DRAFT DAY WISHES FOR ROUND ONE PICK 14

[Maxie the Taxi]

No punters taken?

Dickson was available in the 7th round.

[BZnDallas]

In every draft there is at least one GM/Owner who will reach big time and take a player none of the "experts" saw as worthy of taking in the upper half of the draft. So if this happens along with a run on these QBs we might get lucky and a real gem "falls" to us.

I can get behind this Pugger! Unfortunately a lot of those times were us 😳

I like your #45 a lot.

You want a slow cornerback at #14? Can't they get that later in the draft?

Packers got an Iowa corner with 4.56 speed in the fifth round. His name was Micah Hyde. #14 better be a physical specimen unavailable later in the draft who can make a significant difference.

[pbmax]

Maybe the big difference between Pettine and Capers is that Pettine likes converting corners to safeties, rather than every DB to slot cornerback.

He ran much faster at his pro day

on another note the PATS might be looking to trade up, I am all for trading down to 23 if we pick up another 2nd or 2 in the swap. The trades we have done with New England always seem to work out in our favor. Looks like Mayfield is how they are interested in.

You know, jk, I have been thinking about this a lot lately. My own temperment, generally, is that it's good to trade down and get extra picks unless you have what you think is a superstar dropping into your lap. But the Packers have traded down, and sometimes it works out (Jordy Nelson, maybe Kevin King), and sometimes it doesn't. However, I'm kind of tired of all these maybe-they'll-be-good guys at the end of the first round - the Sherrods and Datone Joneses and Damarious Randalls. Even Nick Perry was one of those guys - a late first rounder who may work out, and he sorta has, but is he a star? They need some "wow" players now. I say if GuttyPunt sees a guy he's convinced is a soon-to-be-star when they get to #8 or 9, trade up and get the guy. Sure, you need some Micah Hydes and some Blake Martinezes, but man, you really need a difference-maker.

Normally I would agree, but it seems we need Pass Rusher/CB & OL

I think trading down this year could be warranted as there really is no player that stands out unless your at the tip top of the draft. For instance I like Isaiah Oliver out of Colorado, but 14 seems to high to take him as he can be had later. The pass rushers all have question marks so why not drop down and take say Sam Hubbard , Sweat or Arden Key(who I think will drop and may be the best pass rusher in this class), not sure it's a big drop and you potentially address a bunch of holes on our roster. I would love to leave this draft with 4 players in the first 2 rounds. Those players being a CB/Edge/OL/TE, my dream is trading down and coming away with ONEIL/OLIVER/Goedert/Key in the 1st 60 picks, ymmv.

Josh Jackson at 14 would not be exciting

So that will be the pick then

more and more teams are putting their #1s in the slot and creating mismatches. look at julio jones. a pretty good percentage of his targets are from the slot. you'll need quality at that spot too more as time goes on.

Sure, but its not exactly new. Packers used to do that with Driver then Jennings when they happened upon Jones and Nelson.

I have to agree with you there, Bretsky. I'm hoping one of the rock-star defenders, like Chubb, will fall just enough for Gutty to move up and get 'em.
