After making the playoffs for eight straight seasons, Green Bay has fallen on hard times recently. It was easy to blame an injury to Aaron Rodgers for the 7-9 finish in 2017, but there was no such excuse for the 6-9-1 debacle of 2018. That record was well earned. Uninspired coaching and a series ofContinue Reading››

Interesting comments. I don't want to be too critical but it's a little confusing.

He rates CB need higher than S then he drafts a S in 2nd round. Personally I think they need to give the young CBs at least one more year before you place them as the # 2 overall need.

The same thinking for WR. They have a lot of young players. They may workout and they may not. No one knows. If a value WR falls to them then I have no problem grabbing them.

Several of his choices are reaches at where he is wanting to take them.

After reading Rodney's article, he does not hit the "bullseye" for me. His alternate #12 overall pick for GB is the TE Hockenson from Iowa. He has GB picking Cody Ford (OL) OKlahoma. I don't see either happening unless everything falls perfect for GB and then they will leap on T.J.Hockenson (TE) Iowa. Failing that, they grab Noah Fant (TE) Iowa for the 1st selection.

With the 30th overall pick, it'all be best player available. They may select an OT, or DE, or WR if they think they are getting the a best available player that also fills a team need.

As far as I and many others see it, GB's greatest need in this draft is a good TE and I believe they will stay focused on that true target.

🤤

seriously they loaded up on the DL/OLB rush already and it's pretty deep draft this year for that so I see Gute bidding his time and taking another in the 3rd -4th round. Until then-

Cody Ford is possible. Jawaan Taylor is not. Johnathan Abram is probably on the short list too.
They will keep an eye on the WR and TE situation. In no particular order: Metcalf, Brown & Brown, Parris Campbell plus Hockensen & Fant.

Devin White is a fine player, but he does not fill GB's 1st priority need. 😁

Nobody knows who will be there at 12 and 30.
He could trade up, down or stay pat.

One thing I'm sure of is, whatever happens, there will be several guys to pick from at 12, if Gutey decides to stay there.

My best guess, Devin Bush at 12, DKMetcalf at 30.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I'll throw in Nassir Adderly at 44.

Haven't we had a thread in the past trying to predict the 1st 2 picks?

We need one!

BTW, I like Adderly on Day 2.

Why are we enamored with Nassir Adderly? Because of the last name?

Also, I believe Brian G is going to trade back. He said he's fielded several offers already about trading. I am going to assume it is trading back and wouldn't be surprised if he does just that. I just don't think we're picking at number 12 Thursday.
