Very interested in what positions we take with our two second round  picks.  Branch still available and our need at Safety could Gute trade up?  I would prefer we keep our picks, but I could see the desire to secure the best Safety in the draft.

I'm working off my phone. It's difficult to type. At a glance I am thinking TE, WR and S are the greatest needs. I have no idea which of these players are really worthwhile. I'm going off of 2 consensus big boards.
TE
Mayer
Washington
Musgrave
Kraft
LaPorta

WR
Hyatt
Downs
Tillman
Rice
Mims
Dell

S
Branch
Johnson
Battle
Brown

Picking at 13 & 15 someone will be there. Depending on how the Packers value them they might select another player.

I like Kevin's picks. I'm thinking there may be a run on WRs and TEs before the Packers pick because everyone knows they need both. So maybe they end up with S and/or OL here in the second round.

Do you (anyone) think this is accurate? I pose this question because the more I think about my TE selection, I think he might be too athletic/project-y for the Packers in round two.

Round 1: Extremely high potential developmental athlete. (Alexander, Gary, Savage, Love, Walker, Wyatt)

Round 2: Where's the beef? (Jenkins, Dillon, Myers)... 

Round 3: Some tweener player whom can't play either position in the pros (Burks, Sternberger, Digara, Amari, Rhyan)

===================

I thought that was a great breakdown, though I think for Round 2 it should be assuming we don't re-sign anyone, what's are biggest need next year's draft.

As that's gets you Jackson, Jenkins, Dillon, Myers and Watson.


Which, this year it would be TE and S

I think the experiment is over.

Round 2 is going to be a TE and WR. 3, an OL to be named later.

Burks was a Safety moved to LB to be a coverage LB

Sternberger was used like a WR in college (but had the TE label) and got moved to TE. Also, he never seemed like the smarter to start with, then concussions surely did not help. Also, Rodgers wanting players to know a ton of audibles that never get written down sure did not help either.
​​​​​​
Dugara, well, not so much of a tweener, as an H-back (which H-back is a TE/FB tweener by definition), so I guess tweener after all.
​​​​​​
Amari, WR but listen to the Packers post draft keep talking about using him at RB... which honestly that's on the Packers. To fit that roll well, you need speed, quickness or explosion, which Amari clearly didn't have... not sure why they thought that was a good idea.


Rhyan, played as a LT for a long time, but clearly didn't have the correct body type for it, and would surely be moving to OG in the pros. Also, his style is clearly going to have to change, as he was overcompensating to stay at LT and keep up with that speed and length, which if he does that at OG in the pros he'll get bowled right over will bull rush after bull rush, focus on power as he has enough quickness for an OG and doesn't need to overcompensate for it. Though, I still clearly had him behind Tom.

If Gute is looking for a Marcedes Lewis type, Washington is the pick.

Road Grader who wasn't used in the passing game a whole lot, but made the plays when called upon. Sound familiar.

45.
Cedric Tillman would be my pick for wr.
6' 3" - 220 Gute has almost always preferred the tall lanky guys. No 6-4 or 6-5 in this draft that I know of .

78.
J.L  Skinner S Boise State
Just like his size and ability.

I still wonder if Gute is going to try and trade Savage?
He traded HA Ha  
Savage has that 8mil guaranteed cap hit, sure would be nice to free up that money for cap space.
