Gute sucks.

[paco]

This isn't an out-there pick. Many thought he'd sneak into the 1st. He should be a good compliment to Jaire. Very fast and he's got the size.

[Pckfn23]

Here we go. DO NOT base the pick on media rankings. Most people wanted CB. Thought it was a 1st round need. The Packers liked Stokes at this point more than other CBs.

Such a horrible take in this day and age, IMO.

There is no master sheet of where prospects are ranked.

Exactly what I forecasted and low and behold it comes from one I had in mind too.

I just never heard much about Stokes being a first rounder but

[Scott4Pack]

I like the pick. He has the size and speed. He finds the ball. He has good measureables, right?
If he coaches up well, he’s gonna be good. And this was a position of need.

But I am surprised that we didn’t pick Barmore or Koramoah.

[Pckfn23]

I have a feeling that due to the lack of access to personnel the draftniks are going to be WAY off on prospect "rankings," especially after round 1. This will then lead the consistently cynical to claim how poorly we did drafting as they are basing their own rankings off of draftnik rankings. I could see us taking a player who the draftniks sees as only a late 2nd round guy and hear the screams of "REACH" and "FIRE!" It's going to be SOOO much fun...

100%

I mean the dude is the most athletic player in Green Bay history.

Basically saying I thought Stokes would be a second rounder is not that Hot of a take or controversial. Its just an option.

[go pak go]

His weakness is concerns on fluidity and needs to improve on his technical skills.

Overall I can't be upset with this pick. Give him a year to develop behind King. If we hit with Stokes....we will hit.

Great measurables

nobodies really screamed that. Just a couple people didnt expect the pick and thought he would go in the second.

+1

[BF004]

Definitely in a spot where he can come in and earn some reps week 1, but we also don't have to throw him out there a ton either right away.


I mean, CB, other than C or G is probably our biggest need on paper, we hit it in round 1, guy with great size, amazing athelicism, good production from a big program, should be ready to contribute early.


Here's hoping Gute's 1st round CB's are like Ted's 2nd round WR's and 4th round OL.

Ya, cause "Gute sucks" it's really screaming that...

[TheGreenMan]

Could have been Ahmad Carroll fellas.

[Foosball]

He doesn’t tackle well in the run game. Offensive Coordinaters will attack him with WR screens.

Speed demon though.
