Definitely didn’t mind the trades - this team needs talent.The extra picks are just what this team needs in this draft at this moment in time.
top comment: "That's the most Wisconsin looking draft party I've ever seen. This was destiny."2 TEs was interesting. Just be better than Deguara and Sternberger were as picks.
Though Tucker Kraft is already a Wisconsin guy…just look at that draft party. And a later story where he apologized to the Packer PR person…saying “yes sir” to her. Then saying he had a few drinks while waiting for his name to be called.
I think there is risk with Branch. He's not a true safety and more of a nickel back. If the Packers were a safety away from the SuperBowl then he would probably be my pick. But I don't think this draft is about this year. It's about next year and the years after that. It seems like that is how the Packers are approaching this season. They are taking the salary cap hit for Rodgers this year and he's totally off the cap next year. Their draft picks all have huge potential and growth potential and may take a year or two to develop.I was disappointed about passing on Branch and then the trade to see Detroit take him. Maybe JL Skinner in the 4th if he's there? There are still OL out there but am not sure if they have they have the versatility that normally fits the scheme. There are so many picks to play with, it will be interesting to see how they go. Looking at what's left, I like some of they names, just curious to see who fits.
Signed a safety…Jonathan Owens. Not sure enough about him yet. Other than he is married to Simone Biles. Id guess they have a good chance at athletic kids should they choose to have any.
I haven’t seen his PFF grades from last year, but the eye test and team reporter chatter was that he sucks in coverage.Signed a safety…Jonathan Owens. Not sure enough about him yet.

He is never in there. Needs to be cut after this year. Sucking up a roster spot and cap space.Bahktiari now to IR. So at least missing the next 4 games but given this goes back now over two years…who knows what his availability will be even after the 4 weeks.
Sucks all around as he is so damn good when in there.
He may very well retire if his knee can’t hold for any more than 50ish snaps in one game.He is never in there. Needs to be cut after this year.

Lafleur should look in the mirror.Lafleur rips into DC Berry in press conference saying it was insane to keep using the same scheme and expecting different results.
So true...as he says that and talks about hard for Love to throw from his back but he keeps calling longer developing plays over and over again in the first half.Lafleur should look in the mirror.Lafleur rips into DC Berry in press conference saying it was insane to keep using the same scheme and expecting different results.
Hopefully they figure out how to block Maxx Crosby. Because that Oline isn't getting it done. The Royce Newman experiment needs to end.This is going to be Love’s test - how does he rebound next Monday?
They do need to do something about reselling the tickets to non-Packer fans. But think about it. Thursday night game. You would have to take Thursday afternoon off, Friday off, the price of tickets and gas, and then possibly an overnight stay at a hotel (minimum of 2 night stay on game days). Add it all up and you are looking at a lot of money spent for those fans. Several hundreds of dollars at the very minimum. Perhaps don't make weekly night games gold ticket packages.Also…quit giving Milwaukee ticket holders games if the stadium is going to have that many visiting fans. Piss poor showing out of the gold package.
Jones was more likely on a pitch count.Put a lot of that loss on LaFleur. How many times did Jones touch the ball in the first half?
Pass rush getting through the line and still deep drops looking downfield. Love has to be better to getting rid of the ball and taking the outlets…but feel LaFleur left him exposed with the game-plan early.
Sure…but I really don’t recall him even touching the ball in the first half. Why even put him out there?Jones was more likely on a pitch count.Put a lot of that loss on LaFleur. How many times did Jones touch the ball in the first half?

That’s all on LaFleur. The DC is his hire. Berry sucked last year. He has sucked this year. Nothing has changed — so that’s on LaFleur.Lafleur rips into DC Berry in press conference saying it was insane to keep using the same scheme and expecting different results.
Yes as much as I like him…he keeps Barry and keeps doing the same things with respect to ignoring the run (and especially Jones) and taking too long to get out of the deep drops when his qb is getting pressured constantly (and that goes back with Rodgers too).That’s all on LaFleur.

He also continues to oversee a team with special teams mistakes that are repeated (like stubbornly having the KR keep bringing the ball out of the endzone…..)Yes as much as I like him…he keeps Barry and keeps doing the same things with respect to ignoring the run (and especially Jones) and taking too long to get out of the deep drops when his qb is getting pressured constantly (and that goes back with Rodgers too).That’s all on LaFleur.

He is a good coach…but definitely needs strong coordinators to be able to assist.
Team leader, has gotten better every year, don’t mind it at all.Rashan Gary just agreed to a 4-year $107M contract extension.
Just horrible decision making from the front office coupled with terrible coaching. Packers need to jettison these two right after the season.MLF/Gute don't deserve a pass on this
The roster stinks. The guys they paid aren't performing
And they aren't winning any toughness or strategy battles right now.
Im ready for a new regime.
I still think Rams win to be honest. This team as currently constructed and coached is atrocious.Sucks Stafford is out sunday.
Would much rather go 4-13 than 5-12 or 6-11
