I won't complain if Mayer is the pick at #15. He's not a freak but he's good at basically everything you could ask a TE to do.

I'm not super in the know in regards to the more specialized roles inside of a position, but the Packers seem like they need a guy who can be a safety valve with some big play potential. Kincaid, Musgrave, LaPorta seem like good guys for that role potentially.

Maybe if his name was Denise instead of Dennis.

This is obviously the scoop McShay had on "character concerns."

Quite an interesting set of stories with Brandon Miller and Carter as top picks in their respective sports that were tangentially involved in deaths.

I thought there was a report a week or 2 back that said the Packers weren't going to the Combine.

The coaching staff isn't, but the front office is.

Just Lafleur and the coaching staff. The rest of the front office is there.

I'd be thrilled if we took Branch at #15. Smart and fast, plug and play starter at safety that can cover too.

Smith would be a fun addition to the line. Another bonkers athlete out of Michigan.
