Thanks for the list. This will help me follow the draft better today. I don't know much about the late round prospects.

I strongly feel we need an OT for depth. In an ideal world we don't want to move Jenkins around but other than Bakhtiari and Turner we don't have many other tackles for depth. Nijman is completely untested and I think he could do with some competition.

The two names that popped out for me is Stone Forsythe and Dan Moore. Both fits LaFleur's height/weight/speed requirements. They are not without flaws. Stone pass protection is much better than his run blocking whilst Moore hand technique is very sloppy, he struggles to keep his hands up.

I quite like to see us draft a star hybrid so Jabril Cox and Hasirildeen are the two names I've identified. I honestly don't think we need a pure linebacker at this stage in the draft as they are unlikely to improve upon Martin and Barnes.

I wouldn't mind another corner but there was a run of corners in the late 3rd so the pool may be depleted for now. However there are some intruiging talent that fits Gutes athleticism criteria. Robert Rochell, shoe thrower Marco Wilson and Shaun Wade. Wade got the makings of a good nicklebacker imo.

We do need a DT though but haven't done any research on that position.

Ryan Wood -   Matt LaFleur says he's spoken with Jordan Love about the situation: "I've told him there's a lot of noise out there, you can't focus on that. You've just got to focus on yourself. He's got to be the best version of him."

I'll be elated if Jordan Love pulls this stuff in 10 years.    That is a win for GB

If Love is good enough to be a diva at 36. We're extremely lucky. The QBs good enough to be divas at that age are the top of the spectrum when it comes to professional athletes. They either deteriorate enough that they're not worth keeping around at contract anymore, or it gets nasty.

Matt Schneidman -   From earlier today: In 2004 Aaron Rodgers tied Tee Martin's then-record for most consecutive completions in a college game. Now Martin is pumped to (hopefully) watch his son Amari Rodgers catch passes from the star QB, though he's relishing in his son being a Packer.

What happened to that French Canadian guy we drafted? I think his name was Jean-Claude du Tabernak.

Good ol’ Marc-Antoine Dequoy aka québécois Janis. I thought he might embrace that gunner role and has flashbacks of JJ terrorizing punt returners.

Wrong.

The Packers have learned their lesson after the second time.

Get a Super Bowl win on a rookie contract or before they are elite.
(Favre, Rodgers).

THEN TRADE THEM IMMEDIATELY FOR A MASSIVE HAUL OF DRAFT PICKS.

EVERY SINGLE YEAR THERE ARE 16 QUARTERBACKS GOOD ENOUGH TO WIN THE SUPER BOWL.

Allen, Newton, Roethlisberger, Jackson, Mayfield, Tannehill, Wentz, Watson, Carr, Mahomes, Prescott, Stafford, Wilson, Garropolo, Goff, Cousins, Brady, Ryan... All good enough to win a Super Bowl. 

That also leaves off Tua, who might get there.  Burrows, who might get there.  Herbert, who is there. 

There were 4 quarterbacks taken in the first round.  If half of them hit, that's 23/32 starting quarterbacks capable of winning a Super Bowl.

And I forgot to include Aaron Rodgers. 

And I forgot Nick Foles.  He's already won one. 

This myth that it's tough to find your QB anymore is false.  The only thing that's tough in the NFL anymore is getting the right cap hit for your QB.

Mahomes is literally the only QB in the league that I pay anywhere close to 12%. 

You pay your QB what they are worth and you will not win a Super Bowl.

So we either extend Love constantly less than he's worth, we give him a 10% of the salary cap commitment or we trade him before his rookie contract runs out (at the very least before his third contract).

Lol they aren't even going to trade a 38 year old who's begging for it.

Go back to your Madden franchise and do this.
