Oh...and on this one, yes, because if I say he REMINDS me of Adams(and he's been better statistically his first two years than Adams who many Packers fans and beat Writers wanted cut for his drops)...then that DEFINITELY means I expect him to turn into the same EXACT caliber of player! But maybe go check out Adams early on? Then Wicks...or...I don't know, see if there's any kids who may be bending your lawn the wrong way...
-
(I said he'd be an interesting pick! Unlikely but I'd like him). I don't know anything about him, but I'm going to lean heavily on his VERY miniscule % of drops and...randomly bring that up! Then there is the guy you re-tweeted whose face looked like...well, a certain type of doughnut, right? Yes...not a SINGLE utterance, more like...several! My mistake! I don't know how I twisted that all on my own and just created a negative theme to your posts! I would like to take this time to SINCERELY apologize for totally mischaracterizing your posts! You didn't say "the season was over" about 3 quarters into the season was over last year, say they have no chance this year and you have been that little sliver of sunshine on an otherwise cloudy day!

Good lord! I love on and you're ALREADY on here with your...positivity! Is this constant delightful disposition still my fault? I don't know, maybe what I said was just too...complicated? What I ACTUALLY said; I'll give you this, Wicks IS a 5th rd pick. You...definitely nailed that one. He was also outstanding as a rookie...he dropped the ball last year. You remember when they drafted guys like Cobb or Nelson? Generally before they needed them. You also remember two years ago when it was all rookies and 2nd year players and they were a missed FG away from a likely trip back to Det for the NFCCG? So yeah, I think we're underrating the current group A TOUCH. They were worse last year than the year before. https://packerswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/packers/2025/03/24/green-bay-packers-wide-receivers-compare-nfl-stats-reed-watson-doubs/82623749007/ Dude, pour the cheerios out, throw away that bowl...I don't know where you live, so it wasn't on me, but I love on and you're still on here just searching for things to complain about!

I'm not a big fan of Royal, but I like Higgins. What do you think they do that Golden doesn't? Higgins has that big frame, but...what we needed more than anything was someone to replace the deep speed that Watson provided. That's why I liked Thornton(and Higgins). I would take that trade without a doubt, but there's just too much long term upside in the additional 1st. Moving down ~20 spots is a relatively small price to pay, but I really like Golden. IF he's Olave but has that type of speed, that's a unique player. The rest of the WRing core...I think we're underrating them a touch. Jayden Reed is a VERY solid #2 WR. Doubs...is a bit of a question mark, but he's also a good #2/3 when he's on the field. Wicks...he really reminds me of Adams. Adams took that jump year 3 so you obviously can't just assume that, but he's so smooth and he can get off the line so effortlessly. Add Kraft, Musgrave...I still think Thornton could be a great pick if he's there in Rd5. But that's a group of receivers that can beat you on all 3 levels, that can make guys miss and that you can do a LOT with. If you can add a guy who runs clean, crisp routes, excels at double moves and runs a 4.29, I don't see a weakness.
-
If he's as slick as Olave, that's...a big time pick. We all(mostly) like Golden, but if ATL offered the Packers #46+200-whatever+2026 1st, would you have taken that?
-
I have a really boring Roth. I have ~20% in VXUS and then I own TSM(but I assume you meant ETFs). My Roth is just steady and boring. I don't get the returns in there and I don't get the gains. So in other words, I wouldn't have been up ~45% in '23/'24 and I wouldn't be down...honestly, I don't even know as I just ignore it at this point, but it's more than the market. NVDA and AVGO are down(or were) ~33% and 50% at one point. TSM is down from ~225 to ~150. AMZN was 245, that was down to 170. I'm keeping about 12 months of money to cover bills in the Vanguard Settlement Fund and then the rest that I...just don't want to risk in BRK.B. Every dollar extra has been going into there. I have a newfound appreciation for it.
-
Philly just got a stud in Campbell. They've got OL, DL, DBs...all set. This is a great place to take a LB and a very high ceiling LBer.
-
So...scroll down and I think you'll see why I'm not taking THIS guy seriously...at all. You found a miserable troll on Twitter who doesn't like the pick. Congrats!
-
Simmons is less surprising given his injury. We were all talking about it being an ACL, but I think he'd have been picked(or would be by KC) if that was it. His injury can impact that first contract. With Johnson, they're talking about potentially impacting the 2nd. Buffalo with Hairston. That's a good pick. I'm dying to see what Philly takes when they flip with KC. If it's Johnson, I'll cry...
-
Buffalo has to be going CB here. That's a huge need for them. I think Johnson still goes late first or at WORST early 2nd...but we'll see. Johnson at worst is a great C3 CB if he has lost a step.
-
Washington is definitely building up that OL for Jayden Daniels. Adding Tunsil and now picking up Conerly? That's exactly the way to go when you hit on that QB.
-
Yes, that I would have jumped on. Bad teams or average teams who are an injury or two away from being bad trading 1st rd picks? That's a risk that's USUALLY worth taking. 46+a 6th+2026 1st...and next year appears to be a better draft?
-
And again the sun is out and shinning and you're pointing out those little clouds to us. What would you have done? You said Campbell and I said...'that'd be an interesting pick, great off-ball.' And then it was, 'eh, I just threw out a name, Quay sucks.' LOL... the guy who won the lottery, but he's upset about the taxes!
-
I think Watson was past the pesky injuries. Going and working at the lab in Madison did a lot for him and Stokes in terms of pulled muscles. If he can get back next year and not necessarily make a big impact, but show he's healthy, I'd definitely be happy to bring him back and have a WR corp of Golden, Reed, Watson and Wicks...with Kraft and Musgrave. That is a stable. As for Will Johnson, I'd advocate moving up for him...if we moved Jaire or Doubs and added picks, but not with the 8 we came into the day with.
-
It's not cheap, but 13M with no further commitment and you get to see how he comes back from the ACL? Plus, the Cap will be ~300M or higher next year. LOW 8 figures isn't a big deal. What, 13M roughly? Seeing what the Giants gave up, #34, #99+2026 3rd pick...I'm happy with Golden. Also, he is NOT redundant with the WRs we have. He CAN be interchangeable, but nobody else gives you that deep threat he does(not meant for you, just an additional...). But your comp? Devonta Smith? Or Waddle?
-
Yeah, that's fair. I think he's a pretty safe pick, but Golden kinda reminds me of Jameson Williams. He's so explosive and he's well rounded. I liked Thornton later just to get that deep threat as I didn't think we'd take a WR Rd 1, but a guy with his speed?
-
And the Vikings were really smart. They had picks #32 and #34 but refused #32 so the Packers didn't get the 5th year...which would be particularly useful right about...now. Still, I wouldn't say this is proof he's gone.
-
I didn't think he had anything that serious but maybe it's just the number. I thought it was turf toe that sidelined him and then he pulled a hammy.
-
I thought in your write up, you had Johnson top 10 and you didn't think he'd make it to 23. What do you dislike about Johnson? Not that I disagree about Amos, but Johnson looked great in '23.
-
Snapper is still crabby, but...LaFleur is gonna love this dude!
-
Well... good route runner and this dude has that ELITE speed. I'd have preferred a CB...but without the testing, I'm good waiting until tomorrow. Kid is going to be used in a LOT of different ways. He's not just some track guy either.
-
I wish Murphy would shut up...
-
LOL...no. Maybe if it was Harlan, but not Murphy!
-
Gotta be Golden or Johnson...
-
It would have to be because Johnson didn't do the testing. He's a prototypical CB on film. He should be an easy pick.
