Someone tied his laces together on his 40.
I did this mock a couple of days ago... I don't really care about the grades from PFF. Taking the 19th ranked player at 25 generates a C+? Really? I did consistently "reach" for players because they're the ones I wanted, and I pretty much got everyone and position on my list. I also think DT Boyd and OT Foster will go higher than they are ranked. Jaylen Wright's a special talent, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a team draft him higher than expected. He's my #1 RB.

my 2 cents ...
I think Das Gute is drafting to fill these thneeds using (these) rounds
"...its not about filling needs !"
Only 2 starter jobs open and they're both non-premium positions; RG1 and SS1 That makes it easier to chase value next month
And some of these openings will be combined and covered by 1 player
( OG2/OC2) or ( CB3/slotCB2).
Offense:
QB3... ( 5-UDFA)
RB3... ( 2-4)
WR9... ( 5-UDFA )
TE5... ( 5-UDFA )
LT2... (1-3)
LG2... ( 2-4)
OC2... (2-5)
RG1... (1-4)
RT2... (2-4)
Defense:
DT4... (1-4)
DE4... (1-4)
ILB3, ILB4... (2-4)
CB3 ...(1-4)
SlotCB2... (2-4)
FS2 ...(2-4)
SS1, SS2... (1-3)
"Jaylen Wright's a special talent, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a team draft him higher than expected. He's my #1 RB." I did a PFF 3 round mock and picked Wright with GB's 2nd Round pick at 41. I got an "F" for picking him there, even though Wright was the top player listed on their board, when pick 41 came around.

To me, replacing Aaron Jones in the draft is a paramount need.

Been saying that before they cut him. Fresh legs with a better speed is my hope. And if they need to take that in round 1, so be it.
That Jaylen Wright 4.38 40 is something to nab, a game breaker.

I watched that earlier and had a hearty laugh when he described a bad throw in the dirt as "Tebowing" it.
These are the top 100 picks that the Packers may be interested in. Not necessarily the top 100 players in the draft.

Strong and Tracy fit the mold of 4th-6th round guys who have the right speed and agility combo that this scheme needs.
Also like Shipley out of Clemson...serious McCaffrey vibes. Gotta get a RB that has enough lateral speed to get where he needs, then put his foot in the ground, one cut and go north. That was what 33 did best...that is what Raheem Mostert and CMC do best...although 33 and CMC add extra value in the pass-catching game.
Haven't seen enough of Tracy and Strong yet to know they bring that. Shipley has done enough I've seen to make me think he could be a steal for the right team.

Yup...this will do! Packer guy...does a little bit of everything they need. Inside zone, outside zone, can catch the ball, respectable in pass protection. If he's there in R5-R7 I think he has a good shot of being a Packer.
Tracy was stuck behind Tyler Goodson at Iowa.
Always liked him. Miscast mostly under the diabolical offensive mind Brian Ferentz.

Thanks Chongo.
I swear people like you and Herschel are better than the talking heads for the draft I see everywhere else. Coming here I learn things.
It's nice to want another Aaron Jones, but I want better. A guy who is a threat to take it to the house on any carry. Aim high.

Whom do you suggest we get and where in the draft, or FA, do you think we will find him? These guys(Guerendo, Strong and Tracy, Jr) are all 4th-6th round guys, IMO. I wouldn't mind any of them, in Green and Gold.
Right. Because every NFL GM will believe LAC would replace Herbert with McCarthy.
1, 19: Cooper DeJean, DB, Iowa
2, 41: Jaden Hicks, S, Washington State
2, 58: Kiran Amegadjie, OT, Yale
3, 88: Bucky Irving, RB, Oregon
4, 126: Tommy Eichenberg, LB, Ohio State
5, 169: Hunter Nourzad, OL, Penn State
6, 202: Myles Cole, EDGE, Texas Tech
6, 219: Matt Lee, C, Miami
7, 245: Sam Hartman, QB, Notre Dame
7, 255: Kalen DeLoach, LB, Florida State
Mock from Matt Schneidman Link (paywall)
I really think he's going to restock the O-Line....
Lost Bakh, Yosh, JR Jr....
Because this draft is deep at OL, it won't shock me to see first 3 picks O-LINE
Harbaugh trading Herbert and drafting McCarthy sounds insane which is probably what will happen as very little Harbaugh does is conventional.
As for GB, if the michiganjoe mock is correct I’d be pretty happy with it. Need to address DB and OL in this draft and get another RB.
Apparently, I'm reading the "Harbaugh" comment above incorrectly. Because I'm not seeing any mention of Harbaugh drafting McCarthy. I read it as he's been selling McCarthy in hopes QBs are drafted 1 thru 4. making Harrison available for the Chargers at 5. Not that he wants to draft McCarthy.

It's not going to happen.
If you didn't have to worry about absorbing dead cap charges in a trade, it might make some sense if you were really sold on McCarthy. Herbert's contact is very good this year in terms of cap hit (20 million), but it steadily rises over the next few years (37, 46, 58, and 71 million).
McCarthy would have cap hits of under 10 million dollars for the next 4 years and you'd get maybe one of the biggest haul of draft picks and players in NFL history for Herbert.
What makes it impossible is that the dead cap hit for trading Herbert this year would be 130 million.
@Boris posted:I really think he's going to restock the O-Line....
I can see a plug n play OG like Barton early, a developmental OT in 2nd -3rd followed by a versatile IOL like Bortolini after that. IF they don't believe Walker is gonna make the next leap, then an OT in the 1st seems more likely.
Also, the gap between pick 58 and 88 seems like an eternity...might have to package some picks and move up in round 3.
Top 30 visits to Titletown-
kinda interesting that some of them are in pairs at a particular position
Top 30 Visits:
OL Zak Zinter - Michigan
CB Jarrian Jones (FSU) CB Ja'Quan Sheppard (Maryland)
LB Edgerrin Cooper (Texas A&M) LB Trevin Wallace (Kentucky)
DL Michael Hall (Ohio State) DT Khristian Boyd (UNI)
^ could be a 3 Cooper draft for Packers
DeJean, Edgerrin and Beebe are all viable targets
Jets want to move down and pick up a 2nd. Packers offer then 25 and 58 for 10. Packers pick Quinyon Mitchell at 10 and S Cole Bishop at 41. Use both 3rds for offensive line help.
If the Pack moves up to 10, better be to take a franchise-level OT.

A few posts above yours is my answer, Jaylen Wright. Why are so many afraid to take the best RB in the draft early?
https://packers.timesfour.com/...0#722055397165597040
Now maybe someone will grab him early? But if he's there at 25, I'd take him.

Stand pat and get better OL.

I like Wright, as well. He'd definitely look good in Green and Gold.
Why pick him at 25 when you can get him in round 2?
These GM's know where players are slotted and set to go. They know......relax and enjoy the draft.
