Never too early 2020 NFL Draft Thread

Latest Athletic Mock Draft has the Green Bay Packers taking Zach Baun. That kinda confused me

Some think Baun has the versatility to play both inside and outside.

That might work.

A first round Edge who can rush the passer and produce (haven't seen that in a long long time) and a guy to fill at ILB.

I'm not that confident in him as a ILB , but if he gives us that he's a three down LB and can hide Gary's deficiencies and play the ILB as well

I still have some hope for Gary... seems to be working hard in the offseason.

I think Baun is okay... little undersized and not special at anything.

My hope at 30 is still Mims, but I'm starting to see him mocked further and further up the board... in the 20-25 range.

Gallimore seems to be dropping for some reason, and I might be okay with Kmet if we can't sign Henry in FA.

Wouldn't be crazy about Kmet at 30 though.

One worry about Gary at Michigan was he was trying to do a lot of self promoting/building a brand for himself; so I'm not sure any of this posting of his workouts is a good or bad thing. I just want some elite production out of the #12 pick like some who were drafted behind him have already showed.

I don't see many mocks with Mims getting picked ahead of us. I'm seeing a lot of top of round two.

Mims is going in the first... just hoping it's at 30

IF one of the top two ILB are there I'd grab them.

I'm not sure if I'd take a OT or Mims. But most mocks have Jones going before we pick

I think Jones and Queen will be gone for sure. Have to look at Murray some more.

I'm trying to find some other options to Mims, although I think Mims is as good as any WR in this draft.

Some people have Blacklock heading to us, I like Gallimore, Ezra Cleveland is getting some buzz, same thing for Kmet.

Not sold on any of those guys other than Mims. If he's there at 30, I'd run the card up there and not look back. Really like him.

I'd love any of the top 3 but they are good as gone. It think there is going to be a run of WR's ahead of us. I'd really like to have Mims or Jefferson or Shenault at 30 as far as the WR's go

I am hoping an OT or DL falls to us. You can get Greg Jennings in the second round here. Like C is for cookie, That’s good enough for me

I"m not sure you can get Greg Jennings at the "end" of the 2nd. I think they might be pretty picked through by pick 60

Mark down this rare event: I agree with CMI. The WR group is so deep in this draft that we can get what we need in the second, maybe even third round. I'd much rather get a top D Lineman in the first round. The need is not as bad for an O Lineman, and history of drafting first round O Lineman, Packers and teams in general, is not a very good thing.

Actually I think GB's history of drafting OL in round one is pretty good. But I don't think there are too many. I'm going to test my long long term memory here and you can tell me who I misssed

Brian Bulaga
Ken Ruttgers
John Michaels
Ross Verba

I think those were all OK; but I can't think of any others except

Tony Mandarich, which was an epic horrid bust considering Barry Sanders, Derrick Thomas, and Deon Sandgers were the next three best players

Jalen Reagor is a pretty good comp to Jennings.

If I knew he'd be as good as Jennings. I'd say spend the 30th pick on him, but that's a big dart throw.

And he won't be there at 60... that's the catch 22. A lot of these guys are tailor made 2nd rounders, but they'll all be gone by our 2nd pick.
