Thoughts on the #Packers draft thus far in a thread...

I don't blame the Packers for trying to get the quarterback of the future. I said I wouldn't consider Jordan Love until Round 2, but I get it. You don't get very many opportunities to get the future of the franchise. Plus the fifth-year option for a QB is valuable.

The Packers essentially gave themselves two swings to get the QB of the future while still having Rodgers. If the Packers feel Love isn't the guy, they can trade trade him after 2 or 3 years and try again. They might not get first-round compensation, but they'd get something.

Day 2 of the draft, however, was something else. So the Packers want to go to a run-first offense and take pressure off a 36-year-old quarterback. All good. I'm on board. But they didn't need to invest into a running back and an H-back on Day 2 to do that.

Even if the Packers are running more than ever before, this is still the NFL and they're presumably still "all in" on getting to the Super Bowl in Rodgers' twilight years. He'll still have to drop back over 400 times a season. And when the game's on the line, you're passing.

What better place to take advantage of the best WR class in years? Even with the run game taking higher priority, they still need a receiver with speed, something sorely lacking right now if MVS can't be that guy.

And what about the defense that got gashed by the 49ers, especially by the run? Day 2 would've been a good opportunity to get a run-stuffing DL. And what if Kirksey gets hurt like he so often has? And who's the slot cornerback? And who potentially replaces King in '21?

I like A.J. Dillon quite a bit. But he's a running back. You can't get him on Day 2? Okay, so settle for Mike Warren of Cincinnati on Day 3. You're still getting your big bruiser, albeit a lesser version.

I'm in the camp that Aaron Jones is the best running back in Green Bay since Ahman Green and the Packers should make an honest attempt to keep him here. I'd rather see the run game revolve around him. It's a risk; I get it. But I'll take it.

And an H-back on Day 2? Deguaria might be a nice little chess piece, but damn, I hope any NFL evaluator can find an H-back on Day 3.
