I do find it funny that, after having its best collective rushing season since before 9/11, both starting RBs for Detroit are gone.

Alright, got some theories about what the Packers are doing with their ten (10) remaining picks:

Well, on-track so far:

- Safety x2
- Offensive tackle
- Running back
- Tight end <-- Tucker Kraft
- Quarterback <-- Sean Clifford
- Kicker
- Defensive line <-- Colby Wooden
- Interior o-line
- Wide receiver <-- Dontayvion Wicks

Lots of picks left to go though! Apparently the knocks on Clifford are that he's inaccurate and doesn't read the field well, like a miniature Jordan Love. That's fun.

A fourth for nearly nothing. I wonder who else was calling to move up or if they bluffed and just said ok thanks for the free pick.

Srsly, if they wen the traditional route and got a veteran QB, there'd be a QB controversy if the Packers got off to a rough start.

They need a guy who can't possibility be better than Jordan Love to back him up. :stare:

Something other than a QB that most mocks I've seen had as a UDFA?

It made me feel better that they saw something specific in him they wanted where they didn't want to risk him going to some other team/undrafted.

I mean it's a mid-fifth pick and we had 7 more picks to go after that. I'm not especially rustled.

We're deep into the "I barely know anything about half of these guys so who knows what's a good pick or not" part of the draft

Realistically that's the entire draft, but it's extra true on day three

I like the draft so far but these QB and K picks are baffling.

At least it's fairly easy to tell if a kicker sucks in training camp.

Yeah, but you could sign any number of kickers after the draft as UFAs. Especially of that quality.

Hello NFC North thread. What in the world is the Vikings draft strategy? It feels like they are setting up to extend Cousins for a few years or bottom out after he leaves in 2024.

Kirk Cousins is a perfectly servicable QB.

If the Vikings defense wasn't absolute hot loving garbage that Vikings team was a really really really good team.

Dog, their defensive pass rush was negative last year. they had by far the worst defensive front in the League.

They are drafting specifically where they need to.

They don't have an Edge, but there are a number of edges who are available right now, in free agency who would be good
