Packer in great position on Day 3

With 7 picks picks remaining on Day 3, only one team has more picks left than Green Bay (Minnesota has 9, Pittsburgh and Cleveland also have 7 picks). We should be able to make some more moves to shore up depth along the offensive line, secondary, and at running back today. As always, I expect Ted to be aggressive with undrafted free agents as well.

Some serious talent still available on Day 3. Should be interesting to see which new guys we add.

These guys were all drafted last year in rounds 4-7:

R4:
Davon House
R5:
DJ Williams
R6:
Caleb Schlauderaff
DJ Smith
Ricky Elmore
R7:
Ryan Taylor
Lawrence Guy

I know 1 year is not enough time to evaluated these guys, but after looking at those name I'm starting to believe that trading up is the right move. None of the those guys were major contributors. I think its in our best interest to get some more 4th round talent and then sign a bunch of undrafted free agents.

With a team that was 15-1 quality should be valued over quantity.

You don't get contributions from 4-7 round picks in the first year without injuries. I think House and DJ Smith have bright futures ahead of them.

We have two comp picks at the bottom of the 4th. Those are untradeable. I don't think we have a regular 4th rounder.

Thanks millertime for the info from last year. Taylor looks like a steal with his STs contributions. I can't wait to see what DJ WIlliams does with a year under his belt. I'm really hoping we see the Lawrence Guy that Ted wanted to see when he made that pick.

Here's a quick look at what we were able to get in 2010 draft (check out after the 4th round):

1(23) Bryan Bulaga OT Iowa

2(56) Mike Neal DT Purdue

3(71) Morgan Burnett S Georgia Tech

5(154) Andrew Quarless TE Penn State

5(169) Marshall Newhouse OT/OG TCU

6(193) James Starks RB Buffalo

7(230) C.J. Wilson DE East Carolina

So, after R4 we were able to land some pretty significant contributors. We could wind up having an epic draft this year, when its all said and done... with 7 picks left!!! Holy crap!

Martha Careful (3h) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (7h) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (9h) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
