When the 2011 NFL Draft started many Packers fans had a variety of opinions on what the Packers needed and who they would take. Let’s be honest, the World Champion Packers don’t really have a glaring need, in-fact some people in NFL circles say they won the Super Bowl with their “JV Team” because of the 15 players (6...


Here are some musings I have heard. Yes, they are rumors, so take them as such. Now this is the only rumor thread I will do prior to the draft.

Cullen Jenkins: I was told that Ted Thompson would reach out to Jenkins agent when the lockout ends to discuss a deal that would be 3 years in length. The dollar figure I got was between...


Here is my Packers Mock version 7.0. This mock is based off information I obtained through various league sources mixed in with my own opinion. This will be my last Packers only mock for the 2011 NFL Draft.

I also used Shawn Zobel’s Draft Headquarters Draft Guide (it is the OFFICIAL Joe’s Locker Room draft guide for the...


This is my opinion, not based any concrete “inside information” passed a long my way, just my draft thoughts and what I think the Packers will and won’t do in free agency and the draft.

I don’t see Ted Thompson being active in free agency and that is the norm in Green Bay. As expected the Packers added a compensatory pick- a...


I was talking to a friend late Saturday/early Sunday and we were discussing MLB and how it has changed since when we were kids. For instance, video games were just starting to get popular when I was growing up, but the best baseball game I have ever played (to this day) was Baseball Stars. It was so far a head of it’s time and I still...

Packers GM Ted Thompson is known as a draft genius. He and his personnel department are at or near the top when it comes to scouting college players that are entered in that years NFL Draft. But there is a myth I would like to dispel when it comes to Thompson’s methodology, he doesn’t take the “Best Player Available”...


In the wake of the Ohio St. and Oregon violations, here are a couple of points I want to make regarding college athletes, the NCAA and the Universities.

I have been of the firm belief that ALL college athletes should be required to red-shirt their freshman year. Also, they would be mandated to take a media training course, and a money...


This is my opinion, not any “inside information” passed a long my way.

I don’t see Ted Thompson being active in free agency and that is the norm in Green Bay. I also think that Packers will add a compensatory pick- a 4th rounder- for Aaron Kampman and they will keep the 7th rounder they traded Jacksonville for Anthony...


The NFL Draft is less than two months away and I am doing my first NFL Mock draft. I didn’t anticipate any trades or free agent moves (should the NFL and NFLPA get a  new CBA deal done).  There are some surprises and things will change by the time I do my NFL  Mock Draft 2.0.
