Tolbert to the Cowboys. Sucks.

wrong again!

I thought Chenal would go to NE in round 2. Maybe here.

no dean for you...

Faalele is sort of a freak. I think a lot of bust potential. But if he puts it together he could be really interesting.

I jinxed it. Dulchic gone.

And they added Pierce in round #2. That's a nice offensive haul considering they didn't have a first rounder.

At this point, f we are looking offense, I'm looking at WR Jalen Tolbert, TE Greg Dulcich, TE Jeremy Ruckert, WR David Bell, and OT Daniel Faalele.

The number of wideouts taken seems absurdly high.

There goes Raimann

It’s been a fun draft.

Wow. The hammer has fallen. And hard. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33827168/los-angeles-dodgers-trevor-bauer-suspended-two-seasons

I'm sort of fascinated by TE Greg Dulcich of UCLA. Guy isn't a blocker, but he could be special as a receiver. Rodgers seems to love TEs who can catch. Dulcich would qualify as such. Probably a round 3 pick - but I doubt he drops to us at #92.

Positional need is always a huge factor. But for the most part, stick with your board. The Packers did that - and I'm happy they did so. They investigated moving up, but didn't like the price. Again, that's smart. And let's point out - for everyone saying we need a WR, well, we also needed a DL and a LB. Having Adams and MVS didn't stop the 49ers from ramming the football down our throats a few years ago. Also, it's not like the draft is done. There are some good looking players on the board.

Brady Clark was a perfect Milwaukee Brewer. He was a gritty, blue-collar battler (overblown adjectives intended) who never would have been a major leaguer if talent was the only deciding factor. His potential was so underwhelming that he wasn't even drafted out of college. But he would spend parts of nine seasons in the majors, including four with Milwaukee. Brady Clark was born in Portland, Oregon, in 1973. A right-handed hitter, Clark played outfield for San Diego State. He would be signed as an undrafted free agent by Cincinnati. He came up through the Reds system, hitting everywhere he went (.307 minor league BA). He made his major league debut in 2000 at age 27 and then spent the next three years bouncing between the minors and majors (mostly the minors). But Clark's life would change when the Brewers plucked him off waivers in 2003. He was a 30-year-old journeyman outfielder who lacked the power to play corner outfield and the range to play center field. Clark would spend only nine games at AAA before getting called up by Milwaukee. Initially, he was a reserve outfielder and pinch hitter, but as time went on, he found himself with more and more playing time, especially in right field. Clark served as a part-time starter for two seasons, hitting .273 and .280, respectively. He improved his power numbers (modestly) and walk rate, prompting the Brewers to give Clark the center field job in 2005 after the club traded Scott Podsednik for Carlos Lee. Clark, playing full time in the majors for the first time at age 33, responded with an excellent season, batting .306 with a .372 OBP and a .798 OPS. His defense in center was solid, if unspectacular. Alas, 2005 would be Clark's high watermark. His numbers would drop across the board in 2006, and before the 2007 season began, he was dealt to the Dodgers after being replaced by Bill Hall. Brady would bounce between the Dodgers, Padres and Mets, and the minor leagues before wrapping up his playing days after the 2008 season. A brief comeback attempt in the spring of 2010 officially marked the end of his career. For Milwaukee, Brady Clark was a good player in the years, leading to a return to relevance. His lack of speed and power always limited him, but he had a good eye at the plate and knew how to put the ball in play. His 2005 season was memorable, producing 2.8 fWAR / 2.4 bWAR in center while hitting .306 (10th in the NL). In his four years in Milwaukee, he produced a .284 BA and a .361 OBP while playing all three outfield positions. Not bad for a guy who was never drafted. After retiring, Clark returned to Oregon (where he grew up) to raise his family and begin a career as an investment banker. Also, he stays involved with baseball by offering hitting instruction and clinics to individuals and groups. Please share your memories of former Brewer outfielder Brady Clark. View full article

Thanks for posting. That's seems to be what others have said. Don't like the incidents - and it's a red flag - but the team seems okay with the guy.

My Day 2 prediction will be Leo Chenal going to New England in round 2. Dude would fit great there.

Maybe that Kummerow guy is available...

Exactly. And they would have transitioned nicely into a starting role in another year. Oh well. Thoughts on Pitre?

Still lots of guys on the board who can help us. One of the draft's strength was the depth into the 2nd round. McBride (TE), Watson, Pickens, Pierce, Skyy Moore. All these guys can come in and play. The key will be avoiding a run on WRs in the 2nd round like there was in the first. If the team really wants someone, they may have to do a deal as someone noted.

Doah! Cine and Hill snagged to end the first.

Egad. Hate to see that sort of thing.

I know we need offense, but this is pretty cool. Our interior defense was bad the last couple of years. Huge upgrades. Still need some receivers and an offensive lineman or two . Maybe a safety. But going good so far.

Oh yeah. The defense is gonna be good next year.
