Packers 2008 Draft Needs
Posted: Thursday April 24, 2008
I am really getting excited for the NFL draft this weekend. It's always fun to critique and speculate on how the Packers and their division rivals will fare after making roster changes. Here are my pre-draft thoughts:
Now that Minnesota has signed Jared Allen, there is no doubt in my mind that the Packers #1 need in the draft is a quality offensive lineman to protect our new QB, who has already proven to be much more fragile than Favre. After that, I think they need another QB, a TE, and a CB/Safety (not necessarily in that order).
As far as trades go, it sure would be nice if the Packers could get Jason Taylor from the Dolphins. I don't think they need to go after Shaun Alexander, but it wouldn't hurt if we can get him on the cheap -- they do need another good RB in case Grant goes down.
