He's a horse, with some pretty good moves to boot.

You not a fan of the big back we pair with Jones that's already on the roster?

Jamaal Williams is a good, reliable, if not particularly outstanding runner. Decent pass receiver too. But they really do need more horses for the backfield than Jones and J. Williams.

Is that a by-product of Gute's comment on the potential of taking a QB? Which may/may not be a mis-direction....

Would Eason be the proverbial BPA, at that spot? Depending on Free Agent results, the Pack may still need WR's and ILB's too

Hopefully that helps Reagor drop to us, quite a difference from all that 4.2 talk.

It wouldn't shock me if both Reagor and Shenault are there for GB now.

So many good prospects at wr, I wouldn’t be mad if we went that route early and often. We need to draft offensive lineman, ILB, and play makers who can catch the ball. Of course as usual, if a stud drops at any position you take him. I really would like Shenault, Murray, or Love but I think they go early.

Combine throwback to 2005, Rodgers with a 4.71 40. Faster than Sternberger, btw :lol:

Shenault is intriging to me, in part for the combination of high performance and versatility.

Still, there should be a number of really good options at #30.

Starting to think about scenarios that would make me most happy. Murray in the first (maybe Queen), and then trading back up to secure an outstanding WR in the 2nd. Maybe Mims or Reagor.

That works for me. Let there be a big run on QB's early on, and other talent slides
