  2. Don’t get me wrong I love the show and maybe I’m not into the draft as much as others. Just feels like all these draft episodes are just getting a bit mundane. Maybe the amount of content your contract makes you put out is to explain for this or some other relevancy algorithm reason. I think this time of year less is more. The packers will be fine. They are still so young and if too many players peak at the same time we will never be able to keep them all anyway. Gotta pick some apples here and there while still getting to the playoffs is what 75% of sports franchises wish they could do. If Love plays top ten qb and our defense plays top 10 plus more experience watch out!

  5. I still envision a trade down especially if the few edge rushers that fit the packers mood are gone. A LOT of day 2 talent and what better way to address interior pass rush, WR, CB than doing so with three top 64 picks then depth the rest of the draft

  11. With Jaire Alexander still expected to leave this offseason, the Green Bay Packers would be left with Carrington Valentine, Keisean Nixon, and Nate Hobbs as their starting caliber cornerbacks entering the 2025 NFL campaign. It would make sense for them to invest in the cornerback position further in this year’s 2025 NFL Draft. Spending a 1st-round draft pick at cornerback feels less likely than at defensive tackle, simply because the options are less appealing in the 1st round. The only prospect who’s expected to go in the 1st round who might be available to the Green Bay Packers at #23 is Jahdae Barron. He is likely a slot cornerback, which the Green Bay Packers should have covered between Javon Bullard, Keisean Nixon, and Nate Hobbs, who spent some time there as a rookie. Jahdae Barron also has shorter arms than any cornerback the Green Bay Packers have drafted since at least 2011. Round 2 might be the sweet spot for an addition at cornerback for the Green Bay Packers, where the likes of Shavon Revel, Benjamin Morrison, Azareye’h Thomas, Trey Amos, and Darien Porter are all projected to be drafted. If the Green Bay Packers are any higher on any of those players than consensus, they could get them in round 1. Go Pack Go 💚💚💛💛

  13. I’m probably in the minority, but I feel the Packers need to draft a WR in the first round. The NFC north teams all have either elite or high draft pick WRs and the Packers do not, putting them (and Jordan Love) at a competitive disadvantage. It’s time for the Packers to get in the game-Emeka Egbuka should be the pick in round 1 if available. Only take Higgins if EE is not there at 23.

  14. I can see us on the clock with a couple guys sitting there most of us want to draft. Gute will pick a project based off his RAS that is on no ones radar. Three years from now the obvious pick will be a star while we're still hearing the guy we picked just needs more time to develop.

  15. If the Giants do Carter at 3 and one of the QB’s is available at 23, what are the odds of 23 for 34 and Thibodeaux? Maybe swap for 65 to sweeten the deal? I love the idea of essentially getting WR or DT and Edge for 23.
