If I was running the draft rooms in Chicago, Detroit and Minnesota...

The last few weeks at OBOD have been dedicated entirely to discussing the upcoming draft as it pertains to the Green Bay Packers.

Makes sense – this is a Packers’ blog, after all.

But there are three other teams in the NFC North, of course, and we’re going to kick off our draft week coverage – seriously, [...]

The third OBOD mock draft (aka,

Two mock drafts down, two more to go until draft day (15 days from now!!).

Since our last mock, three weeks ago, there have been a handful of trades/signings that have caused this third mock to change. But more than anything, the array of pro days and increased overall chatter amongst “insiders” (which we at OBOD are definitely not) [...]

Clifton's signing brings some stability, but changes still in store for o-line

Friday, 11:50 p.m.

For pretty much the entire afternoon today, it was sort of looking grim if you are a fan of the Green Bay Packers.

Green Bay’s starting left tackle, Chad Clifton, was visiting with the Washington Redskins. The ‘Skins need a left tackle and have an owner (Daniel Snyder) who loves to overpay for aging [...]

Breaking news: Clifton, shockingly, re-ups with Packers

Friday, 7:25 p.m. Lambeau Time

Well, cancel those plans for the search for “Green Bay’s Next Left Tackle.”

Chad Clifton, shockingly, will be back.

Within the past hour, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported via his Twitter page that Clifton has re-upped with the Packers. The deal is reportedly for three years and $20 million (exactly what Clifton was said to [...]

Good morning, OBOD readers!

While you were sleeping, the NFC North teams not named the Green Bay Packers were plenty busy.

Here’s a look at what the rest of the division has been up to in free agency so far (scroll down a bit for our most recent Packers update):
