I still like some CBs such as:
gamble on traits for Zah Frasier
gamble on post-injury bounce-backs with Jordan Hancock or Tomi Hill
try a pure nickel like Upton Stout or Cobee Bryant
I could get with Sai'vion Jones at EDGE or maybe Jack Sawyer. I bet Swinson will go before we pick again
Sorrell from Texas could be a nice addition
David Walker from Central Arkansas doesn't have the length we want but he's a well-regarded sleeper (and is the guy who beat Belton once at the Senior Bowl if I recall correctly)
Still like some LB/STers, too.
Tons of OL I like along the way, too.
Stout off the board.

Sai'vion off the board! Dang! He was a guy I liked more than I admitted. He's still so young and has good explosion for his size. Ugh. I would really have lived him as EDGE 4 or 5 for us

All the people in the comments, who have never been on the Lambeau property, saying the numbers are made up. When the NFL requires an app to enter the groubds and knows exactly how many were there.
I rode my bike down that hill as a kid (when there was more of a hill before the 2003 reno that added the atrium), my goal was always to get to pretty much exactly where the draft stage is by coasting after the initial pedaling getting started. Good times.

Everyone on espn is afraid to say the truth about shadeur. They keep saying they are perplexed and have no reason for why he wasn’t picked. The truth is simple: he acted like a jackass all pre draft process and teams don’t want that at the helm

Even worse, they don’t want that as a backup.

I've reviewed the team by team draft hauls. I always like to look at each class and think wholistically about how well teams are doing at collecting players and improving themselves (I'm high; sorry about the words).
And y'all can tell from my posts. I like our draft. I don't love it. I like it. I like to think more about "what did we get" than "what didn't we get," ya know? It always helps my perspective to accept the new reality and imagine it working, rather than focus on what could have happened. I don't always succeed in using that perspective but I try.
Anyway, I like a lot of team's drafts for themselves more than I like our draft for the Packers. So I give it a C+ for where it falls in the league spectrum of improvement and fulfillment.
So I really like Golden and Belton. And I have a positive vision for what Savion can be. But how improved are we relative to how improved other teams around the league are? We're pretty mid.

Is it pretty obvious now that the negative Sanders press about his entitlement and bad interviews is true?
When he says in a press conference “if you don’t want to change the culture of your franchise, don’t draft me,” I knew right then and there his stock was dropping. It is nice to see self-entitled narcissism have consequences for once in modern day professional sports.

Never know how a draft is going to go and I don’t have full medical reports or the interviews in these guys but I would have went Will Johnson in the 1st, Mike Green in the 2nd, and Royals in the 3rd.
