I went with Jordy. He is just so big, good hands, and decent speed. I forgot he ran a 4.47 at the combine.

My gut keeps telling me Justin Harrell --- maybe its wishful thinking.

Pat Lee would be my second choice. A couple years ago I liked what I saw out of him when he stayed on the field, and if he stays healthy he should get some looks.

Jordy Nelson is gonna be a beast this year. Im still waiting for Driver to hit that age wall, but he keeps impressing me the last few years. No slow in production and was better then Jennings last year.

I can't help but lauph at people who think Harrell will be a break through player or even play this season. If he wasn't a #1 pick he would be out of the NFL by now. I also don't understand why Raji is starting Dt over Picket when Picket has been great and Raji has done nothing to start over Picket at DT. I know Picket is playing DE but Raji showed nothing last season. Everytime I see Raji it just reminds me we don't have Crabtree.

Pickett is big and strong and takes up a lot of space but that is really all his game brings.

Raji can both flat out overpower and dominate people and he can also turn on the speed to trick out and get by guys, his game is much more dynamic than Pickett's is.

We don't **** need Crabtree.

I voted for Harrell. I am glad Finley isn't even on this list...

The veterans Lang, Lee, Raji, J. Jones, and Chillar should take a step forward this season.

Note: Eventually Hawk's status from being a high first round pick should diminish and the playmaker Chillar is incorporated more on the inside. Plus on the outside it's good to see the Packers are intrigued by his explosiveness. I remember DB laughed at me last year for proposing in the preseason that they utilize him more than Kampmann outside due to Chillar's vastly superior speed. I thought we better should have addressed OLB in the draft and FA. But with what we have Chillar has to be considered not such a bad option.

With the rookies; Burnett, Wilson, and possibly Newhouse should contribute more than your average noob.

Note: It would behoove Capers to install more 4-3 against the savvier quarterbacks who only need a little time and comfort to pick you apart and aren't off-putted by the exotic looks of a 3-4. A 4-3 end is where Wilson could really benefit the team. He might be the closest thing we have to a prototype 4-3 DE who brings quickness, strength, and moves on a pass rush.

I didn't even realize Harrell was still on the team.
