Hopefully. He's won the award for most accurate mock a few times. Waiting on it to be published.

Expecting a trade back. maybe get an early second +3rd round pick. Would set the packers to go BPA pretty much in the 2nd/3rd/4th rounds. Come away with WR, DL, LB, OT (not in any order). Wouldn't mind a QB if they get that extra pick in a trade.

Kiper has us taking TE Cole Kmet with pick #30.

Good to know they won’t draft Kmet at 30.

I would have thought we'd see it by now. I was thinking 10am central at the latest

Yup. He usually wraps up his positional series with kickers/returners the day before the draft and his mock is published the day of. But he released specialists this morning so maybe no mock this year.

McGinn on Kmet

Kmet reminded one scout of ex-Cowboy Jason Witten (6-5 ½, 260, 4.67). “If you want an all-around guy, kind of a Kyle Rudolph-type guy, he’s it,” said another scout. “He’s faster than Kyle, but he doesn’t have the ball skills. He’s had some durability issues. He’s got great intangibles. He can run. He can catch. He doesn’t have an elite trait but you really love the body type and everything about him.” Third-year junior with 60 catches (43 in 2019) for 691 (11.5) and six TDs. “He’s not a talent like Vernon Davis or Evan Engram,” a third scout said. “He’s more of a throwback, classic Y tight end. He’s solid. He won’t fail.” From Lake Barrington, Ill. “I don’t see a great blocker and I don’t see a great receiver,” said a fourth scout. “I see a guy that’s more of a U. I don’t see a great Y. He reminds me a lot of the (Drew) Sample guy that came out last year out of Washington and plays with the Bengals. Some of the workout (numbers) were better than the player he is. I don’t see first round. I think he’s always going to be a solid No. 2 (tight end), maybe a good No. 3.” Wonderlic of 28.

Because nothing says explosiveness like Jason Witten.

Yuck.

The new thing (or maybe not so new) for mocks is just getting the right 32 players. Highest % wins. So a lot of guys just get tossed in to whoever. They don't give a damn after the Top 10

Fins trying to trade all three of their 2020 firsts for Burrow supposedly...that would be interesting

I thought I read that they were trying to package to get 3 along with 5, which leads me to believe Cinci said, maybe if you had two top 5 picks we would do the deal.

Kmet scores an 8.92 on the RAS scale, 3rd among the tight ends in the draft.

As to Gute drafting by this Sternberger's score was 5.24 :lol:

Okay that is my exception to what I said in the prediction thread. Kmet would have me rage.
