AJ Dillon injury

And we didn’t get the “Missing Piece” so hopefully this year it will be ranked as a higher concern/need!

I don't have the faith you do

I think we may need another CB, and ILB and a RT as well.

I can see both sides or all sides of this one. As I think Bobble has pointed out, when you look at the last four or five big running back contracts signed, only Kamara (or is it Kamala? I get him mixed up with the VP) seems worth the green. The others are hurt and/or ineffective now, rather suddenly. Yet I think Jones is not that kind of player - he's gotten better and better at staying on the field, and runs hard as hell without getting hurt. He's a bigger better playmaker than I think many on here give him credit for - think of the years and years of mediocrity at running back for the Packers (I think Brandon Williams and Starks and Grant were all pretty mediocre, and Lacey pigged out after two good years). And he can block now, and he can catch the ball well. So those of you saying "yeah just draft his replacement in the fifth round" - i don't think it's that simple.

Yet I can also see that within the context of the cap, it might make more sense to sign Linsley than Jones. You have to have a good offensive line, period. Yet for all those saying Williams/Dillon could replace Jones (which I disagree with), you could argue that Patrick (who has been groomed to play center and got an extension before anyone thought he would) could take over for Linsley, and the beat could go on. Sure, Linsley is better than Patrick, but Jones is better than Williams/Dillon.

Glad I'm not the GM. But I think most here agree that King should be offered a one-year prove-it contract, and if he gets a better deal elsewhere, see ya. Draft his replacement this next draft. I'm sure Gute is kicking himself for whiffing on Josh Jackson. Wasted pick. Dude couldn't even play ST well enough to be made active the last few games. If Gute had hit on a corner instead of picking Jackson, King walking would not be an issue.

As good as Kamara is (a helluva lot better than the similar name you talked about), Jones is better, a lot better IMO.

As much as I like Linsley (and woulda signed him in a heartbeat over Bakhtiari), he is absolutely not the priority Jones is. We would be little or no worse without Linsley, similar to losing Bakhtiari. Without Jones, though, we would be a LOT worse - more than anybody other than Rodgers himself. I'd put Davante up there too except the team did ok even without him.

Signing King to a one year deal if it was for any significant money at all, as it would probably need to be, would be the worst way to go - a cap it the face value of the contract. Josh Jackson probably will end up as a wasted pick, but I really don't think he has performed any worse than King when he has had to start for King. There's always gonna be some hits and some misses. Jaire and Jackson? I'd say one out of two ain't bad. On draft day, I woulda predicted it would be the other way around with those two. I suspect attitude and being pissed off at not playing more is part of Jackson's problem. I wouldn't be surprised to see him go elsewhere and maybe not be an all-pro, but at least a solid starter.

They don't draft need like they used to and that's a relief for me. I was disappointed as most with not getting a WR last year but they have targeted THEIR guys and they won't draft most receivers (not in rounds 1 to 3). That's just how they role and it has worked out well in the past. They are picky about who they take. And that's a good thing. It could be much worse: we could have the Ravens' FO drafting our receivers.

Anyways. They will take 1 or 2 most likely next year. R-E-L-A-X. Much easier than drafting anything on D for this FO.

I am “RELAXED.” They have to draft a Fucken receiver if they don’t do something in free agency. They have nobody signed past 2021. And even if they get one in FA they will still draft one if they are true to their word in the context of a “Draft & Develop Organization.” They have to keep the rotation going. They simply can’t put it off any longer!!!

I just think it’s hilarious some people want to spend over 100 million on RB’s but almost have a stroke when I mention getting the “Missing Piece”!!!!!!

[Jaire]

But they are missing a DT.

And they have plugging temporary filler in the hole at missing RT for a year now.

So no. I don't think they are missing a WR until they haven't drafted one in 2021. They are definitely behind but not as bad as the trenches. They still haven't teplaced Bulaga and according to my watch he left a year ago.

[RashanGary]

yup

4 for Williams would be fine

4 for Williams would be kind of ideal. 6 is the max.

If you saw my “Way To Early Mock” I have them going DT in 1st and trading up for WR in 2nd and Packers are great at finding OL in mid rounds so as you like to say “R-E-L-A-X”

Okay Fine, I’ve posted it once and since you won’t stop this is who “They Should Be Targeting” in 1st round. Total Stud!!! Watched him all season. He was actually recruited to Bama so he is SEC vetted and talented. Hope he can make it to us in short handed DL draft. He would solve the problems lined up next to KC!!!!

[GB-Brandon]

So Yes, we have to get the “Missing Piece” on defense and on Offense!!

[Fritz]

Cripes, they're about to play for a spot in the Superb Owl, and you guys are already ruminating about the draft.

Enjoy the game, fellas.

I say again, the Packers certainly could sign all of them. Just the same, if the $6-8 million figure is accurate, it would be unwise to sign Williams.

You can't know that. You don't know what each player is asking.
