    Official 2023 NFL Draft Thread

    Might be drafting a little earlier than normal.

    What do Packers need?

    Future Franchise QB ? ))
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Fullback. Get someone like William Henderson. Then use the running backs more.

    EDGE, TE, Safety.
    Probably another WR and someone to return punts/kicks.

    Possibly look for help for Kenny; I'm not sure they're getting from Lowry and Reed.
    Their current rookies need to make a jump. Right now, the five Day1/Day2 picks they had have turned into confused rookie Quay, MIA Wyatt, hurt Watson, and inactive Rhyan. That's not good enough. Your Day 1 and 2 picks need to get snaps. (I think Quay will get better, but he and Campbell don't look good right now.)

    Packers currently have 14th pick. Last time they had 14th pick was 2000 when they took Bubba Franks.

    I think this squad has the ability to push for a top 10 pick if they put their minds to it.

    The packers first pick will almost certainly be an offensive linemen.

  14. #14
    Left tackle

    looks like osu could have 5 guys in the 1st round again next year.

    Recent 11th picks:

    2022: Chris Olave
    2021: Justin Fields
    2020: Mekhi Becton
    2019: Jonah Williams

    agree with that list.

    I would put an offensive lineman earlier. I had hoped we were taking an edge at 22 this year (Karlaftis or Johnson): it was a good year to get edge cheap. I still think Wyatt will be fine: it takes time for most of those guys and he has everything it takes to succeed (physically, drive, love of football). He was my alternate pick at 22.

    I do NOT WANT another safety before round three: pretty sick of the db mania. They don't even know what to do with a shut down corner like Jaire.

    Oh my!!!!

    This thread is hilarious. I can taste the cynicism.

    So long as we have AR, I have hope. And that's it. Unless Gute really turns a(nother) corner, it's a bleak future. That said, I think we did get a very good haul this year and took advantage of the deepest draft of 20 years. Quite a few guys will be solid to above solid starters from what I've seen: but, takes time. 12 is key to any success for the short term.

    Maybe we can finally draft a top tier WR

    Thats awesome since I was going to say a TE who could stress the middle of the field and also run block adequately.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
