Les Punting Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 15 hours ago, craig said: Your fundamental point that it will be existing personnel that dominates the targets is sound; with the implication that posters being prioritized on WR/TE draft picks are perhaps naive. The recent history of notable drafted WRs in GB says otherwise. Jones(80/47), Nelson(54/33), Cobb(31/25), Adams(66/38) even MVS(73/38) were well-targeted as rookies. All of them, especially Cobb, were drafted into more talented WR rooms than GBs current group. Despite the Watkins acquisition, GB will almost certainly be making a significant add at WR. He'll land in a situation which couldn't be more ripe for immediate contribution. He likely jump right near the top of the target list. Someone like Burks or Pickens gets (75/55) and probably ends up the nominal WR1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You kidding me? That kid screams Ravens. They love big run plugs. If he get's past MN he's a Raven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was Lancaster slow I would agree with you. 40 time is a useless stat for a nose tackle, he won't run 40 yards on a single play in his professional career.

He's going in the first round. There's enough Planet Theory guys in the NFL right now that he'll go in the first round somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not falling. I think he's going higher then I think you're expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packerraymond Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 If you draft Jordan Davis and he is a 2 down run plug, that's an indictment on your coaching staff and not your scouting department IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's enough Planet Theory guys in the NFL right now that he'll go in the first round somewhere. So much of it depends on if a team thinks he can be a 3 down player and be part of the pass rush. He is not Vita Via, but if some team sees him as a potential Dexter Lawrence type, he has a chance to go in the second half of round one. If not, what really separates him from other run plug only, day 3 Planet types like Slaton from last year. This time last year Barmore was seen as a 1st round lock by most and being mocked in the teens often and he had some pass rush to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a different memory of how Barnore was being talked about last year than I do. The way I remember it, most in here thought spending GB's RD1 on him would be a reach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those thread are locked now but go back to last year's draft threads and type Barmore in the search. Barmore was very much a player on many peoples crush list here and the talk was mostly that the Packers would get a shot at him without trading up.

St Vince Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Hope we can grab one of those Georgia boys in the first two rounds. Edited April 17, 2022 by St Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
