Never too early 2020 NFL Draft Thread

[Deputy Nutz]

Man this draft is going to be a riot. A couple of really top heavy position groups and others not so much. I would say receiver and offensive tackle are heavy along with running back, then you have positions like linebacker and tight end that are light in the ass. It will be interesting to see the runs on positional groups throughout the draft.

[GB-Brandon]

Was listening to PFF today (Steve and Sam), and they're speculating that Reagor will be long gone by pick 30.

They traded up for Savage so I don’t see any reason Gute won’t do it for a receiver the Packers Love.

[Deputy Nutz]

I understand moving up if say they were only two or three first round caliber players, but this draft is loaded at receiver. This would have to be a in the moment trade because one of the top three guys started to fall. If Ruggs was there at 25 It might be worth the expense to move up and grab him or Lamb, or Juedy. I am not trading up for any other receiver.

It’s gonna come down to when the run on them starts. I’m hearing lots of teams want one of these top receivers.

Depends on where teams or the Packers see the drop off.

If you remember last year the Packers could of stood pat and got Juan Thornhill, Adderly, Abram or Rapp but they jumped off the reservation for Savage.

[Deputy Nutz]

Yeah, the guy I liked was Gardner-Johnson from Florida, I had no idea why he dropped so far, and then word after the draft spread about significant character concerns.

PFF said they've heard of 3 GM's who have Reagor as their 3rd WR.

I haven't looked at Lamb at all b/c he is supposed to be long gone by the time we pick, but I did look at Juedy some. I put Reagor pretty close to Juedy.

The guy I don't want at 30 is Shenault.

Would be thrilled with Mims or Reagor.

I don't want another Michigan reject. Pass on People dude.

I"m ok with most of the other top WR's. I saw somebody mock Pittman to us at 30; yuk there

If the WR's go like crazy, and they might. One of the Big 3 ILB's might fall right into our lap

than we move up in round two and still get a WR around 45 to 50

[Bretsky]

I would love to see Jonathan Taylor go to Pittsburg or KC

[Bretsky]

Aiyuk Shennault Jaeger Jefferson Mims and the big 3. Be happy with any of them

[Bretsky]

Baltimore is hungry for a ILB

Saints and Baltimore seem to be mocked to both taking Queen and Murray quite a bit.

Wonder what the cost to jump up 3 spots over the Ravens ?



HOODY GENIUS IS BUDDIES WITH SAN FRAN

Would not be surprised at all to see deals between them draft day

3 predictions from Lombardiave.com

INTERESTING ONE

1. Trade up for a top-tier receiver
Okay, it may not be a bold prediction to say the Packers will trade up in the draft. GM Brian Gutekunst has shown he’s not afraid to make trades in the draft. But I mean the Packers are really going to trade up. I’m thinking as high as 12.

With 10 draft picks and limited cap space, I think the Packers will definitely look to move up in the draft at some points and have the draft picks to do it. My bold prediction is that they will trade up to get a receiver like CeeDee Lamb. This is a deep receiver draft, but a player like Lamb would absolutely make the Packers one of the top offenses in the NFC, if not the NFL. Other receivers would include Henry Ruggs III, Jerry Jeudy, or Justin Jefferson.

[texaspackerbacker]

Ruggs would be my top WR - on the slim slim chance we trade up. I'd rather have Mims than any of those others mentioned except for Ruggs.

I'm not convinced, though, that we take a WR in the first or maybe not even in the second, given the depth of WRs in the draft.

[pbmax]

Gutenkunst today in phone PC (that actually did cut out once ):

@Peter_Bukowski
Brian Gutekunst made it clear that while he thinks the WR class is deep, they're not going to sit and wait for someone to be there. Adds he doesn't expect them to "wait very long."

TRANSLATION: THEY WILL NOT TRADE UP NOW

There has to be at least one major glorious failure attributed to failed tech. Just hoping it isn't the Packers. 'Cheat flubbing a franchise QB pick would be the best.

Trust me, its worth the click:

Remember when Minnesota didn't get their card turned in on time FOR A TOP TEN PICK and JAX jumped ahead of them?
