Mock Drafts are starting to roll out.

Got this one from walterfootball.com

9. Green Bay Packers: Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State

If there's one thing we learned about Packers GM Ted Thompson, it's that he loves to take the best player available, no matter what position he plays. Luckily for Thompson, that strategy matches up with a position of need - and not another signal caller.

Green Bay has major problems in its secondary. Charles Woodson had to move to safety this season, and it appears as though he's staying there. Meanwhile, Al Harris, who's owed $5 million next year, probably won't be back. Tramon Williams played well, but the Packers don't really have anything else at corner, unless you want to count Patrick Lee, who couldn't even get on to the field in 2008.

Pick change; previously Michael Johnson, DE

I don't even think of this as a really weird pick.

Problem is, we're still stuck with this D-line and O-line. He'd have to jump into the FA pool and get some good players on those positions (Or at least, O-line, with Jenkins back the D-line might be somewhat better).

This kid seems to be a great replacement for when Woodson and Harris retire. Don't wanna get stuck with a bad secondary after they've retired.

One more thing though, since when is Harris leaving the team next year?

Harris himself said he did not think he would be back, and he thought they would be moving toward youth.

I've been hearing Everette Brown from Florida State, which makes me shudder given the last DE we drafted at #9 from Florida State.

Good thing about this Mock, is that Ted Thompson very seldom picks who is predicted. So I will not be upset when Jenkins isn't taken.

CB at this moment is 3rd or 4th in positions that need the least amount of work.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

And, Victor "Macho" Harris will still be available when we pick in the 2nd round. He's from Va. Tech, so that's probably why I like him so much.
