Can’t see this taking over. Maybe a few players coming off a concussion will wear it for a few weeks?
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:57 AMGreat summary, Fritz.
George Cumby 04-27-2024, 09:57 AMI also like that this kid created 0.4 missed tackles on average each carry last year. This kid is not easy to bring down. That is the kind of runner we

25. Jordan Morgan (36)
AND said Morgan was a Tackle.
George Cumby 04-27-2024, 09:52 AMMan, the Eagles gave up a lot.
They must've thought Gute was going to pick him.
I’m guessing there was a maybe a steep drop at LB on their draft board after him. This wasn’t a very deep draft at LB to me.
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:49 AMI don’t get the average vision thing on this kid. You can’t put up the numbers he did while running into your lineman’s ass continuously. He has
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:43 AMSeems like they want LBers that take chances and are okay with mistakes. The anti-AJ Hawk types.
sharpe1027 04-27-2024, 09:39 AMI’m just not sold on Iowa defensive players. The Big Ten is a below average offensive league. Iowa defensive players often look fabulous in college,
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:37 AMI got a sense from listening to Guter that this is in part a special teams pick. if he develops, great, but apparently he's being counted on for special
Fritz 04-27-2024, 09:36 AMAnd didn't the Raiders hire a so-called draft expert - Maycock? Mayock - to be their GM? So that's been tried. I don't think that one worked out. He
Fritz 04-27-2024, 09:34 AMThis was a meh pick for me. Seems more like a late 4th to 5th round talent to me. He lacks sideline to sideline speed but he does play physically. Wilson
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:32 AMGood points. Versatility is a big, big thing now in Green Bay, and this kid's got it.
To me, after watching Guter's presser, it would seem
The fumbler part I remember. I don't remember the part about average vision.
Good point above about how the backs now are more interchangeable.
That's not the summary, that's the full report. My earlier post is the TLDR summary.
sharpe1027 04-27-2024, 09:23 AMSaid a lot of people about Ahman Green. He turned out alright.
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:23 AMI think this pick was far more about the kid being similar to Jacobs. The Packers like to substitute their backs extensively. The vast difference between
King Friday 04-27-2024, 09:22 AMReally nice summary Fritz. Good reminder that Kiper, PFF and Magazines aren't NFL GM's for a reason. Not to mention that GM's that go all in (see Dikta
Spaulding 04-27-2024, 09:10 AMI believe this is a solid pick because of two reasons. First, this kid was not a 5 star recruit coming out of high school, yet he went to Georgia and
