[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1034753, member: 10086"] The Packers got BOTH good value AND great Volume. Having stabs is like throwing darts. You can throw 11 and 3-4 are bound to either hit bullseye or graze it close IF you play the game with some level of effectiveness (which our FO is good at draft darts imo). 2-3 draft darts will be wild throws but the VOLUME alleviates those misses. Call them bonus throws. Now The Bears had 2 great throws but at QB and WR it’s hard to expect immediate game changing results. Either player could be really good but likely not enough to change the team outlook immediately in 2024. A good QB or WR often take 2-3 seasons to gel and that isn’t a move as much for THIS 2024 season. How did Trevor Lawrence affect his team his Rookie year? Is he a bad College QB? Or do Skill positions just maybe take a minute. Our OT at #25 can impact the quality of our OL some right now but Morgan is a long term upside with an opportunity to impact early as we have a known quantity at LT. At worst he’s a quality Swing Tackle NOW. At #45 Cooper is 100% a player who will have medium/high impact TODAY. That goes for RB and LB in Rd 3. Both positions/players can have a formidable impact EARLY. Javon Bullard at Safety might not be a bonafide Day 1 stab, but he’s a very SAFE player at #58 that 100% can handle the Robin role behind Batman Xavier McKinney. Who I might remind everyone is a “HIGH IMPACT” addition we didn’t even have last season. 100% upgrade over Savage. Then GB went after elevated experience (5th year Seniors etc) or leadership (Team Captains) [U]6 times i[/U]n Day 3, several times trading multiple draft picks to move up for ideal player fits for depth or skill sets. They went after athletic or aggressive “Alpha” types. What’s also important is GB didn’t sacrifice or mortgage their future. They will have their full array of selections again next draft. If you asked me which NFC North team improved the MOST from their draft NOW in 2024? It’s actually a very easy answer. GB and it’s really not even close. We’re talking impact NOW not over a career. I think Chicago has the best LONG TERM upside Draft simply by landing a Top Tier WR and possibly their QB of the future, who COULD impact the game more than all their draft picks combined. They also had ideal draft capital to do it. Aside from that they had a slight upgrade at TE2 (Everett) from LA and switched Montgomery for Swift at RB, which doesn’t make my knees weak. Chicago smartly Resigned key pieces and added quality depth (wisdom) They did get Jonathan Owens though.. bye Simone! No other NFC North team can verifiably say they improved more than GB this offseason. No NFC North team can argue they will get incumbent growth equal to or greater than The Packers.
