Obviously there are always random hits and exciting developmental options and such in the late 6th and 7th rounds, but as far as my knowledge goes, it really seems like I'm running out of guys. Waiting patiently for these back-to-back 5ths because for me, that's basically where the draft ends in terms of players on my radar or I have expectations of.

The lack of underclassman in this year's draft (lowest in a decade) has really thinned out the draft crop. Can't remember a thinner 7th round in terms of rankings and names. Obviously, there may be "fallers" who we have all heard of who last for some reason there; but for the most part, I'm counting on 2 more picks and some drafted "UDFAs"

My ideal would be Jarvis Brownlee and Dylan McMahon or Beaux Limmer

Wild card intrigue in Jaheim Bell

So apparently the Broncos tricked the Vikings into moving up that 1 pick to take McCarthy. Haha!

Also wouldn't be surprised to see Pratt or Slovis at QB

Gabe Hall DT from Baylor is my guy coming up. 6’6” mammoth who really excelled at DT in the 4-3 but struggled in the 3-4. He’s very much like Brooks from a year ago IMO.

Just noticed Brownlee is gone. Missed that.

I guess Harden or Stiggers (big time development undertaking on that one, though)

Eagles hoping Trotter turns out something like his dad.

I feel like that sucks for Jr, honestly. Hello sir, you are forever in your father's shadow here. Welcome to 3rd string and special teams

Sam Seale literally sitting in this press conference mentioning how badly he needs another Packers Super Bowl while discussing Evan Williams no fewer than 3 times.

Team is about it.

(delayed response watching his video on the website)

woah, Malik Washington is still available? Surprised none of the WR-needy teams scooped him up yet. He honestly reminds me a little of Jayden Reed, which is clearly a compliment at this juncture in the draft.

I'm about to pass out. This is taking so long! Glad we pick soon.

Also Gutey said yesterday that the team used need to break ties but never dipped down from the top of their board to address need. Just to put that in print for the forthcoming after-draft discussions.

We got a C from Duke! Just like we all wanted in round one!

(I haven't looked at this guy at all but am stoked to have a C)

Monk didn't do agility drills, which explains why I didn't look at him (short shuttle is a major Packers OL indicator)

But it looks like he checks all the available boxes--6'3" 308, 32.5 inch arms. under a 5.1 40. solid jumps/explosion. Scouting reports say he's a smooth mover. 31 bench press reps

Cool cool. Solid interior OL option here.

Any word on what we traded?
