This article hurts... and while it's not fair to go back and cherry pick, the ones that were one pick after (and fans clearly thought the pick after was the better player before the draft) or exact same position seriously hurt.

Kevin King/T.J. Watt

Jordan Love/Tee Higgins
Jordan Love/Jalen Hurts

Darnell Savage/A.J. Brown

Josh Myers/Creed Humphrey (one pick after)

Jace Sternberger/Terry McLaurin (one pick after)

Amari Rodgers/Amon-Ra St. Brown

Josiah Deguara/Alex Highsmith

For me, just two that are ouch are Brown and McLaurin. Creed is close but I think my dislike of Myers could be clouding my judgment.

Higgins is over rated.
Hurts wouldn't produce better than Love.

My two picks are selected because I think they'd have success with Packers. Some are product of situation and scheme.

If course I'd like Watt, but at the time, I understood the goal. Can't say I agreed with it, but I understood it. And it's not like anyone knew Watt would be who he turned out to be.

My only logic has been Gute/Packers liked Big 10 over Pac 12.

The ones that hurt me the most are Watt (which I was wrong on), and the two that were picked one pick after our pick, as I was literally yelling for the correct guy that got picked for the pick after ours.

Packers needed a Center, Creed was the highly hyped one, and it was obvious when he fell that far, and Packers picked the right position, but wrong player.

The Packers needed TEs for LaFleaur's system, but McLaurin should of never fell that far in the first place, I thought it was obvious to go with the draft steal over the need there.

Also, Sternberger was basically a receiver in college, so it wasn't like he was actually a TE, so since both were receivers, McLaurin seemed obvious to me.

It's hard for me to stand on a soap box for Creed because I haven't watched him.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.
