How did the packers do in the draft?

I wanted them to pick up brandon flowers, then we trdaded down for Jordy Nelson? I think KC had the best draft, also ended up w/ flowers coincidentally. So how did the packers do, and how did your team do?

How did the packers do in the draft?
I give them a B- because they got a few players that provide depth, but they didn't really wow me yet. We're just going to have to wait and see how some of the players pan out.
Reply:Well, the Packers definitely believe that Brett Favre is retired, and they sent him a message just in case he was reconsidering his situation when they picked Louisville quarterback Brian Brohm with the 58th overall pick in a trade with the Browns. Brohm slid this season even though he started the year as a potential top 10 quarterback. The Packers went for value, much like Ted Thompson did when he grabbed a sliding Aaron Rodgers a few years back. The Packers spend their first choice on Kansas State WR Jordy Nelson, who caught 122 passes last season. Nelson has track speed, but the Packers already have a lot of youth at this position. Young defenders Jeremy Thompson, an end from Wake Forest, and Patrick Lee, a cornerback from Auburn, are very athletic guys who figure to stick and compete on a very young defense.


Grade: C+
Reply:The Packers did ok, if picking up another young quarterback with no seasoning like Aaron Rodgers is good then they did good. The Brohm pick might come back to hurt them or it could push Rodgers to do more. As a Vikings fan I really hope it hurts them. But who cares because Jared Allen will throw both of them on their cans on the opening game on Monday night.
Reply:Packers: B-


My team the Bengals: C (screw Chad) lets hope those wide recievers play good.





It's hard to grade a draft because you never know! Although, I firmly believe the Chiefs had the best draft.... but IN 5 years you may look back and give them an F instead of an A
Reply:I've had my doubts about Ted Thompson but you can't argue with the results. Besides when it comes to draft classes you really don't know what you got until a few years done the road.
Reply:Very well actually They got some solid offensive people.
Reply:they did better than the falcons that is for sure
