Hey everyone!

I know a few of you on here know me but for those of you who don't I have a hobby that consists of me making a mock draft every so often during the months leading up to the draft. so I just thought I'd post this one up here and get some opinions on it. So without further ado heres my second attempt at a mock ( my first was vefore we made the 3-4 switch so its pretty much null).





Packers Mock 2.0


1) Maclom Jenkins CB/S Ohio State- Being a Buckeye fan i'm a little biased but Malcome Jenkins can absolutely play. His timed speed isn't elite but his speed on a football field makes one forget about all that. He's physical enough to play press man to man, but can also thrive a zone coverage scheme. His physicallity is almost unmatched when it comes to the other corners in this draft which leads some to believe he could also play the safety spot. he comes in and plays were ever he's needed for this season (S, Nickelback, Dimeback, etc), and then takes over for one of the Vets next season.

2) Ron Brace NT Boston College- He's not quite the overall specimen his Boston College teammate is but Brace fits the bill of a 3-4 Nose Tackle perfectly, he's very capable of taking on multiple blockers and clogging that middle up, Just wat the 3-4 asks. With Him and Picket forming a solid rotation our NT spot is set for the year.

3) Lawrence Sidbury DE/OLB Richmond- A college defensvie end that ranslates well in into a 3-4 pass rushing Outside Linebacker, his natural pass rush abillity may turn him into one of the steals of the draft. It make take some time for him to adjust to rushing from a stand up position but he definitely has the abillity to accel.

3* From jets) Troy Kropog LT/RT Tulane- A Tackle tailor made for the pro zone blocking scheme and provides instant depth on both sides. Played left tackle in college but translates more into a right tackle in the pros in my opinion, not really a road grader but thats not what were looking for.

4) Rick Jean Francois DT/DE LSU- Francois is a bit of a risk to draft here after an academinc suspension two years ago and some nagging injury concerns not to mention his threat to "Take Tim Tebow Out of a game", however would a guy with a bit of a mean streak be something this defense could use to its advantage? I believe so, and more importantly I believe a 3-4 Defensive End is the perfect position for him, weighing in at 290lbs he's perfect size and has some solid quickness with Very impressive strength at the point of attack, perfect for occupying blockers.

5) Ian Johnson RB Boise State- Johnson A consistent and determined back who can help a team in a variety of ways, running the ball (almost 800 carries in college), catching the ball out of the backfield, and also has some special teams value. Everything you look for in a change of pace 3rd down back with a chip on his shoulder thanks to doubters of his speed and abillity and that could propell him to greater heights.

6) Trevor Canfield OG/OT Cincy- Another Zoneblocking able Linemen here, has a lot of versatilillty and could eventually kick outside to Right tackle thanks to his athleticism. Has a mean streak and plays downhill bone crushing football.

6* From Saints)- Otis Wiley S Michigan State- A versatile safety with ball skills and play making abillity, falls here with Question marks on his consistency as well as injury issues during his senior campaign, great value here and will provide depth and special teams support on kick teams along with some return abillity.

7) Dominque Edison WR Stephen F. Austin- A great combination of size and speed at 6'2 and 205 pound Edison's potential alone is enough to take a flyer on him in the 7th. Isn't especially polished working against lower level competition and may find it heard to get off the line against pro DBs but with a few years of work he has the potential to be a solid NFL level contributor.

Ian Johnson, isn't that the guy who proposed to his cheerleader girlfriend? If so I've read good things about him lately.

Dj yes thats the guy, he seems like a steady player that will do anything for the team.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I would be mad at Ted Thompson if he took Jenkins, especially now that his stock has dropped.

I think he'll play free safety in the NFL especially with his lack of speed. That means GB takes Jenkins and moves Nick Collins to SS whom just had a pro bowl season at FS. I think it makes little sense, but I thought that before the combine. Then again Ted Thompson has fooled us all before.

I've been a draftnik for years. I do my own mocks. I look at team needs and drafting philosophies. I scour the internet for scouting reports and player bios. I compare pre-combine and post-combine rankings.

In the past four years, I have been completely and consistently wrong about whom I thought Ted would draft.

One of us doesn't know what the hell he's doing...

I do the same 🙂 and ive had about the same success, though last year I did predict 2 picks in a mock Finely in the 3rd as well as Matt Flynn in the 7th.

In 06 I predicted A.J Hawk as well as Will Blackmon correctly but in the wrong round ( I pegged him the 3rd)

So my success rate isn't amazing at all haha but thats the fun of it, you never know what is gonna go down in the draft especially with Ted Thompson and his lesser known gems.

I've correctly gotten AJ Hawk, Blackmon, and Brandon Jackson so far.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (20h) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
