Who Do You Want Gute To Draft At #15?

[Spaulding]

Hoping for Calijah Kancey (which might warrant trading down if possible to pick up extra picks as I think he'll go in the 20's) as although he's a beast of a 3 tech it seems he could play 5 technique and would benefit from Clark eating double teams.

[Bretsky]

many think there will be a CB run from 16-20 and Seattle will be looking to move up with GB to get to 15. Just read an article predicting the trade and GB adding a 3rd and another pick.

Get another 2nd; we can't draft in round 3

[Sparkey]

Ideally a qb falls and the Packers trade back and add more picks in the 25-85 range.

[Fritz]

God what if Guter picked up another third and hit on them both?

End times.

[jklowan]

I vote for edge - Van ness at 15 or trade down for OT Darnell Wright

It would be a testament to the triumph of the human spirit. Did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? No!

Did we quit when Ted drafted Damarius Randall and Quentin Rollins in 2015? NO!

[Deputy Nutz]

Myles Murphy was my vote if he was there. He seems to be too gifted to pass up or trade back. I wouldn't trade up for him.

Classic line from a classic movie.

Problem is, I'll probably be quoting a different movie after Day 1:
"Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue"

Obviously I was in a different head space in 2015 when it came to the Packers, but this was probably when Thompson should have been put to pasture. At the time I enjoyed it.

[Tony Oday]

So glad this is his last draft

TE Michael Mayer

[Joemailman]

I'm not for Mayer at 15, but I won't be strongly opposed if it happens. I think he's one of the safest picks in the draft. Very high floor, almost no chance he's a bust.

I agree that he's a safe pick. My second choice is Van Ness

My experience with people who've been diagnosed (my father-in-law, my brother) is that after the "official" diagnosis, people begin to go back and re-think what came before, and most of the time come to the conclusion that the dementia was probably developing long, long before the actual diagnosis was made.

I think this may have been what happened with Thompson, and I don't know if you can tie that to draft picks, but he certainly lost his luster as a draftnik at this point. Still had some good picks after that, but not nearly so many. I blame Murphy for letting Thompson stay too long. Not only was it a disservice to the team, I think it was a disservice to Thompson, who by the accounts I've read really just liked the scouting part best and probably would've been fine having the GM duties taken and assigned to scout once again.

I have to say I'm not a huge Mark Murphy fan. Obviously the team has had success, and it's a damn money machine, but as far as some of his organizational decisions, I'm not a huge fan.
