With the Packers predominantly relying on throwing the ball I don't want them to spend the 14th pick on a tackle excelling in run blocking. James would be my favorite pick.Chubb is an elite edge rusher who could replace Matthews next season though.I would be extremely excited if the Packers end up drafting James.<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />It would be a risky move as the Packers couldn't be sure another team would trade up to #5 though.Last offseason a lot of posters thought Hundley would fetch a decent draft pick in return.I mostly agree but no matter who the Packers end up drafting in the first round some positions will remain in need of an upgrade. Therefore they shouldn't trade away the majority of their early picks.While I fully understand the chances are slim it's possible to end up with an impact player later in the draft as well though. In addition first round picks bust all the time. Once again, I'm not opposed to moving up in the first round but Gutekunst shouldn't pay too much to make it work.</blockquote>
