I truly and honestly believe the Packers are planning on there not being a 2020 Football season. Which would make sense because the CDC has came out and said the 1st wave of COVID was at the tail end of flu season and we can expect the 2nd wave to be far worse than the 1st one. If that's the case, there certainly will not be a 2020 season of football and this draft ended up making sense. Does it though ? It makes the Love pick work a bit more as Rodgers is older. But looking ahead, you haven't drafted him (Love) any weapons and you haven't sorted out the problem of an ageing OL. And the defence is still a problem. A bad draft doesn't become a good draft because you miss a year. The likes of Bakh, Adams will be older as well as Rodgers and you haven't done anything to mitigate that. You've just got a RB we don't really need yet, a full back and some filler that probably wont be in the NFL in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 A panic-free, patient draft. C+ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet I guess I didn't think that it would change too much how we drafted, but maybe it did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddfather Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I'm a RN in Florida, and if I had to guess there won't be a full season if any of one. Not saying I'm an expert, but I've worked for my employer for 14 years and have never seen prep like they have done for this. Even with the numbers not being what people thought.. It is also logical that the colder fall and winter months would only see a spike. So over this crap. Just want things back to before.

Norse65 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 After this I no longer believe Mike Ditka was insane. I’d trade the works for Simmons or Young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siv Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 We’re strategizing. Gute expecting no season this year so we can take guys to develop now and fill these same holes in next years draft. Genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there's an entire offseason again next year before football season which includes another draft.

With presumably a randomized draft order. Even though they made the NFC championship game, in terms of rostered talent the Packers were not a top 4 organization.

Cakeshoppe Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 this draft is Gute threatening to turn the car around and drive home on Rodgers in the back seat imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 After a few years of the same thing, I am very much looking forward to change. I like fire. I like to watch it burn. The remaining glowing embers are my life's cigarette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you feel about all the countless hours you spend on your own personal pre-draft work only to have the 'experts' totally ignore it? Gotta be a little frustrating I would think. yep, not doing it anymore, I think I will be much happier around this time next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
