I could see a WR being picked early. We've always been willing to take WRs in the first couple days even when people didn't see them as needs. We've got a 30+ WR in Jordy, a FA in Davante, and a guy not playing up to his lofty contract numbers in Cobb. Behind them we don't really have any strong prospects. We don't just draft for next year, these guys sign 4 year deals. If there is a really good WR available early I don't think they'll pass on him just because a defense position is more of a need this coming season.

My request is always for that 6'5" freak that catches everything, can jump really high, and has 4-3 speed.

Anyway, I expect the Packers to add 2 receivers through the draft, free agency, or undrafted players. Keeps the guys on the roster at the top of their games and it probably is the most important position on the offense next to Rodgers.

What concerns me is that Rodgers can hit WR in the hands with the football, but the WR don't catch the ball.
James Jones did have large hands and IMO it was his edge .

Cooper Kupp or Carlos Henderson 3rd round. Book it.

I always like reading about college guys on here. I don't keep up on college players, so I learn a lot from you guys.

I do watch the combine and video of college workout tapes as well. Watching games is often tough as the level of competition makes judging difficult. The East - West Shrine game is pretty good they just need to advertise it more. A lot of luck goes into a good showing there one must admit unless you're a defense guy for the most part. Being on cue offensively with limited reps and comfort is sometimes hard for some guys to look good.

Passing league. Always draft more WRs.

Martha Careful (2h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (3h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (5h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (6h) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : Saints have agreed to terms on a contract with former Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown.
