Kampfgeist Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 2 minutes ago, CWood21 said: Don't get me wrong, I'm never mad about the Packers grabbing OL. But unless the Packers are rostering 10+ OL, the number crunch will be there at some point. You've got Walker, Jenkins, Myers, Morgan, and Tom as roster locks. Rhyan seems likely to get one spot, and you have to imagine at least one of Caleb Jones or Luke Tenuta are likely grabbing at least one of these OL spots. That puts us at 7 minimum. We are adding two more OL in the draft. It's going to be deep and spectacular and Love is going off for multiple MVP's. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddfather Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 1 minute ago, Kampfgeist said: My only criticism of the pick is that it's really a boring offseason to go to youtube and watch "highlights" of a OL. Not when it's in the next few seasons and you're seeing him blocking in the Love led super bowl run highlights 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packerraymond Posted April 26 Author Share Posted April 26 Fastest 10 yard split of any OL at the Combine. 98% 10 yard split. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is where I'm not sure. For two years they haven't been on the roster and nobody came poaching them from the practice squad. I just don't know if they are good enough to make the roster. If we don't draft 3 O-line, I'd rather grab a vet than trust Jones or Tenuta at this point. I notice you didn't mention Newman, which is good because I can't pay him 3 million to suck again.

beekay414 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 1 minute ago, CWood21 said: Movement skills aren't the issue. It's the alligator arms. They're pretty much hoping he's Zach Tom 2.0. He's basically at 33 inch arms. I don't think they'll be as big of a problem with his movement ability. Short arms are really only a problem if you're a stiff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Vince Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Never going to question Gute drafting OL. Other than blowing the Humphrey pick, he's been money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bay has made it a point to protect them by keeping them on the roster. I'd bet money at least one of them (if not both) are on Green Bay's 53 man roster come cutdown day.

Isherwood Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 well, he was my trade down target at OT, so I guess I can’t be too bothered by taking him at 25. He’s a good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamSamn Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 i think they must view him as a tackle to select him over Barton- hopefully he recreates Bulaga's rookie season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren't they practice squad guys? Also, seems odd we have those two since we don't draft guys over 6'5 and they are both 6'8, 6'9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleedforbucky Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Killed at the Senior Bowl also, which makes more sense as a Gutey pick. In Gutey I Trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind he has a 81+ wing, same as Fautanu who has 34in arms. Two inches more than Graham who has same arm length. Morgan has big mits too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
