Trade down... (I was half-right)

[PeaveyFury]

Trade down.....

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow, they better have gotten a haul

[JosephC]

No, don't trade down. Huge falloff after those two IMO, can't miss out on both.

 

I think they should go James just because of need but I wouldn't be a bit upset with Edmunds. Can't believe Edmunds has made it down this far.

[JosephC]

Holy smokes, 13 spots?

[PeaveyFury]

Wonder what the deal is.... not a fan of this unless we got everything from N.O.

[CheezWizHed]

gonna LMAO when we take some guy nobody thinks should go before pick 30.

 

I'm going to LMAO when the Packers draft down and pick someone everyone thought they would draft at 14...

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Saints don't have much. I bet its a 2019 1st

[LouisEly]

Saints want successor for Brees (Jackson). Makes a lot of sense.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Packers got a 1st this year, a 1st next year and a 5th this year. Man I hope the Saints suck next year.

[superfly]

LMAO what a joke.

[brewcrewdue80]

Guess we needed more picks. C talent depth vs B/B+

[young guns]

If saints take Jackson, I wonder if there was a bidding war between them and NE.

[JosephC]

Saints don't have much. I bet its a 2019 1st

 

That sounds like right on the money analysis to me. Packers already had 12 picks this year, not really much sense in acquiring many more (even when factoring in trade-up's later in this draft).

[LouisEly]

Good call on the 2019 1st - I like it.

 

I don't buy the discounting of future picks. There is an unknown quantity to it, but just as likely the pick is better than expected (injuries) than worse than expected. Also, the league will still be in business, the Pack will still have a team, it's another 1st round pick.

[PeaveyFury]

Yep, a 5th and their 19 first

[Fear The Chorizo]

Packers probably have something lined up with another team in front of them to move back up...too many picks not to use as draft capital to miss out on an impact player at a position of need for them

[JosephC]

Is Jackson right for that Saint's offense? Could be a shocker coming up here.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Great trade for the Packers future. Saints are no lock to be very good next year. Could be a decent pick. Anything can happen.

[PeaveyFury]

Yeah, I wonder if they’ll come back up.

[superfly]

I'm sorry but if there isn't a corresponding move this is a total joke (or they have a crystal ball and know Edmunds/James is falling). WE HAVE NO CORNERBACKS OR SAFETIES AND BARELY LINEBACKERS, I REPEAT we have no CB, S, LB.

[brewcrewdue80]

Ugly. Terrible

 

Trade down 13spots for a 5th only? The 1st next season could be in the mid-20s where you just moved back to. A season where you will likely also pick mid 20. Should jave gotten a 3rd this year vs the 5th

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Packers must have similar grades on their next group of players. I bet they go pass rusher at 27. Maybe davenport is still there?

 

LOL, I take that back. Saints gave up a ransom for Davenport.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Gotta say I love that move. In the NFL that could easily end up a top 10 pick. But wherever it is i love it.

[PeaveyFury]

Holy Crap. All that for Davenport?
