What do the Packers do now?

John Clayton said that the Packers had the inside track on Michael Turner... I think that might have went out the window so what do they do for RB now. Grab one in the 2nd round? How do they trade now? Maybe someone else has some input. :D

Three words: Fire Ted Thompson!

 

Lets give Ted the benifit of the doubt. Who really liked our draft last year outside of the Hawk pick?

I wasnt really happy about it up until pre season. After seeing those guys play I changed my mind.

Im not high on the Harrell pick, but he is a good player. Obviously seeing Branch go into the second adds a little salt on the wound, but I'll still hold off my opinion for a while longer.

On Harrell. Not a good pass rusher but good run stuffer.

 

Pat Kirwan's Analysis

I had Justin Harrell going somewhere at this point in the draft because when he regained his health, it demonstrated to the NFL -- with the 35 reps on the bench -- NFL personnel people went back and looked at 2005 game tapes and convinced themselves he was a first-round selection because he has a unique ability to disengage from blockers and make plays in the backfield.

 

Gil Brandt: Harrell was injured in 2006; he tore his pectoral muscle and missed most of the season, so you had to go back to 2005 to see what he could do as a defensive lineman. He has been well coached by Texas associate head coach John Chavos. He has regained all the strength he lost during the time he was injured.

 

Vic Carucci: Thanks to the Bills, the Packers couldn't get the running back they wanted in this spot. They needed defensive tackle help, and at one point, it seemed Alan Branch of Michigan would be te next player selected at the position after Okoye ... if not before Okoye. But concerns over Branch's tendency to play too upright and over his health made him too much of a risk for the Packers. Harrell is healthy and a safer choice. He should be a force against the run and a solid anchor for Green Bay's defensive line for a long time.

I'd be happy with Bush.

I'd still like a db or Zach Miller at 46 though.

 

 

 

He's gone but Chris Houston's still available. I like Michael Allen later. Kalil is too. Too bad the Pack isn't drafting a center.

Houston is now gone as well...

I think we're going Leonard, Wright, or Pittman

 

 

 

Eric Wright could be the man. McCauley's a little shorter.

 

Pittman or Leonard are interesting but TT may go RB later.

 

I'd grab Kalil if there. He would be a huge improvement to that line.
