  1. Nelson was drafted in 2008; Driver was 32 at that time, Jennings was coming out of his 2nd year and Jones was on the team but was (correctly) assessed as a depth WR but not a star. Nelson was an early pick, that was much needed on the roster with Driver's impending decline, he just had a bit more juice left than probably expected. Cobb was drafted 64th after winning the Super Bowl with the #1 ranked defense in the league. This comp doesn't make any sense anyway, because nobody the Packers have on their roster right now is even remotely comparable to Jennings or Driver especially at the point they drafted Cobb. Jennings was an established star by then. Or is the argument that because we lost a divisional playoff game last year, our WRs are good? Or are we hanging our hat on having the No. 4 ranked 4th WR in the league? Lol. My God, there's Kool-Aid, and there's green-dyed vodka. Their WR group is not anything special. It's a pool of average. Having a bunch of average guys is...just average.
  2. Bud, I think it's time to give this dumbass schtick a rest. Nothing about this is "negatve" or egregious. Love doesn't have adequate targets and obviously the Packers agree, as does every roundtable commentator who said this was a statement on the Packers WR room. Time to take the Green Goggles off and look at the numbers. I'll be waiting for Wicks to turn into Adams any day now. 🤣
  3. Hang on...the Packers WR group is... underrated? The Packers current top 4 WRs are two 2nds, a 4th and a 5th who in 10 combined seasons have passed 700 yards twice (Reed twice). All of them have a drops issue. One can't stay on the field to save his life and one is depressed or unhappy or something, no one seems sure. You can make a case they only had to draft Golden because they've botched the WR group to this point. But whatever, stuff happens and you can only move forward I suppose. Reed is a solid NFL player, yes. I still think he has a chance to be really good. IMO Watson is the scariest guy they have but he is just completely unreliable. Doubs, I think it's pretty much time to admit he's just a guy. Wicks is a decent 5th round pick, but that's what he is. Again, there is a reason they felt they had to pick Golden. Sorry if this is too crabby but their WR group is average or worse. Each guy is deserving of being on an NFL roster which is something, but none of them are very good. Reed has at least been productive but he completely vanished from about October to January. The WR group is the exact opposite, it's overrated by the fans and they really, really need Golden to be their best WR.
  4. Actually it's just a guy making a funny joke. Maybe don't take it so seriously. You seem pretty crabby tonight.
  5. https://x.com/ChuckFBass/status/1915598666687041933?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet
  6. I literally haven't complained about the pick in a single utterance. I don't watch a second of college football. I couldn't care less about Campbell. I said exactly what I meant. He was just a name I threw out. That's what I said. The only thing I said was he looks a lot like a bunch of guys on the roster, which he does. The damn telecast itself described him as "not a #1". Someone points out that he can catch which completely contradicts his scouting report and it's not valid to point that out? You guys are taking this stupid crabby schtick way too far.
  7. "So while he got better with drops in 2024, the reality is that Golden had a 9.2% drop rate at Houston and a 7.4% drop rate for his career. None of the other top receivers in the 2025 class had a career drop rate higher than 5.1%."
  8. You guys are so crabby for pointing out the obvious.
  9. Good one. Super original.
  10. That stat was always kinda dumb. They spent most of that time with Jennings, Nelson and Adams who were all "lowly" second round picks. They didn't need to draft one early for most of those years. I won't pretend to know a lick about Golden. But on face alone it's another smallish tweener WR who looks a lot like the guys they already have.
  11. Well we need to have an excuse for leaving the playoffs early.
  12. Most of their first round picks have been a waste of resources. I'd settle for one that doesn't blow, couldn't care less what his position is.
  13. I just threw a name out. Quay sucks. They say lots of things.
  14. I'll just say Jihaad Campbell to the Packers.
  15. They're going to take an offensive linemen and the Internet's going to explode.
  16. Because he is happy. I just don't think he is the "demand a trade" type. It wouldn't shock me if he did, but I think he's like Dirk. He's said many things over the years that indicate as much as he wants to win, it's not the be-all, end-all. His upbringing and life story give him a different perspective than a lot of guys. If he is traded I think it's more likely initiated by the Bucks - they get a life-preserver of an offer that they know opens the door for the next generation of the team, which is currently slammed shut by mortgaged assets. That would require some foresight though and a major economic blow in the short term, so, maybe not likely either.
  17. I don't think Giannis is going anywhere.
  18. They've simply followed the lifecycle of the vast majority of recent NBA champs. An ascension, a title, and a descension that typically involves a handful of years middling in purgatory with old guys being paid too much, and a lack of assets because you sold them off to go for it. I am not upset about it, it's just what happens in the NBA. Does anyone here think Denver will win again? Toronto? Golden State bucked things because they had a ridiculous draft streak for a bit. Curry is the superstar, but Thompson and Green allowed for the dynasty. You can be frustrated we didn't get a second one, but realistically 2021 should have been the second one. It was the years before that where I would say they blew it, if they did blow it.
  19. This is going about exactly as expected. It's not even disappointing.
  20. The flipside of this nothingburger story is a world in which the Brewers make their personal best offer and he is today talking to the media about how "insulting" it was. I for one was very glad we did not keep him around. I didn't hate the guy or anything but I think his new contract is terrible. I just don't think he's that good.
  21. I'm not "concerned." I would be concerned if Chourio was doing this. Ortiz is a very bad hitter.
  22. Yeah that wouldn't happen. Frelick is headed over there the second that catch looks like it might not happen. It's a triple at worst. Yaz is 34 years old. Likely a double.
  23. 4-2 if Chourio is a millisecond slower.
