This Farve situation is ridiculous. I have a feeling he wants to be traded, thinking he has only one or two years left and the Packers don't have the talent to win one more Super Bowl, and I don't blame him for feeling that way. Over the past two seasons, the Packers, who aren't short of cash, let all three of Favre's starting interior lineman walk to take more money elsewhere.
So Packers, do us all a favor and trade Farve, or if Farve is really pondering retirement, just do that. Somebody do something. But, either way ...
Farves on his way out soon. The Packers need a quarterback for the future (and according to scouts, Aaron Rodgers isn't ready for that role, and may never be).
ESPN draft whore Mel Kiper, who possesses one of the sleaziest hair-dos imaginable, has the Packers drafting AJ Hawk, a middle linebacker from The Ohio State University with the fifth pick. His latest mock draft's top-five goes;
1. Houston Texans - Reggis Bush, RB, USC
2. N.O. Saints - Mario Williams, DE, NCST
3. Tenn. Titans - Matt Leinart, QB, USC
4. New York Jets - D'Brickashaw Fergeson, T, Virg.
5. G.B. Packers - AJ Hawk, MLB, Ohio St
... news flash, Vince Young is missing from that board. The Vince Young who single-handedly defeated the unstoppable jugernaut that was USC. The amazing athlete and leader Vince Young who won Texas' first Red-River Shootout in seemingly hundreds of years. The Vince Young who might be the best player in this entire draft class.
Packers, please mix it up and draft Young over Hawk. You'd be fools not to draft Young when you'll need a quarterback sooner or later. He possesses ridiculous talent, similar to one Michael Vick (see, blur of a quarterback that ended Green Bay's streak of playoff wins at Lambeau).
I'm cranky and tired. If the Packers pass on Young, they'll be forced to watch him dominate the entire NFL for 10 years. Have fun with that.
