OT seems to be all over the map this year. I've see lists that have 2 in the top 45 and I've seen list with 4 in the top 35. I've seen Jonah Williams rated as the 5th best talent overall in the draft and I've seem him projected as a late 1st early 2nd rounder though most have him top 10 at least and the #1 tackle. It would appear that if we are interested in an OT at #12 Williams will probably be gone so our best bets will be Greg Little, or David Edwards with Jaawan Taylor being a wildcard. I've seen him all over the map as well.

The thing is, between Williams, Oliver, Simmons, Brown and Gary, one of those guys is bound to fall right in our lap, just because there's so much talent at the DE/DT position this year. There's no way I'm reaching for a tackle in that case. Not even if it actually was a proper need.

To be honest, I'd rather capitalize on that amazing talent left at 12 by trading down than by picking one of the pass-blocking tackles. If you can get Bulaga back for a reasonable price, you're set for the next 3 years, at least.

Next to that, I'm still rooting for a DE/OLB and I still think Montez Sweat will climb up the draft boards to somewhere around our pick.

take edwards and move bulaga to guard

Slightly off topic, but Dan Kadar has the Packers taking a tight end at No. 31 :

31. Green Bay Packers: (via New Orleans): T.J. Hockenson, TE, Iowa
Hockenson, a redshirt sophomore, is being coy about his intentions  regarding the 2019 draft. If he does go pro, Hockenson is arguably the best tight end in the draft. He leads Iowa in receptions and receiving yards, and he’s equally as good as a blocker. He can be a nice check-down target for Aaron Rodgers, who seems to need all the help he can get.

It sounds great in theory. My problem with the idea is that I don't know if Aaron Rodgers has the mentality to make optimal use of another check-down target. He had a couple this year, and he pretty much ignored them the entire season. It'll probably take a sweeping change in offensive mentality for Rodgers to consistently harness the power of a tight end gifted at running short routes.
