Heck, lets face it, I wouldn't mind if the Packers waived all their draft picks and in exchange, got to pick 4 players from Georgia.

Get ready for more bonehead twelve year old ejections...LOL

Yeah, that thought crossed my mine. After seeing the replay of Walkers ejection, they probably could have called the same thing on Wyatt. I had to smile last night in watching that game, seemed like a lot of Georgia players had the same type of "cheat sheet" on their wrists as you see QB's wear. Hard to mock them, since they are National Champs and blew a team that beat Michigan off the field. But you do have to wonder just how smart and disciplined some of these guys are.

Bowers is a guy I like as much as Mayer, he isn't the exact same mold and definitely more of a Ebron/Pitts receiving purer type but dude is going to be special.

He is everything you hope Dalton Kincaid (this year's draft) becomes for you, but reality is Bowers is already that.

I think you've mentioned him too but Darnell Washington looks really promising to me too.

At the end of the day that team is probably going to have ~4 guys potentially go 1st round and still will bring back a team that's gonna be odds-on favorites to win a 3rd natty in a row. Just ridiculous how stacked they are at the moment.

Darnell is just not as big receiving threat like he should be BUT if his college team didn't have Bowers on it I fully expect his usage to get a 15%-25% bump honestly. His testing and how well he interviews could keep him solid in Rd.2 IMO but I started watching some his tape and when he is good he is amazing...but he seems very hot or cold at times in the effort or finishing of blocks to me - it isn't that he stopped or his guy beat him but he is a BIG guy that seems to fight just to the point of winning and not CLOSING contact or pancaking a guy sometimes.

I love a decent amount of their prospects, they'll be good.

Agreed. Much like last year and much like the top 3 or 4 programs, they are going to continue to fill their needs with 4 star prospects and transfer portal players. As the TCU coach alluded to after the game, they are in a whole other league.

Darnell Washington is a gem that needs a little more polishing, but potentially has a massive upside. From what I see, many are saying he will be a day 2 pick. If they miss out on Mayer or Kincaid, Washington wouldn't be a bad selection. I like the upside of Luke Musgrave too.

Good analysis. I am a firm believer and the Packers are the proof of it, you don't need to use first or even second round picks on the offensive line. Especially, when you already have Bahk, Jenkins and all the other O-lineman that the Packers have. However, I do think you need to keep refreshing it with guys like Braeden Daniels. Granted, Jenkins was a mid 2nd round pick and really worked out, but so have mid to late round picks for the Packers.

Just out of curiousity do you think Bahk will stay if Rodgers goes?

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

I think so and I think Bahk stays if Rodgers leaves. They are great friends, but I think they both realize that it will go on well after football, even if they aren't playing together.

Bakh's interview at lockers to me sounded like a man wanting back regardless.

 

[Magooch]

Maybe I'm projecting but I get the sense that Bakh's lengthy injury might've changed things up for him a bit. Like he feels he missed some time, still has a lot left in the tank. Ironically makes me think if he'd not been hurt and had been playing this whole time he'd probably be more likely to hang it up if/when Rodgers goes. Now as it stands I get the feeling he's feeling like maybe he's still got some missed time to make up for...

Maybe he will realize that he was getting paid like the top T in the league during that time he missed and offer to restructure his deal to somewhat reflect that.

I expect he will be restructured if Rodgers comes back and still maybe if he doesnt

And why wouldn't he? He's finally healthy again. He's easily got 2-4 years left in him.

Who Rodgers lots of reasons, if Bakh I don’t know why you’d ask someone saying he may still.

Mind you a restructure of his contract to some extent depending what it is needs no player approval - now an extension of course would always.

Why would he base his decision to play on whether Rodgers plays? That makes no sense. Not sure where that idea even comes from.

Don't mean to be snarky at all, brother, but your phraseology here is a bit... odd, if I may?

Do you know how many times Rodgers has confirmed a piece to coming back is who is or isn’t part of the team?

It is dumb to say it is all or nothing type thing but it is logical it is a factor.

He's not Rodgers. I've never seen where he has ever indicated anything of the sort in the past, so why the conjecture that he would turn down millions of dollars just because he might be blocking for a different QB?

They are good friends. Plenty of players (Not just Rodgers) have counted relationships to teammates as a factor in their decision-making process. Just because Bakhtiari hasn't ever specifically said as much doesn't mean we should assume it plays no role in his process.

And in whatever case...that's what (in part, at least) a forum is for: discussion. If you don't think there's any possibility that it's a factor in Bakhtiari's decision-making process personally then that's fine. And if you don't want to have any discussion on players unless the player themselves has specifically addressed said discussion, that's fine too, but no need to forum-police others.

And why should we assume it does play a role without any evidence to indicate as such? I highly, highly doubt the thought process for DB is, "Gee, I stand to make $16M next year, but if Rodgers retires, I think I'll pass on that." I mean, c'mon.

LOL. Okay, man. Whatever. You know best, right?

What the hell are you even talking about? You're the one who seems to be on his high horse playing "forum-police" here. "Your opinion has been noted." That's funny stuff there.
