NFL Draft Fever!

What a day for Armchair General Managers and owners of NFL Teams.  It is a day for all fans of NFL Football to be optimistic about our teams future.  I now feel like my beloved Packers have all of the tools to put the Lombardi Trophy (Super Bowl Trophy) back where it belongs.  How do you think your team did?  Weigh in with your comments after you read about the Packers draft below taken from the Packers web site. 

 

1-16DT Justin Harrell
Tennessee
6'4" - 310 lbs.
Harrell was primed for a banner senior campaign, but in the second game, he suffered an arm injury. Tennessee doctors ruled Harrell lost for the season and scheduled surgery, but the gritty veteran postponed the procedure one more week to step out on the field with the starting unit for a crucial match-up vs. Florida.

2-47To NY Jets along with No. 235 for Nos. 63, 89, 191
2-63RB Brandon Jackson
Nebraska
5'10" - 212 lbs.
Audio/Video
An All-Big Twelve Conference first-team selection in 2006 by the Associated Press, Jackson gained 1,459 all-purpose yards, ranking third in the Big 12 with an average of 104.21 yards per game.
(from NY Jets with Nos. 89 & 191 for Nos. 47 & 235)
3-78WR James Jones
San Jose State
6'2" - 199 lbs.
An All-WAC second-team selection in 2006, Jones was named the team's MVP, as he started all year at split end. He led the team and ranked 27th in the nation with a career-high 70 receptions for 893 yards (12.8 avg) and 10 touchdowns.
3-89S Aaron Rouse
Virginia Tech
6'4" - 223 lbs.
Rouse played in all thirteen games, starting ten contests at the "Rover" position. He ranked third on the team with 57 tackles (23 solos), including two stops for losses of 4 yards.
