  • Who Should The Packers Draft: 1st Round

    Well, it came earlier than expected, but it's time to start looking ahead to the draft. The last 2 years, TT has gone OL. Everyone will be looking for defense, but you never know what TT will do.

      If we keep Finley and Wells trade up and get an impact DL or LOLB.

            I like to think outside the box. I've seen in some mocks we take Polk, HB Wash, Wiley from Illinois, and a handful of other OLB/DL

              I don't think you need to use a 1st round pick for a guy like that. Sproles was a 4th round pick. You can find those guys in the middle of the draft if that's what you're looking for.

                  I would say if we cant get a high impact defensive player at 28 or what ever it is we try and trade down into the upper half of round 2 and try to get another 2nd rounderor high 3rd round and take Peter Konz C Wisconsin he is so impresive I know we need defense and should take it but if the person we want is not there go for konz he plays great center and pulls like a guard.

                    The Packers defense struggled all season, I'm pessimistic that Nick Collins will return, and the pass rush opposite Clay Matthews was nonexistent. The safeties this year don't look first round caliber so I'm hoping this guy will slip to the Pack: OLB Courtney Upshaw
                    6-2, 265, Alabama
                    Thanks Ted!

                      Premier OLB. Move up if needs be, as far as you can without giving up the farm. A formidable pass rush will help to mask the inadequacies of our defensive backfield. After seeing what happened to this defense after losing Cullen Jenkins with no replacement last offseason this has to be the priority IMO.

                        I agree that Upshaw would be a great pick. I think TT would have to trade up to get him though. It's a possibility though, since it might not have to be a huge move. It would probably cost a 3rd to move from 28 to 20.

                          It's probably time to move Woodson over to Safety anyway, TT moved up to get Clay, so I could see him trading up.

                            Draft defense, O-line & pray for a RB to emerge next season.

                              I could see TT at some point taking a QB and a RB...but other than that, nothing but defense...which means TT won't draft a single Defensive player until the 7th round when he takes a NT.
