This would be why you keep a Randall Cobb in the room. Again… hate to say it but if Green Bay can’t trade back, I wouldn’t be shocked at all if Pierce is their guy at 28. Dude literally checks a ton of boxes. He only has a poor agility test… but it’s also inline with what Jordy did. If they can’t get a guy at 22 or trade up… Edited April 25, 2022 by Green19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

15412 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 As Wolf said to paraphrase, if you're not going to stay loyal to your board you've worked months/years on why do one? Of course you stay loyal to the board but often times, more so the later it gets, the more the choices equalize. You might have 5 guys sharing roughly the same rating on your board. Then you can consider position/need and weigh that in. At 53 we may have 1/2 dozen guys with pretty much equal value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need plays a part in your board, so you have to change things up based on who you've picked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After say drafting Pickett at 28? my point is at some point it’s diminishing returns. You might have guys tiers ahead… but I imagine they rank a bunch of guys so they understand their value. GB is unlikely to draft a QB this year, but… I imagine they still have these guys ranked and on the board to track. If you just blindly draft best, top tier players at every pick… you could literally draft 4 WRs in a row or 4 CBs etc. They clearly take their roster, positions, etc all into account. They invested in Love… they would be undercutting him and his value by say draft any QB in the first 2 rounds. So they might rank Corral or whoever a tier above, if they can’t trade out… they are likely drafting the next highest guy at a position that makes sense.

I have some prime swamp land to sell ya. It's pretty much common knowledge that it's BPA at an area of need. The drafting of Josh Jackson is all proof that should be needed that the Packers will take the top player on their board. Gutes commented that night that they had no plans to draft a second CB but when Jackson fell and no trade materialized, they drafted him. That story has been supported several times since then. Many like yourself refuse to believe that because you have bought into the whole pre-draft needs thing, but the Packers handle needs in FA and draft the best player on their board in the draft. It is one of the big reasons they have drafted a player like Aaron Rodgers and others and stay ahead of the curve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you can parse those words in many directions, but several others have said similar things about the paucity of top talent at the top of this draft He's saying what 32 GMs already know...

If NYG, HOU or SEA offer picks at the top of the 2nd - are you taking that deal ? If I could get an early SRP out of Jordan Love, I'd probably make that deal. I wouldn't be happy about it, but I'd do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Its why they lay out the board both vertically and horizontally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You exposed your lack of understanding of the process. There are tiers with board resets at the end of each day, that is never going to happen.
