I give them a C but it's more of a C-.

The WR with their first pick made me want to give them an F but they saved the day with at least drafting a CB with there 3rd pick and I do like the Brian Brohm pick as well.

Getting Brohm there was a steal.  I do disagree with picking a wide out first, but he could turn out to be another good one.

Considering how late they were picking in the first round, I think TT did well to get what he did. I'm not as convinced as some fans that the Packers needed to take a QB so high, but I'm confident TT knows what he's doing.

Hey what can I say, I'm an optomist so I give us a B. I think these picks are going to reap their rewards 2-3 years down the road. I know everyone is on a high from last year and think that we need a few good draft picks to win the Super Bowl next year, but I think TT is trying to build a franchise team like the 60's Packers, 70's Steelers, 90's Cowboys, 00's Patriots and 10's PACKERS! Personally I would rather have a couple average seasons and get to be that elite franchise rather than have one great year and decline. I say you put this poll out there in 3 years and see what everyone thinks then.

Jordy Nelson dominated a very good Big 12 this year

The Packers have needed and over 6 foot WR (that did not suck sorry Francies) for a long time.

Driver is gone after maybe one more year whether he wants to be or not. As usch TT secured a replacement the year before. (Ala Justin Harrell draft last year to replace Corey Williams this year)

I went and read a lot about Jordy Nelson and the more I read the more I like.

Brian Brohm is not just a steal he is insurance against Rodgers being brittle or wants an insane free agent contract.

Pat Lee's back ground reads exactly like Al Harris. In fact I tried to describe him somewhere else and I thought damn I am talking about Al Harris.

I gave the draft a B because I think TT got good players in return for little money.

The extra 4th rounder is huge considerign the talent that is falling in this draft.

Radovich from USC has ZBS writen all over him.

After checking out the wide out they drafted, and figuring they'll go Defense on day 2, I give them about a B-. All their picks were good solid athletes, and all could develop well. I don't give any of them question marks in the talent/skill category.  Give them a year to learn the system, and we've got some future starters all from round 2. -Aaron

I will give it a "B". I don't think it was all that bad. At first glance most would say "C" or "D" but after looking I say "B". It is hard to judge a first day though. It is like judging a book by it's cover. TT will make us proud tommorow.

OR

when the season starts and these guys are stars.

Gave them a "C".

I HATED the first pick. I'm sorry, this is nothing against Jordy Nelson, I am sure he's a fine player with great qualities, but this draft was WROUGHT with receivers of Nelson's talents, look at the receivers that went after him AND are still on the board, you're telling me this Nelson kid is definitively better than them??? I don't think so, they could have gotten this kid or one exactly like him in the thrd round. Meanwhile a kid who was on par in talent and draft grade and was in a position the Packers actually NEEDED went a couple of picks later, the kid I am speaking of is Carson, the TE from Notre Dame. The talent at TE is NOT as deep in this draft and the drop off after the top 2 or 3 is IMMENSE, whereas there are like 15 WR's that are on par with Nelson. Also factor in the fact that the Packers have FIVE quality WR's already, I mean in reality best case scenario Nelson beats out Martin for the #5 WR spot on the team next year and eventually works his way into the top 3 or 4 in a year or two and MAYBE becomes a starter 4 or 5 years from now, woop deee freakin doo, whereas we go into next with ONE proven TE and Carson looks to be a guy who can be an NFL TE. I'm sory bu
