Bulaga as a 10-15 pick would have been good for anyone, he's ready to go from day 1 and will be a solid player for 10 years. I just didn't think he had top 5 talent, and that the reason the Chiefs would pick him was because he would be a guy who could handle a big pay cheque and still show up and play hard. For the Packers to get him at 23 looks like one of the best value picks of the first round.

Have to agree and thats not the GB fan coming out in me either. Almost all the mocks that i put any creed into had him going top 15 latest. At 23 he is a steal, and again because of his pedigree is very unlikely to become anything less than a solid starter for many years sans injuries.
