From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
It's not that hard to do, like the group we have right now the whole point of using a 2nd round pick on a WR every other season is so you don't have to pay one to much on a 2nd contract, same at every position except QB
So your strategy is to use your first two picks to draft every position except QB every other year so we can keep everyone on a rookie contract?
It's a solid strategy if there were only 4 positions on a football team and you batted 1.0000 every high draft pick.
the most expensive positions like WR, CB, pass rusher, will we ever get back what we just paid for Gary? or Alexander, did we get all we should have gotten for Clark? admittedly we got pretty good return from him, but we shouldn't be in this to make players rich, or the richest at there positions, we cave to contract demands, sometimes it's really painful, Bakhtiari is a good example.
Also worth pointing out that KC's 2017 was a meaningless game the final week of a season after Mahomes had sat the bench for the first 16 weeks of his rookie year. I wonder when their last was prior to that. I'm sure there are extenuating circumstances for others, but this one we know about off hand
Just came across this paragraph in an article about the 49ers on Fox Sports.com.
With a boatload of draft picks bolstered by compensatory picks due to free-agent defections and minority coaching and front-office hires, the 49ers could quickly upgrade their roster with a series of shrewd draft weekend maneuvers that result in a handful of blue-chip players and developmental prospects joining the squad.
So now the NFL is giving draft picks for not hiring Whites? WTF?!

I believe the rule is if your minority coach/front office person is hired as a head coach or GM elsewhere...you get a 3rd round comp pick.
