2022 NFL Draft Talk

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Yeah right. I suppose for some of ya'all, it's all about not losing in the playoffs. Well, any of these idiotic get rid of Rodgers scenarios would certainly accomplish that. You can't lose in the playoffs if you're not in the playoffs, and not having Rodgers would likely seal that situation for a decade or so.

Maybe, but from where I am looking, it is better to play for the future than play for 1 year out, and I am old so may not see the next super bowl run..

Fuck it rodgers and Adams to eagles for hurts #15,16,19 and 51.
Then we resign Douglas and Campbell. And probably z.
Then drama ends and we don't have to worry about losing nfccg anymore

This is where I'm at, that is a fantastic haul. You could fix alot of problems, roll with Love for a year if he's not the answer you have a ton of draft capitol to get the next guy in 2023.

If we ARE forced to trade Rodgers, no way I want a package that includes fucking Jalen Hurts. I'd rather roll with the Love Machine for a year and see what he truly has.

How could you not want love hurts!

RAS scores of Gute's 1st round picks:

[HarveyWallbangers]

Post Christian Watson's RAS score. My guy from NDSU showed out.

He is 6'4" and ran 4.36 40 with 38.5" vertical and 11'4" broad jump. He also looked good in the drills. After being named the top WR at the Senior Bowl, he could be taken in the first round. He actually fits what the Packers like. They just don't take WRs in the round 1.

Elite, but incomplete. Did he not run agility drills, or did hey not post results yet?

[HarveyWallbangers]

He didn't run the agility drills. A lot of guys skipped various tests this year. It was weird. I think only 13 WRs / TEs did all of the testing yesterday.

David Bell of Purdue should have skipped everything. I think he was seen as a 2nd round pick. Wonder how much he'll drop.

Brian Gutekunst is going to have an orgasm over Christian Watson. I am not a big R1 receiver guy I have little doubt if he's there Gooter will strongly consider it. He sounds like a more athletic MVS to me. On the other hand, there's this, where he tests almost identical to Denzel Mims. I don't watch (m)any games etc so I have no idea. I lean on Joe and Harvey https://twitter.com/MathBomb/status/1499774107772149768

Here is some context on receivers opting out of agility drills.

It's like Charlie Brown running up to kick the football. Packer fans thinking Packers will draft a wide receiver in the 1st round.

Mims and Watson are really comparable athletically (Watson has him slightly beat in the things he tested in), but I think they are different players. I saw Mims as more of a contested catch guy. Watson really showed some route running chops at the Senior Bowl. He's able to sink his hips in and out of breaks like a smaller player. Watson could replace MVS's deep speed. He also ran a lot of the jet sweeps that MLF likes. He was a really good kick returner in college. And the dude is a willing blocker--another trait that MLF values. I'm not holding my breath that the Packers would get him though.

[Joemailman]

Chad Reuter at NFL.com had Packers taking Watson in 3rd round in his last pre-combine draft. That's probably a pipedream now. Will be interesting to see where people list him post-combine.

[run pMc]

I think they will go OLB or DL in R1. I don't think WR is the pick unless someone falls to them. I do think they'll take a WR on Day 2 and 3, cut Cobb, and let MVS walk.

With or without Davante, they need to draft and develop better talent at receiver.

As for Watson, he's a bit of a raw project and I have trouble seeing him as a R1 pick. Lots of potential, but his tape is a little inconsistent and that's against FCS level. I think he fits what MLF likes to do and would be a viable replacement if not upgrade for MVS.
The combine results help but I think he's a R2 at best and an R5 at worst. If you're on the clock and Treylon Burks is available I'm taking Burks over him.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Watson seems like a likeable, intelligent young man.
