gopackgo27 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 2018 NFL Mock Draft Re-Sign S Morgan Burnett DT Quinton Dial Free Agency TE Tyler Eifert OG Jack Mewhort DL Jay Bromley 2018 NFL DRAFT Round 1- LB Tremaine Edmunds Va Tech Fit with GB: Pettine will use him in various roles; inside, outside, you name it. Dude will be freakin 19 years old on Draft day, love the upside. Round 2- CB Jaire Alexander Louisville Fit with GB: Day 1 starter opposite Kevin King with Randall in the slot. Physical, press CB, can run, has all of the tools necessary to be a starting caliber corner. Added bonus is that he can return punts as well. *Trade up, give up 2 5ths for late 4th rd pick. Round 3- DL Rasheem Green USC Fit with GB: Has the raw untapped potential to be an All-Pro disruptive force, just really, really raw. Would love to see what Pettine/Graham could mold him into. Worth the shot at this point in the Draft, pure upside dart throw. Fits into the DL rotation, gives another inside pass rush presence along with Daniels & the sack master Kenny Clark. Round 3- OT Tyrell Crosby Oregon Fit with GB: Highest rated pass blocking grade in the PAC 12 according to PFF, FWIW. Insurance for Bulaga, who will almost certainly miss the beginning of the season. Pretty obvious Spriggs isn't reliable at this point but even so, we need more depth along the OL, specifically at OT. McCray was serviceable there but he's much better suited inside. Round 4- LB Olasunkanmi Adeniyi Toledo ' Fit with GB: Fell in love with this kid while watching MACtion, explosive dynamic pass rusher. I know his size will turn some people away but that doesn't bother me, think he'll find a way to get it done. Will slide into our LB rotation, situational pass rusher to begin. Round 4- WR Korey Robertson So Miss Fit with GB: Typical TT WR. Good hands, YAC, quick, solid route runner, should immediately be our #4 assuming Jordy is back. Round 5- S Tre Flowers Oklahoma State Fit with GB: Great size. Productive player at OK State, solid all around safety prospect. Will definitely slide in on STs to start but has the upside to be a starter at some point, at worst fit into the rotation. Round 5- QB Riley Ferguson Memphis Fit with GB: Gunslinger. Has the tools, needs some refining. Has some red flags that need to be checked out but we'll do our due diligence. Will battle with Hundley for #2 job, will have to carry 3 QBs next year if he has a strong camp. *Too early to start projecting 7th round picks but figure another couple OL, TE or CB. Don't get too hung up on where I had guys pegged to get drafted, more so about the prospects itself that I like. Any feedback is appreciated.

AlexGreen#20 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 You need to spend some more money man. Bromley and Mewhort are JAGs that aren't going to cost. Not gonna speak bad of Edmunds or the other rushers until we see them in shorts. Really like the draft with the exception of Ferguson. Just don't see an NFL game.

Just don't see an NFL game. Was debating that but just have no idea how Gute will approach FA. Picked Mewhort & Bromley based off their connections to Philbin/Graham. Mewhort looked like a potential Pro Bowl lineman before the knee injuries struck, hoping that's behind him. Bromley has showed some starter traits as well. Hear ya though, upgrade Mewhort to Norwell in your mind lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in love with this FA class considering what our needs are, just don't see many great fits. At TE, sure Graham (think he's going back to NO) & Eifert are appealing but limited pool there. Sheldon Richardson would be nice but would be surprised if he doesn't resign. Guard is the only position I see us genuinely upgrading, WR possibly depending on what happens w/ Jordy/Cobb. Not in love with the FA CB class, no way we'll find good value there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like DaQuan Jones quite a bit as well in FA, good young ascending DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packerraymond Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I don't see Jay Bromley making a team that already has Clark, Daniels, Dial, Lowry, Adams, Green on it. You should have some extra money to begin with, I'd use that on a vet CB. Without bringing House back your vets are Rollins and Randall, that's a scary thought. Love the draft. Edmunds is Anthony Barr, Alexander reminds me of Hayward and Green is a guy who could move into the top 50 with a good combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollino14 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Seems like you put a lot of thought and work into this, good job! I'll have to look at Edmunds and Alexander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{Family Ghost} Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I like it .. something different. I like Edmunds a lot. He's an interesting option for sure as he's just scratching the surface of what he can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Don't like Eifert, injured too much and will be too expensive. Cheaper 2nd tier guys available. Would sign a WR FA before another dline guy as well. Green Bay is going to need some new blood in their wideouts and the draft won't bring immediate help. I like your first 2 picks a lot! Don't like Green that high. Would prefer Deadrin Senat from USF. He's a short NT that so far hasn't been blocked in either the bowl game against Texas Tech or at the Shrine Bowl. He seems to be a Casey Hampton clone. The Packer's dline would be magnificent with Clark/Daniels/Senat..... Also like Brandon Parker, OT from NC A&T. He's 6-7, 320+ pounds and can move. He could be the Pack's other third round pick. A WR in the 6-7 round would be Brandon Shed, 6-4 and 197 lbs. (From Hobart, a lacrosse buddy told me about him) Kid runs like a deer and catches the ball with his hands. A little like Janis, but can catch the ball away from his body and runs better routes. Still doubt he could contribute right away but in year 2-3 would be a force. The QB I see Green Bay liking is Mike White from WKY. He's very accurate and has only been a QB since his senior year in HS. Not sure how high this guy goes if he kills it at the Combine/Pro days.

Joe Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The draft is sensible. Personally I prefer Bradley Chubb but I certainly can get behind your pick. I don't like drafting another CB either, but wouldn't mind that particular player(thanks for the GIF's). Splitting hairs, I'd shake up the last few picks. Not a Ferguson fan, don't think we need another Safety. Not a fan of Mewhort, but Bromley would be some decent depth. Eifert may retire given his back issues; big red flag to me.

SSG Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Like the draft, its a good start. Edmunds is an interesting prospect, I'm interested to see how he grades out athletically. Not my favorite prospect as he wasn't an overly dominate pass rusher in College but he could have the tools. Love the Alexander pick. If he runs well he could be an end of first round pick.

I think everyone likes Chubb more lol but he isn't going to be available at 14 barring a Laremy Tunsil draft day video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da'Quan Bowers was a surefire #1 pick a few years ago and went in the 2nd. Guys fall sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
