I love Jenkins, but do not think that is our primary need now switching to 3-4, your thoughts?

I think it's hard to get an impact 1st year guy, with the possible exception of the outside rusher types (Maybin, Brown). I agree with you that it isn't necessarily a priority, but I also think I would be very happy with the pick a few years down the road. It's hard to pass on the best CB in the draft.

The Walter football now has us taking Raji because of the hire of Capers
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Look at some of the first-day CBs in the last few drafts:

Antonio Cromartie, Leon Hall, Johnathan Joseph, Darelle Revis, Chris Houston, DRC, Aqib Talib

Not all have been instant pro bowlers, but they're all respectable starters, if not the #1 CB for their respective teams. I have been pining for a 1st round CB for a while, and getting one like Jenkins would make me a happy boy indeed. Although Kiper putting him there in his mock makes me mad, cause he's 0-fer about 20 on Packers picks recently....

But yeah, if Jenkins makes it to 9, and he gets passed up, I'm gonna cry. Profusely.

Want an honest opinion.. I like Davis out of Illinois overall better than Jenkins.... but one can never have to many quality corners..

Vontae's got upside, for sure. But it's hard to argue with Jenkins' consistency - I thought someone mentioned that he would have been a top pick if he'd have come out the last couple years, which is impressive.

Definitely something we don't need right now. Go for a good CB in the 2nd round if he wants one. Get a good tweener right now like Maybin or Brown.

I would not understand us going after Jenkins. I'm expecting Maybin or Orakpo.

I doubt Maybin even goes in the first round. Some of the safeties in the draft look stronger than him.

Jenkins could be the pick because Harris and Woodson are getting older, and the team could use a corner to fill their shoes when they retire. It might not be a sexy pick now, but down the road we could be better off for it.

With that said, I'd rather see a left tackle taken at 9.

Yeah key words there are "down the road"....I want to make it to the superbowl this coming year, I don't want to have to wait until down the road. I think with the 9 spot we could get an immediate impact player. Hopefully a very successful tweener.

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (7h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (7h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (7h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (7h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (7h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (7h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (17h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (17h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (17h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (18h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (19h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (19h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (19h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (19h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (19h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (19h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (19h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (19h) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (19h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (19h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (19h) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (19h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (19h) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (20h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (20h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (20h) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (20h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (20h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (20h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (20h) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (20h) : This might be the kill shot here
