I originally was going to go with Javon Walker. But more recently, for me, it was Lacy. He was everything we needed in a RB for that team. I loved that pick and really enjoyed watching Lacy, until he proved that our offensive linemen were faster than he was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He put the team on his back playing through injuries keeping playoff hopes alive when 12 went down. Cumulative injuries and mostly cumulative calories caught up to him but he was a great Packer while his star burned bright. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Lacy was the pick announced on draft day I was pumped because I thought he was the missing piece. He proved to be that somewhat, but things eventually caught up to him. Loved his brief stint. Since Lacy Watson is the most excited I have been for a pick. Largely influenced by his college of choice but the talent and traits were obvious as well.

Doubs alrady outperformed Walker in his rookie season and missed a quarter of the season. I would go with Jennings as a rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was who I was the most hyped for...as a rookie. I was really hyped for Walker. But even more for Lacy. When we drafted Jennings, I had no idea who he was. I knew who Walker and Lacy were coming out. All I knew about Jennings was that he went to a small school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I've been won over. Redeemer is legit and I'm excited to see his growth going forward. Now we need Doubs to go through Davante camp so he catch because he's talented too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily eating crow that I was wrong about him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackFan13 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Gutes best pick in 3 years. Not saying much though. 3 years too late on a talented wr early. I've been sky high on home from the start. Half you idiots wanted MVS back and claimed he was the same MVS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted nothing to do with Watson in the draft, mostly because of how raw he is/was coming out. That being said, he had a solid second half of the season and hopefully he keeps trending towards having the potential of being an Alpha WR. Right now, my biggest concern about him is his durability. He suffered like 4 different injuries between OTAs and Week 18 and availability is obvious important for any player. Between him and Doubs, it is looking like both of them can be good players, assuming they can stay on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
