[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 720680, member: 7261"] Agreed. Although the Packers shouldn't let the drafting of Randall and Rollins (#1 and #2) make them gunshy about using top picks for CB's in the future, I think the lesson learned is, you probably aren't going to find an effective enough 2017 starter at CB, even with as deep as the CB draft is this year. If you do draft one, is he really going to get a lot of playing time behind House, Randall and Rollins? At this point, I would almost rather see the Packers ride out the CB's that are currently on the team and see where they are or even try and find a veteran to add to the group. If that strategy fails, a #29 pick probably wouldn't have saved the season anyway. Then despite TT's adversity to using Free Agency on top guys, you go after a top CB in free agency next year. On the flip side, I think you might get more out of an OLB with your top pick. As Twiddle pointed out, the Packers are thin at OLB and a #1 pick would see playing time, as well as prepare himself to potentially take over for Clay. [/QUOTE]
