood.

Apparently Richard Rodgers is cousins with Jairus Byrd. So that's as good as it's gonna get for you guys who wanted Ted to sign him!

You must've missed Khyri Thornton's conference call. He sounded anything but intelligent. [laughing]

Thanks for the backing Zero...
I laugh when I get called a troll.
Just someone unhappy that I'm not fanning their illusions.
Some drink kool aid and think everything TT does must be gold because he's an NFL GM and we're clowns on a message board.
I get that...however, it doesn't take a rocket science major to realize we're not and have not drafted one elite speed athlete in this draft.
Speed kills.
A guy like Kaepernick and his ilk kills us and we're going to trout out the same group again this year.
That makes no sense to me at all.

keep posting.
I don't want everyone to say the same thing.

I hated it when Uncle Teddy was saying they were going to switch to speed.
Obviously you don't want 11 mudders plodding along out there but when
Starr was HC he said they wanted to go smaller and quicker.
They took George Cumby and gave us him getting leveled by The Frig in the endzone.

It has to be a mix.
Not too big and heavy they can't cover.
Not so small and quick they can't defend.
The guys this year appear to be able to stand their ground.
The Adams and Rodgers are not flea quick but are strong and possession receivers.
