Yes, the Packers had to play a few games a year in Milwaukee (Brewers baseball County Stadium) during the dark ages. They played their last game there in 1994 where Favre beat his former team the Falcons. Since moving everything back to Lambeau, which was the correct move, the Gold package fans from Milwaukee get two regular season and usually a preseason game. It is a 2 hour drive and more with game traffic and less sober drivers. The late games increase the issues.

Also - depending on how the coaches feel about Fautanu’s ability to play either tackle, Cook or Anderson can focus on playing RT and the LT contingency can be Fautanu going over there, basically making your starting RT the swing T.

I'm coming from a point that Clifford does not have a ton of upside as an NFL quarterback.

I think the team is pretty high on Dylan Cook. Spencer Anderson might be able to do it on a short term basis too.

So JD Bertrand, Nathaniel Watson, Tommy Eichenberg, Jaylan Ford and Marist Liufau are not quality players at the LB spot and were not even worth drafting? Watson was amazing at times on Miss State and Bertrand could be a really solid pro. As for 'round grades', that is great but really it all depends on the depth of the group, just because a guy falls to the 2nd when he should have been a 1st rounder does that mean he has a 2nd round grade? There can be multiple 1st round grades but only a certain number get selected there. And really it is all about depth at the position in general and team needs of course, that can make guys fall or rise. Granted Jack Campbell I should have included him on that list of productive LBs last year, but still it is a sad group but sure it is only one year. Herbig I would not include because he is a 3/4 OLB in my book. Is funny to say James Pearce is this amazing player when few even knew the guy before last year and Dallas Turner is some dud or something. Turner was elite as a true freshman on Alabama, James Pearce had one good year last year being his true sophomore year and that disregards Turner having three solid seasons on an elite program like Bama? Sure maybe Turner will not be a good pro by my bet is he does great in that Flores system because he is so versatile as an athlete and does quite well. Pearce a lot of that is projection, odd to call him this finished product after one good year and Dallas Turner is a project after three strong years at a top flight program. Pearce was not known especially at the start of last year, teams did not prepare for him, now they will every team he faces. We will see how he looks this year but he is far from being absolutely complete and Turner is this work in progress. Still saying the 2025 defensive class is "100x" better is totally absurd. The only way the is true is if basically all the defenders in that 2024 class never play and no one is productive and obviously that will not happen. It is not like the Vikings defensive draft picks in 2022 where they selected Lewis Cine, Andrew booth and Brian Asamoah and basically none of them play any legit snaps and have produced much of anything at all in the last two years. That is a historically bad defensive draft group all selected by the same team all within the first three rounds. That is what you call historically bad because it just straight up is to this point and most likely two of those guys will be cut before the start of the season unless someone greatly improves.

3Down Geno Smith

Sanders, Beck, and Milroe would be my bets to be the top QBs when all is said and done. Ewers will be up there because he has his fans for some reason. Klubnik is my sleeper.

I forgot that Manny Wilkins can't throw.

The people from Fanatics best stay away from Marvin Harrison Sr.'s sports bar.

Why? I’m genuinely asking since I’m not from the US and I guess there’s stuff I’m missing. Why is Milwaukee different from any other city with an NFL team? Say Chicago or Boston, they get late games and MNF/TNF too. EDIT or is this more about people from GB going to Milwaukee and then needing to do a long drive back home after a late game?
