Good pick for them. Great corner, might have been a realization that it was there only opportunity to trade up to get a CB.

Does GB go with Dejean or go OL with Barton.

Both would be top players at major needs.

If I'm GB I'm trying to get back into the late first for an OL

It’ll be Jordan Morgan.

I think the odds of Detroit standing pat are minimal.  On the off chance they do, I think they drink the Kool Aid at 29, if he is still available.   I can see them trying to get DeJean, also.   
DB
DL
OL
WR

They already have their projected starters in place.   These can all be developmental/depth picks.

Trading up (slightly) for a player better than either Kool Aid or Cooper has to make you happy.

Had seen him mocked to GB in a few earlier mocks, not recently.

He was a guy I hoped would be there at 41 or move back into the late first to grab. It's a good pick but surprised given the options on the board.

I don't think they do this over Barton unless they view him as a tackle

I was surprised they passed on Barton, but I trust the Packers knowledge on taking good offensive linemen.

Arnold is a good choice.  Holmes got who Detroit thought was the best corner.  One who can come in and compete for a starting job in a relatively set starting line up.  Holmes traded picks for the 10th time in 4 years.   
   It looked like fun in downtown Detroit.   275k in attendance.

Belichick just destroying Drake Maye on the McAfee broadcast is pretty funny.

Belichick the coach is better than Belichick the GM

Oh, they let the Chiefs get Xavier Worthy.  What could go wrong, Buffalo?

NFC North Draft Grades:

Bears: F - Williams is a bust and Odunze is John Ross 2.0.  Ryan Poles will be in dental school within a years

Lions: A - Terrion Arnold will be a solid CB.  Traded up to get him, maybe stealing him from GB.  Weren’t getting him at 29.  Great outfit.

Vikings: D - Traded away a ton of draft capital for Christian Ponder 2.0 and an undersized edge rusher

Packers: C - Added a versatile OL depth piece but didn’t address K, the worst player on the team

Cannot believe the Packers did not take a kicker last night.

NFC north is going to be a grind.

At least the Packers and Lions use the portal unlike Marquette

I’d buy that argument if Penix wasn’t going to be 24 this year and the pick was in the 20’s.

Yeah among a litany of other reasons.  Love was raw coming out, Penix isn't.  Penix is older and often injured.

The talent is there, but I think ATL can probably also trade Kirk before the deadline to a team that feels like they're a QB away from a good run.  Or next year if they think Penix is ready.

Could be.  Cousins would have to have been pretty naive not to expect them to possibly draft a QB at some point.  Just not at 8.

He was told when he signed that ATL would take a QB, but in a later round. Word is he was shocked last night.
