Brandon Marshall says Packers wasted Rodgers career

[GB-Brandon]

First of all I would of addressed the WR problem way way before this last draft. Courtland Sutton was the target or player I would of came away with in the 2018 draft. He was my favorite player in the whole draft!

In the 2019 draft they should of targeted Parris Campbell. Although I would of been fine with Deebo Samuel as well. I would of came away with Campbell because I’m just in love with his speed and fluid movement. He had a tough first year with injuries. Would still take him in a heartbeat.

With securing these players then I like the trade up but I would of taken Jordyn Brooks instead right in front of Seattle!!!

Gute is three years late rebuilding the receiving Corp.

[GB-Brandon]

Gute has had opportunity after opportunity to bolster the receiving corp which he chose not to do which left him in a position in the 2020 draft where he didn’t like the cost to play for one of the top prospects so he threw in the towel. He should of never let it get to that point.

Even with that said he could of still made a move for Denzel Mims in the second. I would rather have Tee Higgins then Jordan Love.

I’ve also heard around places that people don’t wanna talk about the Jordan Love pick anymore. Well I got news for everyone. Either way their gonna be talking about the Jordan Love pick for the next 5-10 years and maybe longer.

You weren't here to tell us what we should have done the last 3 years, so its hearsay....as in I doesn't matter what you say would have done cuz there is no proof. I asked right now, this year what you would have done. What is your brilliant move. Your main theme is you would have done exactly as I would have, but with a different ILB. We will see which ILB is a better pro.

Your next move was up for Mims. I assume we would have had to give up another pick to do that, but you don't declare who you would have sacrificed. You just would have gotten Mims. Ok, challenge accepted anyway. We will see if Mims is more productive than our #2 WR this year or even next. I doubt he would have moved the needle.

Edit: The nice thing about you choosing Mims is that he is on a VERY weak WR group. He should have all the opportunity in the world. Also, we absolutely don't have Dillon now.

I pray we are talking about this pick ten years from now. That means love is a game changer. If he was just a horrible bust we would not be talking about it anymore.

No. Mims would not be move in “Round 2” If I’m not allowed to have the guys I would of drafted already. I would of went after Reagor or Aiyuk but most likely Aiyuk depending on the cost. I have mentioned Aiyuk over 100 times on this forum leading up too and after the draft.

They could of Packaged their 3rd and still gotten Aiyuk or Reagor and still manueuvered around to get Deguara in the 4th. Most likely the pick would of Been Aiyuk looking at the draft board and getting ahead of the Niners.

So if I’m stuck with Gute’s already failed drafting early I’d take Aiyuk and ante up our 3rd instead of the 4th to get the job done.

If he is a horrible bust that leads us back to NFL purgatory it will most definitely be talked about for years to come.

I can’t believe people are still in denial that Rodgers will even be here next season.

[GB-Brandon]

I doubt anybody was just sitting there in the 3rd waiting to jump all over Deguara. Not too many teams even draft fullbacks anymore let alone even have one on their roster.

[GB-Brandon]

We passed on Lucas Niang to draft Deguara. That’s probably one everyone should watch while there at it. He will start at Guard for the Chiefs this year but eventually swing outside to RT.

There was our Bulaga replacement.

[GB-Brandon]

My attitude toward the receiving Corp would of been similar to Thompson in the sense that I would be funneling talent into that group almost on a yearly basis and keeping the shelves stocked. Keep the “Ferrari With Snow Tires” running hot.

This approach of just letting it die and becoming an embarrassment and eye sore of the roster when most of the roster has a chance to compete is just crazy.

So now you have named 3 different receivers you would have taken. Way to hedge. Too bad you only get one pick. But I know...Gutes should get the right one out of those 3 cuz you would have...and you wouldn't have had to trade up in round 2 to get the guy who went a few picks in front of us...and you probably would still have Dillon as well. You are that brilliant arm chair GM that gets 7 firsts every year I guess.

I asked you to tell me what you would have done and you rewrite 3 years and give me 9 scenarios for this year. Man, must be nice to second guess everyone.

I will hold you to the final answer though. You would have moved up a bit more than we did and taken Aiyuk. That is what we will judge you on. For my money, Aiyuk probably doesn't have a great first 2 years.

Yeah, i would of went after Aiyuk considering your pigeon holing me into addressing it “This Year With This Draft” based on our draft position. I like Aiyuk a lot and he would of been a star in this offense and would of started immediately.

The bottom line is Gute has had 3 years to shore up this receiving group whether free agency, the draft or via trade and he has completely failed.

Deguara ain't a fullback. He's an inline TE

[Patler]

A tidbit for GB-B:

In the past 5 drafts, 62 receivers have been taken in rounds 1-3.
31 teams have drafted at least one of those 62.
I think we all know the only team that did not draft at least one

[GB-Brandon]

At 6’2 I’m not certain Deguara will survive in the NFL as an every down “IN-Line TE”. He might have some value there on 3 TE sets but I see him being used as primarily an H-Back and expanded fullback role.

To me LaFluer is attempting a virtual copycat of Kyle Juszczyk of the Niners here.

When you consider the massive success rate the Packers have had drafting receivers early it’s even more baffling to me they haven’t done it since D. Adams.
