Actually think we're just fine THIS yr at OLB, definitely could use a mid round pick to boost the depth however. Next year we get our Clay successor.

Ideally his successor shouldnt be a rookie though.

I'm not ragging on any of our selections. I definately like the talent. What I dont like is continually designating TOP draft picks to CBs. We've got a few other positional needs. Just a few.

Agreed. I am fine with a CB in round one. (Though like you I hope we don't regret not taking CM 2.0, i.e., Edmunds.) But to me it would've made more sense to draft 2 more CB's on Day Three. I would've gone WR, TE, or OL in round two (if we're going strictly need-based.) On the other hand, perhaps Gute wishes to maximize their chances of solidifying the CB unit, and felt grabbing a couple of the highest rated CB's would maximize that chance. I also think it may show that Gute thinks the Packers are more than a couple players away from contention, and need at least a mini-rebuild, and are more than a year away from being a valid contender--something which I think too. Hence his comments of using this draft to shore up the back half of the roster (i.e., with prospects who will need some time to develop.)

Time to push the panic button on receivers? 

I don't think so, Green Bay has the luxury of being able to take a "super athlete, dubious wr" that other teams don't, as they won't  have to force that guy in a starring role immediately,

Naw, still some guys there but no one at this point should be counted on as our No. 2 guy. I'm going to keep banging the hammer for Dez at least for 2018...
