It's amazing that TE Jalen Wydermyer may not get drafted. A month or so ago he was talked about as a day 2 pick.

He had a terrrrrrible Pro Day and, then, on more than one occasion, really scared team's off with his lack of self-awareness. He completely sabotaged his career. And, quickly made himself a UDFA candidate more than anything.

That's a 3rd-4th  round talent who, with proper coaching, could be a future 10 year starting OT in the League. Just incredible value. Goodness i LOVE this draft.

Exactly and the Packers have a history of fixing those issues.  Boom! Going, Going, Gone, It's outta here...

Walker in the 7th is nuts.

Just wanted to drop in and say I appreciate the posts/updates on this thread. Been great to follow along these past 3 days!

I really like Isaih Pacheco. Such a likable player. Literally the only Rutgers player that didn't give up versus Wisconsin - played hard and through the whistle to the very end. Such a classic Chiefs pick. I love the way the Ravens and Chiefs draft.

Hey, thanks for chiming in! We're all happy to post and glad you found our blather useful. It's a positive environment more than anything which is very refreshing when it comes to Packers draft talk. ?

WRs Justyn Ross and Kevin Austin Jr. are still sitting out there. Can't believe both have lasted this long. Ross's talent level and measureables aren't very far removed from someone like Drake London, and Austin has good size and legit deep speed. If the Packers want to grab one and add more competition at that position, I would think either would stand a solid shot at making thhe team.

With a name like 'Russ Yeast' I think the young Safety (Kansas State, Rams 7th Rd pick) really missed out on an opportunity to play baseball for the Brewers organization. A sport change is still a possibility. I'm going to reach out to his agent.

Seconded. And it's a great learning experience. I think I've gained more knowledge this year from the discussion here and other sources than I have in past drafts.  Bravo Guys!

I think what I learned more than anything in our draft cycle is we have a legitimate Draft Expert in our midst with @LouisEly. I love the Draft and I study it semi-regularly, but I'm nowhere near the League of Louis. Incredibly good output.

Another youngster missing out on a seriously needed sport change to the Major Leagues. Trenton Gill (NC State, Punter, 7th Rd to the Bears) the Marlins need talent in those lower levels. Let's get on the phone with your reps and start cashing in on those endorsement deals.

NoNo to JoJo?

[HarryDoyle]

So Coan is still on the board.

[LouisEly]

Not surprised they've gone DL and OL in the 7th given that they were just short on bodies at those positions going in.  Prior to the draft they only had 9 OL and 5 DL on the roster and two of the OL are strictly centers (as far as we know).  As I mentioned before, day 3 is sometimes about getting depth at thin positions.

[LouisEly]

Toure!  Got another one!

If he’s still available: Samori Toure, WR, Nebraska – Badgers fans will remember Toure being wide open during the Nebraska game, and Toure then did the same thing at the Shrine game. Toure transferred from Montana where he dominated FCS, and showed he could do the same at FBS. Outstanding route runner who is fluid in and out of his breaks, creating great separation. Reportedly ran in the 4.4’s at their pro day. Not as big as advertised (6’1”, 191), but puts in great effort in blocking.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Samori Toure with the last Packers pick. Saw that name mentioned a good bit. 

[PeaveyFury]

Toure is such a great cap off of this draft.

[Joseph Zarr]

Toure!!!! YESSSSssssss! OMG. I can't take it.

[Joseph Zarr]

[LouisEly]

A bit surprised they didn't grab a developmental corner somewhere as they only have seven on the roster.  I'd expect them to grab a couple UDFA corners and at least one UDFA safety.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Three wideouts, all with a good chance to make the final roster. All bring a varied skill set, but check most of the boxes the Packers look for in their perimeter wideouts. 

[patrickgpe]

I understand draft grades are futile, but you have to give them an A- at worst. Tremendous value. It’s hard for me to say who was their worse pick. I don’t think it exists;

[NBBrewFan]

Double dipping for the MVS Replacement (Doubs & Touri)?  And a future DA replacement (Watson)?

That’s my only fault and why i don’t give them an A, No CB’s
