Thanks mel kiper

I’m kinda guessing who might be bitching come fall.

Agree 100%. We should never hear the term BEST PLAYER AVAILABLE ever again. There’s no such thing in the NFL draft.

I don't want to hear anyone bitch about a draft or players that have never played a down in the NFL, but here we are!

JJB, you wanted Hicks because you probably read about him in some draft guide. Me too, and I've seen him on big boards as high as #39. But here we are after 121 picks and NO TEAM has drafted him.

So you can be mad at the Packers but every team has passed on Hicks multiple times. So maybe you don't know as much as you think you do?

Yeah....they need to stop wasting money as they are running out.

Ah, nice, always swell to see you drop in to troll. Assume you'll be back for training camp?

49rs just took the better safety and snagged Malik Mustapha, who will probably start for them.

I had him as a UDFA.
Gutey now has given the jets
back some value of the trades.
This is just what we all Love to see.
Right?

Highlights normally do

He's not a wrap up tackler.
He tackles by hitting

Who was that guy with the overseas accent riling up the Lions with the "4X Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packer" repetition while introducing the pick. Talk about 'working the crowd' lol.

Your schtick is so weak. They must pay you to stir things up.

Making that absolute declaration before the guy has even played a snap with the Packers. Nice.

The truth hurts .
Your as faithful as the deck of cards
this draft mimics.
TJ Tampa to Ravens- Steal there.

What was your draft day analysis of Jordan Love, Rashan Gary, etc?

They misery loves company but not even misery wants to hang out with you.

In agree. This guy is aggressive and fearless and in the film read plays well. I like what I see and as we know, the Packers like to draft athletes with character not just the physical skills. I would like to know what the reactions were when we drafted Aaron Jones in the 5th.

Yeah, but downhill guys who can hit what's in front of them are a dime-a-dozen.

Exactly my thoughts. Situational player could play as a 3rd safety on the field in substitution of a true nickle CB or LB on a condensed field- where instincts, ability to read routed, and quick diagnosis/reaction time trumps the need for top-end athleticism to cover a lot of ground.

He certainly looks like he gets after it. Interested to see how the Packers plan to utilize him.

The interpretation might be that they really do think more of Dillard, Jones, et al., than we thought...

I wouldn't be leaning into that, myself.

IN EDIT: one consolation is that after hammering the OT position in rd 1-3, teams don't seem to be chasing OL in rd. 4-5 so far. Gives the chance for some value at 168-169, I've probably jinxed that.

Yea, I am baffled with the lack of attention to the OL myself and can only think they are going to use at least two selections coming up in the last 3 rounds. Newman has to be pushed off the team by someone better.

Your Olineman is coming soon,Leatherhead. I agree they need one or two. Jim Nagy just put out a tweet. He thinks Packers got a great pick in Evans. This is the same scout/Senior Bowl Director who was pounding the table about Wicks last year.

Relax over there Leatherhead, the lineman start in a minute. Do you doubt the ability to find diamonds late in the draft. You got a first round tackle which you were crying for, and proceeded to bitch about it not being mid-second round talent DeJean, and now that the safety and linebacker rooms are full you're back to bitching about the line. C'mon pally, you're better than this.

There's always depth pieces to be found along the OL in the second half of the draft. I expect they will be picking up another today.

Too many good O lineman passed over, already. He may be liking his picks a bit too much, or is looking to sign some vets at cut-downs.

They took 3 OL in 3 out of the last three drafts….I think they know what they are doing.

Their undisciplined and will get penalties.

Astute analysis, NickPerry!

Nick,
Guess I should change my profile name to knocktheshitoutofyou!' LOL!

Right—I thought they were trading up for Mason McCormick. Lotta picks coming.

I would recommend Elijah Craig. Doesn’t hit as hard in the throat and very smooth in transition :)

I could go for an old-fashioned right about now.

Bourbon Old-fashioned, you must be from out of state.

Shhh! Don't point out the Senior Bowl...stockholder likes guys who do well at the Senior Bowl. You're killing his narrative!

Dan Lanning was the D-Coordinator at Georgia, the Packers are familiar with his work...

For what it's worth, players' coaches are naturally biased, and having players from your program drafted earlier is good for recruiting purposes.

That said, yeah, I'm sure the Packers didn't need reassurance. They drafted the young man for a reason, they see something in him. Let's hope it works out for everyone involved. I like the film.

If you think he's building the PS.
You'll get through this.

4.6 speed does not spell deep middle safety.

If Packers have a QB craving - my recommendation is D.J. Irons QB – Aakron Zips 6'3” 205lbs. A dual threat QB prospect with notable athleticism, a strong arm, and a great deep ball. Needs work in recognizing coverages. Reminds me of a small-school Joe Milton but unlikely to cost the Packers a draft pick - being a Priority Free Agent / UDFA.

Otherwise I see that Bucky was drafted in the 4th. So good for him. My favorite, Tyrone Tracey, is still waiting by the phone.

Cheese, Hopper was a 3rd round pick, that is a premium pick. I agree quality backups are usually in later rounds. If we wanted LB, Gray was right there for the taking. But since we filled the big LB need already with Cooper, What was the other biggest need? Interior OL, and Mason McCormick was sitting there like a Xmas present under the tree.

I would have no problem selecting Hopper @ #126 or later, or even picking another LB if he was gone. McCormick should have been that pick, it's a no brainer.

I get out of bed fine Reagan. My goal for every draft is to have the best draft of all the teams. I would hope that would be the Packers goal every year too. I also don't drink the "don't question anything the Packers do Koolaid." Or "the Packers know more than you ever will so don't even talk or post."

I disagree with the Hopper pick & trading up for Williams and Monk. I would have taken McCormick @ #91 and filled the other biggest need. T J Tampa-CB was available @ #126, and was the best value available. The Steelers and the Ravens are proven winners and are being praised for grabbing those 2 players.

That doesn't mean I am a bad fan. It's called giving my opinion. Regardless of my view on that part of the draft, the Packers are now set to make an extended run at the next 5 Super Bowls. GPG
