n8ghee Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I got a real strong gut feeling after watching Jace Sternberger (spelling?) tape that he could be a packer target. Sounds like the type of seam guy MLF talks about liking at TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altho...I could get on board with a Burns selection. Porque no los dos? Picking whatever edge at 12 and then Polite if he is there at 30 isn't completely indefensible. Like the situation at edge is such that they probably do want to double dip and quality pass rushers are pretty much always high picks these days.

fattlipp Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I wouldn't mind Oliver at 12, a TE at 30 and Simmons at 44. I think Oliver/Clark/Simmons means we have a top 10 D for the next 8 years. Mix Daniels in there and wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Schrager – NFL Network No. 12: Devin White, Inside Linebacker – LSU No. 30: Marquise Brown, Wide Receiver – Oklahoma Yuck. Unless we're adding 2 HIGH END edge rushers in UFA, I want nothing to do with White at 12. I like Brown, but this is a nightmare first round unless we throw 28-30+ million a year at a couple Edge guys in UFA. Brad Kelly – The Draft Network No. 12: Brian Burns, Edge – Florida St. No. 30: Irv Smith Jr., Tight End – Alabama Don't hate this one. Burns has grown on my after gaining 15 lbs and keeping his speed at the combine. Don't love Smith in the first now that we know he's a small midget of a TE. Would much prefer him at #44 if he was the selection. Will Brinson – CBS Sports No. 12: Ed Oliver, Defensive Tackle – Houston No. 30: Pick traded to the Steelers for Antonio Brown I'd be pissed about the compensation but this would probably be my favorite of the bunch. I'd drool over the possibility of Brown, Adams and Rodgers on the same offense. I think our offense is a lot worse off than a lot of folks though. Mel Kiper Jr. – ESPN No. 12: Marquise Brown, Wide Receiver – Oklahoma No. 30: Devin Bush, Inside Linebacker – Michigan Yuck, to the 1000th extreme. Similar to the first one. Unless we're all of our cap space on a pair of edge rushers I hate the idea of addressing these 2 positions in the first. I love Bush but he alone isn't even slightly helping our current defense. Chad Reuter – NFL.com No. 12: Jachai Polite, Edge – Florida No. 30: Irv Smith Jr., Tight End – Iowa Like the positions, don't love the players. If #30 was indeed one of the Iowa TEs (like it states), I'd like it a lot more. Todd McShay – ESPN No. 12: Devin White, Inside Linebacker – LSU No. 30: Oshane Ximines, Edge – Old Dominion Yuck. Feel like Ximines is a large reach there and I don't love any draft that has White at #12 unless we spend an unprecedented amount of money on UFA edge rushers.

You're drafting 1 DL in the top 3 rounds max. well, Simmons wont be ready right away and allows you to let Daniels walk next year and spend that 10m somewhere else. and edge wont be as important when you can get pressure with 3 or 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 2 top 5-15 talents in a lot of drafts. Next years IDL class isn't going to hold a candle to this year's and Daniels time as a Packer is coming to an end sooner rather than later. Probably not ideal for next year but that's a ton of value for a DC who loves his IDL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it's in the second round, I want nothing to do with Brown. Sure Brown is an inch shorter than Cobb, he's also a half football field faster and a much better route runner.

Eh, GB has been pretty strict on WRs. The only WR they broke for was Cobb and that was after he fell a full round from where people expected him to go. Other than that it's no short guys.

Probably could have said exactly the same thing last year when we drafted Cole though. The idea that Green Bay refuses to make exceptions to their "type" isn't true. Sure, there are body types and athletic profiles they prefer but it's obviously not their end all be all. We've also got a new GM who has one draft under his belt so it's hard telling if he's going to follow exactly the same guidelines as Thompson.

Fair point. The dip and burst ability in and of itself is the impressive trait on display here. Good stuff to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
