It HAS to be...that's their biggest need. DeJean would be a little redundant with Branch... Arnold makes too much sense(hope it's Wiggins though).
-
Did Detroit just trade in front of us to get Arnold? Highly doubt it'd be DeJean. My guess is Chop.
-
If a team that doesn't have a lot of picks really wants to move up and get back into the 1st, I'd make them give up a 1st. Andy Herman broke it down. One trade was Denver trading a future 1st for a pick in the 40s and then a pick in the 4th. That'd be great value. Terrion Arnold doesn't excite me, but that's mainly because I haven't watched any of his clips. I watched Mitchell, but then he kinda went flying by us. Moving down, pick up extra '25 capital and then maybe back up as we did for Jaire would certainly be an interesting way to go.
-
Of course...it's just Peter, "I do this for a living, we're not alike," with the 'let me repeat what I said earlier because I'm that right.' It can go wrong like when we traded back and passed up Watt or it can pay off like when we traded back for Jordy.
-
This kinda made me chuckle...
-
Yeah...kinda. You also trade back if you have 5 guys with similar grades. There's just something about Peter that's annoying.
-
Yeah, a big, physical corner who excels in press man as you're moving to a press man scheme? Not here quite yet. Wiggins feels like one of their types of players. I just want to speak that into existence. Guyton feels like a Dallas type player(he reminds me of Tyron Smith, he's just raw).
-
LOL...exactly. Just because Gute seems to do the opposite that is expected of him. Fautanu is the first guy I hate to see go. He was a plug and play stud OG and a future LT...IMO. Miami probably would have taken him though. I hope Wiggins goes to Philly.
-
Yeah, I'm just skeptical of these "late reports," that may impact longevity. I'd think the Packers would have brought him in, but perhaps he's not even on their board. How often do we find out after the fact, a team didn't even have a certain player on their board. And Verse gone to the Rams! We're now in the range where...we're going to get a REALLY good player either way. 1-Fautanu 2-Mitchell 3-Wiggins(I think he goes to Philly) 4-DeJean 5-Arnold NO particular order and I'd guess Brian Thomas goes in there. Does Mitchell actually fall? Did I just jinx it by asking that question?
-
Agreed. The two that I thought would be gone in the early teens are still there. I keep saying Fautanu has to go ...but the Rams should probably go get one, but...hell, they also need to replace Donald.
-
Eh, he missed a lot of time and unlike Guyton, I don't think he can play OG well in this system. Guyton on the other hand? I'm just REALLY surprised the top CBs and Fautanu are all still on the board.
-
Man, I don't know. That's where you build the heart of your team. If you think you can get a immediate impact player AND a long term starter, sure. With Mitchell, Arnold and Fautanu...I might stand pat. Thomas is likely to go at some point here. Oh, and Wiggins. I would REALLY think Cincy would take the OT, but I've been wrong on the last two I thought were obvious, Mitchell to Indy and Turner to Seattle.
-
What'd they give up?
-
Yup! I'd start think about moving up here maybe. Seattle I would think would go Turner(CB, LT top 10 last two years)...18 you'd have your pick.
-
I like Murphy...probably not for a trade up to 15 though. Didn't watch Arnold closely enough, but Mitchell from Toledo looked legit. Really good fit for press man and physical in the run game.
-
I'm watching ESPN for some reason...their "best available," is not the best available IMO. Hopefully Turner, Latu go, Murphy, Newton...Mitchell or Arnold falling would definitely make it more interesting. I think Mitchell goes here and Arnold will go to Philly at best, probably earlier.
-
For Mitchell or Fautanu? I don't think so, but those would be the two I'd go up and get. Chicago is going to be DEEP at WR. I'd wait until at least ~18 or so. Moving up from here is likely going to cost us a future 1st or both our 2nds. I don't think it's worth it.
-
This is good for the Packers so far. Just pushes a few guys down the board...really wish Denver would have moved up for McCarthy rather than Minnesota though.
-
I doubt it. I'd guess Denver was eager to take McCarthy. Especially if they end up taking Nix...which is not a great pick IMO.
-
He's a stud, but I'm just glad they didn't take Fashanu. I thought they should have added to that OL. I'm not a big fan of Braxton Jones.
-
Well...yeah, of course! It was even more fun doing the mock draft simulators until Jordan Love ruined it by...winning. We could have had Joe Alt!
-
I don't think so, I think the Nabers talk is legit. But the Chargers now have an elite OT combo with Alt and Slater. That's a team that needs to build from inside out. They've always had this flashy talent, but they rarely seem to have the OL/DL you need. Alt was by far my favorite prospect in this class. I think they made the right move... That said, best case scenario is Brian Thomas falls to #25 and the Chargers are desperate to replace Williams/Allen and trade up and give up a future 1st? We probably have to send a 3rd back or whatever, but it'd be well worth it.
-
I could not agree more. I was on the Harrel bandwagon...after we made the pick. It's really kinda silly not to. All the mock and guessing is fun, but the Packers are so well run, Gute and their scouting is exceptional, it's really pointless(and a little arrogant) to get disappointed about a prospect. Even the Jordan Love pick...I half heartedly predicted it and then felt disappointed for a bit, then just excited about the future. I hoped we'd get lucky enough to find another franchise QB...and now we're watching the Packers draft as a team with legitimate SB aspirations.
-
Colson would make me really cringe. I like Colson, he's a smart backer. He's savvy slipping blocks, but for all the talk about how Cooper is a Will, I don't see Colson as more of a MLB. I also like Wilson. Tough kid, but a little older, knee injuries. I'd feel about the same with Cooper as I did with Quay. It wouldn't be my favorite pick, but I think Hafley will take advantage of our LBers athletic ability. I also think the edge from Mizzou, Darius Robinson is a very real possibility at #25. More likely I think we move either up 4-6 spots or down, but if we stay put, I think it'll be a pick most fans find a little boring. I'll come around either way. The talent of this team with 5 top 91 picks? Could this draft feel more different from last years?
-
LOL...missed that one. Still love the guy as a player. He's one of a handful of Badgers I've actually really hoped would end up here, but I can imagine he's not exactly at his best in space vs a guy like Daniels. Speaking of UW guys, thoughts on Guerrendo or Bortolini? I was really unimpressed with the prior in Wisconsin and going back watching Bortolini, he needs a lot of work on the QB exchange, but he was a little better than I remembered. 169 would be a solid range.
