Barty Smith...now there was a great #12 pick in the draft.

What was amazing wasn't just that he was a number 12 overall pick. It was the fact that he was their only draft pick in the first 4 rounds that year.

in 1975, they didn't have their 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round picks because of the Hadl  trade and a trade for Jim Del Gaizo. They did trade Bob Brown to the Chargers  to get a different 3rd round pick (Will Harrell). 

In 1976, the didn't have 1st (Hadl trade), 2nd (Hadl trade), or 3rd (Bruce Van Dyke trade) round picks.

So the Packers went 3 years where they had 1 of their own draft picks. No wonder they sucked so badly from 1975-1980. Then Bart figured out how to go 8-8 and then got fired.
