I'm usually super anti running back in R1, but with us being in the bottom of the round and with how much we use our running backs and the fact the Etienne is also a really good receiver out of the backfield, I'd be down with him at pick 29. Kenneth Gainwell and Michael Carter are also good options in R3-4 if Etienne is gone at our R1 pick.

Feels like round 1 has to be the typical GB premium position OT, DL, CB Those next 4 picks.....2, 3, 4, 4 will be very important for filling some potential holes. FA will shape some of this for sure I think WR depends on what they do with Davante Adams. I think he's actually one of the few guys that goes and gets a 3rd contract. I know OTC is projecting a 4th for Blake Martinez and a 5th for Bryan Bulaga, but I think they're both going to be 4th round picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After not seeing him for a year hard to say. All the physical tools. The feet were so far away it's hard to even say how the hands were. Big opportunity in the preseason for him. Definitely wouldn't stop me from adding a dude though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Davante, yes, and Lazard had a good bump this year, but it essentially would force our hand to resign Davante or go on a wing and a prayer without him. I think Davante Adams is an extension candidate this offseason. And I think the salary comp is pretty clearly Julio Jones. It might lower the Packers' cap hit next year a little bit, but I don't think it drops much. It wouldn't be surprising to me if the Packers tried to ink Lazard to a cheap, short deal. If you extrapolate Lazard's numbers over 16 games, he would have finished with 53 receptions, 722 receiving yards, and 5 TD receptions. That would T-65th in receptions and 52nd in receiving yards. I really don't even have a contract comp here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking to 2022, Lazard, MVS, EQ, Funchess are all UFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go bold and say we go Etiene at 30, and trade up for R Moore/Toney in the mid second. There's probably less than a 1% chance we take a RB in the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazard is listed as an ERFA on both Spotrac and OTC, which means we have 2 more years of team control. If that's accurate, I thought he was a RFA.

Norm Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 The only thing worth ever talking about for this team is the draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAH1223 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 We should take a slot WR somewhere. CB and OT are big needs right now with the salary cap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas492 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 End of the first round is usually where anything and anyone can be taken. Trade back? Yes. Certainly in play. Trade up? We typically like and want to do that. Take a RB, ILB, G? Why not. I seem to recall that a lot of good running backs go at the end of round one or into round 2. Like I don't want a RB with the first pick. But if he is dynamic and I'm looking at him or the 4'th IDL that needs to develop, well then RB is looking better. I just hope we don't outsmart ourselves and take something crazy, like drafting a safety to play corner, just to name a recent example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
