Well since 2006 the Packers have either drafted a lineman or 3-4 OLB in the 1st round... (and in nickel packages 3-4 OLB are basically linemen as they're used as 4-2 DEs)
I'd REALLY REALLY like to see a dominating DL... as well as Pickett, Jolly, Raji, Neal and Wilson are all FAs this year... and even if you resign them Pickett and Jolly aren't no spring chickens, Raji hasn't been consistent, Neal has been needed at OLB and Wilson hasn't played much even when healthy.
So I want to see improved DL... I want to see high potential DL become a stud in GB.
High potential DL would be
RaShede Hageman, Minnesota, 6-6, 311Hageman is projected to drop into the late 1st as of right now because while he has a ton of potential he's also extremely raw and has been inconsistent... but there is also so much potential there. Some think if you can some better talent around him where he's not doubled (and sometimes tripled team) that he would be a lot more consistant and hiefs have a DL named Poe they said about the same thing about and he's not a stud in KC. High risk but possible high reward.
But I'm expecting more along the lines of
NT Louis Nix, Notre Dame 6-2, 345Nix gives GREAT GREAT effort for a NT and has shown he's willing to play any scheme asked of him, he can get after the passer some and is a beast against the run. Also he's been injured.
Another guy I would strongly look at if he's still there is
CB Justin Gilbert, Oklahoma State, 6-0, 200 All the physical potential is there for Gilbert to be a stud, but he's still extremely raw... but the CB coach has a history (mostly in college) of taking athletic offense players that were inconsistent on offense and turning them into consistent CB (on the college level)... but he has done the same with Shields. So why not give him another top talent guy to work with?
Can't have enough good CBs.
