Who else loves our team next year?

I'm really liking this draft and the way our team will shape up.

Rodgers
Lacy/Harris/Franklin
Nelson/Cobb/Jones/Boykin
Finley
Sherrod/draft pick?
Lang
EDS/draft pick?
Sitton
Bulaga

Pickett/Raji/Datone/Worthy/Neal
Matthews/Perry/Bishop/Hawk
Williams/Shields/Hayward/House/Bush
Burnett/McMillian?

That's a damn good lineup if you ask me. Obviously there are injuries and such but I like our team. We need Perry to play well and whoever the safety is next to Burnett.

idk, I think we finally will have a decent run game this year which is nice I just think that we have a lot of guys coming off of injury and Idk if they will be the same, what did we really do to improve against Colin Kaepernick running all over us again.

Ask me next January. The health and development of the young guys drafted over the last few years will be key. I don't see a lot in this draft that made the team that much better for next season, except for RB (which is huge, of course).

This is the most physical backfield we've had since I can remember.

We've been hearing about the team focusing on changing offensive mindsets and becoming more physical, so it's about time we see those changes put into action.

I'm still iffy on the secondary, offensive line, TE blocking game, but I'm certainly excited to see what each of these players has to bring.

I'm more concerned about the TE position. We have just about nothing behind Finley. We've also got huge ?'s everywhere.

Here's how it looks right now:

Rodgers/Coleman
Lacy/Harris/Franklin/Kuhn
Finley/Williams/Taylor/Quarless(still think he isn't coming back)
Nelson/Jones/Cobb/?Boykin/?Ross/?Cunningham
?Sherrod/?Newhouse/?Baktiari/?Tretter(packers.com lists him as a T)
Lang/?Baktiari/?Tretter
EDS/?Tretter
Sitton/?Barclay/?Tretter
?Bulaga/?Barclay/?Baktiari/?Tretter

Worthy/Daniels/Jones/Raji/Pickett/?Neal/?Boyd/?Wilson/?Jolly
CMIII/Perry/?Mozes/?Johnson/?Brad Jones/?Manning
Hawk/Bishop/Francois/Jones/Manning/?Lattimore
Hayward/Shields/House/?Slowpoke/?Bush/?Loyce Means/?Hyde
Burnett/McMillian/Jennings/Hyde/?Richardson

not in love with the skill positions. we lose two WRs and TE and don't replace them. two of those three weren't giant contributors but one was our go to guy for the last 3-4 years. TT didn't draft a WR last year so i was positive he would pull the trigger on one this year. hopefully none of those guys get hurt.

i love the roster every year though. can't wait to see Jones get on the field and just terrorize freeing up Matthews and Perry to bring the pain.

I love this team, but I especially love it if we can stay a lot healthier. IF guys like Bishop, Sherrod, and Bulaga come in ready to go we will be a much better team. Also, with the RB's TT has added we will have a much more balanced offense, which will only help Arod torch secondaries.

I was hoping we'd get Schwenke and Quessenberry over Bukhari (sp?) and Tretter, and I would've liked to see us get Patton in the 4th, but I guess I'm not opposed to them doubling up on RBs if this means Green and Starks are now gone and we just go with Harris, Lacy and Franklin as our backs (that's one hell of a rushing attack BTW, I surmise this means we'll be running the ball substantially more next year?). Now, I'm hoping our next 2 picks are Jefferson and Marcus Davis and I'll be completely satisfied.

OLB is going to be a massive need next year, especially if Perry or CMIII goes down. We are very weak at that position and did nothing. I'm starting to wonder if we're going to lean more towards a bigger 4-3 than a 3-4.

TE will be an even bigger need next year...
