I'd rather stink for a year and have a shot at Quinn Ewers over the guys this year.

I'd rather stink for a year and have a shot at Quinn Ewers over the guys this year.
Packers currently with the 9th pick in the NFL Draft
Past #9 picks:
2009: B.J. Raji
1977: Mike Butler
1971: John Brockington
1967: Bob Hyland
1966: Jim Grabowski
1942: Urban Odson
1940: Hal Van Every
1939: Larry Buhler
1937: Ed Jankowski
Hopefully the Packers will be a prime position to land an OT.
If we draft in the top 10, QB is the target.
Agree you have to look at QB when you're drafting that high. There will be some decent ones in the draft.
You could also grab a top end EDGE or OT.
Packers back to the 14th pick in the NFL Draft.
So what now Rats? You rooting for an early pick, or does this win mean Packers still have a shot at the playoffs?
I will NEVER root for an earlier pick until we are officially eliminated from playoff contention. Never say die til its done.
10-30 is offensive linemen or pass rusher territory in my opinion.
Agree - you want to win.
I'm fine with them taking an EDGE in R1; it's a good class and GB's depth there is iffy, especially with Gary's injury.
I don't think they're gonna get 6-1 but I think they are gonna win a few. Without Gary it'll be tough to go deep into the playoffs of course.
You think either of those guys is the truth, though? Man IDK. I don't think the little fella from Alabama will succeed, but then again I didn't think Kyler would either. Russ was built different from the start so I did believe he would.
I have never seen the OSU feller play but I am skeptical. Would be nice to be wrong. I'm curious what Bruce Springsteen Wallbangers thinks about it.
I know he hasn't started college yet but when is "tank for Arch" going to be a thing? If I'm the Packers, maybe that is my ideal post Rodgers QB target right there.
As of now, Packers picking 12th.
Packers picks 10-18
10) Jamaal Reynolds, Larry Elkins
11) Tim Lewis, Walt Schlinkman
12) Rashan Gary, Alphonso Carreker, Barty Smith, Rich Moore, Herb Adderley
13) Gale Gillingham, Lloyd Voss, Earl Gros, Alex Hawkins
14) Bubba Franks, Dave Robinson
15) Wayne Simmons, Eddie Lee Ivery, Jim Taylor, Bob Fleck, Billy Howton, Dan Dworsky
16) Justin Harrell, Aaron Taylor, Rich McGeorge, Rip Collins, J.W. Wheeler
17) Bob Jeter, Jim Temp, Tobin Rote
18) Jaire Alexander, Tony Bennett, Joel Wells
As of this moment, Packers (11th) picking before the Lions. :whaa:
LOL at Bubba Franks at #18. What a throwback! That was a large man. Is someone like that even draftable in today's NFL? He's like Big Dog sorta, but probably less mobile.
EDGE or possibly OT (depending on Bakh). I think we are good with LG Jenkins, C Myers, RG Runyan, RT Nijman for next year. Bakh or high 1st at LT. We could go with Nijman, Jenkins, Myers, Runyan, Tom, but Nijman is a FA after next year.
I thought Njiman was an RFA this year and is a UDFA this offseason (same as Lazard)?
He's made some money as a swing tackle at a minimum, and I'm pretty sure some team will offer him starter money and try him at LT.

I think he's gone unless they dump Bahktiari and sign him as the LT instead. Either way they have to find someone to play T.
Elgton Jenkins is UFA. Over The Cap has Nijman as RFA. Spotrac has him as UFA.
I'm pretty sure Nijman is an RFA next year.
Nijman has been with the team since 2019, but he was on the practice squad for most of the 2019 season, so he didn't accrue an NFL season.
You're probably right. Would be nice if they can keep him. Would also be nice if Rhyan and Tom pan out.
Packers with 9th pick in the draft. B.J. Raji territory.
I think there are at least 2-3 games (CHI, DET, LAR) that are winnable, which would push them out of the top 10. I'd be surprised if they pick earlier than 8th unless they make roster decisions (i.e., play young/depth players only, etc.)
Packers drop to 11th in draft order.
I think Rodgers will say he's healed up enough to play the Rams after the bye and (they should win) they'll mathematically stay in contention until the week after. I think they lose in Miami and by then SEA-NYG-WAS will have put enough distance between them and the Packers. After that it's the Love Boat.
Speaking of the Rams, how bad are they? Detroit will get their R1 pick this year -- will be a top 3 if not top 5 -- in the Stafford trade.
The NFL should push the trade deadline back 2-3 weeks IMO. That said, I'm glad that GB didn't give up what will be a high R2 for Chase Claypool.
It will be a top 50 pick and likely lead to a good player on a cheap contract.
They would be stupid to not start Rodgers as long as there is a mathematical chance. They really ought to start him even if/when they no longer have a chance - maybe give Love part of the game like in the preseason.
Packers with 10th pick. Jamaal Reynolds territory.:whaa:
