Yes. Yes, they did. Green Bay snagged Edgerrin Cooper at 45 after trading back, then Javon Bullard at 58 to strengthen the interior of the Packers defensive spine. Then they grabbed MarShawn Lloyd who, he’ll tell you, is the best running back in the draft. The Packers seem to be getting a lot of “best of,” players in 2024.

Best NFL draft RB landing spots: MarShawn Lloyd, Isaac Guerendo | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
https://www.youtube.com/NFLonNBC
Payton Wilson is better than E. Cooper. The stats and games prove that fact from the last 2 seasons, and the Packers had a few chances to draft P. Wilson. The draft pick of Javon Bullard helps me forget about not drafting Cooper DeJean, though.
Why no mention of the fact that Lloyd averages 1 fumble in every 36 touches, and that's at the college level. He's not going to last long at the pro level if he doesn't improve that 5x or more.
Ill come back in December. If you were right, ill subscribe and be a payed member!!! Ive lived in Milwaukee Wisconsin my whole life. I hope your right.
brenton Cox will take a huge leap this year
Cooper is a Super Freak of nature at LB
Yes & yes.
Negative assessments of the Packers draft make no sense to me. Rd 1, the consensus #2 guard in the draft (i.e., Josh Jacobs' best friend). Rd 2, Cooper and Bullard both regarded as consensus #1 at their positions. Rd 3, Lloyd a top3 RB, Hoopers' 2022 tape insane. Rd 4 the E-W Shrine bowl MVP with supernatural nose for the football, Evan Williams. Rd 5 a rock at center, heir apparent to Josh Meyers (i.e., Josh Jacobs second best friend). A massive OT prospect in Rd 6 and two name-brand college athletes who fell to the 7th round. Oh, and Donovan Jennings at UFA. What more could we expect????
Sorry, I got a correct myself. I said I talk too much. I have to update the prime on Twitter.❤❤
Talking on your Twitter I talk too much. It said update on prime people like me. I have questions. I talk too much. So when I came, I wanna update to prime❤❤❤
I think David that played for the Packers for because of injuries. He is really retiring. He’s not playing for the Jets.❤❤❤ not being a creator, he’s really doing what he said he was doing. I thought you would come, but I was wrong.❤❤ I said I would ask you a little bit questions asking too much questions.❤❤
Sorry, it is kind of funny. They wanna take our older players thinking they’re going somewhere.😂😂😂 I do like Aaron even though he’s older❤❤
I think Christian Watson is only in his 20s ❤❤ how the Jets think they’re going with a rod after his injury being in his 40s ❤❤
I don’t know when we got rid of a rod in his 30s❤❤
I don’t know when we got rid of A Rod
I wish we could take Christian Watson. I’m thinking whatever he asked for but keep him good for what’s the Raiders raiders wanted him for, but I was Packers trying to keep him then on top whatever he wanted he tried to give him money on top of that but try and keep Christian for that much if he’s that good if not, 18 years that we kept Adams❤❤ I don’t know how long we had him. Is he still on contract my opinion I like him with the Packers if he’s that good yet. Then try and get them for what the Raiders got Adams for and have enough money to keep him because he’s only in his 20s Christian Watson is my opinion he is that good. Use him until he doesn’t have no more juice in him in his 30s.❤❤
I have a question What the Raiders wanted for Adams and they got them for whatever they wanted him for gave us a player that much money I forgot but we screwed up. We didn’t get Adams under his contract and then we trying to keep them adding money to keep him, but he didn’t stay, he wanted to go to the Raiders I think it was because of his family and play with his college friend Derek Carr❤❤
And best RB?
Your eval of Hopper is wrong. He is a Mike LB! He is different than Cooper and Walker. He is a faster version of McDuffy. He is very very fast. Yes he is a teamer. Yes he is lesser known. Do you know why Mike backers season grades will vary? Its the DTs in front of them! You will change your mind on Hopper. You will see. He will push for a starting position in their base 4-3 set.
Good thing you're mostly on the radio/audio podcast, because that shirt is atrocious.
So I think the Qauy Walker slander is a little unwarranted. I think right now there’s definitely reasons for some concerns, but until we start chopping this guys ceiling down we need to see how he fits into Hafley’s defense. The aggressive mantra that Hafley preaches is a night and day better fit than Barry’s sort of soft/petient LB philosophy. Quay does his work best working down hill and actually attacking , than trying to sift and fill a hole 5 yards down the field like Barry seemed to be having them do because that’s all you saw on game day for the most part. You think about when Quay has had success, it’s been attacking the LS. Hafley is gonna do that, pair him now with cooper and you got two incredibly gifted athletes who can go and attack the LS.
Guerendo is going to fit in nicely!
Marshawn Lloyd is Frank Gore 2.0..!
Lloyd=Sanders+Bush+OJ+Sayers
Jaylen Wright to the Dolphins. Perfect fit.
It has worked out pretty well with McCaffrey? I would say it worked out really well. He was the NFL offensive player of the year in 2023.
Do ya remember Roger Craig? Started out as a fullback, and moved to RB. Like to see Guerendo get some reps this year subbing for Juice. Then be part of a real multiple threat with CMC when Juice steps down. Plenty of time for eventual replacement of CMC three or four years distant. All that assumes that 221 lbs can really move downfield at 4.33
It’s just a joke that Florio even participates in these segments. It’s so obvious that Florio doesn’t know any of these guys from Adam. None of his opinions were specifics about the players cuz he has no idea. Versus Simms who actually does his job and knows all the players
Llyod run a 4.47 in the 40
“Not game breaking speed”… faster 40 than Aaron jones, looks that fast on tape
Lloyd's not even close to 5' 11"
Trey Benson is a good example of the transfer portal. He was about to get buried on the depth chart at Oregon. Moving to FSU earned him a 2nd round pick.
Go Pack Go !! Chris simms knows exactly what he’s talking about 🤟🏼💪🏼my favorite Jersey Guy Chris simms !! 💯
Packers have the best running backs in the NFL. Go Pack Go🎉🎉
Marshawn Loyd is going to run over defenses this year go pack go
The one you all forgot that is going to be better than 95% if not 100% than those you listed. UDFA Cody Schrader – Niners. – Watch his tape, he is the next CMC
I know there’s more special teams opportunities now, but did the Jets really need to spend picks on 2 RBs??
MarShawn Lloyd reminds me of Tony Dorsett just not as fast.
Go pack go, I like our guy can assume the Aaron Jones role.
Blake Corum is on the wrong LA team.
Estime going to show out this year
