because it was...

 

I have plenty of confidence in our OL staff as they are top-3 in the league, but we had a chance to draft an impact player that would've fit Hafley's defense immediately.

There's 2 teams in the first right behind the Packers who have been rumored to be very high on him. Sounds like if you wanted him this is where you take him

I mean, if you're drafting a backup OT in the first round you're doing something wrong.  They clearly view him as a starting IOL.

Or a starting tackle...

I could see Morgan moving to RT in that scenario. I suspect they'll try Tom out at LT at some point.

Rob Demosky has a semi right now.

They still have that chance based on how this draft is unfolding.

Only explanation is DeJean’s leg injury is a cause for concern.

Everything about DeJean suggests Packers no brainer.

They must feel confident about Stokes too.

Only if you actually think he's a safety.  Like Halfley wants to play press-man and DeJean is much better with his eyes on the QB than in a trail position.  It's possible they had the discussion "can he play safety in this defense week 1" and decided "no."

Is he really gonna be a player at the next level?

I'm a bit confused here, Morgan could've been had at 41, but Indy was high on Love in that draft so Gutey moved up to make sure he got him. So I was quoting someone who had said someone thought Love was a reach....apples and oranges due to positional comparison...

Hmmm… maybe we scooped Dallas’ guy. They went OT also

Good, they shouldn't have traded with Detroit and I hope it haunts them forever

That makes sense I guess.

But doesn’t explain why so many other teams are passing.

Dallas Turner fell for medical reasons FWIW. 

Personally, I don't think DeJean fits Hafley's defense at all.
