Pack Pick?

With the 23rd pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers select...........

OT and OLB are the biggest needs. After singing the tackle twins this off season, it buys they another year. My gut is telling me TT will go for the best available OLB in the first, then draft an OT in round 2. TT will always take the best available player, so if one of the stud OT's drops in his lap he will go for it.

My best guess........OLB Sergio Kindle from Texas. 50/50 he is there at theat time. Good against the run and can rush the passer. Made approximately 55 plays in the backfield last season, which is insane.

What's your guess?

Pack are kind of set if you ask me. I could really care less who they get. TT does a great job for the most part. Their O-line had some improvement last year. Only thing that I wanna see is Rodgers retire in 12 years and Favre to come back and play for 1 more year after Rodger leaves!!!

So True!!!!! Hopefully Rogers gets better now that he has one playoff game under his belt.

I think they go OT unless the top guys are gone. If Earl Thomas slides that far, which I think would be a miracle, he's the guy. Iupati could be the guy, but I don't think he makes it that far.

My guess is either the Davis(OT) kid from Rutgers if he falls or Brown(OT) from USC.

Really surprised Bulaga was there, as he was projected around 12/13 according to the mock's I saw. Hopefully they can get a good pass rushing OLB in the 2nd!!!!!

I think the Pack was given a "gift" with Bauluga being there... didn't see that coming. I don't think he will be a pro bowler, but a 10-12 year solution at tackle is sure nice to have... anything has go to be better than what they had last year.

Well living in Iowa and being in a household where the wife is a Iowa season ticket holder and me being an Iowa State season ticket holder I have seen Bulaga for a few years.

Things about him. Would picture him at guard more than tackle. Also there are some lingering issues about his health that are a little concerning. He sat out the 1st 4 games last season due to an undisclosed ailment which was thyroid or something odd along those lines.

If he can avoid any major problems like that he will be a solid starter.

I think that TJ Lang is a better prospect to stick in when the Packers get into a bind at left tackle. He may see some time behind Tausher or shoring up the guard position, but I think that he'll mostly see mop-up time. Linemen are just like any other position, only the rare players are able to start and contribute effectively in their first year.

Quick Draft recap of the first three rounds:

Round/Pick

1) Brian Bulaga - OT/Iowa - Clifton's successor at LT

2) Mike Neal - DE/Purdue - Inside Pass Rusher

3) Morgan Burnett - S/Georgia Tech - Will compete with Bigby for the starting Safety Spot

No 4th round pick this year (I believe used to trade up for Burnett), and typically rounds 5-7 are either projects/backups, character issues, or special teams guys.

Dissapointed we didn't get another OLB to aid in the pass rush, however Neal is supposed to help with that on the interior, plus add depth in case Jolly is suspended, plus Jenkins is a free agent after this year. TT traded up for Burnett in the 3rd if that tells you anything, supposedly one of the most athletic safeties with good ball hawking skills (14 INT's in 2 years).

I saw that the Patriots just let Adalius Thomas go. It sounds like he'd like to play with Rex Ryan and the Jets again, per ESPN, but they've already got a full crew of outside linebackers. Wouldn't this just be a great opportunity for Ted Thompson to get off his hump and bring in an Andre Rison type that may not be the perfect moral character but could be the difference between winning the Super Bowl and getting knocked out in the playoffs?

I like the Packer's picks this season, but don't think that this class will be as strong as Thompson's 2009 or 2008 picks, but not as terrible as 2007 either!

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
