I just heard that Todd McShay's mock draft has the Packers getting Melvin Gordon at #30.

I would jump for joy if that came true!

This your first year looking at mock drafts. Way too early to get rocks off, Texas.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I saw one mock draft today that had Gordon going to Indy one pick ahead of Green Bay. I wonder if that would be how we'd find out how many cuss words Tex knows. I bet almost as many as if he goes to Seattle one pick AFTER Green Bay.

Running Back's are not highly valued anymore and there several teams ahead of the Packers who do not have a Eddie Lacy and James Starks.

James Starks for 2015: $1.175 million
Eddie Lacy for 2015: $713,401, 2016: $867,602

Melvin Gordon will most likely go around picks 20-25 although a couple teams later could snatch him too.

20 Eagles: I believe there is some contract issues with LeSean McCoy and Gordon would probably tear crap up in that Chip offense
25 Panthers: their running backs are aged quite a bit for their position
26 Ravens: Justin Forsett is 29 years old and has not yet been signed
27 Cowboys: they probably drop the money truck for Dez and let Murray walk so Gordon here makes sense
29 Colts: After giving up a 1st for Bust Richardson, why not use a 1st on Gordon?

A dark horse in the Melvin Gordon sweepstakes would be the Vikings. If they truly do not want Peterson back, they could trade down ~10 spots, acquire more picks and still get Gordon.

Bottom line though, again, Packers will not draft Melvin Gordon in the 1st round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Troy Aikman has a better chance of being the offensive coordinator for the Packers.
