[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 812913"] WRs: I think I'd go where moneyball inidcates, the speedy, smaller slots that do not get valued highly to replace Cobb. While hitting a home run with a Hill or a triple with a Lockett in this mold is a bit much to ask, there is value to be had in the smaller receivers. With current needs, a true wideout in the first round is a luxury pick. Here a couple of ideas providng the Packers don't actually sign a good young slot if FA. While having taken about 20 minutes to survey the options, how about a guy like Terry Godwin who can be gotten further down the board, tough in the middle and can run outside with what is probably 4.4 speed and some hops. He's probably going to measure around 5'10 - 5'11" and will be discounted as a result. Slot / outside versatility is a big plus, and I'm pretty confident in thinking he'd be an upgrade over Cobb once he gets his feet wet: [MEDIA=youtube]GdA1OZTwZBI[/MEDIA] Further down the board there's Hunter Renfrow, not as fast as Godwin but he looks tough and competitive at the ball: [MEDIA=youtube]7XfKtGwGRiw[/MEDIA] And for a deep dive bargain further down the board there's the 5' 8" KaVontae Turpin, possibly the fastest guy in this draft who also breaks ankles and looks pretty tough for his size. He's got outstanding kick and punt return numbers. He's a red flag character issue guy with two separate arrests, one for assault on his girlfriend and second for battery, which got him kicked off the TCU team. This guy would require some deep vetting but he would not cost much in the way of a pick. Not a 3-down slot in all likelihood, but a dangerous guy to work into the mix and have return kicks.
