[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 910138, member: 7261"] Oh come on, you think my frustration with the WR's clouded my vision? ;) Now that I look it up, I do remember the talk about the claim that Gute tried to move up in the first. Yet, still nothing in the 2nd or the 3rd or .....in a deep WR draft class. Then over a year later we see Ian Rapoport talking about it, because its another piece of the "why Aaron wants out puzzle." [URL='https://twitter.com/RapSheet']Ian Rapoport @RapSheet[/URL] The draft is the ultimate what-if. In 2020, [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Packers?src=hashtag_click']#Packers[/URL] GM Brian Gutekunst targeted a WR. He tried to trade up for LSU WR Justin Jefferson, only to see MIN take him. He watched the [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/49ers?src=hashtag_click']#49ers[/URL] trade up for ASU WR Brandon Aiyuk - another target. Then GB moved up to select… Jordan Love. [URL='https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1389231259596075016']9:51 AM · May 3, 2021[/URL]·[URL='https://help.twitter.com/using-twitter/how-to-tweet#source-labels']TweetDeck[/URL] Meanwhile Peter King, a few days after the draft says this: "Gutekunst said the Packers had two receivers they were targeting in [the] early and middle part of the second round," King wrote. "They tried to move up with several teams, he said, until the second receiver they preferred got picked, and then they stopped." So I am still confused, did Gute actually want to move up in the first or was it the second or was is just media or GM speak? [/QUOTE]
