NFL Draft, Finding Future Packer Difference Makers!

We have about 3 months to find players to make this good team, even better!  We will analyze many of the websites for ideas & players!  We will start with an ESPN list - their top 32 as of this week:




First, the top 20 players will probably not be there for the Packers, drafting at #30, but, if any slide through to the Pack, we MUST have a look.  And, remember, this is ONE list, with more to come and the next 3 months will have players sliding up and down the draft order!

My first NEED, is to Aaron help!  Wide Receivers:

Jerry Jeudy - 6'1" - 192 lbs - LSU
CeeDee Lamb - 6'2" - 191 lbs - Oklahoma
Henry Ruggs - 6'0" - 190 lbs - Alabama
Justin Jefferson - 6'3" - 192 lbs - LSU
Tee Higgins - 6'4" - 215 lbs - Clemson
Laviska Stenault - 6'2" - 220 lbs - Colorado

First thing I noticed, the teams - LSU, Alabama, Clemson, Oklahoma - winners!   Next, overall a tall group of receivers, will need to check their speed!  Packers are still looking for more speed! (Chiefs & 49ers speed)  Attitude, athleticism, and hands will all be checked.

Defensive Tackers:  oh boy, that last game run defense!  We need a stopper, someone that will demand double teams!!

Derrick Brown - 6'4" - 325 lbs - Auburn
Javon Kinlaw - 6'5" - 308 lbs - S. Carolina
Raekwon Davis - 6'6" - 315 lbs - Alabama

Nice size & from good programs!  Just like our wide receivers, need to see speed & agility!  Plus, of course, film study!  But, if any of these 3 slip, need to take a long look!



Next 12 will possibly slide down tp Packers.  2 wide receivers, 1 defensive tackle & an interesting offensive tackle:

WR - Brandon Aiyuk - 5'11" - 203 - Arizona St
WR - DaVonta Smith - 6'1" - 175 lbs - Alabama
DT - Marvin Wilson - 6'5" - 311 lbs - Florida St
OT - Alex Leatherwood - 6'6" - 310 - Alabama

Love the size of the big men!  The wide receivers again must pass the smell test.  But these 32 players will begin our search for taking the Packers to there next Super Bowl, IT IS TIME!
