Just a heads up, You are one of “the few” btw
Oh, does my talking about the game ruin your lust for drama. I'm sorry I don't want to talk about crying and betas and golf carts. Is your post one of guilt?

Did not intend to trigger you, just wanted to give you a heads up. Not trying to start an argument.

game day chats are always emotion filled, thats the way most are, thats just how most fans become, specially bad when losing.
I've just never been able to type fast enough or able to keep a eye on the game and the other on where I'am typing, so I just concentrate on the game. :rotf:

I'm sorry you think truth is triggered. I doubt even you believe your last sentence there.

The fact BG offered a 2nd round pick makes me question if he is our long term GM.
It didn't seem to be a terrible idea to trade for Claypool at the time Gutekunst supposedly offered a pick to acquire him. In hindsight the Packers got lucky the Steelers traded him to Chicago.
Reading through the 2022 NFL Cheesecurds thread, most on this forum were absolutely relieved we didn't execute that trade.

At the time it was absolutely seen as an overspend.

Was definitely against Claypool, but I was excited about maybe adding DJ Moore. Could have fit in his salary ok in the interim, but would have hurt long term bad and cost us a real nice draft pick or two.

Holy hell has twitter ever started to suck. Following GB players is why I joined in the first place long ago then we got the golden era of live practice notes.

Gameday its always been a huge enhancement, the convo better than the Aikman/Buck blathering; it sees things you miss (injuries, personnel shifts, etc...)

Between so many quitting and the firehose of nonsense, yesterday it wasn't really useable. Do any of y'all know of a good alternative for live gameday chat? Maybe a good discord group? Threads may be viable for news, but there is no point in opening it during a game even following a lot of packers related stuff.
Losing brings out the worst in all of us, I rarely ever post in game chats, but I lurk and read at times, when where winning there are fun comments, when were losing it's pitchfork alley, just always seemed that way to me, hopefully we start winning again. :aok:

At this point, there isn't a player on this roster that I would not at least entertain an offer for. The more high round picks that we have, the sooner this ship is going to get back on the right track. Assuming that our GM doesn't miss on a majority of those picks.

why would we dump the highest drafted WR taken in 30 years, or anyone really? we have built a pretty good roster, lets not let poor coaching, injury, and a couple weak positions dissolve the team, I don't see any of these recent draft picks as bust or better then the slot we used to get them at this point.

I’d take a 2 for Watson. It would be a very high two. Watson has been injury prone and has a limited route tree. I’m also fine with letting him develop, but ya, I’d take a high 2.

Surprised this is the 2nd time we’ve heard about someone asking about Watson.

Agree everyone has a price. But he has a ton of value to us. Got him dirt cheap for 2 1/2 years plus franchise control. We got a young developing QB who has some report with him. But that price is probably like two firsts for me. Doubting anyone would ever even consider that, but i don’t see a reason to trade him for any less.

Claypool was actually a pretty decent receiver his first two seasons in Pittsburgh. At that point I wouldn't have considered a second rounder to be too steep of a price to acquire him.

Why would the 0-5 Panthers be interested in being buyers at the trade deadline?

Because having a go to receiver for a young QB is crucial.

True, but they don't have to trade for Watson to achieve that. They can just select Marvin Harrison Jr. in next year's draft.

Especially as it's still a huge question mark if Watson will ever develop into an elite WR.

I believe Chicago owns their R1 pick next year. The "can't miss" WRs will be long gone by the time pick 33 is called.

If they only they had a first round draft pick

first thought that entered my mind, why would a winless team give up a high pick when they'll have a chance to draft a higher valued rookie next draft.

almost anything besides a first and a 3rd would be a insult to us, to Guty, Watson showed enough last year to warrant slot value to me, and every thing he doesn't do well is teachable, that he was considered raw is why he was available at slot 34, he was considered not as ready as those who went earlier.

if healthy all last season Watson is a 1200 yard plus receiver.

so then you expect Carolina to win the owl? did I miss something here? :lol:

safe to say Carolina will pick shortly after the Minny's of the Midway :lol: so there should be a tier one receiver available to them. :idn:
