No, I'm not talking about good clean choir boys because thats a myth. (See: Quarless, Andrew, Shields, Sam).

What I mean is this. I feel there are characteristics that TT looks at when he drafts. I wonder if, through these characteristics, we can make a list of potential Packers. Similary, we can eliminate guys.

These are the characteristics I feel TT looks at to narrow down the field:

1). Size - he rarely, if ever, draft someone undersized

2). Love for football - everyone he drafts really loves the game

3). Versatile - WRs who can play the X Y and Z positions, guys who can play C or G, guys who can help on ST etc

4).Production - I could be wrong here, but I feel TT looks at production, than say combine numbers. For instance, Jordy Nelson put up huge numbers at Kansas State.


I was hoping we could use these characteristics (as well as others you guys can think of) to develop a list of potential guys we could take (in any round), and eliminate guys we wont take.

For instance, Clint Boiling seems like a guy who we would take, and would be available. On the other hand, as throbbing as my erection is for J Baldwin, I would be totally stun if we took him. (Bitches at teammates, takes plays off, lack of production).

What do you guys think?

I think he's got some flexibility on all those points except 2. If TT thinks you don't love to compete, you are probably off his board. Could be wrong, though.

TT uses methods you cannot even comprehend.

Jedi mind tricks IMO.

Thompson and his scouts really look at how players interact with teammates.

I try to start a legit thread and this is what happens.

My comment was fo' cereal, holmes.

I heard that even Stephen Hawking was confused by the complex formulas and algorithms TT uses to select players in the draft.

Dammit, I was going to post the youtube clip of Peter Griffin scientist scene where he's using all these advanced techniques to find the answer to 2+2 but I cannot find it
