Every year around this time, I like to do a way to early
mock draft for the Green Bay Packers. This year, it appears as if they are
staring at needs at defensive tackle, inside linebacker, and right guard.
Round One: Ellis McCarthy/DT/UCLA- The Packers need to find
a long term solution at nose tackle as with his season ending injury, it
appears as if the Packers are ready to move on without B.J. Raji. At 6’4”, 330
pounds, Ellis McCarthy would be perfect for the Packers 3-4 hybrid scheme.
Round Two: Denzel Perryman/ILB/Miami- The Packers have been
playing games with their inside linebackers long enough. Here you go. To the
bench goes Hawk or Jones.
Round Three: Corey Robinson/OT/South Carolina- We know a lot
of people like Brian Bulaga, but it is time for the Packers to cut bait and
move on. Robinson is big massive man who
would fit well on the right side.
Round Four: Eric Rowe/CB/Utah- There is no knowing how long
Tramon Williams will be in a Packers uniform for, as he is aging fast. Heyward
or House will slide into the starter spot and Rowe could pick up the slack
behind them.
Round Five: Wes Saxton/TE/South Alabama- Ted Thompson loves his small school
guys, and Saxton is an interesting project at tight end.
Round Six: Jeffery Whitaker/DT/Auburn- The Packers could
also use some depth at nose tackle. Whitaker is another wide body that would
fit well in this scheme.
Round Seven: Leon Brown/OG/OT/Alabama- Every team late in
the draft tries to find a swingman for their offensive line that can provide
depth.
