So our entire 2020 rookie contribution is expected to come from pick #94 at this point?


Sure, why the $%@# not.

The draft just screams to me that management and la fleur are trying to scream that this is there team.

Little dick syndrome on there behalf when they have one of the best qbs of all time currently on the roster.

Stupid ego &%$@

Why won't a power RB contribute as a rookie?

I mean, he could probably take on all those Danny Vitale reps.

Didn’t realize when we were down 27-0 in second quarter against San Fran we were just a power back away

Can't imagine us taking a whole lot of reps from who's in front of him currently.

Nah, I have a 5th round TE in mind for those.

Look, this is a red zone, short-yardage, and late-game winner for us. He's going to contribute in key situations. He's going to convert some big first downs for us.

I dont know how it could be any worse. Walter already graded both picks as O'Brien grades.

I just dont know how we improved. I know the Saints improved from last year. I know the Vikings improved. Hell the Buccs improved. Cowboys are making a strong push to improve. I think the Rams got a lot better too. The 49ers got a hell of a lot better.

We are the only contender in the NFC who is stockpiling backups. Now we have a 1st place schedule to deal with and what are the chances we are as healthy as last season?

So, just to get this straight. The Packer's strength before the draft was QB and RB, and their first two picks are QB and RB?

Offensive skill position! Overdrafted a bit? I like the player, but wasn't thinking 2nd. Bye bye Aaron Jones.
Hubba Wuh? Why would we not pay Aaron Jones?
Judging by recent contracts he'll be a fortune.
Ah... I hadn't looked at our cap recently. :messedup:

RB not a strength after this season. I know people hate it, but you don't always fix today's problems in the draft. You fix tomorrows.

amen,Gibson could have brought a lot, but where losing Jones, and Dillion is a power back, 4 yards and a cloud of dust, mlf is showing us that small ball is his preference, we may run more then we pass this year,

I liked Ashtyn Davis. Thought if we grabbed him, it would give us a lot more flexibility with Savage.

We have no power back. Now we have a power back. The guy is 247 pounds! He's ultra productive. You'll like him.
The dude ran a 4.53 at that weight!!
Gary ran 4.58 at 277. Color me not impressed.
Gary was the largest player to run under 4.6 EVER. Gary's 40 was literally epic.

No seriously, What the hell is he doing? I mean I understand picking for the future and all. The RB might is the bruiser type for short yardage, but damn.

Aaron Jones is the best red zone RB we've had since Hornung.

If we don't want to sign Jones, I 100% get that. But again, how does this help us this year? Just a question, because I'm honeslty not really seeing a case where our 1, 2, or 4th round picks help us this year. Like I said, I am not a debbie downer, but damn, I feel like we are just tossing away 2020 right now. Don't resign Bulaga or Martinez, downgrade at both spots. Add nothing to help in the draft. Convince me I'm wrong.
