He'll be ok once we overhaul the offensive line. O'Neil and Bradury are the only worthy starters. Your first rounder has been quiet this season. What is up with that? Hard to steal reps as a rookie from 25.5 sacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty obvious. Upside at a premium position. Can't have enough pass rushers. And you can play all three at the same time, which GB is doing some of right now. Look. Don't get me wrong. We all would have loved a more polished pick at #12, but GB went with a guy who has an enormous RAS score and crazy upside. Knowing full well it would take time for him to learn how to play EDGE. And...we are trying hard to remain patient with him. Drafting for pure need is not the way to draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just don't see as many 1st rounders outside of QB's standing on the sidelines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham, Lewis, and Tonyan have caught a combined 56 passes for 5 TD's in 2019. To be fair that was in a passing offense. That year GB didn’t have a RB get 19 total TDs. And have another RB also have a lot of rec TDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen a first round rookie offensive lineman get tossed around like Bradbury was Monday night since Tony Mandarich was a rookie. I think I'd rather have my first rounder on the bench learning than getting embarrassed like yours was on Monday night. If he's a worthy starter you are basing that solely on perceived upside. That is a risky proposition for a 24 year old rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the best hitting second baseman, when facing a left handed reliever, after the seventh inning, in the first game of a double-header. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I'm betting Charles Martin's body slam of Jim McMahon would have been voted pretty darn high on a poll of best Packers play of the 80s.

It's because you have a conglomerate of tool warehouses out in the Dakotas that wish they lived in the Twin Cities Metro. They try to be hardcore with their fandom and fanboy personas of Minnesota sports that they tarnish the reputation of the average Vikings fan. In other words, your fans in the Dakotas make you look like a bunch of wankers....to put it lightly...and Paul Allen fuels the fire...
