Who Should Gutey Draft In The First Round? 1.0

[Joemailman]

I hate that strategy. Leads to Martyball. You take talent above most other considerations.

Oh I agree. My statement (not explained very well) is based on the belief that Landry has comparable talent to any CB who would be available. If that's the case, I think Landry should be the pick.

[Pugger]

I don't give a fuck what you want. The hell with pass rush. Draft the fast receiver - Ridley - and bomb opposing defenses into the abyss of oblivion.

I'm glad you aren't our GM. You are the only person alive who doesn't seem to know our defense needs an infusion of talent. This isn't the best WR draft class by a long shot.

Trevor Davis is an inch taller, .01 second faster in the 40, and has better measurables in everything except bench press (11 to 15 I believe). If the Packers want a guy like Ridley, they just need to use the guy they have. This is on the coaches and scheme. No way the Packers draft Ridley even if available.

Trade down a bit... Okoronkwo, Landry, DJ Moore??

Curious about where Isaiah Oliver's value is at... was hoping he would last to our 2nd pick, but not sure he'll be there.

Would be a very happy Packer fan if we could come away with one of those 3 and Oliver.

That's why I want Landry. He's a lot better than anyone who woild be available in the 2nd round.

says who? have you watched him, or just read others opinions

cause the videos i've seen of him make him look like a JAG, and thats against college talent, not NFL talent

definitely doesn't look like anything special, imo

He was dominant as a junior. Probably should have entered the draft last year. Had an injury-plagued senior year and wasn't as good.

2018 NFL Draft order and needs for every team

@ NO.14. Green Bay Packers

Record: 7-9 (.539)

Comment woodbuck27:

The following agrees with my analysis of a Focus on primary needs for the Green Bay Packers..

Top needs: DB, EDGE, WR, ILB

The skinny: The Packers drafted a CB with their top pick last year (Kevin King), but they still need to upgrade that spot, and the safety position as well.

The departure of Jordy Nelson combined with the lack of production from Randall Cobb means wide receiver could be an early priority. It's time to add some much-needed pass rush off the edge, and Green Bay has to add speed at inside linebacker.

What we fans see and YouTube is hardly enough but all the same:

I need to follow your Que and watch more Video on him (Landry) Thanks red.

There's something about 'EDGE' Marcus Davenport that didn't excite me. Maybe I'm looking at it all wrong but he seems almost Robotic.

Then again, that's exactly why he needs to be our Pick!? I'll take what I have and see who, between Davenport and Landry looks like the best choice

I'll Post on EDGE Marcus Davenport first:

Here's Video on EDGE Rusher Marcus Davenport and it's impressive:

Then there's this:

I'll Post on EDGE Harold Landry (upcoming) in this thread.

[woodbuck27]

Harold Landry WOW ! He's fast and strong and very athletic. Do you like him better or not than EDGE Marcus Davenport that I feature in the previous Post?

[woodbuck27]

I made up my mind after a second third fourth look.

I like Harold Landry over Marcus Davenport.

[run pMc]

Landry is more polished and ready to contribute than Davenport. If Landry is a reach at 14 and you know he'll be there at 20 you try to trade back a few spots and pick up a R2 or R3 pick for another CB or to package with other picks to get back into late R1 for another player.
The thing is, he might be the best pass rusher after Chubb, so someone will probably reach and take him.

I do wonder if Wilkerson is supposed to bring more pass rush and they take a corner...but they need more OLB pass rush, and I don't know where it will come from. Perry/Matthews probably won't stay healthy for 16 and the depth is not keeping opposing QBs up at night.
Are we assuming that our pass rush is coming more from the DL or the OLBs? I lean more towards the latter but that's probably because of Capers' scheme -- I don't know much about Pettine's scheme.

I would be very surprised if they draft offense at 14.

Looking at ** the Packer Roster right now and 'D'.

May the (Luck of whatever!?) be with Mike Pettine. Frankly ** it's a mess ** except on the DL.

Good analysis run pMc.

The POLL shows :

On Monday 19 March 2018 the nod at Packerrats goes to picking at EDGE Rush Harold Landry (3 votes) and Marcus Davenport (2 Votes) over CB Prospect Denzel Ward who has (3 Votes).

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I'm glad you aren't our GM. You are the only person alive who doesn't seem to know our defense needs an infusion of talent. This isn't the best WR draft class by a long shot.

A QB rush could cause some pretty good players to fall down the draft, but odds are, a V-Miller or a K-Mack is not gonna fall to the Pack like the Great Arm of Butte did in 2005. This draft is supposedly deep at corner, and no chance Ward and Fitzpatrick fall to 14.

The Packers currently don't have a legitimate #1 receiver. Ridley could fill that wormhole. Draft Ridley then draft defense.

[Fritz]

Trade up for Chubb so Gutekunst can draft him and then announce at the podium, "I've got a Chubby!"
