[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 893655, member: 7261"] This being a very key point. If I had to guess, RB was on Gutes Draft charts due to the Jones and Williams situation, but I doubt it was 2nd round high on is chart, until he saw Dillon still sitting there at #62. Knowing how much resigning Jones might be, a 2nd round investment in a guy the Packers loved, was probably deemed a no brainer. Also, at the time I don't think teams were probably aware of the cap being drastically reduced due to COVID. So this Dillon could have been viewed as Williams replacement as well. I absolutely love Aaron Jones, but with the cap situation being as it is, I think Dillon may have just made the decision for the Packers a lot easier when it comes to giving Jones a huge contract. Besides his running, what really impressed me last night was Dillon's ability to catch the ball. One of his 2 catches was negated by a defensive penalty, but with both catches, he showed good focus and hands. [/QUOTE]
