What will the Packers do with their 1st round pick ?

Satori"...going where the climate suits my clothes"

With the first round on tap for tonight, what will the Packers do with their pick at slot number 28 ?

TT has stayed with his first round pick ( Rodgers, Hawk, Harrell, Raji)

TT has traded back into the second round ( Jordy Nelson)

TT has traded from the 2nd round, back into the first round. ( Matthews)

But I don't believe he has traded up higher with his first rounder ( yet)

ChilliJonI hate the Vikings!

I think TT stays at 28. I think it's Shea or Nick Perry. But I have to be honest. After a week of pouring through mock up's of mock up's I'm an effing babbling mess. Shea Ingram, Courtney Whitney, Dontari Coples, Chandler Fleener, Mercilus Mayock.... everything's starting to blend together.

I'm now of the opinion NOTHING about tonight is going to go like the guru's have projected. I think the over/under on teams moving up or down is going to be around 8 and it's going to get chaotic.

So screw it, I'm going to get pretty deep into a bottle of Makers Mark and see how it plays out. When the smoke clears on Sunday I'm going to trust that TT has selected upgrades for Wynn, Walden, Wilson, Zombo, and Peprah and maybe finds a way to land Philip Blake at C while trying to fix the D.

Unless a #1 overall prospect drops to you in the 20's...Always Trade Down

TT's draft trade history would seem to indicate otherwise.

ain't nuthin wrong with straight up Grey Goose vodka. however, flavored vodka of any sort is just wrong. can't remember if it was here or somewhere else this discussion took place, but you can't get zima in the states anymore - went out of production in 2008. gotta go to Japan to get it if you want it now. have a nice drive! if I had to choose tho, I'd be sittin' at CJ's house with MM on the rocks.

Nor should he:

2005
Trades: The Packers traded a third-round pick (89th overall) to Carolina for two fourth-round selections (115 and 126). Green Bay then traded pick No. 126 to Philadelphia for three selections, No. 167, 175 and 245. Lastly, the Packers traded pick 175 to New England for picks 195 and 246.

Players: The Packers wound up with safety Marviel Underwood (115), cornerback Mike Hawkins (167), wideout Craig Bragg (195), linebacker Kurt Campbell (245) and guard William Whitticker (246). Carolina took defensive tackle Atiyyah Ellison (89), the Eagles drafted offensive tackle Todd Herremans, and the Patriots traded pick No. 175 for a pair of selections. One of those went for quarterback Matt Cassel.

Winner: Eagles// Patriots. Thompson struck out on every selection he had here, while New England and Philadelphia both did well.

His most aggressive "always trade down" year was this cavalcade of crap.

I think somebody special will fall to him at 28, so he'll stay there.

Same here. Watching the draft is like watching C-SPAN, but it's an excuse for sucking beers and cooking meat on a fire.

I think all talk-based programming should be moderated by my dream panel: Eric Dickerson, Barry Melrose and Dikembe Mutombo. That would fix everything.

This thread is about the Packers 1st round pick.

Clay Matthews, a trade up, just sayin'. Or does the "Always Trade Down" mantra only apply to the first round?

TT will put his ear up to the draft board when his time comes and listen to his draftboard because he massages that thing like I great violinist ... it will tell him what he needs to do.

BTW, sailing with the Captain at draft time ...

for what it is worth:

per @adamschefter on twitter: "Teams open to trading up if right player is there include Jacksonville, Buffalo, Philadelphia, San Diego, New England, Green Bay."

by "open to trading up" he means that they have made confirmed telephone calls

TT drafts for the value. I don't think there is anyone willing to trade much to move up to #28. There will be a group of players after the first six that will all have roughly the same value. I think we stay put and pick.

I think TT stays at #28. 10 minutes max. for teams in round one (including the Viqueens), correct. Just trying to estimate when the Packers will be making the pick if they stay at #28. Probably going to be around three and a half hours into the draft I would guess.

4/26/122:57 PM

Grave DiggerMember

The Packers do their due diligence in regards to trading up and down. I'm sure they have made calls gauging what kind of deals are out there at what spots and for what kind of compensation. I'm 100% sure Thompson is willing to move up or down if the price is right and the player is right. He probably put teams on notice that they would be willing to move up so that if a team is desperate to move down they get called. No surprise.

4/26/122:58 PM

Also I seem to remember them picking between 10pm and 10:30pm last year when they were picking 32nd. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on that.
