When the Packers traded with the Saints in 2018 and received a 2019 First Round Pick, I wasn't expecting much of the 2018 first round pick at the 27th selection.

Original Trade

Saints receive:
» 2018 first-round pick (No. 14) -- Marcus Davenport, DE, Texas-San Antonio

Packers receive:
» 2018 first-round pick (No. 27) -- traded to Seahawks
» 2018 fifth-round pick (No. 147) -- traded to Panthers
» 2019 first-round pick

Then the Saints took a guy I saw lots of pundits saying the Packers would select, DE Marcus Davenport. And then the Packers made another trade.

Follow-up Trade

Packers receive:
» 2018 first-round pick (No. 18) -- Jaire Alexander, CB, Louisville
» 2018 seventh-round pick (No. 248) -- Kendall Donnerson, LB, Southeast Missouri

Seahawks receive:
» 2018 first-round pick (No. 27) -- Rashaad Penny, RB, San Diego State
» 2018 third-round pick (No. 76) -- traded to Pittsburgh
» 2018 sixth-round pick (No. 186) -- Jacob Martin, DE, Temple

When Packers selected CB Jaire Alexander, I didn't know much about him. Transparency, I knew little to nothing about any collegiate athlete. I must say when reading about best CB's in the league and seeing a Green Bay Packers player who they drafted and groomed is quite cool. I'm glad they picked up the 5th year option on him (no brainer) and hope they can figure out how to re-sign him during 2022.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm happy with the Jaire Alexander pick.

Gute working his magic. Jaire is one of the best CB in the league. If the new kid Jean-Charles develops they will have a a very good tandem for a very long time.

Yes I know it is Stokes.

Believe me, I’m rooting for King too, as long as he’s on “my” team. I’d love him to turn it around and be excellent.

I've been a big Jaire fan since he was drafted (as my signature attests) and think he'll be remembered as one of the best defensive backs in club history. Like I said in another thread I bought some of his rookie cards even though I haven't bought cards in nearly two decades and I'll probably get a jersey sooner rather than later. I sorta wish they would pay him the big bucks before they pay Adams. The fact that Gute picked him and then turned the extra first rounder into Savage was a masterstroke.

And my wife got me 2 signed Amari Rodgers rookies, both numbered to only 25.

Getting Jaire AND getting the extra first round pick was pretty awesome.

The thing with jerseys is outside of game day, when are you really gonna wear them? It's sorta like bringing your glove to the ballpark-something you do as a kid but as an adult? Eh.

And I wear my Packer jerseys whenever I feel like it....which happens a lot! And I just turned 64 three days ago. So I guess I’m just a kid at heart!😁
