[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 867038, member: 12283"] If they let Bulaga walk, and Veldheer or someone of his caliber is the de facto RT, I could see a trade up from #30 to get a tackle who can start immediately. After the "big four"-- Becton, Wills, Thomas, Wirfs-- there is only one guy that I think who hold the starting spot down immediately, and that's Josh Jones (Houston). Austin Jackson and Ezra Cleveland are talented, and both had some mitigating factors to explain their play in 2019, but they are developmental prospects for sure. Starting them as rookies could lead to some very ugly results. Of the five teams picking immediately in front of Green Bay, four could very easily draft a tackle in the first round. Minnesota (25) is probably going to let Reiff go, leaving them with a hole at LT. Miami (26) has the worst starting duo at tackle in the entire NFL. Seattle (27) is probably losing their starting RT to free agency (by choice). Tennessee (29) will be big players for a tackle if they allow Conklin to leave, which seems like the plan. The trade chart is far from set in stone, but just viewing it as a guideline, jumping ahead of these teams to #24 (the Saints) is worth 120 points. The Packers 3rd round pick is worth 124. So it's possible that #30 and #94 could get Green Bay to #24. If Jones is on the board, and we are in that situation at RT that I described, I wouldn't be opposed to the move. A disastrous situation at a tackle spot could have big adverse effects on an important season for the Packers. It would hurt to lose a 3rd round pick, but it would be preferable to getting picked off like the Texans last year. [/QUOTE]
