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.

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
