I'm smoking some baby back ribs and I've got some great looking venison steaks marinating. I'm going to feast and watch the chaos. Jerruh drafting alone should be worth the price of admission. And yah, hackers are gonna try to hack! Wings, wings, and more wings. Also a lot of beer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Wings are tasty, but I usually don't go out of my way to get them. Too much work for so little. Maybe I've just had crappy wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are talking supply and demand there are few players that do what Baun does and it does meet value at the 30th pick. I'm warming to him as an idea, a guy that can be our 4th rusher and be our second MLB. Quite a bit of positional diversity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green19 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Anyone hoping like me we use our 3rd to trade up in the 2nd? Given our recent 3rd round history I feel like it’s better used for trading up. gone are the days of getting Morgan Burnett, Jermichael Finely and James Jones. Just nothing but Burks, Fackrell and Adams . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more likely if the Packers move back from 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more likely if the Packers move back from 30. Who gives a crap? We've got one shot at this. 2021. That's it. We're not competing with Rodgers back up to 30+ million cap hit. And we're not competing the year after that when Rodgers will be 47 years old. This coming season is our last shot until Aaron's final Go Out On Top Referee/NFL Boost season. A flyer on a third round prospect who likely will not contribute year one is not what this team needs. This team needs immediate impact players immediately. If it were up to me, we would use every single pick we have to trade up as far as possible. Where this team is has zero need for 4t-7th round rookies right now.

Kampfgeist Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I know it would be unpopular on the board, but I wouldn't be surprised (and I'd be personally happy) if the Pack traded up in the 2nd for a top RB like Dobbins or Taylor. They've done a lot of work on Dobbins to make me think it's a distinct possibility and I don't think those guys last anywhere near #62. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF the prospects in that 25-40 range are all comparable, you're doing yourself a disservice by not moving down a small bit and acquiring more draft picks. More draft picks generally equals more chances for players to hit. You put all your eggs in one basket and it turns into a nothing burger, what do you have to show for it?

Mr. Fussnputz Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I'm kinda warming up to Taylor Swift in the second. Certainly would improve morale in the locker room. Oh, it's gonna be a looooong day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kampfgeist Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Outpost - do you think Tampa Bay or New Orleans or Steelers have any shot at a SuperBowl run?

That's the truth for most drafts and most picks, you end up with very little. The bust rate across a draft is so high. Go for the 'big pick' or go for 'multiple picks' each strategy is as risky as the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pittsburgh has a decent shot. Their lack of recent postseason experience will be the only thing holding them back. The Saints have a very strong shot. Very good shot.

Kampfgeist Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Who are some high draft picks that could be medically red-flagged or off the Packers board?: Tua(Body), Blacklock(Achilles), Jaylon Johnson (shoulders), Terrell Lewis (neck to toes). Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Rob Demovsky - For months, Mel Kiper has mocked a WR to the Packers at No. 30. That finally changed in his final mock draft. And no, it's not a QB. It's a ... tight end. //// Thats a pretty bad selection IMO. Wrong draft for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
