Yeah, I don't know a ton about the upcoming draft. Only that I heard it seems to be heavy on DL, so filling other needs in FA and grabbing a few guys at DE and DT makes sense to me.

Appears you are correct. The Packers are going to be stupid. My thinking was they were trying to lock down four spots, but I guess they wanna weaken two spots and hope for the best.


Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein → Sorry, mixed signals on who's playing where with the #Packers offensive line. I misunderstood info I received. Jenkins is going to be the center, Banks at left guard. Enjoy your day. Oy.

I read it as "Top Gun signs with Packers"

The Center decision seems the most interesting thing out of this. I wonder if they have Rhyan and Monk battle it out with a drafted rookie? Of course what there plan with Jordan Morgan and his health also comes into play. Is he a swing Tackle or could he be Rhyan's replacement at RG and Jenkins becomes the C.

So many options.

As far as OL prediction, and I'm doubtful of this, but based on a Packers comment, I'm going to make a more interesting suggestion of the OL we might see.

From Left to Right:
Tom, Banks, Jenkins, Rhyan, Walker

With Morgan competing for a starting on the right side, with them hoping Morgan will be the starting RT in 2026, if not 2025. But knowing to get the best 5 on the field, it might be Rhyan vs Morgan competing for the final starting spot at RG.

Mike McCarthy moved Josh Sitton to LG, to run better to the left, as successfully running to the left, opens up play actions rollouts to the right.

Well, Packers clearly heavily turned to the power running game in 2024, and with getting OG Banks, they appear to be still heading down that path even more.

A left side of Tom, Banks and Jenkins, CLEARLY dominant in the run blocking game over Walker, Jenkins and Myers.

Just random ideas, not sure if they're realistic as Tom does seem more like a RT and Walker more like a LT, but seems like they're sure they're going to re-sign Tom, and unsure if they'll re-sign Walker (especially after they've heavily invested in Tom, Banks and Jenkins, plus a 1st round picks in Morgan).

That's better than what I thought I saw on a billboard today. It actually read "Never stain your deck again." My mom won't let me say what I thought you wouldn't need to stain again.

Like Hobbs, Banks checks many of the boxes that Gute looks for. He is young, 27. He is big @ 6-5 325. He is a decent not great OG

Picking up Banks takes the pressure off the draft. They have plenty of pieces to move around on the OL. IF and only if someone drops into their lap the Packers can add another price on Day Two or more likely, Day Three.
