Depends what the level of "domestic violence," is.

We had a kid coming to Fresno State many years ago named Pisa Tinoisamoa who got popped for a "domestic violence," charge...it was a fist fight between him and his older brother where his brother was the aggressor. His dad and coach tried to explain there was nothing to it, it was very common in the Samoan culture for siblings to scrap...but a police cruiser happened to be driving by, saw it and arrested both.

We pulled the scholarship offer because of optics, kid ends up signing with Hawaii, is a model citizen there and ends up playing many years in the NFL without incident.

Not saying Wyatt situation is similar, but IF the Packers draft him, I have confidence they have done their due diligence and the risk is low.

I have to say, after having more time to look more at the draft choices for the early rounds, I'm not seeing a receiver that stands out as a must have.  We really do need to add some speed though.  Watkins is going to be our fastest receiver until or unless we draft/acquire someone faster later this year.  Then there's Cobb who's pretty much done but AR, you know.  Lazard is slow.  Who knows about Amari, but he wasn't drafted as a burner.  We could really use a TE too, although I'm not sure there are any worth a pick in the first round, let alone the second.

Can we let him take out his anger on the NFC North? Just sayin', that might be fun to watch... πŸ˜€

Wasn't it Ron Wolf who made the comment about Wayne Simmons, something like we're not looking to draft pussycats or something?  I don't remember, but Simmons had some issues and we drafted him anyway.  It was a good move, because he took his issues out on all of our opponents.  He brought some much-needed toughness. What happened to that guy?

My sentiments exactly! This isn't actually that great of a receiver draft.

My no-trade PFF Draft for the day... Unless you take the top-ranked player with every pick. you'll rarely if ever see an overall grade of A. I de-emphasized WR, taking Pierce in the 2nd. Watson was already off the board. I could have gone with Tolbert. Pierce was my choice. Overall, not too bad, I think...I missed out on Bo Melton and Velus Jones late...not sure I landed a decent kick returner...maybe with Weston or Taylor. A RB at #228 might have made more sense, too. I don't think Booker is on the board there in the 7th round.

I'll critique yours...feel free to do the same to mine...

Olave at 22...we could do a lot worse.

Raimann at 28 looks really good.

No problem with McBride at #53.

Winfrey's a great pick at #59.

I don't know enough about Domann to say whether that's a good pick. No safety or corner there? Where's your Edge rusher?

The other guys are depth...I get it...

I love the Araiza pick but:

1) he won't be there, and

2) it's already been made clear we have our punter.

Where, or who is your ace kick returner? I think we need to find one in this draft.
