3rd & 7 37yd

Greetings everyone, welcome to the JSOnline and PackersNews live blog of the 2017 NFL draft.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:03:10 PM
We're about an hour away from the start of the draft. In the meantime, I'll be taking questions on any Packer- or draft-related questions you might have.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:05:39 PM
Let's start with a poll.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:05:52 PM
TJ Watt TJ Watt

by darock 4/27/2017 11:08:32 PM
Kiper says guard, McShay says CB. What says you?

by Ferrousfan 4/27/2017 11:08:36 PM
I definitely would say they're not taking a guard. TT doesn't like to take guards in the first round and it's obvious he's worried about getting a starter out of this draft because he signed Jahri Evans. You don't make that move if you think you might get a guard in the first round. I know everyone thinks a corner would be ideal, but to me he has to be someone who can play right away. There's only a couple of those in the draft, if any. I would go pass rusher.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:10:15 PM
Hi Tom, nice to be chatting again. If Gareon Conely is still there at 29 will the Packers take him? Should they?

by Jerry K 4/27/2017 11:10:19 PM
It really depends on the information they have. I'm sure NFL security went in and examined the case and tried to provide as much intelligence as possible. If it looks like there will be charges and the case could stick, they have to lay off him. If they're convinced he's innocent, then they have to consider him. There don't appear to be other red flags with him.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:11:56 PM
Curious of your opinion if Corey Davis happens to be there @ 29?

by J-Rd 4/27/2017 11:12:01 PM
I absolutely would take him. No way would I pass him up, I don't care what your needs on defense are. I'd take him, trade Cobb or Adams and expect him to be the Jordy Nelson of the future. I can't imagine how good their offense would be with him.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:13:09 PM
Hey Tom, good to see you on the blog! Thanks for hosting us. You da man

by Doug in North Carolina 4/27/2017 11:13:14 PM
Are you in Philly Tom?

by J-Rd 4/27/2017 11:13:47 PM
I am in Green Bay. That's where all the Packers' brass is and where all the local reporters are. The only people in Philly are the guys who take the cards up to the podium. The best place to cover it is right here unless the team you cover has a top 10 selection and you want to get a sit-down interview with the guy who gets drafted.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:15:15 PM
Tom
If Chriss Harris/Watt/Cook/Lamp available at 29, who should Packers benefit most?

by Jimmy 4/27/2017 11:15:41 PM
I think you mean Charles Harris. I'd lean toward him. As much as I like Cook, the long term possibilities of a pass rusher are much greater than a running back.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:16:52 PM
do people actually think its possible they would take Forrest Lamp in the first? If TT wouldn't pay for a guard he for sure isn't dropping a 1st on one

by Tim 4/27/2017 11:16:57 PM
No, I don't think he would. As I said, if he thought there was a chance he could get Lamp, he wouldn't have signed Evans. I could be wrong, but I'd be surprised if Lamp were the pick.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:17:41 PM
Tom, so good to be back with you! Any chance the Packers take B McGinn, Journalist out of Michigan in the 1st? True Hall of Famer in the making!

by DCPackerFan 4/27/2017 11:17:48 PM
He's in the Hall of Fame!

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:17:59 PM
Will the Packers actual take a guy like mixon or cook if they slip and become values cause of their red flag issues. Seems you have to address taking a guy like that regardless of where you take them.

by Aeroguy32 4/27/2017 11:18:06 PM
I can't see them taking Mixon. Man, would that cause a storm up here. And I'd be right at the front of the line asking Thompson why he thinks a guy who punched a woman deserves to be in his backfield and would he have taken him if that woman was his daughter. Cook has baggage, but I don't think it compares with Mixon. I think they could live with him.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:19:42 PM
Tom, thanks for taking time to take questions. There are differences of opinions out there on Clay's best position. Some say inside, some outside. What do you think?

by Brian R. 4/27/2017 11:19:48 PM
I say inside. I know I'm in the minority here, but he was much healthier when he stayed inside and he can have an impact in coverage and the run. He really is good covering tight ends down the field. He can rush the passer on third downs and blitz on early downs. I think he'll just keep getting nicked up if he plays outside. That's why it's so important for the Packers to get an edge rusher in this draft.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:21:20 PM
Hi from Austria, here it`s already 1.00 AM on Friday, is there a chance for Reuben Foster at 29?

by Austria 4/27/2017 11:21:25 PM
Doubt it. And once again, there's a guy you have to worry about with off the field stuff as well as injury. He's a really, really good player and I think someone will take a shot at him long before 29.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:23:04 PM
With so much depth at needed positions like CB & OLB isn't this a perfect draft for Ted to trade down and pick up another pick? Unless he's in love with a guy on his board, I hope Ted tries to do this several times over the next few days. More picks = more shot of getting impact players. Plus team needs depth anyways after losing so many free agents.

by Richard Christy 4/27/2017 11:24:03 PM
I think this is the draft for him to move up. They can't afford to get a couple more Damarious Randall and Quinten Rollinses. He needs a guy who can play right away. He needs impact players and he's not getting those picking at 28, 29, 30. It's getting to the point now where he needs to take a few chances.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:25:37 PM
Thanks for being here and doing this tonight, Tom.

by BoInNOVA 4/27/2017 11:25:40 PM
Tom -

What part does race play in the draft if any at all ?

by noreast 4/27/2017 11:25:47 PM
It shouldn't at all. Like in society, there are people with prejudices in the NFL. But you won't be around very long if you apply them to your draft.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:27:05 PM
I have a feeling there will be a run on pass-rushers before the Packers pick, TJ Watt included. If Watt is gone, what position/player other than OLB/Edge would you like to see them choose?

by Matt Dicob 4/27/2017 11:27:16 PM
If there's a run on pass rushers, which there very well could be, then I think the focus turns to cornerback. If one of those inside linebackers falls for someone reason -- Jarrad Davis, Zach Cunningham -- I think they have to consider that position.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:28:26 PM
I voted for a pass rusher in the poll. I also would love a CB in Round 1. I have this nagging feeling Ted will go offense in the 1st Round. He always seems to surprise/frustrate. Do you think we'll go offense or defense tonight?

by Lincoln Packer 4/27/2017 11:28:37 PM
Odds say it will be defense. But as I said earlier, if Corey Davis somehow fell, Thompson would have to take him. I think he'd be pretty tempted to take Dalvin Cook as well.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:29:23 PM
Tom, will you be blogging all three nights/days?

by BoInNOVA 4/27/2017 11:29:28 PM
Yes, I will.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:29:33 PM
I think I'll almost be stunned if TT doesn't trade down tonight.

by BoInNOVA 4/27/2017 11:29:35 PM
Who were you referring to in your comment at 4:13?

by Packer Pete 4/27/2017 11:29:53 PM
Don't know what you mean?

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:29:59 PM
Tom, your opinion on Evans? Does he have enough in the tank to be a quality guard for the Pack? What does his signing say about what TT thinks about his O Line?

by Doug in North Carolina 4/27/2017 11:30:08 PM
I think he has enough to hold the fort until a young guy finds his footing. But he's rarely hurt and while his play is declining, it wasn't like he was a turnstile last year. He was still pretty decent. I don't think he's the kind of athlete where he'll just crash. I think we'll see continued dropoff, but his play still may be sufficient enough to last the entire year.

by Tom Silverstein 4/27/2017 11:31:49 PM
Do you think we should use the opportunity to take the best available athlete regardless of position? What if there's someone with Ahmad Carrol-like talent available @ 29? Someone who could be the next Jim Thorpe?

by Walt 4/27/2017 11:31:57 PM
The Packers need impact athletes. They don't need guys who played four years of basketball or a couple of years of baseball or are new to their position or didn't test well. If there's a potential starting receiver there, they have to take him. But odds are it will be a pass rusher or corner, which are two of the stronger positions in the draft.
