Burks is 6'3 235. His versatility is what I really like. He's like s swiss army knife and does everything really well too.

MacReady Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Since we officially pick no earlier than 25th overall, all positions (except for IOL because LOL) are an option. TE, WR, ILB all became valid options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad that Fred Warner was a popular name here leading up to the draft Edited December 30, 2019 by JBURGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see a 1/2 round WR to be able to play a healthy amount of snaps year 1, then another 5th round Trevor Davis gadget type.

I like his length, burst off the line, and strength. Would like to see more TFL's on the stat sheet though. Probably not making it that far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking prematurely at the rankings, seems like a solid year to trade down out of the late first and into the early 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 If I got to choose which position we draft in the first this year the rankings would be: IDL, CB, OT, ILB, TE, WR, RB, QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone keeps forgetting that OL tend to slip unless they're a can't miss prospect like Quinton Nelson. 45 minutes ago, JBURGE said: Yup.

If we get to the NFCC and lose, I'd be all for trading down into the early 2nd if we don't like who's sitting at 29 or 30; especially if we're keen on going OT with our first pick. I think at least 5 WR's go in the first though and we'll probably have to trade up from our current pick in the 2nd so trading down to trade up a bit later will probably need to happen so we have the capital to move up without submarining the rest of our draft. 4 minutes ago, Outpost31 said: If I got to choose which position we draft in the first this year the rankings would be: IDL, CB, OT, ILB, TE, WR, RB, QB. Move ILB and WR up a couple spots and I'm there with you. We may even need to trade up in the 1st to get that IDL if that's the route we were to go.

This surprises me. I would have expected ILB to be behind TE and WR. I haven't looked at any linebackers other than Isaiah Simmons and he'll be long gone. Dunno what else could be good value in the late 20s. If I'm spending a 1st on an ILB, that floor better be high. With how the WR contracts are starting to look for top guys, that 5th year option might be great before the CBA changes Edited December 30, 2019 by JBURGE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed at 369 on the Louisville website, but he reportedly was lower than that this year. It just seems like a recipe for a player to eat themselves out of the league. I think we've largely drafted our OL in that 305-315 range. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 GB's "type" of OL has pretty much been "the largest available people who fit the athletic profile" anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming this is by round and not by need I'm going: DL, Swing G/T, WR, ILB, QB, EDGE, RB. To me, as Rodgers ages getting a dominant OL becomes more and more important - both to take the pressure off him with the run and also to help with reduced mobility. I'm not as sanguine on Bulaga playing much longer so I want go get his replacement in the ranks sooner rather than later, while adding depth to G if needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
