CrazyJoeDavola Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Everyone and their dog is aware of the WR situation in GB. It seems everyone has Gb taking one or even two first round WR's this year so i am little over the WR talk. I decided to go anti WR and completely ignore the position for this mock. I am assuming no more moves from now until the draft and Gute will let the draft decide what other free agent additions he needs. so with no further ado please feel free to tear apart as you wish 22. Devonte Wyatt, IDL, Georgia - Probably not the highest priority but I couldn't pass on the value of the selection. Wyatt is my favorite interior guy available in the draft and when paired with KC could be a very disruptive tandem. Kind of a thunder and lightning on the interior d-line as Wyatt wins more with quickness compared to KC's power. 28. George Karlaftis, EDGE, Purdue - Fits the mold of the bigger EDGE players GB likes to bring in. Another value in my mind as I expect Karlaftis to be gone before this selection. A power rusher with great hands is something I find hard to pass. 53. Bernhard Raimann, OT, Central Michigan - Athletic and raw. Raimann is a raw developmental prospect but has the ability to contribute early especially given the track history of this staff. Gives GB options as Jenkins recovers from his injury and if things go well Raimann holds the spot and Jenkins returns to his LG spot. 59. Trey McBride, TE, Colorado State - McBride and Ferguson are my two favorite TE prospects in this draft. McBride is the more athletic player seemingly and maybe even more athletic than Tonyan. McBride is a very good receiver and is flexibility in where he lines up. He isn't a great blocker but does not shy away from it. Tonyan wasn't a great blocker when he first arrived either so hopefully Bahk can get it into McBride's ear like he did for Big Bob. 92. Troy Andersen, LB, Montana State - The Swiss Army Knife of the draft. i don't know if there is a position outside the down lineman that Andersen has not played while at MSU. Has only played two years of LB but shows good instincts and his time at QB I believe will help him in his transition. Offers more athleticism than Barnes and has special teams value as well. 132. Cordell Volson, OT, North Dakota State - Listed as a tackle is another versatile player. Has played all over the line at NDSU and like his fellow Bison Billy Turner he can play guard or tackle. Will offer great depth and could turn into a solid starter down the road. 140. Akayleb Evans, CB, Missouri - Big, long, tall, and physical. more of a zone guy than a man guy. Has somewhat poor ball skills/struggles locating the ball at times but is a very physical corner and plays well in run support 171. Reed Blankenship, S, Middle Tennessee - An improvement in the third safety spot. Can play down in the box some and offer that hybrid safety linebacker role. Another player with suspect ball skills but for the role I see him in that isn't a big deal. Tough, physical guy who tackles well. Another special teams contributor. 228. Jashaun Corbin, RB, Florida State - Versatile RB with some injury concerns. Offers competition for hill upon his return. One cut and go kind of guy who is tough to bring down. Good blocker and receiver who has some experience returning kicks although it was a while ago at this point. 249. Jeremiah Gemmel, LB, North Carolina - Experienced player with good instincts. Good lateral movement and flows well to the ball. Instincts serve him well on special teams which is where I see his biggest contribution coming.

packfanfb Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 This mock basically reflects the efforts by GB to address the WR position since drafting Adams. So in that regard it's very accurate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{Family Ghost} Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 This would be the first draft ever where a team came out of it with a higher average age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said do like this draft. But WR is too much a position of need now. Also with the ridiculous salary explosion think we'll be devoting more picks to this position going forward.

Packerraymond Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Two of your first 3 picks are almost as old as Kenny Clark. Good players, but I don't see the Packers being high on them, older players are never high on their board. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I know they are on the older side but I like the experienced player in hopes they can contribute a little earlier. It probably has no merit if broken down but it sounds good in my own head. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's odd, CWood told us today that age doesn't matter for TE Jelani Woods who is in the 24th year of his life was a hot commodity and would go mid 2nd round. Maybe he is just a hot commodity for everyone but the Packers. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starchisaga Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I LOVE THIS! And we’ll done. The team a a whole is what needs to be considered. Is there a need a receiver? Yes. But that may not be WR. A three TE set is creative. A three RB set (or these days even a 2 RB set) is creative. WR is a need but maybe not a PANIC. Donald Driver was a seventh round pick and Freeman was a third round pick. At TE, Chmura was a 6th round pick and Paul Coffman was undrafted. Most importantly they had ambition and commitment. Bring on the FOUR TE set with HUNGRY athletes! (That would confuse the S out of defenses). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEagle Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I like the no WR draft. This was my one shot at it (I realize some of these guys won't be available when I picked them): 22 OG Zion Johnson, Boston College 28 DT Devonte Wyatt, Georgia 53 EDGE David Ojabo, Michigan 59 LB Chad Muma, Wyoming 92 CB Zyon McCollum, Sam Houston State 132 OT Kellen Diesch, Arizona State 140 S Bryan Cook, Cincinnati 171 TE Daniel Bellinger, San Diego State 228 S Tycen Anderson, Toledo 249 DT Thomas Booker, Stanford 258 EDGE De'Shaan Dixon, Norfolk State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
