2007 Draft, Round 1: Who do you want?

[wichmae]

I have changed my mind. If Lynch is gone then I want Darelle Revis or Reggie nelson.

I really like Meachem as well. I've always liked Lynch, but I'm okay with passing on him if they question his character or want to go after a RB in next year's stellar class. I've always liked Aaron Ross, though it sounds like Darrell Revis is more in our range around 16. I'm fine with Reggie Nelson, and TGJr is growing on me since talking myself into him a few days ago.

I sound indecisive, don't I? I think when it all comes down to it, I still probably prefer Lynch. But there are a lot of names I wouldn't mind at all. There's no one I really am vehemently against. Except Hall - if he were to fall I hope we let him keep falling.

Totally agree MIG. I still havent really made my mind up at all yet. Last year it was a no brainer for me in taking Hawk. This year defintly a lot of good candidates and I would be happy with a lot of them. I think the only 2 I would wanna stay away from are Jarrett (unless somehow we trade down and pick up those NE 1sts) or Olson(Just not really sold on him). And I think Hall would be a disaster, but lucky for us I think somehow hes going to go Top 12.

I didn't even consider Jarrett. He' so far off the radar at #16, he might as well be Zach Miller or something.

I think that this year's draft is going to feel a lot like the year that we drafted Vonnie Holliday (and should have drafted Randy Moss?). Holliday was supposed to be a top 10 pick and just kept falling. The Packers had traded up with the Dolphins targeting Shaun Williams, a DB from UCLA, but when Holliday was there, Ron Wolf told his staff in the draft room: "GET HIM ON THE PHONE! FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIM!" Nothing was wrong with him, it's just that the Carolina Panthers took Jason Peter from Nebraska instead (they chose ... poorly), so the Packers benefitted from other teams' bad choices.

I think that TT doesn't have anyone targeted at that spot. They'll build their draft board and then look to see who fell (Alan Branch from Michigan?) that should have been a Top 10 pick and either:

1) Scoop up that player, or
2) Trade down with someone else who realizes that a valuable player is there.

If it's me, and Branch is there, I try to trade down with New England and draft a WR and RB with their two 1st rounders. Either way ... I can't wait for the fireworks to begin this year. TT is going to make something happen ... but not by being flashy, but instead just building the draft board, sticking to it, and then listening to the offers as they come in.

[Ill-yasova]

Nelson or Meachem for me.

[little_cleo]

1st round: Reggie Nelson
2nd round: Kenny Irons

[mnstinks]

Trade down and add a pick or two.

Olsen is not worthy that high, Ginn has a lot of work to do to be a true NFL WR. Not sure about Lynch.

[SugarRay34]

1st round: Reggie Nelson
2nd round: Kenny Irons

Guess I wouldnt mind that. Not to sold on Kenny Irons, and Im in the group of if no Lynch no RB at all, just wait till next year. Nelson and whoever would basically make me happy

[IrishRainbow]

Lynch

[mnstinks]

1st round: Reggie Nelson
2nd round: Kenny Irons

I am hoping for Irons in the 2nd round as well.
