Colby Wooden looks like a nice rotational piece. Very athletic. Pass rush specialist inside with potential to play a little on early downs too. You’re not going to get ready to play all around DL in the 4th round, but he has a skillset that you can use situationally.
Definitely not your ho hum, slug of a 4th round pick. If the big guy last year is a run specialist, this guy is the pass specialist. Nice to have moveable pieces
Again with this pick, I'm pleased position-wise. We probably need a Safety, though. Other than that, I like the way things have gone so far.
Tucker Kraft might be a safer pick than Musgrave. Kraft may have average top speed, but his 10 yard and agility is elite for the position. That’s more of the skillset you see inside, creating space on short to intermediate routes and it makes him a high upside player for more of what tight ends are asked to do.
I would not be the least bit surprised if Kraft is the better player. He has top 10 TE upside. Musgrave has a chance to be like prime Jimmy Graham, but that’s kind of a long shot. Kraft being good is more likely than Musgrave being great or even good imo. If both pan out, it’s sure nice to have two different ones though.
I liked Wooden, but didn’t think he’d be a fit for the Packers 3-4.
Sean Clifford - A Penn State QB - Yuck, I just threw up in my mouth.
You’ll be hard pressed to find an uglier scouting report. And this Nigga so white, it’s blinding. I don’t know if I’ve ever been more sure that a guy was a failure on day one than I am with this guy. Ugh.Quote:

Gute is bordering on an F grade in this draft from me. Hope I’m wrong but this is abysmal.
First Packers pick that I didn’t scout—which means he didn’t play in the Shrine Game or Senior Bowl or get a combine invite. I have no opinion on him.
There's only SomeGuy Etling on the roster right now.Quote:

Would think they need a vet to back up Love, so Clifford or Etling for practice squad.
Agreed - I figured they'd wait till AR was gone, then bring in a veteran. Draft was a couple days after AR went bye bye, so I'm going to assume next week they'll start bringing someone in.Quote:

Harvey and Friday hitting skulls is strange to me. I didn't think Friday was that down in Van Ness, at least off the cuff.
Gute is a clean up power hitter. He does pretty well with his home run swings. When he chokes up and tries to hit for average he fails every time. Except Enagbare. That might be his one contact swing that worked out. Might be.Quote:

Wicks is a slot type all the way. He had better learn to battle because he does not have the speed to outrun a soul.

Damn, Cindy got Chase Brown. I wad hoping the Packrrs would get him.
5th round picks starting to feel less exciting. Yikes. We got through the 4th round with guys who all looked like they have a good shot and now the party is over. Looks like garbage from here on out.
Maybe I’m mistaking him for somebody else, but I don’t think so. I don’t know how anybody could be too down in LVN. He was such an obvious pick for us. We got two of the top 5 TEs in a strong TE draft—when TE is our biggest need. Both good value. I thought Reed was taken a bit early, but the Packers should get the benefit of the doubt on round 2 WRs for now. I would have rather had Benton instead of Reed and just about any S instead of Clifford, but shit like this happens every draft.Quote:

Still some interesting guys at safety (Taylor), IOL, RB. Landers and Ford-Wheaton at WR.Quote:

I like Reed, but we are still very unproven at WR, and the new TEs will take at least a year to get up to speed.
Since 2012
Hyde
Bakh
Lindsley
Aaron Jones
MVS
Runyan
Enagbare
I like Rasheed Walkers chances. Ford and Slaton might be rotational guys.
But we don’t even get one guy in the last 3 rounds per year. It’s not good.
Wicks sounds like special teams fodder.
Oh, and Bakh was a 4tg rounder. We literally hit about one guy every other year in rounds 5-7. Horrible odds.
I hate hate hate the Sean Clifford pick. I know he had a visit with GB but thought it was as a UDFA recruiting thing, not a R5 pick.
Oh, BTW he's actually OLDER than JLove, so maybe he's the veteran backup QB.
I guess if it saves them money spent on a useless horrible backup QB in the FA it's maybe worth it, but I thought there were better options available.
I’ve never been less inspired than when I read that scouting report. My gf was giving me head while I was reading through that report. The wind was sucked right out of my sails and I started crying. It really wrecked my day.Quote:

Welp, per the Packers:
They certainly need bodies there, and dude is super athletic. Undersized, but if he can get to 290+ and not lose much athleticism he has some upside. I guess he's the Dean Lowry replacement? At least he's got long arms and can run.Quote:
On where Wooden will play: "We're gonna play him at defensive tackle. He's a defensive tackle, big end type. Big, powerful ... he can definitely play (tackle). He's got the frame to carry what he needs to play D-tackle."
The Dontayion Wicks pick isn't bad. He's athletic and his 2021 tape is good. 2022 UVA had a new coach and an abysmal offense.
Wicks has some drops concerns but that can often (not always) be fixed. He has some upside and R5 WR is a lotto ticket.

Seems like they are leaning towards quick, penetrating disrupter types instead of big ole space eaters.
6th rounder Brooks looks more like a DT on paper, 6-3, 300 lbs. Probably a dev guy since he played in the MAC. Rushed off the edge some. Still looking for the new Keith McKenzie?
Your girlfriend was giving you head and you were reading a report?Quote:

Karl Brooks is an interesting pick. Standup rusher at 300 pounds, I'd assume he's playing DT for them. Like I said with Wooden, they needed bodies at DL, but it's a curious pick. I haven't looked at him at all, I'll have to go back and watch him.Quote:
