    I think the division could also be pretty competitive. The Lions could be playoff caliber, the Vikings are usually in the thick of things. The Bears obviously stunk but depending on the pieces they add and Fields' development they could improve quickly.

    Packers Twitter will explode if they take a WR in the 1st, lol. I actually think if they land an extra 2nd, someone like Hyatt or Downs would be a nice potential target.

    I think if the plan was to run it back and expect to be in a similar spot to 2021, that plan had to include Davante Adams. Trying to run it back with a few rookie WRs and low end FAs looked like a flimsy plan even without the benefit of hindsight, IMO.

    The difficult part if we end up disappointed with trade compensation is knowing we could have almost certainly received a great deal more at this time last year. The old adage about it being better to move on a year too early than a year too late applies.

    Would anyone have any interest in Zach Wilson in return (in addition to pick compensation) as Love's backup?

    I'm excited to see what we get in trade while being prepared to be disappointed. I'd expect something conditional, but would be disappointed with a Favre type return. I'd be happy to land the Jets 1st this year if its guaranteed, even if that's the only piece. Anything more would be gravy. Prediction - their 2nd this year (#43 overall), and a conditional 2nd next year which can become a 1st.

    Didn't he essentially do that last season with his new contract? He'd be walking away from a lot of money to retire now. That's all a team can do to make a player commit to future years-- make it financially painful to walk away. Any player could walk away after any season whether they're 23 or 40.

    There's absolutely no way Rodgers is bringing back a top 5 pick and change. Seattle also doesn't make sense as a destination unless the Seahawks let Geno hit free agency and someone gives him a big overpay to leave Seattle. My guess is he'll be a bridge guy there for another 2 seasons and they'll draft his successor in '24.

    In this category, here were guys ahead of him: Jamaal Williams, Tyler Allgeier, Devin Singletary, Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson He was also near the bottom of this group in both YPC and yards per target. Especially for a 2nd round pick, the above names are nearly the definition of "just a guy."

    I mean yeah we do need a safety. Or two. Woof. But the class isn't very top heavy. We're not getting Brian Brach. So I'm thinking safety might be a Day 2 pick.

    I love how people scoff at the notion of taking a RB in the 1st round when we drafted a RB in the 2nd round as a backup RB and this 1st round RB is arguably the most talented player in the draft and arguably one of the top 5 RB prospects out of college in history.

    We'll be on the clock at #15. Here's an off the wall idea that should go around that range: #15: Bijan Robinson, RB Texas Hear me out on this, Aaron Jones has a cap hit of over $20M next year and that certainly isn't happening. Maybe he's back at a reduced cost or maybe it's simply time to move on. Dillon is just a guy. He'll be back in a backup role next year in the last year of his rookie contract and then likely gone. We've constantly added pieces for the defense, and with Love taking over next year it's time to add one for the offense. I know RBs are a dying breed but Bijan checks every box. Adding a likely generational RB to take some pressure off of Love in his young career behind a good young OL and talented young receivers could be the perfect way to get Love's starting career going.

    It's no surprise he's heartbroken. He's spent his entire young career in Atlanta and it's a major life event for him to have his life and career suddenly upended. And yes, Milwaukee is widely seen as a less attractive destination than Atlanta. Like most players traded to Milwaukee, he'll get over it.

    I've been pleasantly surprised with how easy it is for the cord cutting NFL fan to still get all their content. A high range roof antenna is a must, at least for me. Perhaps those who live in a big city can get by with an indoor antenna. I have a 150 mile range antenna on my roof and can pick up NBC from Eau Claire in Wisconsin Rapids and FOX and CBS from Wausau. So that covers my Sunday Packer viewing as well as the other afternoon broadcast games, as well as SNF. I thought I'd be out of luck for MNF being on ESPN, but it turns out it's on ABC as well, so I get that free as well. The only viewing cost is Amazon Prime for TNF, which we owned well before Amazon bought the rights to TNF for Amazon shopping.

    This is a pretty major accusation. Not saying an untrue one, I have no idea one way or another, but a small market extending a $215M franchise record extension to a player with a known poor work ethic would be egregiously negligent.

    Yeah, there isn't much you can do other than this. He's also got the full NTC anyway. I suppose somewhere down the line 3 or 4 years from now, if he stays somewhat productive, I could see a deal where he goes to a big market club in a salary dump type situation where we pick up half the tab, if he's receptive to moving.
  18. adambr2
    Yelich's contract is probably 100 million or more of negative underwater value. I know the big market clubs have a lot of money, but that doesn't mean they're going to just eat our bad investment just for Josh Hader.

    I'm assuming we will take a WR today, but at this point I think expectations for said player should be tempered as far as 2022 goes. As great as Davante Adams is, he wasn't much of a contributor as a rookie. Same goes with Jordy Nelson. These guys often take years in this system. Amari Rodgers was a Day 2 last year and I frequently forget he's on the roster. Won't happen but I'd love to get a WR in the 2nd and land some out of nowhere trade for someone like Tyler Lockett with the 3rd.

    I can't understand how Nathan For You didn't get more attention or critical acclaim. It is so good.

    The Simpsons actually began in the 1980s. Wild how long that show has been around.

    The Rumble could be the best PPV of the year by far, but they ruined it years ago by guaranteeing the winner a shot at a championship title at Wrestlemania which eliminates all but about 4-5 entrants. There's an old saying in marketing that "predictability is the enemy of engagement", and when you know that 25 of the 30 entrants have no chance that increases the predictability. Can't really do anything about the leaks, that's the media doing their job. If you want to make money, bet on the favorite the morning of the event. I think one of the best ones was in the late 90's when the tide was starting to turn from WCW to WWE and they grabbed a couple of guys who were just released from WCW the week leading up to the Rumble. They didn't even have entrance music for the WCW guys. Other than the times the winner wins a vacated championship hasn't it always been that way? Yeah, it's been that way at least since '94. And you've always been able to nail who had an actual shot to win it down to 4 or 5 guys and who was just there to get their hands dirty for 3 or 4 minutes and then head back to the locker room.

    There isn't any right or wrong answer, it's just a matter of personal preference. There's many factors that go into it, with the two main ones probably being what you're willing to pay, and what kind of content you're looking for. Straight cable or a streaming type of live TV will work fine for some, others wanting to watch specific shows may only find them available on Netflix, Hulu, Paramount, Peacock, etc.

    Anyone else getting into Squid Game? I'm hooked.
