I've got the draft fever. I know these things are impossible to predict, but it' fun, so what the hell. . .
Packers Trade their 1st round pick for a 2nd and 3rd #38 and #70
D2 - Ryan Matthews - RB - Fresno State - One of my favorite players in this whole draft. Matthews is is a dynamite runner, showing the ability to break tackles, make defenders miss and run for daylight. Matthews would start out backing up Ryan Grant, but by the end of the year, everyone will know who our star RB is.
D2 – Rodger Saffold – OT – UI – 3.5 year starter at LT, Saffold held up great against big 10 competition. He was said to be the best player at the EW Shrine Game, then had a great combine. Good experience, great athleticism, hard worker. Seems like a great pick.
D3 – Koa Misi – OLB – Utes – A very complete OLB prospect that can rush the passer, drop into coverage and play the run. Misi would immediately add great depth to our OLB group. I think Brad Jones has a shot, but it would be nice to have two good prospects at such an important position
D3 - Alex Carrington - DE - ASU - The absolute prototype 3-4 DE prospect, Carrington is great against the run and a solid pass rusher. Carrington spends his first year learning the ropes and provides insurance in case Jenkins leaves next year in UFA or if Jolly continues to have off the field issues.
D4 – Javier Arenas – CB – Alabama – Arenas is a great punt and kick returner. He's short in stature, but is a good tackler and was a really good zone corner in college. Could be a dynamite special teams player and solid nickle back for several years in the NFL.
D5 - Alterraun Verner - CB - UCLA - An instinctive, natural zone player and reliable tackler, Verner projects well into our zone defense. I think he might be a slightly better corner prospect than Arenas because of his size, but Arenas is so damn electric as a returner, I took him first.
D5 – Kurt Coleman – SS – OSU – Lacking great size, Coleman has everything else. Just football, he's one of the best secondary players in the draft, but there is a risk with a smaller safety not holding up. He goes in the 5th round, at the very least is a good ST's player and reliable backup safety. He's always going to do his job well. In college he did it at the highest level.
D6 - Brent Bowden - P - VT - A well rounded punter, Bowden has a big leg, good touch, a quick get off, has developed consistency as a senior and is a good holder.
D7 -Michah Johnson - ILB - Kentucky - Injury concerns and a deep draft drop this quality ILB to the Packers. He'll immediately add competition to the group and maybe one day start.
