NFL Draft

[Psycho4Bud]

2 5(36) Jordy Nelson WR KANSAS STATE
From NY Jets
Nelson isn't a very sexy pick; he doesn't have great speed and isn't elusive. However, this kid knows how to play the game. He is a very good route-runner, has a wide-frame that allows him to catch the ball very well and shield defenders from the ball. He is a high-character player who is going to have a positive influence in the locker room once he establishes himself.

2 25(56) Brian Brohm QB LOUISVILLE
From Cleveland
Brian Brohm, like a lot of other young quarterbacks, can have a hard time beating pressure. He also needs to improve his decision-making, and he doesn't have great mobility and takes some big hits. On the flipside, he has excellent mechanics, puts great touch on his throws and is good at hitting his receivers in stride. In addition, he has good football smarts and reads defenses well.

2 29(60) Patrick Lee CB AUBURN
The argument can be made that Lee best fits in a Cover 2 scheme; he doesn't open his hips as well as some of the other corners in this class. However, he has enough athletic ability and speed to develop into an effective No. 2 for a team that plays mostly man coverage. In addition, there's a lot to like about his toughness, willingness to step up in run support and ability to contribute on special teams.

3 28(91) Jermichael Finley TE TEXAS
Although he plays with a mean streak, Finley's undersized and lacks great lower-body strength, so he isn't going to drive defenders off the ball. However, he has very good athletic ability for his size and the potential to develop into a crisp route runner. In addition, he plays faster than his timed speed suggests and he can work the seam.

4 3(102) Jeremy Thompson DE WAKE FOREST
From NY Jets
Thompson is not a great run-stopper due to a lack of size. He has the frame to get bigger, though, and he is relentless. He will improve as he gets bigger. Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila is getting up there in years, and the Packers are obviously building depth along the defensive line.

4 36(135) Josh Sitton OT CENTRAL FLORIDA
Sitton has excellent size but lacks ideal explosiveness and range, so he might be a better fit at guard.

5 15(150) Breno Giacomini OT LOUISVILLE
From Minnesota
Giacomini is a developmental prospect who needs to learn how to control his emotions. He needs to improve his punch, but has an excellent frame with long arms to ride edge rushers past the pocket.

7 2(209) Matt Flynn QB LSU
From St. Louis through Minnesota
He has smooth feet and has a relatively quick delivery. He shows excellent touch on intermediate throws, good poise and has adequate speed to create if nothing is open. But he lacks elite arm strength, will struggle making some NFL throws and tends to hold onto the ball too long.

7 10(217) Brett Swain WR SAN DIEGO STATE
From Cincinnati through St Louis
Swain is an experienced receiver with adequate size. He was a big-play threat in college, but is not fast enough to be a home run threat in the NFL. At best, he's a No. 4, possession receiver

I think the Packers did pretty good this year...with Favre gone they filled some gaps in the Q.B. position. Would have been nice to see another R.B. on the squad but what the hell.

Follow the link and post your team!:thumbsup:

Have a good one!:jointsmile:
