FAH1223 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 3 hours ago, vegas492 said: 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably but he would be a younger, maybe faster version of A Jones. Depends a little on how things play out with Rogers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Barnett - #29 - 2003 Recent closest: Kenny Clark - #27 - 2016 Nick Perry - #28 - 2012 Damarious Randall - #30 - 2015 Didn’t we pass on TJ Watt before #29?

Traded down to pick 33 and picked up the first pick on Day 3 which we blew on Vince Biegel when Eddie Jackson, Tarik Cohen, Montae Nicholson, and Deatrich Wise were still on the board...

Not trying to take a dig on you here, but is this being said in hindsight? I remember there were A LOT of people pretty excited about that Biegel pick at the time it was made.

Don't think folks are that upset about Beigel one way or another, everybody is upset about passing on TJ Watt who was sitting there for the Packers. Trading down for any extra pick with him sitting there was a very bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were lots of questions as to what kind of fit he would be, which proved to be his downfall here. Honestly, I do think we shouldn't have given up on him so quickly...

Depends a little on how things play out with Rogers. I mean, I'm all for getting similar production that Aaron Jones has given us the past 2 years for a reduced price, but you don't draft a RB on Day 1. Period. It's OT or defense if you're not drafting a QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Packers didn't draft AJ Dillon in the 2nd round last year, I would probably tend to be agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather go RB in rounds 4-7, due to Dillon being on the roster and where he was drafted. Point is, when you are at the end of the first round and there is a difference maker there, you kind of take him even if it is not a "premium" position.
