Who was going to start at safety for GB in 2020? Traded Dix, Gutekunst acquired Amos. The issue I've stated a long time was Gary was in a tier of at least 6 similar type players at the time. Gutey was unable to pull a trade to move down and acquire extra draft picks. 12 down to 21 is 400pts on trade calculator. 30 up to 21 is 180pts. 220 pts is equivalent to 10th pick of 3rd round. More points to move up and acquire Savage if you didn't use your pick on him right there. Montez Sweat went 26th and has outproduced Gary. Deebo Samuel was drafted 36th. Wasted opportunities on being aware if 6 players with say grade 88-89 at position you plan to address and trade values going from 50points per selection to 25pts 6 below yours screams trade down. So much volume wasted. And Love that had no reason to be move up for. Most of 2nd rd is 10 pts per selection. Starting from 7th selection 2019 PFRef has 6 1st rd with 20 or higher car pts. 2nd rd 5 of them. 3rd rd 4 of them. 2020 make it 13pts or higher from 7th selection- 9 in 1st 10 in 2nd. 4 in 3rd. It's almost like the blueprint is to trade below 18th selection and use what 4th and 5th you can to acquire 2nd or early 3rd selections who dropped far below projected value or just can't believe on your board is there. Maybe Gutey realized this for 2021 by staying put. And he'll do it again with the 4picks they own 1st and 2nd.

Apr 25, 2019: Seahawks traded 2019 1st round pick (21st overall, Darnell Savage) to Packers for 2019 1st round pick (30th overall subsequently traded, Deandre Baker), 2019 4th round pick (114th overall subsequently traded, Dru Samia) and 2019 4th round pick (118th overall subsequently traded, Hjalte Froholdt) 2 4th rd picks higher cost than I remembered. St killers. Steenburgen was 3rd selection 1 pick before Terry McClaren 2 picks before Chase Winovich. Loves 4th rd led to GB selecting Deguara in the 3rd who was projected 5th and 6th rounds

Won't lie but I would fear that their trade to acquire a 2nd pick ahead of us could result in them running a combo QB-WR ahead of us knowing we are selecting one in the 1st round. Interesting to look at WalterFootball. There the big board they have has Alec Pierce at 25. https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2022APierce.php There are 26 strengths listed. 2 weaknesses. Basically his ability after the catch to break it for big chunks of yards. Further down they make a comp to him believed to be Jordy Nelson as who they could see him being. I can get that if you watch the very last catch he makes in that video they have for him. Fully feels like watching Jordy up the seam in to endzone. At least if you miss your favorites(Olave, Watson, Burks, or Datson) It almost reads that Pierce could be darkhorse #1 of the group. You wouldn't need to get upset that you missed on the other top WRs. Reading up it would sound like the duo of Burks and Pierce then would compliment the other. Above someone mentioned looking for 2 OL in the first 4 picks. I see 1 being likely but the 2nd should come in the Runyan 6th or 7th round selection. Jenkins and Myers are recent 2nd round picks. With Bak locked up, Runyan's production, you are kinda wasting a chance to improve the team elsewhere if Bak and Jenkins return to form. LB or someone on the defensive front should be considered in 1 of the 4 picks.(if Gutey allows us to have 4picks in 1st and 2nd rounds) 11 of Walter Football's big board would be that type from 32-60. Datson is the only WR that is in that range. Only 3 OL in that range. Those in the trenches guys always see a few drafted later than expected. Though typically a lot of those are 1st rd expectations that are selected by the time 50 rolls around. As the draft rankings shape up it would feel like what GB needs are where the talent filling those needs are projected. We should have a good draft.

And I get that sentiment 100pct. I don't think he can reach elite #1 WR status due to that. But I would absolutely believe he's somebody that comes in and helps from day 1. Line him up at #2 or slot and let the intelligence and winning aspect of him get that part of the game done for you. He's bigger sized in weight and could see a speed increase by slimming down and working on finding that extra half step or full. I think with Rodgers and seeing his game film, Burks stands a good chance to gain trust and be targeted. There's just that possession and winner look I see the team and Rodgers needs. We still gotta find the #1 type but at #2 I think we'd be set there by selecting Burks big time.

So Packers FB posted a prospect primer on Treylon Burks. It was eye-catching. So go find some more video to watch. This young man right here you want on your team. You just see it. He's the Smartest guy on the field. Arkansas used him on so many different types of plays or routes, and Burks just owned them all. Typically you watch a highlight film and it's got too many similar type of plays. It felt like each highlight was for a different skill you want to see #1? Multiple different versions showing it. Slot? He showed going through the middle of field wasn't going to hold him back. Getting the ball to run a sweep or screen and he was going to get you yards and possibly break it big. I mention smartest on field, 1 sorta messed up goal line play he flashed open knew was about to be and had that signal to throw him the ball. It was high and behind yet still made that tough catch. Zone defense, QB rolling out he couldn't have presented an easier target for the QB. He recognized the zone broke off what appeared to be an out to sidelines and sat between the sideline defender and who was trailing in the middle. Maybe he had a bad combine. But that game tape shows me he would be an instant fit for Rodgers and Lafleur. The plays you see MLF call were covered successfully by Burks in highlights. You had Adams-MVS-Lazard while being able to run jet sweep. Dare I say DK Metcalf type? Watson hype was knocked down not 1 but 2 pegs.

Looking at a draft trade value offering 22 and 28 would acquire Washington's #11 with a little workaround for something else back in the 4th or 5th round grading or a player. That would be the Make a trade to get ahead of division rival and take somebody they may have considered. Though I don't see Minnesota with a need for WR from PFF mock. They do list SD and NO as teams who need a WR at 17 and 18. Running a quick mock first WR is drafted at 10. If these type of events play out you are staring at the possibility where GB moves up to select the #1 or #2 graded WR in the draft with having the draft capitol to do so. Garrett Wilson was that #10 pick. Drake London and Jameson Williams at 12 and 18 with being questionable due to injury would not make sense for GB. Olave and Burks at 20 and 21. So how much do we love Garrett Wilson over Olave or Burks? Seems Wilson was thought as around 8-12 a long time while London rose post Williams injury as well as Burks. Williams can not be realistically drafted in the teens. ACL tear will keep him out a long while before even returning to action as a Rookie. Aside from WRs What need who may be a top 12 on draft board would you expect GB to trade up to acquire should they drop around there or that you would want to see them trade up and draft if falls in the 10-15 selection.

Watch Gutey trade up and pick a QB and trade Love for a 6th rd selection. Seriously though Gutey having 2 1sts and 2 2nds, I don't see how he avoids trading up. In all likelihood he has his decision made up who he will trade up for if they reach a falling point. Olave for instance, I could envision he's convinced Olave won't make it below 17th selection and should he make it through 15th pick trades up to 16 to select him. Sure you can appreciate the aggressiveness, but he's done it twice where the projection was below that selection. That's what pains me using high draft capitol and overpaying on the toy using it on. Then somebody slides of course and you are unable to move up and get that new toy on a discount. 22 and 28 is perfectly reasonable to use 1 and trade down in to very early 2nd rd. It seems lately the at least 4 of first 6 2nd round selections are players expected to have been selected in 1st round. The draft capitol for trades really drops on what it takes to move up. Think I've said something like this before but I'd love to fill a draft with 2nd 3rd and 4th rd picks and make nearly none in the 5th-7th rds.(1 preferably for drop value) UDFAs seem to hit as much or more with impacts to the team than the 6th and 7th rd guys.

Yelich should be considered for Leadoff. He's great at swiping bags when he gets on. The concern for OBP is an odd concern. Hey should see better protection with the 2 and 3hitters to bat behind him with 0 outs. If Yeli can find a way back towards MVP Yeli, it will be a simple move back to 3 in the order. Doubt it happens because of Wong and Handedness L/R/L. I'd also mention confidence being removed that he's a 3hitter and placed leadoff to start the season might wreck Yelich's psyche even more. We haven't seen this yet in ST have we? Let's get the season started and adjust. Hiura hitting bombs again like 2019 could work to Yeli in the 3spots favor.

And he's pretty much where the line changes to slot size WRs except Watson it seems from next tier of WRs projected below Olave. Watson when compared to those guys it's not only his height advantage but he has longer arms, larger hands, better jump ability and top of the line speed. I so want a guy that should dominate jump balls in the end zone. Corner routes or crossing back of end zone. It takes but 1 offseason to have a guy deemed light for their size to bulk up. Which when you read the cons on NFL writeup seems to be his combined negative. "Can get locked up at LOS, Not winning enough contested hand catches. Not winning strength on jump contended passes. Less willing to cross middle field" All seems simple to address if he's underweight to size. Different logic would be he's filled out for his size and has these cons. Another con was seeming to mistake jump balls. Well Rodgers is pretty damn accurate with aversion from traffic where higher throws get picked. This con isn't a huge concern with ARod.

Well seems I found the guy to target via a WalterFootball WR rankings. #6 Christian Watson 6-4WR 4.36-40. North Dakota St. 32.5 Arm 10.13 Hand. Project a late 1st rd potential and certainly early 2nd rd. A comp listed Chase Claypool among N'Keal Harry and Elijah Moore pre draft. Surprise in senior bowl with a note that he had excellent explosion in jumps at combine. Besides the speed. Tell me how you can pass on the measureables along with the speed and jump? I now have a name to hope for in the draft. About last post Penning was my 2nd 1st selection it was Nakobe Dean who I took with 1st since he fell and Playing for Georgia which is a battle tested experience to produce those results. Edit: And now I see his Father played 5 years in the NFL. Dude. you have got to target Watson. The work ethic and results on his Athleticism for 6'4" WR more than likely a result of a father upbringing his kid to NFL style trainings. Dad was a CB maybe that was the push and desire but he overgrew that.

I took a mild 1 look see mock on pff. And also had an NFL.com mock with names to see what was written up. The WRs are plenty short. 6ft or under it seemed graded at or below our picks. Considering we have Amari R. I dont like that type in the 1st rd and I think went Tackle Penning and an Edge Rusher or ILB. 2nd rd picks those shorter WRs were gone And just felt draft was over. The names or positions didn't feel like a fit. I think now it had to be an ILB because Chenal was there and I didn't want to double down on LB picks. The Jist I got out of this is GB will need to move up and grab one of the taller WRs with higher grade to truly get the type to put on outside. They will clearly have ammo with 2 1sts and 2 2nds to get that guy(Gutey moves up in 1st 2 times already) so who is the top 20 WR in draft that we will be moving up for? Edit add. There seems to be a very large number of smaller Div 1 programs in this drafts top 50. I'm not the most enthused opinion on drafting these types when maybe 1 game played a year was vs a Top tier Program. I'd rather stick with the more experienced in first rd who have played vs NFL type speed and strength more often than somebody who will be learning and adjusting to adapt to it that first year or two on 1st rd selections.

I'll be different in saying I didn't like Dune at all. I would have walked out of the theater if it weren't for the fact my daughter sleeping sitting next to me. Last movie I went to that I walked out of was Anaconda. Venom was worthwhile for a theater go to. The end is what you want see to guarantee another ticket bought on the next Venom movie in theaters. Jungle Cruise was it? Duane Johnson movie. I'd call a not must see movie.

Brewers acquire Daniel Norris from Tigers
brewcrewdue80 replied to homer's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Thinking this acquisition is for September stretch when rosters expand and CC can use Norris frequently to get tough lefty batters out to get out of jams. Don't know if he'll make to many of the playoff rosters. But he'll give the team boost in September. Including that last tough week. -
Ok looks like Diaz was #86 at time of trade. I remember he had 1 year in it then completely bottomed out the next. Thought that had happened already time of trade but was after it. Harrison may have been in 70s but not MLB's. I'll stick with the consensus 120s-160s. I think the list I gave fits comparable. Tucupita Marcano is mid inf that ranks higher than Ruiz but he's nowhere near the HR power that Diaz brought while Ruiz is closer.
-
Precisely. If the Brewers were offered the current day equivalent of Brinson, Harrison, Diaz and Yamamoto for Hader, Hader would be on the next flight out of Milwaukee. For fun, what would the equivalent of that actually be from SD? Have to be something like Luis Campusano, Robert Hassell, Ryan Weathers, and a lottery ticket? On paper that is better than what Milw gave up. Only Brinson was a top 100 prospect. Diaz had touched top 100 briefly but not at time of that trade. Harrison has almost always been that 125-160 prospect while in Milw. Yamamoto was the throw in. CJ Abrams is likely Brinson. And then you start plucking names once youre below Weathers. Esteury Ruiz fits Diaz. Jorge Ona as a slight below Harrison. We'll say Efrain Contreras as Yamamoto had he had 2020 to pitch in minors.

I second this. While the 2007 season showed some glimmer of hope, the big trade deadline acquisition that season was Scott Linebrink, who, spoiler alert, did not prove to be the missing piece to put us over the edge. We always seemed to be taking the cautious approach to things. The acquisition of CC was so shocking because the Brewers of the past would never have made that move. in 2006 for thinking we could get Johan Santana. Then we actually went out and GOT a stud pitcher in CC Sabathia. And then he basically dragged us to the playoffs by himself. Truly incredible. Nice on the Youtube. Best part is bottom right is headline Wisconsin win Men's Hockey Championship.
-
Is Lewis Brinson near the worst top 15 busts? He's in his 4 season of ABs in the Majors and become a pinch hitter essentially. Now in that 4 seasons of time he's finally accumulated a full season's worth of PAs and sits at .530 OPS and a value of Negative -3.4 BWAR In no way can you think the Brewers lost on this trade, and where in rankings all time should this trade be ranked? Better than the CC Sabathia trade?

Unlimited fed printing and 0% interest rates really does wonders for a fake stock market doesn’t it? Oops sorry I was supposed to say “stimulates the economy.” 2020 pumping stocks is what 2019 was except all roided up. *Typing this as the futures are green and were on about 12 days in a row of the same exact “pumping stock futures at night and green markets all day long.” This bothers me also, but then again the Dow is based on 30 companies. My stock watch has lost one stock, and I feel at least 2 more are due to disappear or be bought out and absorbed. I imagine there are a few sectors that have or will be hit hard, but come the Dow 30, 3months is but a blip to them, I imagine the majority was deemed essential and business generally moved right on along.

Why would you think something like an oil supply crisis would happen? Trump filled the US oil reserves to the absolute tops couple weeks back or so when the oil prices were thought to be a great discount...one even better today. Here's where the economy will take a freefall, supply and demand with ongoing employment. I seen a Meier post early today letting customers be aware prices for many goods will be noticeably higher as we stay shut down. The last example which I remember was given eggs will have higher pricing. The millions of people that are or will be collecting unemployment, a reduced income that will end up purchasing less than what you could purchase with that same amount a week ago. It'll be a rippling effect. Food or clothing. Answer Food. Effect-say good bye to Kohl's in WI. Effect-jobs Lost. Effect-Unemployment increase. Effect-Market worsens. You get where this is trending. It'll only get worse when the money people get during this isn't saved and used for bills and rent. When that happens the housing market will take a bigger hit when mortgages are falling behind. But we'll see, what does the gov't do to slow that scenario? How long do we choose flattening the curve vs an economy slowly in ruins?
-
Thing is I think markets historically endure a lull late May til maybe October Maybe its late August. Obviously we're in abnormal times. Im just leery on the markets being propped up by the fed, Care plan, Trump's continued push to keep the economy in higher spirits. How bad will NY really be in the coming 2weeks now with aid from the Navel Boat? Market was also propped up when Biden had that big Super Tuesday. But he is clearly having speech issues[dementia?] and that may push Sanders back in to the Democrat candidate for Pres. We've all just been pushed back til April 30th. What happens if/when that becomes May 14th? When do small businesses go bellyup? Unemployment just last week for WI was 115,000+ new applicants. Trump i just read said tonight it's going to be a painful 2weeks. Seems just still a bumpy volatile road we're on to me to keep on the sidelines.

You Named it! That is the pizza place I was thinking of growing up. For back then extremely large pizzas and weren't the pizzas cut in smaller squares? Is Hup's still around?

With all the Closings, Cancellations, travel bans, etc, the World economy has to only continue down. I seen a post on my Facebook that early indications from recovered are dealing with20-30% lung damage, and that if you smoke or Vape it is worse. Think I read what we are seeing is called a Dead-Cats bounce. I don't see any way how the Markets can be any higher with all this stoppage over the next 30days. Market has to be lower than it stands now 30 days from now. Just wish we didn't have the insta down/ups or overnights, vs a long slow gradual decline. Losing 10% in one day is just brutal, and many of the stocks are I watch were actually down 15-20% yesterday. 1% here 1.5% there, gradual vs this overnight 5-6.5% start to the day.

Hey got what I hoped for, but now methinks DJ is headed for much bigger drop. I did put back some bonds in to stock funds today because I told myself I would below 24.5k. What a dip!

Another 1000÷pt gain. Ouch.
