The Packers’ best pick in this spot only lasted two years in Green Bay."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareSharePackers Draft Pick History: Tyrone Culver was the pick at #185 back in 2006Photo by Mark Konezny/NFLPhotoLibraryThe Green Bay Packers hold ten draft picks in the 2019 NFL Draft Womens Za'Darius Smith Jersey , and for a team that has a storied, 100-year history, they have predictably made selections in the past at every one of these draft slots. Over the next few days leading up to this year’s draft, Acme Packing Company will examine the Packers’ history at each current slot for 2019, as well as run down the names of recent picks around the league at the position.This year, the Green Bay Packers have two picks in the sixth round of the NFL Draft. Their fist pick in that round comes in at #185 overall, but in team history there’s not much here to choose from. The Packers have chosen at #185 overall just three times, and none of the three players had much of a career in Green Bay.In fact, there have been precious few useful players drafted at 185 by anyone in NFL history. The best player drafted in that slot is likely defensive tackle Jeff Zgonina, whom the Pittsburgh Steelers picked in 1993 at that spot. Zgonina was a useful backup and rotational player in the 1990s, bouncing around with five different teams, but he finally earned a starting job in 2000 with the St. Louis Rams. He started there for three years before signing with the Miami Dolphins, playing four years there before concluding his career with a three-year stint with the Texans. All told, Zgonina carved out an impressive 16-year career, earning a Super Bowl ring with the 1999 Rams.Here’s a look at the players who the Packers selected at 185 and some of the recent names to go off the board in that spot.Packers’ History at #1851955: Charlie Brackins Bart Starr Jersey , QB1960: John Littlejohn, B2006: Tyrone Culver, SCulver is the only player in this group with a career that lasted more than one year, though he only made it two years with the Packers (and only was active on gameday during one of those seasons). He caught on with the Miami Dolphins in 2008, however, and carved out a decent five-year run as a backup safety through the 2012 campaign. Recent History at #1852018: Deon Cain, WR, Clemson (Colts)2017: Caleb Brantley, DT, Florida (Browns)2016: DeAndre Houston-Carson, S, William & Mary (Bears)2015: Tyrus Thompson, OT, Oklahoma (Vikings)2014: Robert Herron, WR Za'Darius Smith Jersey , Wyoming (Buccaneers)2013: DeVonte Holloman, LB, South Carolina (Cowboys)2012: Ryan Lindley, QB, San Diego State (Cardinals)2011: Greg Jones, LB, Michigan State (Giants) Here’s a look at the six edge rushers who would be feasible options for the Packers with the 12th overall pick."With the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine fast approaching, the Green Bay Packers’ personnel staff are hard at work assembling the team’s early draft board. General manager Brian Gutekunst must be viewing this year’s crop of pass-rushers with excitement, as the Packers appear in position to land one of a handful of very tempting prospects with the 12th overall pick in the draft.While there is no guarantee that the Packers will use that pick on this position, the value and need appear to match up. While two players in particular appear to sit in a tier of their own above the rest, the next group of four could all be under consideration at 12 and might not last until the Packers pick again at 30 overall.Here’s a quick look at six edge rushers thought by Acme Packing Company to be at the top of this year’s EDGE class and what to look for from each at the Combine in two weeks.Nick Bosa, Ohio State6-foot-4, 263 poundsNick Bosa statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRThe likely #1 overall pick in this year’s draft is Bosa, who played only three games in 2018 before shutting his season down with a “core” injury, likely an abdominal issue. When on the field over the past two years Womens DeShone Kizer Jersey , Bosa followed in his brother Joey’s footsteps as the premier pass-rusher in the country, and consistently occupied opposing backfields despite drawing frequent double-teams.Bosa’s technique as a pass-rusher is what sets him apart from the rest of the class. He will probably test relatively well at the Combine, though not at eye-popping levels; it’s the tape that really distinguishes him from the next tier of players.Josh Allen, Kentucky6-foot-4, 258 poundsJosh Allen statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRINTYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRINTLike Bosa, Allen jumps off the tape. He also has more production at the college level, helpedby a massive senior year. However, Allen is likely to test better at the Combine, so NFL teams near the top of the draft will have to weigh that against the players’ technique. Still, Allen is currently projected as a top-five pick, and appears unlikely to be available when the Packers are on the clock at #12 overall.Clelin Ferrell, Clemson6-foot-4, 265 poundsClelin Ferrell statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRNow we’re getting into the players who will reasonably be options for general manager Brian Gutekunst. Ferrell’s production as part of Clemson’s exceptional defensive line is obvious in the stats. He’s also built a little bit more thickly than some of these other players, which elicits questions about whether he will be able to drop in coverage to be a good fit for a 3-4 team. In a sense, the questions about Ferrell seem similar to those that Nick Perry faced coming out of USC as a perceived “tweener Womens Brett Hundley Jersey ,” stuck between a 3-4 and 4-3 fit. Perry posted a terrific workout at 6-foot-3, 271, however. Can Ferrell move that well? That will likely be the big question he’ll need to answer in Indy — watch him as much during linebacker drills (assuming he works out at that position as well as at defensive end) as you do on the conventional athletic tests.Montez Sweat, Mississippi State6-foot-6, 252 poundsMontez Sweat statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRFor the Packers, Sweat has the benefit of playing in a multiple defense for the Bulldogs, lining up both with his hand in the dirt and in a two-point stance. The Michigan State transfer has been a monster for two seasons in the SEC, and he led the conference in TFLs and sacks in 2017. He’s got a huge frame, however, and can probably add some weight without much trouble. It should be fun to see how he tests in Indy — watch for good numbers in explosiveness drills like the vertical and broad jumps.Jachai Polite, Florida6-foot-2, 242 poundsJachai Polite statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRThe shortest edge rusher in this group, Polite is built a bit like Clay Matthews was coming out of College; indeed, their weight is about the same and they have a similar tenacity and drive to reach the quarterback. Polite, who turns 21 in March Womens Justin Vogel Jersey , will face questions about being a one-year wonder and about his size, but he should put up excellent testing results and shows a knack for not just getting to the quarterback, but attacking the football as well to force turnovers.Brian Burns, Florida State6-foot-4, 235 poundsBrian Burns statsYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRYearGamesTotal TacklesSoloAssistsTFLSacksFFFRUnlike most of these other players, Burns arrived in college and made an impact as a true freshman, finishing second on the team in sacks. He sustained that through his three years, leading the team in TFLs as a sophomore and junior and accounting for more than a third of the Seminoles’ sacks last season.However, the build is the big question here. He’s so lean that he looks almost like a big safety on the edge. Perhaps a similar physical comparison would be Leonard Floyd, who was the 9th overall pick by the Bears in 2016. Though he’s taller than Burns at nearly 6-foot-6, Floyd bulked up to 244 pounds by his combine and still ran well. If Burns can get near a similar number in Indy and still run well, that should help his case a bit.One other thing Burns has going for him is his age. As a true junior, he’s just 20 years old and will turn 21 the week before the draft. That suggests that he is still growing into his body a bit and will be able to add some bulk to hold up on the edge on a more consistent basis moving forward. « Bethesda appear The Elder Scrolls: Blades division applicationPath of Exile patch 1.19 released » ![]() |
